【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】 d. From then on, westerners use knife and fork as their tablewares. Tradition The different ethnic and national historical development process may result in different history and tradition. Thousands of years of Chinese traditional culture reflected in the Chinese Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism. As the core of Chinese traditional culture, Confucianism produces a profound and long influence on Chinese society. Confucianism has the traditional thought mainly emphasized “benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, faith”. Taoists advocated “customizations nature”, “pure” and he Buddhist is advocated “merciful Purdue beings” and “harmony”, “continued”. In the book Culture on Dinner Table, Mr. Yi Zhongtian said that the core thought of Chinese culture is group consciousness while the western core thought is individual consciousness. In sharp contrast, the western culture is a kind of “guilt” culture. They believe in god created man. The western culture, to be selfcentered, the boundary between people is clear and they do not allow mutual interference. This individual culture contributed to western table manners without sharing a plate of food. But Chinese love peace and quiet life in the forest, and in the dining room use cheap chopsticks as tableware. The chopsticks can also reflect Chinese collective consciousness. Westerners prefer to colonize in restaurants, use a knife and fork in the class. Knife and fork also can reflect individual consciousness, and noble west of life. From the use of chopsticks we can see the whole course of using chopsticks is collaborative work. If one of them is absent, the whole work cannot be pleted.

Different nationalities show different ethnic culture and custom on many aspects such as greeting, thanks, flattery, apology, or making telephone calls. For example, when Chinese meet acquaintance, they always greet each other by asking “have you eaten” or “where are you going”. While in western culture, it does not belong to the greeting but a real problem. They may think “why does he ask me whether I have eaten” “does he want to invite me to have dinner”. When Chinese invited guests to have dinner, there are so many dishes on the table, but host says repeatedly “there is nothing for you” “have a potluck” and similar words. The host also helps pick food for guests and try his best to make guests eat and drink more. Westerner often doubted about this phenomenon. It is not realistic behaviour that host said there is nothing when there are so many dishes on the table. And their meal is very simple which often with a small number of delicious vegetables when they treat others. Host just says “help yourself” and they never carry food to guest39。s bowl.4. Different table manners between China and West settingIn China: We prefer to the round table in the Chinese banquets. If there is just a round table in the family dinner, so it has no table order. But if the banquets are held in a restaurant or a hall and there are two or over two round table, then it must have the table setting order. The rule of table setting is that the top tabl
