How to behave appropriately on such occasions? Here are some of the useful tips:●It is inappropriate to ask for a doggy bag[剩菜袋] when you are a guest. Save the doggybag for informal dining situations.●It is best to order food that can be eaten with a knife and fork. Finger food can be messyand is best left for informal dining.●Be careful about ordering alcoholic beverages. Becoming tipsy[slightly drunk] or drunk isinappropriate behaviour at business dinners.●Do not smoke during a meal or when others are eating.●Sit up straight at the table. It makes a good impression.●When you are not eating, keep your hands on your lap or resting on the table (withwrists on the edge of the table). Elbows on the table are acceptable only between courses, not while you are eating.●Do not season your food before you have tasted it.●Never chew with your mouth open or make loud noises when you eat.Although it is possible to talk with a small piece of food in your mouth, do not talk with your mouth full.●Do not slurp[咕嘟咕嘟地喝]soup from a spoon. Spoon the soup away from youwhen you take it out of the bowl and sip it from the side of the spoon. If your soup is too hot, wait until it cools; do not blow on it.●If food gets caught between your teeth and you can't remove it with your tongue,leave the table and go to a mirror where you can remove the food from your teeth in private.●Eat rolls or bread by tearing off small bite size pieces and buttering only the pieceyou are preparing to eat. When ready for another piece, repeat the same process.●Engage in table conversation that is pleasant; avoid arguments anddisagreements.●You should not leave the table during the meal except in an emergency. If you mustgo to the bathroom or if you suddenly become sick, simply excuse yourself. Later you can apologize to the host by saying that you didn't feel well.●If you need something that you cannot reach easily, politely ask the person closest tothe item you need to pass it to you. For example, "After you have used them yourself, would you please pass me the salt and pepper?"●If a piece of your cutlery[西餐的刀叉餐具]falls onto the floor, pick it up if you canreach it and let the server know you need a clean one. If you cannot reach it, tell the server you dropped a piece of your cutlery and ask for a clean one.●If you or someone you are dining with is left-handed, it is best for the left-handed personto sit at the left end of the table or at the head of the table. This arrangement helps ensure that everyone has adequate elbow room to eat comfortably.●If food spills off your plate, you may pick it up with a piece of your cutlery and place iton the edge of your plate.●Never spit a piece of bad food or tough gristle软骨into your napkin. Remove thefood from your mouth using the same utensil it went in with. Place the piece of food on the edge of your plate. If possible, cover it with some other food from your plate.●Do not use your napkin to wipe your nose. If you wipe your nose, don't put the usedtissues on the table.●If you don’t like what’s being served, don’t say so. Just keep quiet and let it sit. Placeyour spoon or fork on the plate (if soup, on the soup plate, not in the soup).●Don’t put your used napkin on th e top of the table. Leave it on your seat where no onehas to look at it.●When confronted with a place setting of three or four forks and spoons that confuses you,a good rule of thumb is to start with the outermost utensil and work your way in witheach course. In general the dishes for liquids are on the right, while dishes for solids are on the left.●Cut only two to three pieces of meat at a time. Resist the temptation to cut up the wholething all at once.●Signal the servers that you are still eating by placing your fork and knife in an inverted Von your plate from the 10 to 4 o’clock positions.Follow-up Practice1.Listen to two people describing a typical lunch/dinner they have with their businesscustomers and fill in the blanks.(9:27)Speaker 1 (United States)For dinner, I’d like take our customers out to a nice steak restaurant . Generally, we’ll start with a cocktail. Recently, red wine has become quite popular before-dinner drink. When ordering, in addition to the main course and dessert, I like to order one or two appetizers .One of my favorites is deep-fried squid[鱿鱼]. Usually the main course comes with a soup and salad and one or two vegetables. I usually have white coffee with dessert although sometimes I’ll have a liqueur or some brandy.Speaker 2 (England) (10:00)We usually take visitors out for a “pub lunch”somewhere near the office. It’s an old-style pub and it’s very popular with visitors to England. The food, like most English food, is generally not very good, I’m afraid, but the “Ploughman’s lunch” isn’t bad. It’s cheese with bread , pickles and salad. It tastes delicious in summer with a pint of beer, especially if the weather is nice and we are able to sit outside.2.Listen to a passage explaining how the food is cooked and fill in the blanks.(10:25)Beijing Roast Duck is one of North China’s famous specialties. The recipe for this famous dish was first developed in the Ming Dynasty. The method roasting ducks ia as follows: First, ducks must be split open, dressed, scalded[burned with hot liquid]and dried. When roasting, it’s better use fruit tree branches as firewood to lend more flavor to the duck.Second, a steady temperature must be maintained in the oven. Ducks must be rotated so that they van be evenly roasted. It takes about 50 minutes to roast. When the skin turns crisp and golden brown, the duck is done. Then the duck is cut into about 120 thin pieces, each with both skin and meat. Diners dip each piece of duck meat into the sweet sauce placed in front of them. Then, wrap the meat together with stalks[梗、柄] of shallots in the thin pancake and eat it with your hands.3.Interpret the following sentences.1）A：你好，我想预订一张十人的桌子。
