Here I must put in a few words about my experience here in China. If I have ___36__ with a Chinese host, he always presses(硬塞给)___37__ food onto my plate as soon as I have emptied the previous helping(份额). That often makes me ___38___awkward(尴尬). I have to eat the food even if I don’t ___39___ it, because it is ___40___ manners in the West to _41__ one’s food on the plate. I have also ___42__ that when a Chinese sits at an American’s dinner party, he often ___43___ the offer of food or drink though he is in fact still hungry or ___44___. This might be good manners in China, but it is

certainly__45___ in the West. In the United States, it is___46___ to keep asking someone again and again or press something on him. Americans are very ___47___. If they want something, they will ask for it. If not, they will say, “__48__” Here’s an example: When an American is offered ___49_ by the host, and he doesn’t feel like beer, he will probably say, “No, thanks. I just don’t feel like it. I’ll ___50___ some Pepsi-Cola （百事可乐）if you have it.” That is ___51__ an American will do. ___52___are taught that “Honesty is the best policy”. But in some countries, courtesy(谦虚) might be more important than ___53___. So when I am here in China, I have to observe（遵循） the __54__ here. But when you go to ___55___, you had better “Do as the Romans do.”

　　Isn't it astonishing how much time we talk about food?"Have you ever eaten…?What did you have for lunch?" and so on．And yet when you travel from one country to another, you will find that people have quite different feelings about food．People often feel that what they eat is normal and what other people eat is strange．In England, people eat potatoes every day．In the Middle East, bread is the main part of every meal．Eating like so many things we do, becomes a habit which is difficult to change．Americans like to drink a lot of orange juice and coffee．The English drink tea four or five times every day．Australians drink a great deal of beer, and the French drink wine every day．

　　The sort of meat people like to eat also differs from one country to another．Horse meat is thought to be delicious in France．New Zealanders eat sheep, but they never eat goat meat．The Japanese don't like to eat sheep meat because of its smell, but they enjoy eating raw fish．

　　So it seems that although eating is a topic we can talk about for hours, there is very little common sense in what we say it．People everywhere enjoy eating what they have always eaten, and there is very little we can do to change our eating habits．

Which one is the meaning of "raw' ________．
