西方国家的餐馆

在西方国家的大都市有各种各样的餐馆。现代社会的餐馆服务趋向多元化,有简便服务、自助服务,还有规范服务。人们可以在餐馆就餐,也可以把外卖食品带走,到办公室或公园里吃。在美国“外卖食品”叫做take out food;在英国则叫做take away food。在快餐店,如果把食物带走要说Take out或Food to go;如果在店里就餐要说I ll have it here或For here,不用给小费。吃自助餐有两种,一种是挑自己喜欢的并请厨师帮忙放到盘中,之后计费;另一种是选好菜后投币取菜,两种形式都不需要给小费。餐馆就餐要注意菜单,菜单不同点菜方式也不同。一种是零点菜单(alacarte menu),顾客可以根据菜单随意点菜;另一种是固定价格单(fixed price menu),就餐需要交固定数额的费用。

美国人的喝酒习惯

和其他国家的人一样,美国人的喝酒习惯也不大相同。有的家庭从不请人喝含有酒精的饮料,有的则在饭前喝,饭后也许再喝点儿酒。用餐前,一般请你喝鸡尾酒。假如你喝不惯美国的鸡尾酒可要注意,如果你不想多喝鸡尾酒,尽可以明说。

酒也许斟在冰块上,加冰喝,或者不加冰,净喝。加冰的酒不像原酒那么强烈,尤其是冰溶化一点儿之后。你会发现美国人比其他国家人用冰更普通。如果你希望少加冰或不加冰,都不妨照直说。

葡萄酒在美国越来越受欢迎,但还不如其他国家普遍,喝葡萄酒的人不如喝啤酒的人多。如果有人用餐时给你牛奶、咖啡、茶(冰镇的或热的,视季节而定),甚至可口可乐,你也用不着奇怪。在餐馆里,通常供应白水,但你尽可以点自己喜欢的饮料。

关于麦当劳

相信许多人都品尝过McDonald s,如Where would you like to go for McDonald s?(你愿意去哪儿吃麦当劳?)但你是否知道McDonald s仙乡何处?McDonald,Macpherson,Mckinley,McArthur,...这些Mac或Mc开头的surname(姓氏),究竟代表什么?古代,人们有名无姓,随着社会的进步和复杂化,才开始采用surname。取姓的方法有多种,其中之一是取父名为姓。the Scots(苏格兰人)和部分the Irish(爱尔兰人)讲Gael(盖尔语),Mac(又作MCA或M)相当于英文的son,是“子孙”或“后代”之意。因而McDonald s即son of Donald,意思是“当劳的后裔”。

People extract themselves from routine life and fully express their feelings towards recreation.In a sense,sports are a heaven for people to escape from boredom and tension.Reading makes a full man.Reading serves to mold the readers temperament and make them have ease of mind.Surfing the Internet have penetrated nearly every aspect of modern life and are fast changing the way we live.
