1) As soon as the hostess picks up her napkin,pick yours up and lay it on your lap. Sometimes a roll of bread is wrapped in it; if so, take it out and put it on your side plate.
2) The Soup Course
Dinner usually begins with soup. The largest spoon at your place is the soup spoon. It will be beside your plate at the right-hand side.
3) The Fish Course
If there is a fish course, it will probably follow the soup. There may be a special fork for the fish, or it may be similar to the meat fork. Often it is smaller.
4) The Meat Course
The main Course is usually served by the host himself, especially if it is a fowl or a roast which need to be carved. He will often ask each guest what piece he prefers, and it is quite proper to state your preference as to lean or fat, dark or light.
5) Using Knife and Fork
If you have English and American friends you will notice a few differences in their customs of eating. For the main or meat curse, the English keep the fork in the left hand, point curved downward, and bring the food to the mouth either by sticking the points onto it or in the case of soft vegetables, by placeing it firmly on the fork in this position with the knife. Americans carve the meat in the same position, then lay down the knife and taking the fork in the right hand with the point turned up, push it under a small piece of food without the help of the knife and bring it to the mouth right-side-up.
6) Helping Yourself and Refusing
If a servant passes food around, he will pass the dish in at your left hand so that you can conveniently serve yourself with your right hand. Never serve yourself while the dish is on your right; it is then the turn of your neighbor on the right. It is polite to take some of everything that is passed to you. But if there is something you may not like, you may quietly say: "No ，thank you."
7) Second Helpings
The hostess may or may not ask if you would like a second helping, according to the formality of the meal. If she does and you accept it, you should pass your plate to her or to the servant with the knife and fork still lying on it.
8) The Salad Course
A salad is eaten with a fork only held in the right hand with points turned up. There is usually a special one for the salad, a little smaller than the meat fork.
9) Bread and Butter
Bread is taken in the fingers and laid on the side plate or the edge of the large plate, it is never take with a fork. Butter is taken from the butter dish with the butter knife and placed on the side plate, not on one's bread.

上星期六晚上，我所有的家人都在饭店吃饭。
我们在桌边玩得很开心。然而，一些坐在我们桌旁的青少年开始大声地笑。更糟糕的是，他们开始在餐馆里吸烟，这使我们很生气。过了一会儿，我站起来劝他们戒烟，举止得体。令我吃惊的是，他们没有听我的建议。相反，他们嘲笑我，说我太年轻太天真。
在我看来，在公共场合做这件事是错误的。我们国家的未来在于青少年，他们不仅要遵守规则，在公共场合也能为社会做出贡献。

The Role of Manners?
There is not much call for a complete working knowledge of table manners in America today. Many families only gather all at once around the dinner table at holiday feasts, and most restaurants are too casual to require, or even to allow for, more than basic good table manners. If, having dropped his napkin, a diner at a bistro were to attempt to practice proper etiquette by signaling a member of the staff to bring a fresh one, he would probably have to do without a napkin at all. Try as he might to make eye contact and indicate the nature of the problem with a subtle wiggle of the eyebrow and downward flicker of the glance, he is likely to succeed only in causing his date to think he is making a play for the server. Although strict good manners forbid placing a used eating utensil back on the table, the server removing a plate on which a fork has quite properly been positioned "pointing at 11 o'clock" might just plop that item back where it started, making more of a clatter than if the diner had simply done it herself.
From time to time -- perhaps at an important business dinner, a romantic date at an expensive restaurant, or a first dinner with the family of the person who may be "the One" -- it is necessary to display a more sophisticated knowledge of table etiquette. This is not difficult, once you have mastered the basics. Anyone armed with this core knowledge and the ability to adapt smoothly to the situation at hand will be able to handle even the most formal event. The goal is not, after all, to demonstrate utter mastery of the most arcane details of etiquette (which would be quite difficult considering the wide variations of customs in different cultures and from generation to generation)， but rather to behave with graciousness and poise at the table.
Mastering the Basics
Much of the difficulty encountered in learning table manners derives from the struggle to master the ritual handling of the various tools involved. In order to display the right social veneer, it is necessary to sit at the table with elegant ease and wield the utensils with aplomb. The diner who leaves the napkin folded on his plate until it obstructs the placement of his appetizer plate reveals his lack of training. The dinner party guest who observes with dismay the array of flatware on either side of her plate, need only take the time to learn the simple secret to the plan. There are, of course, a few tips and pitfalls to be aware of, as well as the occasional surprising item you can eat with your hands. Here is a quick guide which will help steer you through even the most formal of occasions.
篇五：中国餐桌礼仪英语作文：The Development of Table Manners in China 篇五
China has a long history and an excellent culture which is one of the most extensive and profound cultures in the world. Table manner is an important part of the Chinese culture. There is an old saying goes, “Bread is the stall of life”。 In fact, dining is not only to meet the
basicphysiological needs, but also key stepof social contact to close the relationship between people. Under different period and different social backgrounds, table manners are different. There are many reasons behind the difference.
According to literature records,eating etiquette has formed a set of quite perfect system in Zhou dynasty. In the Qin and Han Dynasties,
people in the dining, receiving guests and other daily activities, all sat on ground. It is not sit cross-legged but knees to the ground and soles offeet face up. You should keep the upper body upright, sit on your heels. In formal situation, the order of sat should be followed. The most
important guest sit facing south, than the host facing west, other guest and companies sit facing east and north. Women are not allowed to eat at table, except the major guest is female or the meal is set only for women. Before sit down to eat, you should tidy your clothes, wash hands and rinsemouth. This is not only health requirements, but also shows person's self-cultivation.
When it comes eating, only after the host signal to start eating, can
you enjoy your food. The eating order is drink after eating, meat after vegetables and fruits after meal. Tea is an indispensable step in Chinese traditional table.It isinformal if there is no tea on Chinese table. The
owner should pay attention to the situation in the tea cup, tea is to drink half a cup to refill. At the feast of the nobility, there would be play music or performance of dancing. And there are some tips you should remember when use chopsticks, don’t point at people with your
chopsticks. Don’t use chopsticks as fork or knife. When there are leftover on your chopsticks, don’t use it to pick food or don’t suck on it.
There are a lot of the same place between table manners in modern China and ancient times. But in some small places it has changed
because of western influence. The seating order is the same as western dinner etiquette, the first chief guest sit right to the host, the other guest sit in the host’s left or right of the first chief guest. Depends on the specific situation it is flexible.
The host should servemealstart from the guests on the right,the first is chief guestserve, than the host,first female guest, after the is not the same important as before.People sometimes use other drinks like wine instead of tea. Wine glass can’t be poured too full. It still maintaining the traditional order of food, serve cold food than the hot food, at last, there are desert and fruit. If there are whole chicken, duck, fish and other plastic dishes, the head of them should
nottail toward the chief guest. These programs can not only make the whole process of a harmonious and orderly, but also make the identity of host and guest clearly and easy for emotional expression and
communication. Therefore, the table manners can make feasts activities successfully.
The development and change of Chinese table manner has been influenced by western culture, which reflects the change of people's thought. In ancient society, it has the obvious superiority class, but the attention is being downplayed in modern. Modern table manners still retain many of the ancient customs. We can't just blend in with the world and forget to inherit our own traditional culture. Understanding and mastering table manners will enhanceour self-cultivation and contribute to social relationships with others.
篇六：中国餐桌礼仪英语作文：China Dining Custom 篇六
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

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.
篇七：中国餐桌礼仪英语作文：中国的餐桌礼仪 篇七
In China, as with any culture, there are rules and customs that surround what is appropriate and what is not when dining, whether it is in a restaurant or in someone’s home. Learning the appropriate way to act and what to say will not only help you feel like a native, but will also make those around you more
comfortable, and able to focus on you, instead of your interesting eating habits. 同其他国家文化一样，在中国，无论是在餐馆还是在家，用餐时也有很多禁忌。适当了解一些中国的餐桌礼仪，不仅能让你更加入乡随俗，融入其中，而且能让别人注意到你，而不是你特别的用餐习惯。
The customs surrounding Chinese tables’ manners is ingrained with tradition, and some rules are not to be broken. Failing to understand and follow all of the rules could result in offending the chef and ending the night in an unfavorable way.
有些餐桌礼仪是随着传统延续下来的，是决不能违反的。如果不了解这些餐桌礼仪并且破坏了这些规矩，到时可能得罪厨师，扫兴而归哦。
1、 The food is served via large communal dishes, and in nearly every case, you will be supplied with communal chopsticks for transferring food from the main dishes to your own. You should use the communal chopsticks if they are
supplied. If they are not or you are unsure, wait for someone to serve food to their own plate, and then copy what they do. On occasion, an eager Chinese host may place food into your bowl or on your plate. This is normal.
1、 食物是通过大的公用盘子盛装的，基本上都会提供公用筷方便你将食物分到你自己的盘子里。如果有公用筷子就用公共筷子分开食物。如果没有公共筷，或是不确定是否有公共筷子，可以先等待，看其他人是怎么做的，然后效仿就行。有时候热心的中国主人会帮你将食物分到你的盘子里，这很正常。
2、 It is rude to not eat what you are given. If you are offered something you absolutely can't stomach, finish everything else, and leave the rest on your plate. Leaving a little food generally indicates that you are full.
2、 分到你盘子的食物你不吃是很失礼的。如果有些食物你真的吃不下可以先把其他能吃的吃掉，然后把不想吃的剩在盘子里就行。通常盘子里剩下一点儿食物说明你已经吃饱了。
3、 Don't stab your chopsticks into your bowl of rice. As with any Buddhist culture, placing two chopsticks down in a bowl of rice is what happens at a funeral. By doing this, you indicate that you wish death upon those at the table.
3、 不要把筷子插在装满米饭的碗里。因为在佛教文化里，将双筷插在碗里是葬礼时的祭祀仪式。如果你在餐桌上这么做，意味着你希望餐桌上在座的人死掉。
4、 Do not play with your chopsticks, point at objects with them, or drum them on the table - this is rude. Do not tap them on the side of your dish, either, as this is used in restaurants to indicate that the food is taking too long, and it will offend your host.
4、 不要把玩筷子，比如用筷子指手画脚，或是在桌上敲击筷子，这些都是很失礼的，也切勿用筷子敲击你的盘子，这在餐馆里是暗示上菜太慢，很有可能会触怒待客的主人。
5、 When setting down your chopsticks, place them horizontally on top of your plate, or place the ends on a chopstick rest. Do not set them on the table.
5、 当你想放下筷子时，要将筷子水平放置在你的盘子上，或者将筷子搁置在筷子架上，别将筷子放置在桌子上。
6、 Hold the chopsticks in your right hand between the thumb and index finger, and when eating rice, place the small bowl in your left hand, holding it off the table.
6、 应该右手持筷，用大拇指和食指夹紧筷子。吃饭时，左手托碗，使碗离开桌面。
7、 Do not stab anything with your chopsticks, unless you are cutting vegetables or similar. If you are in a small, intimate setting with friends, then stabbing smaller so as to grab items is okay, but never do this at a formal dinner or around those who adhere strictly to tradition.
7、 不要用筷子戳东西，除非是将大片蔬菜或其他食物分开。如果是跟亲密朋友的小型聚餐，将食物用筷子分成小块方便夹取是可以的，但在正式宴会上，或是同桌人都非常遵守传统的场合千万别这么做。
8、 When tapping glasses for a cheer, be sure that the edge of your drink is below that of a senior member, as you are not their equal. This will show respect.
8、 举酒干杯时要确定你酒杯里酒的平面刻度要比在座的长者低，以显示你们的辈分不同，这是为了向长辈表示尊重。
9、 When eating something with bones, it is normal to spit them out onto the table to the right of your plate.
9、 在吃有骨头的东西时，要将骨头分离装在你右手边的盘子里。
10、 Do not get offended if your fellow diners eat with their mouth open, or talk with their mouth full. This is normal in China. Enjoy, laugh, and have fun.
10、 有时同桌的人嘴里满含食物跟你交谈时不要觉得被冒犯了。在中国这比较正常，因为人们的理念就是吃饭时大声欢歌，尽情享受。
