What should you do or not do when you are eating in Britain?
The British generally pay a lot of attention to good table manners. Even young children are expected to eat with knives and forks in a proper way. They eat most of their food with a knife, fork, or spoon. The foods that they don’t eat with them include sandwiches and fruit.
Things you should do
If you cannot eat a certain kind of food or have some special needs,tell your host several days before the dinner party.

Always say thank you when served something. It shows you’re grateful.
You may eat things like chicken with your fingers if you are having a picnic with friends or on very informal occasions(场合). Otherwise always use a knife and fork.
When eating a bread roll, break off a piece before you spread butter on it. Eating it whole shows poor taste. On formal dining occasions, it is good manners to take some butter from the butter dish with your bread knife and put it on your side plate. Then bread pieces of the roll use this butter.

I think that a great friend is a great artist who can change my feeling about life greatly. When I talk about the person who influenced me most,I must think of my best friend quickly.
When I was in my university,one of my classmates sat beside me. His name is Wang Tao. He is my unforgettable friend in my life. He is good at study and handsome. Everyone knows that he is a genius(天才)of our university.
He is kind-hearted and is always ready to help others. But he doesn't like others to praise him,because he thinks what he did is common. There is an old saying:A friend in need is a friend indeed.Wang Tao sets a good example in many parts in my life.
I remembered that my mathematics was mediocre at that time,but he was excellent in solving mathematics problems. He often received high scores. Of course,I wished I could reach his level. Since we talked all day long,he was always patient and polite to answer my mathematics questions. Slowly,I made great progress in mathematics. I passed the examination finally.

He must have been completely lost in something he was reading because I had to tap on the wind-shield(挡风玻璃)to catch his attention.
"Is your taxi available? "I asked. He nodded,saying: "Sorry. I was reading a letter. "
"Letters from home always mean a lot. Is it from a child or maybe a grandchild?" I said.
"This isn't family, "he replied. "Although, "he went on, "come to think of it,old Ed was like Amily. He was my oldest friend. "
"I hadn't seen him more than once or twice a year over the past 25 or 30 years. He was a great guy, "the driver added."
"You said 'was'. Does that mean. . . ? "
He nodded. "Died a couple of weeks ago. "
"I'm sorry. Losing a real old friend is tough, " I said.
He didn't reply to that,and we rode on in silence for a few minutes before he handed me the letter to read. It began with the greeting "Old Friend, "and the first sentence reminded me of myself "I've been meaning to write for some time,but I've always postponed it. "It then went on to say that he often thought about the good times they had shared together.
The next paragraph of the letter said: "I began the letter with "Old Friend' because that's what we've become over the years-old friends. And there aren't many of us left. "
"You know, " I said to him, “when it says here that there aren't many of us left,that's absolutely right. Every time I go to a class reunion,for example,there are fewer and fewer still around."
"Time goes by, "the driver said.
We were getting close to our destination(目的地)so I skipped to the last paragraph. "I thoughtyou'd like to know that I was thinking of you. "And it was signed, "Your Old Friend, Tom. "
I handed back the letter as we stopped at my hotel. "I thought your friend's name was Ed,"1asked. "Why did he sign it Tom?"
"The letter was not from Ed to me. I am Tom.It's a letter I wrote to him before I knew he'd died. So I never mailed it."
When I got to my hotel room I didn't unpack right away. First I had to write a letter-and mail it.
