Unit 6 Crossing Cultures 第3课时 Section A 2a-2d I.阅读理解 Different countries have different table manners. Learning them can help us behave properly when we travel or cat with foreign friends. In Japan, it's polite to say "itadakimasu" before eating, which means "I'm grateful for this food". You should not stick your chopsticks upright in the rice bowl, because this is a symbol of death in Japanese culture. Also, it's rude to point at others with chopsticks. In France, people like to take their time while eating. They usually have several courses and talk a lot during meals.It's bad manners to put your elbows on the table. You should keep your hands on the table, but not your elbows. In Brazil, people are very friendly and warm. They often talk loudly and touch each other while eating. It's polite to say "born appetite" before starting a meal, which means "enjoy your meal". You can leave a little food on your plate to show that you are full and the food was delicious. In Mexico, whenever you see someone who's eating, even a stranger, it's good manners to say “provecho”, which means enjoy. In Mexico, dining is a social occasion-lunches are seldom quick and suppers can last for hours. Before you get seated,wait until the host seats you.

Instead, salt should be placed on the table for the other person to pick up.
