Слайд 13The British place considerable value on punctuality. People make great effort
to arrive on time. It is often considered impolite to arrive even a few minutes late.
Слайд 14And it’s better to arrive a few minutes early for public
meetings, concerts, movies, church services and weddings.
Слайд 15If you want to visit someone at home, it is a
good manner to telephone in advance . When you visit people at home , make sure you are on time.
It is considered polite to give a gift to your host, especially if you have been invited for a meal. Flowers, chocolate, or a small gift are all appropriate. It will be nice of you to send a thank-you note or to make a telephone call after the visit.
Слайд 18I remember when Peter Pan asks the children what they want
more, TEA or ADVENTURE, they instantly reply- First TEA, please. Lewis Carroll made the mad tea party the central part of his novel «Alice in Wonderland». Miss Marple solves complicated crimes over a cup of tea. How can we talk about the etiquette in the UK and not to remember about TEA…
Tea is one of the most important parts of English life. There’s nobody in England who is indifferent to tea. The famous English writer George Orwell proposed his golden rules for brewing tea:
1. Tea should from India or Ceylon.
2. Tea should be brewed in teapot.
3. Tea must be strong.
4. Tea should be drunk from high cylindrical cups.
5. Before the milk is added to the tea.
6. Tea should never be drunk with sugar, it spoils the taste.
Слайд 19Social rules are an important part of the culture as they
passed down through history. The British have an expression for following these «unwritten rules»: «When in Rome, do as the Romans do».
