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
Chinese table manners
Chinese table manners of families have no intrinsic quality even there are different region and position. No matter three meals a day or guest’s arrival, always bowls with chopsticks, food with soup. There is no rule for how to put the tableware. What people care about more are not the gorgeous tableware but the sumptuous food. People’s dining position reflects the most obvious etiquette of Chinese table manners. In ancient society, men are supreme, and women are not allowed to sit with men on the same table. Although this is modern society, this kind of ancient etiquette still remains. Today in China, the phenomenon that men sit on the table before women can be found everywhere. The master of a family usually sits on the first-class seat. The first-class seat is usually near the interior of a room facing to the door. Once there is a guest, the master will offer the first-class seat to the guest politely. If it is an ordinary meal of family, families should start after the elder. If there is a guest, the master offer the food to the guest is essential from the beginning to the end. And the tradition of urging others to drink is also a special phenomenon.
Even there is no official “table manners’ in china, while there is “eating behavior”. Once there is “eating behavior”, there must be some eating manners up to standard.
Here are some characteristics on Chinese eating:
a. Keep your eyes on the meal, especially at the beginning of the meal.
b. When eating, keep your bodies forward, and face to your food.
c. It is allowed to spit the bone on the tables.
d. When chewing, it is allowed to make some rhythmical noisy of chewing.
e. Traditional Chinese meal doesn’t need the public chopsticks.
f. Traditional Chinese meal doesn’t have the sweet snacks after meal.
有英文翻译关于进餐礼仪的一段话
英国家庭素有“把餐桌当成课堂”的传统:从孩子上餐桌的第一天起,家长就开始对其进行有形或无形的'“进餐教育”,目的是帮助孩子养成良好的用餐习惯,学会
良好的进餐礼仪,具备各种值得称道的素质或性格。
英国人平时谈吐语言中,“请”与“谢谢”非常普遍,即使家庭中也是如此。父母子女同桌吃饭时,父亲叫儿子把桌子上那瓶盐、酱油或其他东西拿过来,也得说声:“请把盐拿给我。”当儿子把父亲所要的东西拿过来后,作父亲的一定要说声:“谢谢”。夫妻、母女等之间也然。如若孩子在饭桌上向母亲要一片面包时,说“给我一块面包,”母亲会回答他:“什么,给我一块面包!”孩子得重新说:“请给我一块面包。”这些生活用语在英国是非常严格的。

英语作文 篇2
many college students say that they are facing so many pressures in their lives that they are on the go from morning till night. what, then, are the pressures on college students?there are generally three kinds of pressures on college students. the first pressure comes from the students themselves. in order to become top students and to win a scholarship, many students spend more time on studying but less time on recreation or rest.
the second pressure stems from their peer groups. finding that their classmates are staying up late, many students will feel guilty if they do something else. they think the only way to overcome the fear of being left behind the others is to study even harder. the last pressure derives from the competition in finding a job after graduation. there is a sharp increase in the number of college graduates in job markets in recent years, making it hard for college students to find jobs. many students believe that the more knowledge they learn now at college, the more chance they will have in finding a job in the future on the job market.
a certain amount of pressures is not necessarily a bad thing. it stimulates students to make continuous efforts with their studies. however, too much pressure is certainly harmful to one’s well being. college students ought to come to terms with themselves and the world around them. moreover, they ought to learn how to relieve themselves of unnecessary pressures in their daily lives.

Nowadays the examination is used as a chief means of deciding whether a student succeeds or fails in mastering a particular subject in most colleges and universities. Although it is efficient, its side effects are also enormous.
On the one hand, examinations lower the standards of teaching. Since teachers are often judged by examination results, they are reduced to training their students in exam techniques. No subjects can.be taught successfully with intend to take.examinations. On the other hand, the most undesirable effect is that examinations encourage bad study habits. A the examinations cores
the only criterion for his academic performance students driven to memorize mechanically rather than to think creatively.
In fact, few of us admit that examinations can contribute anything really important to the students’ academic development. If that is the case, why cannot we make a change and devise something more efficient and reliable than examinations?

英语作文 篇5
not until i became a high-schooler did i begin to know the importance of family planning. it hap merely because his large yet impoverished family could no longer afford his large yet impoverished family could no longer afford his schooling. though a little sad over what had happened to my friend, i was thus awakened to the importance of family planning. even how, i am still a zealous champion of this program.
as i see it, family planning can do us a world of good. first of all, it can reduce the expenditure and at the same time increase the happiness of the family. through family planning, instead of spending most of their time making money to keep a large family going, the parents, less troubled by economic problems, can devote themselves to the care and upbringing of their children and prepare them for their future careers.
moreover, the harmonious atmosphere created by family planning will make family members feel secure and thrice blessed. second, family planning can help children become more mature, both mentally and physically. once the children growing up in a small family begin to receive education, they will know how to better behave themselves and do well in school.
finally, stronger and more prosperous. there is no denying the fact that the population problem is getting more and more serious in taiwan where the population this state of affairs continues without any remedial measures to fight it, some day the fruit of our economic growth will all be lost as a result of the ever-rising birth rate.

英语作文 篇8
Scores are undoubtedly important for students. So today when I saw the score, 96,on my Chinese test paper, my happiness was beyond words. I believed that mum would also be very happy and perhaps she would reward me.
As soon as I got home, I raised the test paper before mum and said proudly, "Mum, look at my score!" Out of my expectation,Mum said calmly, "Good, but I hope you can find out the reason why four points were taken away." Hearing the words, I stood in amazement at first. Then I understood Mum’s words and nodded with all my strength.
Then Iunderstood that the most important thing that we get from examinations is not whether we have got high scores but whether we know what we have grasped and what we haven’t.
分数是对学生无疑是重要的。所以今天当我看到比分,96,我的.中国试纸,我幸福得无以言表。我相信,妈妈也很高兴,也许她会奖励我。
当我回到家,我提出的试纸妈妈之前和自豪地说,“妈妈,看我的成绩!”出乎我的意料,妈妈平静地说,“好,但我希望你能找出为什么四点被带走的原因。”听到这句话,我愣住了在第一。然后,我明白了妈妈的话,点了点头用我所有的力量。
当我明白了我们从考试获得的最重要的东西不是我们是否得到了高分,而是我们是否知道我们已经掌握了什么,我们都没有。
