will help you a lot.
    In Ghana, dinner is usually from four in the afternoon to six in the evening. But there are no strict rules
about time. Whenever a guest arrives, a family offers food. When you go to a home, the person who
receives guests takes you to the living room first. At this time everyone welcomes you. Then you go to
the dinning room. There you wash your hands in a bowl of water. All the food is on the table.
    In Ghana you usually eat with your fingers. You eat from the same dish as everyone else. But you eat
from one side of the dish only. It is not polite to get food from the other side of the dish.  After dinner,
you wash your hands again in a bowl of water.
    Most meals in Ghana have a dish called fufu. People in Ghana make fufu from the powder (粉末) of
some plants. Sometimes they cut the fufu with a saw (锯子) because it is very hard.  You must chew
fufu well, or you may get sick. You eat fufu with the fingers of your right hand only.根据短文内容,  判断句子的正（T）误（F）。
