Chapter 20 Chinese Welcome All Foreigners

You：Most Chinese are polite to foreigners. We Chinese are polite and kind to people from all nations, and we are pleased to welcome them to our country.

David：I agree, Chinese people are very welcoming to foreign guests. Do you think Chinese people treat all foreign guests the same?

You：Yes, generally speaking.

David：What about people with darker skin? In the United States, those people are sometimes treated unfairly because of their skin colour.

You：Sometimes Chinese people may feel curious towards black people because they do not have the same skin color as we do. They do not hold any ill will towards them. Most Chinese simply see the different skin tone, which makes foreigners seem interesting. In fact, Chinese people have been known as a friendly people since ancient times.

David：Very interesting. In that case, China will certainly be a great stage for the 2008 Olympic Games.
