Food and Drink 喝与吃
Do you remember the last party you were invited to? Was there as much food as drinks?
Well, for most Chinese students who are studying in the UK, the lack of food on social occasions is almost unbearable as they are used to a culture where food is an indispensable part of entertaining friends socially.
However, Britain is very much a drinking culture where people are quite used to the idea of having just a drink in their hand while socializing.
Listen to Lily’s report for the various reasons why the British tend to put the emphasis on drinks rather than food. Afterwards challenge yourself to a mini quiz.
