Building up a close relationship with friends in important in all cultures . But different cultures have different ways of socializing .
The Chinese love going to restaurants . Family , friends and co – workers all go out to eat as a way of relaxing . That is why there are so many drunken drivers in China , who could face criminal punishment（刑事事处罚）.
Although British people socialize by going out for dinner , most people meet in pubs . They go there in the evening and sometimes during the day . Most people order wine or beer . Going out for a drink with friends or workmates after work is particulary important British tradition .
But for the French , the place to socialize is in cafes . They are a central part of daily life in France and its culture . People will go to cafes at all times during the day . In the morning , people may go there to buy a newspaper and a cup of coffee . At lunch they may go there for something to eat . Then when it’s evening they may return to enjoy a glass of wine .
In the US , dinner parties are a common way for friends to spend their time together . One person will host a party by cooking a large meal for a group and the guests will bring drinks or small dishes like desserts .
