A report consistently brought back by visitors to the US is how friendly, courteous and helpful most Americans were to them. To be fair, this observation is also【C1】______made of Canada and Canadians, and should best be considered North America.
Dullness and【C2】______were common problems of the families who generally lived【C3】______from one another. Strangers and【C4】______were welcome sources of diversion, and brought news of the outside world. The harsh realities of the frontier also shaped this tradition of【C5】______.
Someone traveling alone, if hungry, injured, or ill, often had nowhere to turn except【C6】______the nearest cabin or settlement. It was not a matter of choice for the traveler【C7】______merely a charitable impulse on the part of the settlers. It【C8】______the harshness of daily life: if you didn’t take【C9】______the stranger and take care of him, there was no one else who would. And someday, remember, you might be in the【C10】______situation. Today there are many charitable organizations which specialize【C11】______helping the weary traveler.【C12】______, the old tradition of hospitality to strangers is still very strong in the US,【C13】______in the smaller cities and towns away from the busy tourist trails.
The casual friendliness of many Americans should be interpreted【C14】______as superficial nor as artificial, but【C15】______the result of a historically developed cultural tradition. As is true of any【C16】______society, in America a complex set of cultural signals, assumptions, and conventions【C17】______all social interrelationships. And, of course, speaking a language does not【C18】______mean that someone understands social and cultural patterns. Visitors who【C19】______to " translate" cultural meanings properly often draw wrong conclusions. It takes【C20】______a brief encounter on a bus to distinguish between courteous convention and individual interest. Yet, being friendly is a virtue that many Americans value highly and expect from both neighbors and strangers.
