Because of COVID-19, we have to keep our distance from (和……保持距离) others. But when we want to greet others, what should we do?
★ Do a dance
Do you know Liu Genghong? His workout routines (健身操) are getting popular now. Can you dance with him? When we meet our friends, it must be interesting to dance and it’s a good way of greeting.
★ Wave at the person
Who said waving is only OK when you are far from your friends? Waving at a friend in front of you is OK, too.
★ Give a nod (点头)
A nice head nod can be a cool way of greeting. Maybe doing it in front of a mirror a few times can help you do it better. Many people enjoy this way because they think it’s easy.
★Just say hello
We don’t need to touch others when we greet them. It’s OK to say hello to someone. Then we can ask some other questions, like “How are you?” or “What are you doing?”.
★Send a picture
It sounds funny. Why don’t we just talk to others when we stand in front of them? In fact, sending a picture on your phone makes greeting special and interesting.
★Share hand sanitizer (洗手液)
During COVID-19, nothing is better than giving others some sanitizer to make their hands clean. We can have small talk with each other at the same time.
