人情的“密码”

The Secret “Codes” of Renqing

任何一个民族都有自己特定的风俗习惯、价值取向。这种风俗习惯、价值取向或比较文明．或相对落后，或文明与落后并存。中国人的人情大体属于第三种。

Every nation has its own customs and values, which tend to be either civilized or relatively ＂primitive＂, or a mixture of both types The Chinese norms of social behavior, commonly referred to by Chinese populace as renqing, largely fall into the latter type.
