他们想尽一切办法,让我感到宾至如归
Dear Laura,
Thanks for your message. Yes, I’m having a
great time on my student exchange program
in France. I was a bit nervous before I
arrived here but there was no reason to be.
My host family is really nice. They go out of
their way to make me feel at home.
The grandmother knows that I miss Chinese
food a lot. So she actually learned how to
make Chinese food! She also has a teenage
granddaughter about my age. She’s really
kind and she always talks to me in French to
help me practice.
You wouldn’t believe how quickly my French
has improved because of that. I’m very
comfortable speaking French now. Although I
still make lots of mistakes, it doesn’t worry
me like it used to. My biggest challenge is
learning how to behave at the dinner table. As
you can imagine (想象) , things are very
different from the way they are at home.
For example, you’re not supposed to put
your bread on your plate. You’re supposed
to put it on the table! I thought that was
pretty strange at first, but now I’m used to
it.
Another example is that you’re not supposed
to eat anything with your hands
except (除…之外) bread, not even fruit.
You have to cut it up and eat it with a fork.
Another thing is it’s impolite to say that
you’re full. If you don’t want any more
food, you should just say, “That was
delicious.”
Also, you’re not supposed to put your elbows
on the table. I have to say that I find it
difficult to remember everything, but I’m
gradually getting used to it (渐渐习惯了) . I
don’t find French customs so strange
anymore.
I’ll write again soon and tell you more about
my life in France. Hope you’re having a good
school year.
Yours,
Lin Yue

Better to know while being an
exchange student in China
Talking about eating habit, unlike the West,
where everyone has their own plate of food, in
China the dishes are placed on the table and
everybody shares.
Chinese are very proud of their
culture of cuisine and will do their
best to show their hospitality.
And sometimes the host will serve
some dishes with his or her own
chopsticks to guests to show his or her
hospitality. This is a sign of politeness.
The appropriate thing to do would be
to eat the whatever-it-is
and say how yummy it is.
If you feel uncomfortable with this, you
can just say a polite "thank you" and
leave the food there. There some other
rules that are suggested you follow to
make your stay in China happier,
though you will be forgiven if you have
no idea of what they are.
a. Never stick your chopsticks upright
in the rice bowl, lay them on your dish
instead. Otherwise, it is deemed
extremely impolite to the host and
seniors present. The reason for this is
that when somebody
dies, the shrine to them
contains a bowl of sand
or rice with two sticks of incense
stuck upright in it. So if you stick
your chopsticks in the rice bowl, it
looks like the shrine and is
equivalent to wishing death upon a
person at the table.
b. Make sure the spout of the teapot is
not facing anyone. It is impolite to set
the teapot down where the spout is
facing towards somebody. The spout
should always be directed
to where nobody is sitting,
usually just outward from
the table.
c. Don't tap on your bowl with your
chopsticks, since that will be deemed
insult to the host or the chef. Beggars tap
on their bowls, and also, when the food is
coming too slow in a restaurant, people
will tap their bowls. If
you are in someone's
home, it is like insulting
the host or the cook.
d. Never try to turn a fish over and
debone it yourself, since the separation
of the fish skeleton from the lower half of
the flesh will usually be performed by
the host or a waiter. Superstitious people
deem bad luck will ensue and a fishing
boat will capsize if you do so.
This is especially true to southerners
in China (to be specific, such as
Guangdong, Guangxi and Fujian
provinces, etc.), since, traditionally,
southerners are the fishing
population.
