10．
Different countries have different ideas about how to be polite．In Britain，table manners are important．But how do you show good table manners in Britain？Here is some advice：
How to sit：You should sit up straight in your chair．When you eat，don't pick up the bowl．This is called very bad manners．
Noises at the table：It is never a good idea to make a noise at the table．
Using your fingers：62Usually we don't pick food up with our fingers when we are eating main dishes． But there are some foods such as pizza，sandwiches，chips and fruit we can eat with fingers．
Passing things：If someone asks you to pass something like the salt，only get it if you are the closest person to it．Never lean （倾斜，倾倒） across someone else's food．It's more polite not to use it yourself first---pass it directly to the person who asked，and then use it later．It's best to taste your food before you put salt in it．
Your mouth：63 It is not polite to talk with your mouth full of food，nor to eat with your mouth open．
How much to eat：It is polite to eat up the food that you have been offered，so a clear plate is a good plate．It shows that you enjoy the food．If you can't finish everything and you can leave a little，that is okay．You could say something like"That was very nice，thank you．"
