Jim: Tony, Lin Tao invited us to have dinner with his family. Tony: Really? I’d love to. Jim: Sure. In China people put all the dishes on the table and everyone shares the food together. Tony: That’s interesting. I hear they usually use chopsticks. Do they use spoons (勺子)? Jim: Yes. Tony: Anything else about the table manners? Jim: Er ... sometimes the Chinese will use their own chopsticks to put food in your bowl to show their politeness. Don’t refuse (拒绝) it. Tony: Jim: Just say “thank you” and leave the food there. Tony: Jim: Put them on the table or on your bowl. It’s impolite(不礼貌的) Tony: I got it. Thank you.
