I am very glad that all of you will soon go to the States to study and work with Americans. We need to eat no matter where. So, as the first lecture in the orientation program, I’d like to talk about what Americans do in a restaurant.

　　In American restaurants, you are usually served tap water before you order. You may find the bread and butter is free, and if you order coffee, you get free refill.

　　Soft drinks are sweet, carbonated drinks like Coke. Hard drinks are alcoholics, like whiskey. They are served either on the rocks or straight.

　　Serving in the restaurant are large. If you can’t finish, ask the waiter for a “doggie bag”, so that you can enjoy the food later. Remember, you should always have a tip of about 15%on the table when you leave.

　　参考答案

　　我非常高兴你们各位不久将去美国，与美国人一块学习和工作。无论我们在那儿我们都得吃饭。所以，在情况介绍会的第一个讲座里，我想与各位谈谈美人在餐馆用餐时的一些规矩。

　　在美国餐馆里，通常在点菜之前你会得到一杯饮用自来水。你会发现面包和黄油都是免费的。如果你要咖啡，你可以免费续杯。

　　软饮料是指如可乐那样的甜甜的炭酸化合饮料。硬饮料是指含有酒精的饮料，如：威士忌。可加冰块或不加冰块供应。

　　餐馆里的菜量很足，如果用不完，可请服务员“打包”，这样你能呆会儿再吃。记住你得付大约15%小费。餐毕离桌时，放在桌上。
