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.

At the start of a meal, the Chinese usually say “manman chi.” 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 meals, they usually say “zhen hao chi! wo chi bao le!”

Language points

1. There’s a saying, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.”  

有一句谚语, “入乡随俗”。

在该句中，do as the Romans do的意思是“像罗马人那样去做”。其中，as表示“正如，像……”。例如：

While in the chemistry lab, do as I say, please. 在化学实验室, 请按照我说的去做。

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

正如我上封信提到的, 我将在6月份回到天津。

2. No one will be cross. 没有人会生气的。

这里cross是形容词, 表示“生气的”。

The old lady was really cross when the boy’s ball broke her window.

那个小孩儿的球打破了老太太的窗户, 她很生气。

All right, you two, don’t get cross with each other.

好了, 你们两个不要互相怨气了。

我们还学过cross用作动词，表示“横穿, 穿过, 交叉”。例如：

It took them two months to cross the desert.

他们用了两个月横穿沙漠。

She was sitting on the floor with her legs crossed.

她盘着腿坐在地上。

3. Here are some things (that / which) you may wish to know about eating together in the West.

当定语从句所修饰的名词或代词（先行词）指物并且该名词或代词在定语从句中充当主语或宾语时，应该用that / which 代替先行词引导定语从句，当that / which在定语从句中充当宾语时可以省略。
