Eating in western restaurants is a little different from eating in Chinese ones. It is 1 to understand the differences and to act 2 . As they say "When in Rome, do as the Romans do." When you first 3 the restaurant, you should wait for the waiter to show you to a table. Sometimes it is all right to find a table for yourself, but you should ask 4 . In a western restaurant, people usually ask for their own food or dishes and eat 5 they ask for. Western people don't put all of the food in the middle of the table to 6 together. One of the 7 differences between Chinese restaurants and western ones is that most Chinese restaurants aren't 8 , but in most western restaurants people there speak in a low voice. Don't shout to the waiters, 9 people may think that you are impolite. If you need help, you should try to ask with your eyes 10 your voice. It's better not to put up your hand, either. | |||

Not long ago, Richard Denniston found himself suffering the same pain that millions of other pet owners have faced. His little dog had a brain tumor (肿块) and would soon die. Like others who faced the problem before him, Denniston just wanted to end his pet's suffering. However, he took one step further. Denniston, an expert who studies animals collected a tiny skin sample (小块皮肤样本) from the dog and took it to his laboratory at Louisiana State University. Denniston started a new technology. Denniston's company will save pet's DNA for US $500, plus a monthly storage fee (保存费) of US $10, until cloning becomes a reality (现实). "It could happen soon if everything went on well," says Mark Westhusin, a professor leading a dog cloning team. Most experts put successful dog cloning a year to five years down the road. The cost may be expensive at first, but it would drop at last. Since Dolly the Sheep was first cloned in 1996, cattle, goats, mice and monkeys have been cloned in labs. Pets are likely to be next. |

One thing that British and Chinese cultures share is a love for fine tea. Today, when we think of Western tea culture, we often think of the English and beautiful china tea cups. Afternoon tea People believe that an English lady, Anna, first introduced the idea of afternoon tea. In the 18th and 19th centuries, the English ate only two main meals each day-breakfast and a heavy supper that would last for several hours in the evening. As a result, people often got very hungry during the long wait between these two meals. To solve this problem, Anna came up with the clever idea of inviting some friends to join her for an afternoon meal between four and five o'clock. This meal included cakes and sandwiches, and tea was served to wash down the food. In order to make this afternoon meal important, fine china cups and plates, and sliver teapots, knives, forks and spoons were used. Soon, afternoon tea parties became popular social occasions. Today, afternoon tea parties continue to play an important part in the social life in modern Britain. Will you come for coffee? Coffee also has an important role in British culture. People often use the words "Will you come for coffee?" to mean "Would you like to come to my home for a chat (聊天)?" Normally, several different drinks such as tea, hot chocolate or a soft drink like orange juice will be served as well as coffee, and you will be asked what you would like. However, you will not normally be served wine at a "coffee" party. Coffeehouses and the London Stock Exchange In the 17th century London, coffeehouses were busy and noisy places. Businessmen and bankers went to coffeehouses to do their business, as well as to drink coffee. In fact, the London Stock Exchange (股票交易所) is believed to have started from these coffeehouses. |

American eating is funny. People in America eat almost everything with a fork. And it seems that holding a knife in one's right hand longer than a few seconds is thought to be against good table manners. The system is that if it is necessary to use a knife, people take the fork in their left hands, and cut off a piece of meat or others. Then they put the knife down, transfer the fork to their right hands, and then transfer the food to their mouths with the fork. This is clearly funny, but it is considered good manners. There are several results of this system. First, if it is not necessary to use a knife, Americans don't use one, because this greatly complicates (使复杂化) things. Therefore, sometimes they will try to cut things like potatoes and even bacon with a fork. Second, since only one implement (器具) is being used, food has to be chased around the plate with the fork. Third, tables are usually laid with one knife and two forks. The outside fork is for the salad. There is no need for foreign visitors to follow the American system and try to eat the salad with only a fork, but if you do use your knife, remember to save it for the meat. |
