阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出一个最佳选项。

There are many differences between Chinese and Western eating habits. In the West，everyone has their own   26  of food. But in China the dishes are   27  on the table and everyone shares. If you are being treated by a Chinese host，there must be  28  food prepared for you. Chinese are very  29  of their culture and will do their best to show their hospitality (好客).

And sometimes the Chinese host uses their   30  to put food in your bowl or plate. This is a sign of politeness. The proper thing to do would be to eat the whatever-it-is and say how  31  it is. If you feel uncomfortable with this，you can just say a polite “Thanks” and leave the food there. Don’t   32  your chopsticks upright into the rice bowl. Instead，lay (放置) them on your dish. The reason for this is that when somebody  33  ，the shrin e (神祠) has a bowl of sand or rice with two chopsticks which are stuck upright in it. It is impolite to set the teapot down where the spout (壶嘴) is facing  34  somebody. The spout should always be directed to where nobody is sitting，usually just outward (向外) from the table.

Don’t hit on your bowl with your chopsticks. Beggars (乞丐) hit on their bowls，so this is not polite. Also，when the food is coming too  35  in a restaurant，people will tap their bowls. If you are in someone’s home，it is like offending the cook.
