Please sit down and enjoy your meal.Just don't talk about it.
These are the requirements at a popular dining party that is known as "silent dinners".It encourages people who take part in the dining party not to speak for one to two hours and not to use electronic devices.Instead,the idea is to just on the food.
"Silent dinner parties are fast growing," said Honi Ryan,who has hosted 32 silent dinner parties in 11 cities across eight countries,including Germany,Australia and the United States."The way we communicate is changing so fast that we need to stop and think about it."
According to a 2013 nationwide survey,restaurant noise came in second only to poor service among customer(顾客) complaints.And 19 percent of diners who took part in the survey said noise and crowds disturbed them most while eating out.
Though silent dinners may seem curious,the idea is not a new one.Yogis(瑜伽信徒) have long enjoyed silent meals as part of a deepened practice.In fact,it was a trip to a temple(寺庙) in India by a man that encouraged one Brooklyn restaurant recently to add a silent dinner to its event programming.
"We'll make a small speech at the beginning of the meal to make sure everyone understands what is happening and ask them not to speak or use their mobile phones for at least an hour," said EAT Greenpoint owner Jordan Colon.And background music will be turned off,too.
"It's funny;when I first opened EAT,I didn't play music for some time and people had very different reactions(反映) to that," said Colon."Some people who come out to eat are ready to party,but it was so quiet without music.But I wanted to create an environment that makes you relaxed."
Although personal reactions to a silent dinner may be various,in general they are more likely to get into a lot of talk afterwards,said Ryan."At the end of the night people always have a lot to say about silence.But the most reaction is that there is always a good laugh."

When my family moved to America in 2010 from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our rules and culture. One of the rules is that young people are always s 1. to respect elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States.
In my village in China, people are p 2. of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most 3. (知识) and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.
However, in the United States, 4. (当地的) people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep t5. away from growing old by 6. (做) exercise, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got m7. because this caused them to feel they had 8. (失败)to stay young. I had told them something they didn’t want to hear. It taught me a lesson. Learning what you should and shouldn’t do in s9. situations may be difficult, but it is 10. (值得) the trouble if you want to understand another culture.
