内容
The main difference between Chinese and
America eating habits is that unlike, where
everyone has their own plate of food,
in China the dishes are placed on the table and
everybody shares. If you are being
treated by a Chinese host, be prepared for a ton
of
food. Chinese are very proud of
their culture of food and will do their best to
give you a
taste of many different
types of cuisine. Among friends, they will just
order enough for the
people there. If
they are taking somebody out for dinner and the
relationship is polite to
semi-polite,
then they will usually order one more dish than
the number of guests (e.g. four
people,
five dishes). If it is a business dinner or a very
formal occasion, there is likely to be
a huge amount of food that will be
impossible to finish.
A typical meal starts with some cold
dishes, like boiled peanuts and smashed cucumber
with garlic. These are followed by the
main courses, hot meat and vegetable dishes.
Finally soup is brought
out, which is followed by the starchy
rice or noodles or sometimes dumplings.
Many Chinese eat rice (or noodles or whatever)
last, but if you like to have your rice
together with other dishes, you should say so
early on.
Christmas, annual
Christian holiday commemorating the birth of Jesus
Christ. Most
members of the Roman
Catholic Church and followers of Protestantism
celebrate
Christmas on December 25, and
many celebrate on the evening of December 24 as
well.
Members of the Eastern Orthodox
Church usually delay their most important seasonal
ceremonies until January 6, when they
celebrate Epiphany, a commemoration of the
baptism of Jesus. Epiphany also
traditionally commemorates the arrival of the
Three Wise
Men of the East in Bethlehem
(near Jerusalem, Israel), where they adored the
infant
Jesus and presented him with
gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. The
official
Christmas season, popularly
known as either Christmastide or the Twelve Days
of
Christmas, extends from the
anniversary of Christ’s birth on December 25 to
the feast of
Epiphany on January 6.
Christmas is based on the
story of Jesus’ birth as described in the Gospel
according to
Matthew (see Matthew
1:18-2:12) and the Gospel according to Luke (see
Luke 1:26-56).
Roman Catholics first
celebrated Christmas, then known as the Feast of
the Nativity, as
early as 336 ad. The
word Christmas entered the English language
sometime around
1050 as the Old
Engl
ish phrase Christes maesse, meaning
“festival of Christ.” Scholars
believe
the frequently used shortened form of Christmas
—
Xmas
—
may
have come into
use in the 13th century.
The X stands for the Greek letter chi, an
abbreviation of Khristos
(Christ), and
also represents the cross on which Jesus was
crucified.
