Perhaps the biggest difference between Chinese and Westerners is not what we eat, but
w 小题1:we eat it. I’ve noticed that Chinese seem to eat the same food any time of day. To a westerner, this is     小题2:I could never eat rice or noodles in the morning.
Westerners also eat dessert after dinner and it is usually s 小题3:sweet like cakes, ice cream, or fruit pies. Dessert is often my favorite part of the meal, but u 小题4:it is not served in Chinese.
 小题5:difference I have noticed is that in Chinese restaurants, everybody at the same table eats the same food. This practice is actually more common around the world, in India and the Middle East for example, t 小题6:in the west where people order a different meal each. I quite like the Chinese way where the meal is s 小题7:. My only problem is with the chopsticks—more of the food ends up on the table than in my m 小题8:.
One thing that surprised me the first time I went to a restaurant in China was the size of the personal plates—they are so 小题9:. It makes sense, though. Chinese don’t need large plates because the food is served in bite-sized pieces that can go straight from the serving dish into your mouth.

解析

试题分析:本文叙述了中西方的饮食习惯，中国人一天中的任何时间都吃同样的东西，西方人具体时间吃的东西不同的。西方人正餐后吃甜点。西方人用很大的盆子是想让他们一次把所有的食物放进去。
小题1:when根据第一句“中西方最大区别不是吃什么”和下句“中国人一天中的任何时间都吃同样的东西”，可以判断出，此处填时间。“不是吃什么而是什么时候吃”。
小题2:why 由前句的内容得知，西方人具体时间吃的东西不同。可知“这就是我早餐不吃米饭和面条的原因”
小题3:something 根据逻辑意思，西方人正餐后也吃甜点，后面说甜点的内容。
小题4:usually根据前文的内容，逻辑上可知。
小题5:Another 此处说的是另一个中西方不同之处。根据本段大意可知。
小题6:though 此处前面说许多人同桌同吃，这在世界上许多国家都一样。后句说在西方每个人点不同的东西吃，根据提示字母t，所以判断是though。
小题7:served 注意词的形式。the meal is served是过去分词。
小题8:mouth 根据句意可知：食物撒在桌上多，吃在嘴里的少。
小题9:small  the size of the personal plates是个人吃饭用的盆子的尺寸，因此只能是big或small.根据后文说“西方人用大盆子”，可知此处填“小”。
小题10:room 整句的意思是“西方人用很大的盆子是因为需要有足够的空间让他们一次把所以的食物放进去。”故填room。
