J: Hello,everyonethe TV program that you are choosing is channel

V, welcome to our show—Talk About Yourself .you know ,different

countries have different manners, so today, we are talking about

the manners of the world.

J: Let’s welcome our members today-Peter,Tiantian,Angle and so

on…

First of all, let’s talk about the manners in France. hello,,do

you remember that we learned the manners in our English class

I still believe that table manners in France are strange. People

have to eat anything with forks and knives. Could you please tell

us more about the rules when we are eating meals in France

M1: If you are invited to a French house for dinner, first of all ,

you have to be there on time. If you are even ten minutes late,

you should call to explain. While eating , you should hold the

fork in the left hand and the knife in the right hand. If you

haven’t finished eating, cross your knife and fork on your

plate with the fork over the knife.

J：ok. i think we should obey the rules. and if we want to go to

our friend’ s home for dinner, what rules should we keep M1: you should send flowers on the morning of the day when you are

invited so that they can be displayed that evening. You are

supposed to dress well.

J: oh yes,I know a little French. I especially love flowers, and

French people want to keep their house very beautiful. I want

to know something we should pay attention to as well.

M1: Don’t begin eating until the hostess says “ bon appétit”.

You’re not supposed to put your bread on your plate you’re

supposed to put it on the table. It’s rude to put your hands

in your lap. You should keep your hands but not your elbows on

the table. You should finish everything on your plate.

J: we have learnt the manners of France,and we know their manners

are different from those in our country. If we don’t know them,

we could make mistakes, for instance,we usually eat fruit

without cutting first,but in France it is wrong,and we aren’t

used to putting the food on the table.

Table manners in Britain

J: as we all know , Englishmen are very famous for their politeness.

and ,just tell us what you know.

M4: In Britain , if you go to a formal meal, you should keep the

fork in the left hand and the knife in the right all the time. You should eat with your mouth closed. You can’t let any of the food

fall off the plate. You should use the knife only for cutting. You

can’t take the food across the table. You shouldn’t scrape the

plate. While eating , you should keep your elbows off the table.

You should put your napkin on your lap. Remember never speak with

your mouth full. You are supposed to cutlery from the outside to

the inside.

Table manners in the USA

J:as we know,the USA is a relaxing place to have fun,but there have

lots of manners or not let’s listen to the ,he will give us a

great answer.

M5:

Most Americans

enjoy entertaining at home, but they don't enjoy

formal dinners.

M6: Before arriving at your host's home, you may want to make sure

of three things. First, be a few minutes late, about five to

ten minutes if possible. Never be early, as the host may not

have everything prepared yet. you shouldn’t be more than 20

minutes late ,either. Your host may begin to worry about whether

you are able to attend the dinner or not. J:oh yeah,may in westen countries ,people are used to inviting their

friends to their home, but everyone should be a bit late.it means

that you know the manners,but in easten countries it is very

important to be on time,if you bring a gift to the host is best.

Could you please tell us what should we do if we are invited

to our friends’house in the USA

M5: , it is not necessary to bring a gift in most informal gatherings,.

If you like, you can bring some fruit or sweets, or, some flowers

for the hostess. These are thoughtful gifts. Do not bring

alcoholic beverages. Above all, do not spend a lot of money,

and never give money. As we say in English, "It's the thought

that counts you should wear comfortable clothing as well.

J: it is thought that counts,therefore,everyone should know what

things the host needs,and when you are eatting food,maybe there are

different rules from the following courtries,let’s listen to

M6: Your host in his home will usually tell you where to sit. At

formal gatherings, name cards are sometimes provided, or you will

be told where to sit.

When you are having soup, make the least noises. And you mustn’t

pick up your soup bowl so as to drink away the last drops of your

soup.
