Please describe the character and universal values of Americans. I’m really curious about how your descriptions compare to those I've seen in China.

As an American, it varies a lot, especially from place to place (we’re a biiig country), but I’ll try to come up with some generally universal ones. We tend to make small talk to strangers throughout our day, whether it’s in the bus stop or waiting in line for something. The majority of us don’t read books in our spare time. Politics tend to be very polarizing/extreme, and we typically don’t bring them up in conversation so we don’t start arguments.

I thought Americans liked to read a book in their yard or in a cafe. My impression of Americans is that most people are friendly and knowledgeable.
