72    If you don not know the word for something in local language, or can not make yourself understood verbally, try drawing a picture, or pointing to an object.
     Avoid topics of conversation that you think may be sensitive.  73   .Feel free to show interest in the history and customs of the place you are visiting, but don’t ask too many questions about why things are done a certain way; you may offend the local people.
      74   Kissing on the street or in public places is unacceptable behavior and should be avoided. If you are unsure of how to behave, watch the local people and copy them---if they don’t behave in a certain way, you probably shouldn’t either.

We are now living in an information world that TV, cell phones and the Web are wide used. It seems that many people can not enjoy them without them.
