【英语时差8,16】如何招待英国客人-下(在线收听

Helen: One thing about sport is that a lot of British people are keen football fans and they can be knowledgeable about the Premier League. But they may not know much about football teams or leagues in other countries.Also in China, young people love basketball and the NBA, but it's not very popular in the UK. Some people are not interested in sports so maybe you can talk about hobbies or holidays people went on. And when you're chatting to a friend, it's really good to talk about a variety of subjects, things that people are interested in or have experienced themselves. Don't worry if your English isn't perfect, the important thing is about having a good time with a real Chinese family. There're so many Chinese restaurants in England, and it's a very,very popular type of meal for people to go and have in a restaurant. I should think most English people would be very very pleased to have let's say a proper home-cooked Chinese meal. Helen: It's true, Chinese food is now the second most popular takeaway food in the UK.And in order to make sure your guest will enjoy the food, it's a good idea to ask them what kind of things they like or don't like before they come.
