1. Who is the passage written for
2. Where might you see a passage like this
Do as the Romans do
We often say, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” So when you eat Western food, do as Westerners do. Here are some things that you may need to know about eating together in the West.
In some Western countries, lunch is usually eaten at about 1 pm. Dinner is served around 7 pm or even later. In Spain it is usual to have lunch at 3 pm and dinner at 10 pm!
At the start of a meal, the French say “Bon appetit”， and the Italians say “Buon appetito”. But there is nothing similar to say in English. “Enjoy your meal”is usually only said by the person who brings the food.
Knives and forks are used for most Western food. The fork is held in your left hand and the knife in your right, and the food is held with the fork and cut with the knife. Soup is eaten with a spoon. However, there is some food which you can eat with your fingers, such as chicken wings and
hamburgers.
＇
During the meal, you may be invited to serve yourself (usually the ladies before the gentlemen) by someone who says, “Help yourself. ” Or you will be served by someone who asks, “Would you like some...？”You can take it and say, “Thank you.” If you are given something you do not like, you can just say, for example，“I’m sorry. I don’t eat meat”，or “I don’t eat fish”. No one will be cross. If you are offered more food but cannot eat any more， just say, “No, thanks. It was delicious, but I’ve had enough.”
Remember that it is polite to say that you enjoy every dish when it is served, and that you have enjoyed the food at the end of a meal.
It is sometimes difficult to know when the meal is over. If
you are invited to dinner by Western friends, you will be expected to stay and talk around the dinner table long after the last dish is served, and it is not polite if you leave as soon as you finish eating.
The rule is: Watch the other people. Do as they do.

Complete the table with information from the passage.
Lunch: usually at about 1 pm.

In France: Bon appétit In Italy: Buon appetito
In England: Enjoy your meal
Most Western food is eaten with knives and forks.The fork is held in your left hand and the knife in your right, and the food is held with the fork and cut with the knife.
Thank you./I'm sorry.I don't eat meat，or I don't eat fish./No, thanks.It was delicious，but I've had enough.
People stay and talk around the dinner table long after the last dish is served，and it is not polite to leave as soon as the meal is over.
Answer the questions.
1．“So when you eat Western food, do as Westerners do.”
So what should you do
2．“At the start of a meal, the French say ‘Bon appétit’．”
What do you say at the start of a Chinese meal
I should eat with a knife and fork unless it is finger food.
The fork is held in my left hand and the knife in my right,
and the food is held with the fork and cut with the knife.
I should eat soup with a spoon. When eating chicken wings,
pears, and watermelon, fingers can be used.
Enjoy your meal.
3．“I’m sorry. I don’t eat meat.” When might you want
to say this
4．“No, thanks. It was delicious, but I’ve had enough.”
Do you mean you do not like the food
5．“It is sometimes difficult to know when the meal is
over.” How do you know that a meal is over in China
When you are given something you don't like.
In China a meal is over as soon as people finish eating.
No.
