Question

15．Different countries have different ideas about manners-how you behave when you are eating．In England，table manners are important．
★How to sit：you should sit up straight in your chair．It is not a good idea to lean（倾斜） forwards or backwards．When you eat，you should not lean towards the plate，but bring the knife，fork or spoon towards you．At the same time，do not put your elbows on the table．
★Using your fingers：English people normally don't pick food up with their fingers when they are eating main courses．If you are not sure，the safest is to use your knife or fork．There are，however，some foods that are usually eaten with fingers．They include pizza，sandwiches，burgers，crisps and fruit．
★Your mouth：it is not polite to talk with your mouth full of food，or to eat with your mouth open．And if possible，do not make any noises．Never lick （舔）your plate after eating．
★How much to eat：it is polite to eat the food that you have been offered，so a clear plate is a good plate．It shows that you enjoyed the food．If you can't finish everything and need to leave a little，that's also okay．You could say something like"that was very nice，thank you，but I'm just too full to eat another bite．"
56．How should a person sit in his chair while eating in England？He should sit up straight in his chair．
57．Does English people usually pick food up with fingers when they are eating main courses？No，they don't．
58．What food do Englishmen eat with their fingers？Pizza，sandwiches，burgers，crisps and fruit．
59．Is it a good manner to eat with the mouth closed？Yes，it is．
60．Why does the writer say that"a clear plate is a good plate"？Because it is polite to eat the food that you have been offered．．
