All societies have customs about how to eat politely. In English, We call these customs table manners. Based on culture and location, table manners can be quite different from place to place. It’s very interesting! Here are some examples:
In some cultures, it’s polite to serve food to guests, while in other cultures, people don’t do this because it makes the guests feel like they are being forced to eat.
In most East Asian countries, people use chopsticks at the table. In western countries, people usually eat with a knife and a fork. Do you know that in some places people simply use their hands to eat? And in some places, only their right hand?
In Russia, it’s polite to leave a bit of food on your plate to show the host that there was plenty to eat. But in India, finishing the food on your plate is considered polite. It means you enjoyed the food.
Throughout the world, you will find many different table manners and customs. So when you visit another place or another country, take the time to learn the local customs and manners. Remember, _______________________.

As we know, there are differences between western culture and Chinese culture. We can see differences when we pay attention to the way words are used. Let’s look at the words about animals and plants .Most expressions in Chinese about the dog, for example, a homeless dog, a mad dog, a running dog and a dog catching a mouse, have negative meanings. But in western countries, dogs are thought to be honest and good friends of humans. In English, people use the dog to describe positive actions. For example, you are a lucky dog means you are a lucky person. And every dog has its day means each person has good luck sometimes. To describe a person’s serious illness, they say sick as a dog. The word dog-tired means very tired. However, Chinese love cats very much. But in western culture, cat is often used to describe a woman who is cruel.
The rose is regarded as a symbol of love in both China and some western countries. People think the rose means love, peace, courage and friendship. And the rose is the national flower of England, America and many other countries.
The words about plants and animals are used in positive or negative ways in different cultures. We can learn about many differences in cultures by comparing how some words are used.

British people usually say hello or nice to meet you and shake your hand when they meet you for the first time. They only greet relatives or close friends with a kiss. They like to start a conversation with subjects like the weather , holidays, music or books. They avoid talking about age, weight, or money. British people think it is rude to push in before others. They always queue. They say “sorry” if they bump into you in the street. When they want you to move they say “excuse me”. They do not like to shout or laugh loudly in public . British people are very polite at home too. They say “please” or “thank you” all the time. “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” When we are in a strange place, we should do as the local people do.
Step 6 :Discuss in groups and talk about Chinese manners.
