The Chinese have a saying,“Eatgood things for breakfast, eat a big meal for lunch, but eat less at dinner.” ManyAmericans agree that one should start the day with a good breakfast, but their ideasabout lunch and dinner are different. Most Americans only give themselves a shorttime for lunch. So they eat a small lunch. After work they will have more time to eat abig dinner. Also a big dinner at home with all the family talking about their day is away to take a good rest after a long, hard day of work. Eating at restaurants is also different. In China, people like to talk and laughwhile eating. Very often you can hear people talking and laughing loudly, and they arejust having a good time. In America it is not like this. They want a quiet place wherethey can eat a good meal far away from the noises of the outside world. If someone istalking too loudly, the manager（经理） of the restaurant will look at him or herangrily. If some people are talking too loudly, the manager of the restaurant may comeout and ask them to be quiet.1题判断正误（“T”表示正确,“F”表示错误）；2题完成句子；3题简略回答问题；4题写下本文的主题；5题将文中画线句子译成汉语。1.
