1--Show respect for the older people. Conventionally, before the meal starts, the younger members are supposed to address each one of the elderly members of the table one by one. Others are kept in waiting until the most venerable guest peoclaim the beginning of the meal and takes the first bite. Toasts also go to these men first before people can toast to each other.
2--Any other rules to observe in order to keep modest?
1--Yes, plenty of them. Don't eat fast! People usually keep their dining pace accorded with others. And all the dishes should not be eaten up completely.
2--Is it because that would give the host the impression that the food was insufficient?
1--Haha, I'm afraid it's simply because no one wishes to be too noticeable by finishing off the plate.
===================================
注解：
1.Show respect表示尊重
2.keep modest保持谦虚
3.insufficient不充分
===================================

1--对老人要表示尊敬。通常,宴会开始时，年轻的人要向在座的老人一一打招呼.其他人必须等最德高望重的客人宣布宴会开始并夹了一筷子，才可以开始吃。敬酒的时候,同时也要先敬这些人。
2--保持恭谦，还有没有其它要注意的地方?
1--多着呢。别吃得太快了。人们往往要跟其他人吃饭的进度保持一致。各个盘子都应该留下一点别吃完。
2--这是不是因为,这样会让主人觉得菜给的不够吃啊?
1--哈哈,我倒是觉得是因为不管是谁扫光一盘菜,都会显得太显眼了。
