[2] Now I'd like to take this opportunity to share their interesting history with you. [3] I think you'll agree that even an ordinary item used in daily life can have a fascinating story. [4] Although chopsticks originated in China, they are widely used in many Asian countries. [5] The first chopsticks were made from bone and jade. [6] In the Spring and Autumn period, copper and iron chopsticks came into being. [7] In ancient times, the rich used jade or gold chopsticks to display their wealth. [8] Many kings and emperors used silver chopsticks to see if their food had been poisoned. [9] Chopsticks are traditionally placed in brides' dowries,because "chopsticks" in Chinese is pronounced "kuaizi", which sounds like "get a son soon." [10] Many foreign friends try to use chopsticks when they visit China. [11] Even the former president of the United States Richard Nixon, used chopsticks at the welcoming banquet held in his honor. [12] As soon as he left his table, a foreign diplomat grabbed his chopsticks as a historical souvenir. [13] Remember to tell this interesting story the next time you eat with foreign friends and show off your knowledge. [1] 中国人每天都在使用筷子。 [2] 现在我想借这个机会和大家一起聊一些有关于筷子历史的 有趣故事。 [3] 我想你会赞同即使是日常生活中一件小物品也会有其引人 入胜的故事。 [4] 虽然筷子起源于中国，但现在很多的亚洲国家都在使用。 [5] 最早的筷子是用骨头和玉制成的。 [6] 在春秋时代又出现了铜制和铁制的筷子。 [7] 在古代，富人家用玉筷子或金筷子以显示其家庭的富有。 [8] 许多帝王用银制的筷子以检查他们的食物中是否被人投了 毒。 [9] 筷子在传统上是被当作新娘的嫁妆的，因为“筷子”在汉语中 读作“kuaizi”，听起来很像“快得儿子”。 [10] 许多外国朋友在访问中国的时候都使用筷子。 [11] 甚至是美国前总统尼克松在为其到来而举办的欢迎宴会上 也使用了筷子。 [12] 他刚一离开桌子，一名国外的外交人员就抓起了他的筷子， 把它作为了具有历史意义的纪念品。 [13] 下次与外国朋友吃饭时不要忘记把这个有趣的故事告诉他 们，卖弄一下你的知识。 第八节 文化差异与冲突 Cultural Differences and Impacts 1. Chewing with Your Mouth Open张开嘴咀嚼食物 This is the opposite of western culture. The Chinese appreciate that you make noise while eating. Westerners feel this is disgusting and shows a complete lack of manners. Chew with your mouth shut! 这与西方文化相反。中国人喜欢在咀嚼食物的时候发出声响。西 方人认为这种行为极为讨厌，是缺乏礼貌的表现。嚼东西的时候要闭 上嘴巴～ 2. Speaking with Your Mouth Full 说话时满嘴食物 This is considered quite rude when at the dinner table. Western children are taught from a very early age never to do this. 在餐桌上，这被认为是非常粗鲁的行为。西方人从小就受教导不 这样做。 3. Picking/Sucking Teeth 剔牙/吮牙 It is considered rude to pick between your teeth where others can see you. Western restaurants usually do not supply toothpicks, so it is sometimes hard to decide when to remove food stuck between the teeth. It is usually best to excuse yourself and go to the bathroom. 当着他人的面剔牙是很不礼貌的。西餐厅通常不提供牙签，所以 有时候很难决定什么时候该剔牙。当确实需要清理牙缝间的食物时， 最好是上洗手间。 4. Elbows on the Table手肘支在桌上 While eating you should be sitting up straight. Do not put your elbows on the table. Putting your elbows on the table will make you look like a farmer. 用餐时应该身体坐直，手肘不要支在餐桌上。把手肘放在桌子上 会让你看起来像个农民。 5. Spitting Food (Bones, Skin, etc.) Out of Your Mouth直接从嘴里 吐出食物(骨头、壳等) This is not done in Western restaurants. If you do need to take something out of your mouth, bring your napkin up to your mouth and place the item in it. 在西方的餐厅里你是见不到这一幕的。真要吐出食物的话，应该 把纸巾拿到嘴边，吐在纸巾上。 6. Picking Up Your Plate or Bowl端起碗碟 They think that only children do this. Don't lean over and slurp from the plate on the table either. Food must be transported from the dish to your mouth with a fork or a spoon. If you're nervous about using a knife and fork, buy a set and practice at home until you feel comfortable. 西方人觉得这是小孩子才会有的举动。也不要把嘴放在碗边直接 吸取食物。要用勺子或叉子把食物送进嘴里。如果你不习惯用刀叉， 那就买一套放在家里练习如何使用，直到运用自如。 7. Speaking Loudly大声讲话 All Westerners try to keep the conversation to their own table. If the whole restaurant can hear you, you are speaking too loudly and it will be considered rude. In fact, some westerners find it difficult to do business in Chinese restaurants because the noise level is just too high. 用餐时，西方人会把音量控制在饭桌以内。如果整个餐厅都能听 到你说话，那你的声音就太大了，这是很失礼的。实际上，一些西方 人认为在中国的餐馆里谈生意是件很困难的事，因为噪音太大了。 8. Passing Gas/Belching/Burping放屁和打嗝 This is considered rude in any situation. If you do need to pass gas, excuse yourself and go to the bathroom. Of course sometimes this is out of your control. If you accidentally pass gas loudly in front of others, you need to say, "excuse me" and quickly start talking about something to distract the people around you. DO NOT discuss any details about your gas, or any bodily function at the table! 在任何场合下放屁或打嗝都是不雅的。如果确定需要的话，要上 洗手间解决。当然也有失控的时候。如果不小心当众放了响屁，要说 “对不起”，而且要很快转移话题。千万不要大谈特谈“人之气”，也不 要在餐桌上谈论任何与身体器官有关的内容。 9. Cleaning Ears with Fingernails用指甲挖耳孔 This is not done in public. It shouldn't be done in private either! It's dangerous. Use a cotton swab! 千万不要在大庭广众下用指甲挖耳。在没有人的地方也不要这样 做～用指甲挖很危险，最好用棉签～ 10. Smoking吸烟 While others are still eating or even when everyone has finished eating, it is polite to ask their permission to smoke at the table. In many western restaurants, you will be asked if you prefer to be seated in the smoking or non-smoking section. If your host chooses the non-smoking section, you will have to excuse yourself from the table to smoke. 当其他的人还没有吃完，或者就算所有的人都用完餐了，如果要 吸烟的话，要礼貌地征得大家的许可。在很多西餐厅里你会被问到是 愿意在吸烟区还是非吸烟区就餐。如果主人选择了非吸烟区，那你想 吸烟时就要征得同桌人的同意到外面去。 11. Advice to Foreigners in China 给在华外国人的建议 W: Man, I can't get used to this way of shopping. I'm never sure if I'm getting the best price, and most of the time I get all tongue-tied when I start haggling. 天哪，我可受不了这样买东西。我总也不知道是不是买到了好价 钱，大部分时间都是刚一开口侃价舌头就不听使唤了。 C: You've got to shop this way though. If you pay the first price you hear, you're likely to get ripped off. 你必须得这样买东西。如果对方开价多少你就给多少，那肯定挨 宰。 W: I know. I've noticed that you always seem to knock off some of the price. 是呀。我看你总是能砍掉一些。 C: Don't worry. As soon as you pick up more of the language, there'll be no problem for you either. 别担心，你的语言一过关，买东西就不成问题了。 第九节 北京专辑 Beijing Special 1.
