     Eating  habits  are  different in different countries. The Chinese have  a  saying  "Eat good things for
breakfast, eat a big meal for lunch, but  eat less at dinner. " Many Americans think one should start the
day with a good breakfast, but their ideas about lunch and dinner are different.
     Most Americans only give  themselves  a  short time for lunch. So they eat a small lunch. After work
they will have more time to eat a big dinner at home.
     Eating at restaurants is also different. In China, people like to talk and laugh while eating. In America
it is not like this. They don' t like  the noises  of the outside world.   They  want a  quiet place  to eat. If
someone is talking too loudly, the manager (经理)  of  the  restaurant will look  at him or her angrily.  If
some  people are  talking too loudly,  the manager  of  the restaurant may come out and ask them to be
quiet.
