      The customs in different countries are rather different. If I have dinner with a Chinese host, he always
puts more food onto my plates as soon as I have emptied it. That often discomforts me greatly. I have to eat
the food even if I don't want to, because it is considered (認為) bad manners in the West to leave one's food
on the plate. I have already noticed that when a Chinese sits at an American's dinner party, he very often
refuses (拒絕) the offer of food or drink though he is in fact still hungry or thirsty. This might be good
manners in China, but it is not in the West at all. In the United States, it is impolite to keep asking someone
again and again or insist on his accepting something. Americans have a direct (直接的) way of speaking. If
they want something, they will ask for it. If not, they will say, "No, thanks." When an American
dislikes the beer served by the host, for example, he might say, "No, thanks. I'll take some diet Coca-Cola
(可口可樂) if you have it." That is what an American will do. So when you go to the United States, you
had better remember the famous saying: When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
