Many families eat out in restaurants or order takeout at least once a week. However, some people are worried about these changes. They think that eating too much junk food is bad for health. More and more people are now going back to traditional healthy food. They start growing their own vegetables and cooking at home using fresh ingredients. Chinese food is not just about taste—it’s also about culture and health. No matter how it changes, it will always be an important part of Chinese culture. 26．What did people mainly eat in the past?

First, you should sit up straight and don’t put your elbows on the table while eating. It’s impolite to do that. Second, you should use the forks and knives correctly. Usually, the fork is in your left hand and the knife is in your right hand. When you finish cutting your food, you can put the knife down and use your right hand to hold the fork. Third, don’t talk with your mouth full. It’s not only impolite but also unhealthy. You should chew your food slowly and swallow it before speaking. Fourth, if you don’t like a certain food, don’t make a face or say it’s terrible. Just leave it on your plate quietly. Finally, remember to say “thank you” to the host or hostess after the meal.
