介绍中国餐桌礼仪的英语短文

Answer 1

开始用餐,要讲究文明礼貌，要注意自己的“吃相”。养成良好的用餐习惯。一般应注意以下几点： 让长辈先动碗筷用餐，或听到长辈说：“大家一块吃吧”，你再动筷，不能抢在长辈的前面。 吃饭时，要端起碗，大拇指扣住碗口，食指、中指、无名指扣碗底，手心空着。不端碗伏在桌子上对着碗吃饭，不但吃相不雅，而且压迫胃部，影响消化。 夹菜时，应从盘子靠近或面对自己的盘边夹起，不要从盘子中间或靠别人的一边夹起，更不能用筷子在菜盘子里翻来倒去地“寻寻觅觅”，眼睛也不要老盯着菜盘子，一次夹菜也不宜太多。遇到自己爱吃的菜，不可如风卷残云一般地猛吃一气，更不能干脆把盘子端到自己跟前，大吃特吃，要顾及同桌的父母和姐弟。如果盘中的菜已不多，你又想把它“打扫”干净，应征询一下同桌人的意见，别人都表示不吃了，你才可以把它吃光。 要闭嘴咀嚼，细嚼慢咽，这不仅有利于消化，也是餐桌上的礼仪要求。决不能张开大嘴，大块往嘴里塞，狼吞虎咽的，更不能在夹起饭菜时，伸长脖子，张开大嘴，伸着舌头用嘴去接菜；一次不要放入太多的食物进口，不然会给人留下一副馋相和贪婪的印象。 用餐的动作要文雅一些。夹菜时，不要碰到邻座，不要把盘里的菜拨到桌子上，不要把汤泼翻，不要将菜汤滴到桌子上。嘴角沾有饭粒，要用餐纸或餐巾轻轻抹去，不要用舌头去舔。咀嚼饭菜，嘴里不要发出“叭叭”、“呱叽呱嘴，并把头向后方转。吃饭嚼到沙粒或嗓子里有痰时，要离开餐桌去吐掉。 在吃饭过程中，要尽量自己添饭，并能主动叽”的声音。口含食物，最好不要与别人交谈，开玩笑要有节制，以免口中食物喷出来，或者呛入气管，造成危险；确需要与家人谈话时，应轻声细语。 吐出的骨头、鱼刺、菜渣，要用筷子或手取接出来，放在自己面前的桌子上，不能直接吐到桌面上或地面上。如果要咳嗽，打喷嚏，要用手或手帕捂住给长辈添饭、夹菜。遇到长辈给自己添饭、夹菜时，要道谢。 吃饭时要精神集中，有些小同学在吃饭时看电视或看书报，这是不良的习惯，既不卫生，又影响食物的消化吸收，还会损伤视力。

Answer 2

China Dining Custom
Table Manners

The main difference between Chinese and western eating habits is that unlike the West, where everyone has their own plate of food, in China the dishes are placed on the table and everybody shares. If you are being treated by a Chinese host, be prepared for a ton of food. Chinese are very proud of their culture of cuisine and will do their best to show their hospitality.

And sometimes the Chinese host use their chopsticks to put food in your bowl or plate. This is a sign of politeness. The appropriate thing to do would be to eat the whatever-it-is and say how yummy it is. If you feel uncomfortable with this, you can just say a polite thank you and leave the food there.

Eating No-no's

Don't stick your chopsticks upright in the rice bowl.Instead,lay them on your dish. The reason for this is that when somebody dies,the shrine to them contains a bowl of sand or rice with two sticks of incense stuck upright in it. So if you stick your chopsticks in the rice bowl, it looks like this shrine and is equivalent to wishing death upon a person at the table!

Make sure the spout of the teapot is not facing anyone. It is impolite to set the teapot down where the spout is facing towards somebody. The spout should always be directed to where nobody is sitting, usually just outward from the table.

Don't tap on your bowl with your chopsticks.Beggars tap on their bowls, so this is not polite.Also, when the food is coming too slow in a restarant, people will tap their bowls. If you are in someone's home,it is like insulting the cook.

Drinking

Gan Bei! (Cheers! “Gan Bei” literally means “dry [the] glass”) Besides beer, the official Chinese alcoholic beverage is Bai Jiu,high-proof Chinese liquor made from assorted grains. There are varying degrees of Bai Jiu. The Beijing favorite is called Er Guo Tou, which is a whopping 56% alcohol. More expensive are Maotai and Wuliangye
