1. 饮酒 （Drinking）
• Drinking habits vary widely among Americans as they do among
people from other lands. Some families never serve any alcoholic
drinks, others have them before dinner, wine with the meal, and
perhaps drinks after dinner. You are more likely to be offered a
cocktail before dinner than wine with the meal. If you are not
accustomed to American cocktails, be careful, they are often quite
strong. Women as well as men drink them, but you should feel free
to ask for something less strong or a non-alcoholic drink if you wish.
In some homes, cocktails may be served for an hour or longer
before dinner. If you do not wish to have another cocktail, simply say
so.
• Wine is becoming increasingly popular with Americans but is still not
as common as in some other countries and not drunk as much as
beer. Do not be surprised if you are offered milk, coffee, tea (iced or
hot, depending on the season) or even Coca-Cola with a meal.
Water is usually served in restaurants without being ordered,
although you may certainly order anything else you prefer to drink.

2. 外出吃饭,谁付钱? (Eating out － Who Pays?)
If you’ve made an agreement to go out to eat with someone, you should be
clear who’s paying. If the other person suggests you have lunch with him or
her you might simply say something like this: “I’m afraid it’ll have to be
someplace inexpensive as I have very little money.” The other person may
say: “O.K., I’ll meet you at McDonald.”
This means that you’ve agreed that each person pays for his own meal, i.e.,
that you “go Dutch.” If the person says “Oh, no, I want to take you to lunch
in a little restaurant I like very much,” It means that the person intends to
pay the bill for both of you. If a person invites you to his or her home for a
meal, it’s understood that that person is paying; if you invite someone to
your home, it’s understood that you are buying the food. If you want to invite
someone out for lunch, you must also make yourself clear by saying,
perhaps, “I’d like to take you to lunch tomorrow at the Hostess Inn Coffee
Shop,” (meaning you plan to buy the food), or “Let’s have lunch together
tomorrow at Burger King. It’s on me.” American women used to expect men
to pay all meals, but today most women will pay for themselves. However,
you should always make your position clear. Being clear is the polite thing to
do; it is lack of clarity that causes loss of face in this situation.
