americans love all kinds of food, italian, chinese, mexican, greek, french, japanese and many others. the americans are in fact
“the un of food.”
to get familiar with the american eating custom, one must know two things. first, one must know the sequence5 of service. there is something special in terms of the sequence, or order, of dish service in america compared with ours. here is the order:
1. aperitif6—a small cup of alcoholic drink to increase one's appetite7. the host or hostess will ask: “do you like a cup of aperitif?”
2. hors d'oeuvre8—some tasty food offered in small quantities at the beginning of a meal.
3. appetizer —or called starter, it is a small serving of juice, fruit or seafood or something else, at the beginning of a meal, to stimulate9 people's appetite.
4. now the main course is under way:
a) soup—it is usually the first course in a dinner.
b) fish—it is usually served after the soup and before the entree10 in a formal meal.
c) entree—the third course of a meal, generally it is made up of a hot meat.
d) savory11—the last course in a formal meal, it is something pleasant to eat but with a salty rather than sweet taste.
5. dessert12 —sweet food served toward the end of a meal, usually it is a pudding, chocolate cake, or cheese and biscuits sometimes.
6. coffee—that's the last stage in a formal present-day european and american dinner. it's served either at table or in the living room.
in a family treatment, the above-mentioned no 1-3 stage may be omitted13, though no 4 is the essential part. and the main course generally includes no more than 5 dishes of nutrient14 food. ostentation15 is never under consideration.
another thing to mention is that serving oneself from one's own plate is popular in europe and america, except for the soup and bread which is taken and enjoyed according to one's need.
the second one we must know about the american eating custom is the taboos at table.
(1) don't circle your plate with your arm. if you do so, you will become the focus16 of the table. everyone would wonder: “is there anything wrong with the food?” this may give a false message that you don't like the food or something like that.
(2) don't push the plate back when finished. leave it where it was. do you mean to remind17 the hostess that you've just completed a labor?
(3)don't lean18 back and announce that “i'm through” or “i'm stuffed19.” just put the fork and knife quietly across the plate, that's all.
(4) don't cut up everything before you start to eat. cut only one or two bites20 at a time.
(5) never take huge mouthfuls of anything. do you mean to show how hungry you are? don't do that! be gentlemanlike or ladylike.
(6) don't crook21 your finger when picking up a cup or glass. that looks too affected22, far from ladylike!
(7) never wear too much lipstick23 to the table. it may stain the napkins24 and look gaudy25 and embarrassing on the rims26 of the cup or glass.
(8) it's never acceptable to reach across the table for anything (a serving dish, for example). if the item you want is not at hand, simply ask for the nearest person for help, like “mrs. smith, would you mind passing me the butter (or a dish)?”

high school in america， after middle school comes high school， which includes grades 9 through 12。 students are required to take certain subjects like english， social studies， math， science， and physical education。 in addition， they choose among elective subjects to complete their high school education。 electives include subjects in technology， music， art， and foreign languages。
each student in the school has their own locker for books and personal items。 this convenience saves students from carrying textbooks， and allows students a small space they can decorate with posters and favorite objects。
cheating in any form is strictly prohibited in american schools。 and in fact， high school students usually don‘t cheat。 a student caught in plagiarism， forgery， or copying another student faces severe discipline， even expulsion。
school activities each school holds certain yearly activities for the entire school body， such as homecoming， prom night， holiday celebrations， etc。
homecoming is celebrated each fall， usually on a weekend， and events leading up to it may last all week。 while homecoming is celebrated differently at each school， it usually includes a parade and the crowning of the homecoming king and queen， and ends with a football game and school dance。
the prom is a formal dance for students in grades 11 and 12， and is generally anticipated as the most important social event of the school year。 it can also be a time of anxiety， as boys have to work up the courage to ask a date to the prom， and girls hope the right boy invites them。 these couples dress in formal clothes — girls in long gowns， boys in suits。 some students even arrange a limousine and driver for their group of friends to arrive in style！ at the prom， students dance， have snacks and drinks， and chat。 prom usually ends with a prom king and queen being announced and crowned on stage before an envious audience。
besides hosting events for holidays such as the fourth of july and halloween， inspanidual high schools often have their own special events。 one day might be “inside out/backwards day，” where students and teachers should wear their clothes reversed all day， perhaps walk and speak backwards， and even go to classes in opposite order。 and some schools hold contests where， if certain academic goals are met， the principal will kiss a pig， shave his mustache， or dress as a woman for the day。
sports most high schools have at least one sports team that competes in local events， and all students are encouraged to be involved in athletics。 schools often offer football， baseball and softball， basketball， volleyball， tennis， and soccer。 some may even have sports like golf， swimming， gymnastics and cross-country skiing。
jobs many high school students have part-time jobs by the age of 15 or 16， some even earlier。 their first jobs are often babysitting or cutting lawns， but later they will likely get a job at a fast-food restaurant， video store， or clothing shop。
driving sixteen years old is legal driving age in most states， and students usually want to own a car as soon as they can。 some parents allow their children to drive a family vehicle， and may even buy a car as a graduation present。 others prefer that their sons and daughters earn enough to purchase a used vehicle。 regardless， many teenagers feel it‘s a necessity to own a car， and will do whatever it takes to be able to drive。
