    Table Manners in America

    美国餐桌礼仪

        吃的礼节在不同的国度存在着明显的差异。如在我们中国家庭做客，主人会盛情款待你；你吃得越多，主人就会越高兴，还不时会给你添菜斟酒。但如果你把国内这些“挺有礼貌”的习惯带到美国，就可能会被认为不文雅或缺少修养……

        When eating at home with guests or eating out，there are several table manners that are generally observed．

        Most meals served in American homes are served “family style”； this means that food is placed on platters or in large bowls，and passed around to each person at the table，Each person takes a little food and puts it on his or her plate，and then passes the food to the next person．It is OK to ask for second helpings．

    If you are treating your lady friend to a meal at a nice restaurant，it is polite to hold the chair for her while she sits down．Each person orders their own food and drinks，and it is polite to order items that are similar in price to the host’s order．Before beginning your meal，place your napkin over your lap，and remove it when the meal is completely finished。

    It is polite to wait until everyone at your table is served before you begin eating；in some instances，it is best to wait until the host begin eating．It is not polite to rest your elbows on the table．Only one hand should be on the table for most of the meal，unless you need to cut meat or pass something．Americans do not chew with their mouths open，or speak when their mouths are full of food．When drinking alcohol，it is impolite to drink too much or get drunk．If you do not drink，you will usually not be pressured to do so，and you should likewise not pressure others to drink with you．

        Notes

        platter n．大浅盘　　　　　　　　 napkin n．餐巾

    instance  n．例子　　　　　　    lap n．膝上

    elbow  n．肘部　　　　　　　　  alcohol  n．酒；含酒精的饮料

    likewise  adv．同样；也

    This year some twenty-three hundred teenagers（young people aged from 13 —19）from all over the world will spend about ten months in U. S. homes. They will attend U.S. schools, meet U.S. teenagers, and form impressions of the real America. At the same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.

    Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with George’s family. In turn, George’s son Mike spent a year in Fred’s home in America.

    Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months’ study, the language began to come to him. The school was completely different from what he had expected — much harder. Students rose respectfully① when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.

           Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.

           “Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.”

           At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize② American schools,” he says. “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two.”

    Notes:

    respectfully  adv. 尊敬地，谦恭地

    criticize  vt. 批评，责备

    Choose the best answers according to the above:

    This year       __ teenagers will take part in the exchange programme between America and other countries.

    A. twenty-three hundred       B. thirteen hundred

    C. over three thousand   D. less than two thousand

    The whole exchange programme is mainly to        __.

    A. help teenagers in other countries know the real America

    B. send students in America to travel in Germany

    C. let students learn something about other countries

    D. have teenagers learn new languages

    What is particular in America schools is that        __.

    A. there is some middle ground between the two teaching buildings.

    B. there are a lot of outside activities

    C. students usually take fourteen subjects in all

    D. students go outside to enjoy themselves in a car

    After experiencing the American school life, Mike thought        __.

    A. a better education should include something good from both American and Germany

    B. German schools trained students to be better citizens

    C. American schools were not as good as German schools

    D. the easy life in the American school was more helpful to students

    Microsoft founder Bill Gates said that he planned to give away almost all of his vast① fortune, largely to the cause of global health, during the course of his lifetime. With an estimated② worth of more than $ 40 billion, according to Forbes, the project will be no small feat③ for Gates. Having already provided the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation with $ 24 billion to address global health issues, Gates said that eventually his entire fortune will be put towards the cause except “a few percent left for the kids.”

    So what has made the richest man in the world to channel his resources so heavily into one interest? Gates believes that “the equality of opportunity” in which Americans take such pride needs to extend to other nations around the world. Improving the health of the populations, he says, has proven to be an essential method in helping poor countries to be financially④ successful. “National borders allow inequalities,” said Gates, “We all need to take a more global view, rather than just saying my country is doing well. We have to step up these health issues, knowing how few resources are going into them.”

    Gates said that both his parents set good examples to him as a child. His father, William H. Gates, was the head of the local Planned Parenthood, and his mother, Mary, volunteered for the United Way. As he gathered his fortune, Gates knew he would eventually want to give back as well, but he didn’t expect to devote himself whole-heartedly to one project until he was about 60.

    However, Gates, 47, began to question his ability to wait that long. “It seemed there was a real time urgency,” Gates said, “I started to think, how many lives could I save before then?”

    Notes:

    vast  adj. 巨额的

    estimate  v. 估计，估价

    feat  n. 功绩，壮举

    financially  adv. 财政上，金融上

    Choose the best answers according to the above:

    Why will Bill Gates give away his vast fortune?

    A. to improve the health of population in America alone

    B. to improve the health of population all over the world

    C. to avoid leaving his children too much money

    D. to spare the American government the burden of health care

    According to the passage, which of the following is right?

    C. Americans should devote themselves to certain projects

    D. Americans can be world-famous by giving away vast fortune
