中國(guó)傳統(tǒng)里有哪些表示禮貌習(xí)俗的?

You：I think you've heard this one before, you fightwith a friend over the bill in a restaurant.

我想你應(yīng)該聽(tīng)說(shuō)過(guò)這個(gè)，在飯店里你和你的朋友爭(zhēng)著付帳。

David：Yeah, that's a part of Chinese culture. Youcan see that in other cultures too, but not so muchin American culture.

是的，這可能是中國(guó)人的傳統(tǒng)習(xí)俗。別的國(guó)家也有這種習(xí)俗，但是在美國(guó)文化傳統(tǒng)里就不打常見(jiàn)。

You：My friends and I sometimes split the cost equally instead of shouting, "let my pay! ...No,let me pay!"

但我和我朋友有時(shí)候分?jǐn)傎M(fèi)用，而不是大吼：“我來(lái)買(mǎi)單!我來(lái)買(mǎi)單!”

David：In the U.S., it is common for people to split the bill after a meal. They call this habit"going Dutch". For example, after a meal, I would turn to you and say: "Let's go Dutch." Doyou know any other polite customs related to eating or drinking?

在美國(guó)，人們一般都是分?jǐn)偛唾M(fèi)。人們把這種習(xí)慣叫“go Dutch”。例如，在吃完飯后，我通常會(huì)說(shuō)“Let's goDutch.”。你還知道其他跟吃喝有關(guān)的禮貌習(xí)俗嗎?

You：In my hometown in Inner Mongolia, people like to drink a lot at mealtimes, especially whenguests are over. If you visit me at my place, I'll try my best to get you as drunk as possible.

在我的家鄉(xiāng)內(nèi)蒙古，人們喜歡在吃飯的時(shí)候，尤其是有客人來(lái)的時(shí)候，喝很多酒。如果你去我家玩，我會(huì)努力把你灌醉。

David：Really? That's very funny.

是嗎?那可挺有意思的。

You：Yeah, that's our way of being polite. If you drink so much that you pass out at my place,you would make my parents very happy.

是啊，這是我們表示禮貌的方式。如果你在我家醉倒了，我爸爸媽媽會(huì)很開(kāi)心的。

David：Very interesting.

真有趣。

You：I actually don't like it very much. It pleases the family but sometimes makes the guestsfeel uncomfortable.

實(shí)際上，我不太喜歡這樣。雖然主人高興了，但有時(shí)會(huì)使客人覺(jué)得不大舒服。
