Sample

When in China, do as the Chinese do!

Meals in China are different in some way from meals in the West. Here are some tips for you when you visit China.

What time are meals served?

Chinese meals are usually served at certain times. Breakfast is usually served around 7:00 am, lunch, 12:00, dinner, 7:00 pm. If you miss the time, maybe nothing will be left to eat.

What is usually said during the meals?

At the start of a meal, the Chinese usually say “bie ke qi.” When a new dish is served, guests are usually asked to eat it first and show their feelings so Chinese usually say “zen me yang? hao chi ma?” At the end of the meal, they usually say “zhen hao chi! wo chi bao le!”

Important phrases

1. When in Rome, do as the Romans do.

This is a proverb, which means "when in town, do as the Romans do", in which as is used as a conjunction to mean "as, like...". like:

While in the chemistry lab, do as I said, please.

As I mentioned in my last letter, I’ll be back to Tianjin in June.

Talk about the fact as it is.

Please tell me the meaning of the following proverb:

1) Like father, like son.

2) Do not cut down the tree that gives you shade.

3) No pains, no gains.

4) Once bitten, twice shy.

5) Love me, love my dog.

2. Here are some things you may need to know…

This sentence has the entire inversion structure: here + predicate + subject. Here is placed at the beginning of a sentence to attract other people's attention and is used to indicate people or things. like:

Here comes the bus.

Here are some flowers for you.

But when the subject of the sentence is a pronoun, the inversion structure cannot be used. like:

Here it comes.

Here he comes.

--- Hey, Nick. ______ comes the last bus!

--- Hurry up, or we'll have to walk home.

A. This B. There

C. That D. It

[Analysis] Examine the inverted sentences. Here it means, "The last bus is coming." In sentences starting with here / there, the subject is a noun, usually completely inverted. So choose B.

3. Dinner is served around 7 pm or eleven later.

serve v. Serve (food and drink); serve...meal

She served them beer and wine.
