There are many differences between Chinese eating habits and Western eating habits. In the West，everyone has their own 36 of food. But in China the dishes are 37 on the table and everyone shares. If you are being treated by a Chinese host，there must be 38 food prepared for you. Chinese are very 39 of their culture and will do their best to show their hospitality (好客).
And sometimes the Chinese host uses their 40 to put food in your bowl or plate. This is a sign of politeness. The proper thing to do would be to eat the whatever-it-is and say how 41 it is. If you feel uncomfortable with this，you can just say a polite “Thanks” and leave the food there. Don’t 42 your chopsticks upright into the rice bowl. Instead，lay (放置) them on your dish. The reason for this is that when somebody 43 ，the shrine (神祠) to them has a bowl of sand or rice with two chopsticks which are stuck upright in it. It is impolite to set the teapot down where the spout (壶嘴) is facing 44 somebody. The spout should always be directed to where nobody is sitting，usually just outward (向外) from the table.
Don’t hit on your bowl with your chopsticks. Beggars (乞丐) hit on their bowls，so this is not polite. Also，when the food is coming too 45 in a restaurant，people will tap their bowls. If you are in someone’s home，it is like offending the cook.

All around the world，people drink tea. But tea does not mean the same thing to everyone. In different countries，people have very different ideas about drinking tea.
In China，for example，people always drink tea when they are going together. The Chinese drink it at any time of the day at homes or in teahouses. They prefer their tea plain，with nothing else in it.
Tea is also important in Japan. The Japanese have a special way of serving tea called tea ceremony (典礼).It is very old and full of meaning. Everything must be done in a special way in the ceremony. There is even a special way for it in Japanese homes.
Another tea-drinking country is England. In England，the late afternoon is “tea time”.Almost everyone has a cup of tea then. The English usually make tea in a teapot and drink it with milk and sugar. They also eat cakes，cookies and a little sandwiches at tea time. This is so called “Afternoon Tea” in Britain.
In the United States，people drink tea mostly for breakfast or after meals. Americans usually use tea bags to make their tea. Tea bags are faster and easier than making tea in teapots(茶壶).In summer，many Americans drink cold tea. Sometimes they drink iced tea from cans like soda (汽水).

People in different countries behave (举止) in different ways. What is polite or “good manners (礼貌)” in one country may not be polite in another. For example，Americans usually greet (打招呼) someone they know by saying，“Hi” “Hello” or “Good morning”.We Chinese，on the other hand，usually greet each other by saying，“How are you?” or sometimes “Have you eaten?”or “Where are you going?” But it is bad manners to greet an American by asking him where he is going or if he has eaten. In Italy (意大利) or in the south of France，a man will greet a woman by kissing (吻) her on the back of her hand or on both cheeks (脸颊).But in China and other Asian (亚洲) countries，kissing on meeting someone is thought to be bad manners.
To take another example，belching (打嗝) during a meal in America is thought very rude (无礼节的) while in parts of China and the Arab (阿拉伯人) world，belching is a way of telling your friend that you are enjoying your meal.
There are also different ways of paying a visit to other’s home，standing in line，introducing (介绍) someone to other people，and giving thanks. For example，if an American brings someone a present，he hopes it will be opened in front of him. But we Chinese don’t usually open the present until he has left.
What are the rules (规则) of good manners then?Well，there are too many rules to be written down here. The most important one would be：When in Rome (罗马)，do as the Romans (罗马人) do.
