英语作文:中国餐桌礼仪带翻译
In china, it is customary to pick up food for your guests, or anyone else dining with you. Whereas this may surprise foreigners, as dining is more individualistic in the West, it is a long-standing tradition and act of courtesy and consideration for Chinese people. It is seen to be taking care of others when you pick up a delicacy with your own chopsticks and put it in someone else's bowl. In this way, sharing of food is promoted and there is a closer connection to the people you are dining with. As people become more aware of hygiene, using one's own chopsticks is become less common, and most of the time, a communal server is used instead. However, this tradition is still being practised today, in most social dining events and even at home to show care and hospitality.
