享用晚餐时,英国人虽然不会像热门英剧《唐顿庄园》中那样人人身着晚礼服,但在去高级餐厅就餐时也会在穿着上颇下一番功夫。而美国人则可能穿一件休闲衬衫就出入高级餐馆。
3. When you don’t finish your food
饭菜没吃完时怎么办?
Britons wouldn’t think to take the leftovers home when dining out at a restaurant. They thinkthe food is somehow “tainted once they’ve poked at it with a knife and fork. In the US,wrapping it up to take home is a standard practice。
外出就餐时,英国人不会将剩饭剩菜打包带走,因为在他们看来食物一旦被刀叉“染指后便被“玷污了。然而对美国人而言,打包剩菜则是一种惯例。
4. When you get into a taxi
乘出租车时什么表现?
Britons will give the cab driver an address, then assume that’s it for the interaction until it’stime to pay. Even if they’re being taken in a roundabout way, they’re very unlikely to sayanything. In the US, however, most passengers think nothing of telling the driver what routeto take after telling him or her the destination。
英国人在告诉司机目的地之后就会秉承全程“零交流的原则,直至下车付钱才开口。甚至在看见司机绕路时,他们也会一言不发。而美国人则恰恰相反,大多数乘客都会在告诉司机目的地后,自己指挥行车路线;并且觉得这并无不妥。
