Imagine this: You’ve just arrived in China for the first time, and now you’re sitting with a group of Chinese people at a table, smiling at one another. What now? Don’t worry—we’ve got you covered with this “Chinese table manners course”!
Say bye to your usual knives and forks, and say hello to chopsticks! Chopsticks have been used in China for over 3,000 years and are very important to Chinese people. If a Westerner knows how to use them well, this will certainly help him or her get more points.
There are some chopsticks dos and don’ts. For example, you should never stick your chopsticks into a bowl of rice. Your chopsticks should always be placed next to your plate. Another important rule should be followed: Do not receive food with your chopsticks, but serve your bowl instead.
Besides, blowing your nose at the dining table is a big no-no in China. You should go to the bathroom to do that. Chinese people like to make an occasion(场合) out of a meal. However, when the waiter or waitress serves a plate of fruit, you know that time is almost up.
While Chinese dining manners might seem quite different from Western table manners, keep in mind that it’s all a matter of habit and enjoy instead.

B
China is a nation of etiquette(礼仪). Chinese people are among the most hospitable people in the world. If foreigners visit a Chinese family, they would be surprised at the warmth that they would receive as guests.
When you visit a Chinese family, the host usually makes tea for you. Then he will serve you snacks(小吃) like biscuits or candy. Someone in the family will also chat with you, never letting you feel lonely.
At the same time, other family members will prepare a meal for you. Chinese people treat (款待) their guests with a big meal. They always present more food than the guests can eat. And the guests must be the first to eat. Perhaps one of the things that surprise Western guests most is that the Chinese host likes to pick up food for guests, which won’t happen at Western tables. The Chinese family go out of their way to make you feel at home. As you finish eating, the host usually says, “It seems that you didn’t eat much. Please have more.” Although you tell them you are full, they still put more food in your bowl.
Being warm and hospitable has long been an important part of Chinese culture and tradition. As Confucius(孔子) said thousands of years ago：
To meet friends from afar
How happy we are!
