[01:48.75]READING TABLE MANNERS AT A DINNER PARTY
[01:57.52]People who go to a formal Western dinner party for the first time
[02:03.59]may be surprised by table manners in Western culture.
[02:09.15]Knowing them will help you make a good impression.
[02:13.90]Having good table manners means knowing,for example,how to use knives and forks,
[02:21.66]when to drink a toast and how to behave at the table.
[02:27.02]Beside your napkin you will find a small bread roll and three glasses
[02:33.26]one for white wine,one for red wine,and one for water.
[02:39.74]There are two pairs of knives and forks on the table,
[02:44.60]forks on the left and knives on the right of the plate.
[02:50.06]When you see two spoons,
[02:53.71]the big one is for the soup and the small one for the dessert.
[02:59.57]The knife and fork that are closest to your plate
[03:04.22]are a little bit bigger than the ones biside them.
[03:08.66]When you sit down at the table,you can take your napkin,
[03:13.99]unfold it and put it on your lap
[03:18.66]In China,you sometimes get a hot,damp cloth to clean your face and hands,
[03:26.03]which,however,is not the custom in western countries.
[03:31.70]Dinner starts with a small dish,which is often called a starter.
[03:38.04]Some people pray before they start eating,
[03:42.48]and other people may keep silent for a moment.
[03:47.32]Then you can say "Enjoy your meal" to each other and everybody starts eating.
[03:54.87]For the starter,which you eat with the smaller pair,
[04:00.22]you keep the knife in your right hand and the fork in your left.
[04:05.97]After the starter you will get a bowl of soup
[04:10.96] but only one bowl of soup and never ask for a second serving.
[04:17.12]The next dish is the main course.
[04:21.49]Many Westerners think the chicken breast with its tender white flesh
[04:27.65]is the best part of the bird.
[04:31.20]Some people can use their fingers when they are eating chicken or other birds
[04:37.68]but never touch beef or other meat on bones
[04:42.72]It is polite to finish eating everything on your plate,
[04:48.89]so don't take more food than you need.
[04:53.25]At table,you should try to speak quietly and smile a lot,
[04:59.13]but do not laugh all the time
[05:03.20]Most Westerners like soft drinks if they will drive home.
[05:08.56]Many of them drink white or red wine with the food.
[05:13.52]When drinking to someone's health,you raise your glasses,
[05:19.09]but the glasses should not touch.
[05:23.24]The custom of toasting in some parts of China is to finish the drink at once,
[05:30.29]but Westerners usually take only a sip.
[05:34.55]For drinking during a dinner,the best advice is never to drink too much.
[05:41.39]Table manners change over time.They follow the fashion of the day Besides,
