　　In China, people like to ask "Where are you heading for?" or "Have you eaten yet?" when they meet each other. For most of the time, they do not really want to know where you are going to or whether you have eaten or not. Actually, that is just a way to greet each other. Similar to western customs, when you start talking with a stranger, topics such as weather, food or hobby may be good choices to break the ice. You should be cautious when you ask private questions. But a chat about one's hometown or job can usually go on smoothly.
