    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    This statement is true because it follows the standard table setting etiquette.

This arrangement allows for easy access to both the glasses and the bread plate during the meal.

    Explanation
    Sending a thank you note to your host after a job interview dinner is considered polite because it shows appreciation for their hospitality and time. It also demonstrates good manners and professionalism, which can leave a positive impression on the host and potentially improve your chances of getting the job. Additionally, a thank you note allows you to express your gratitude and reiterate your interest in the position, making it a valuable follow-up gesture.

    The rules of etiquette will be the same in every country in the world.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because the rules of etiquette vary from country to country. Different cultures have different customs and norms when it comes to manners and social behavior. What may be considered polite in one country could be seen as rude or inappropriate in another. Therefore, it is important to be aware of and respect the specific etiquette rules of the country you are in or interacting with.

    When you finish your meal, push the plate away from you.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The correct answer is false because pushing the plate away from you after finishing your meal is not a universally followed practice. Different cultures and individuals may have different customs or habits when it comes to indicating the completion of a meal. Therefore, it cannot be stated as a definitive rule that pushing the plate away is the correct action.

  • 6. 

    You should leave your plate completely clean so the hosts will know that you loved the food.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Leaving your plate completely clean does not necessarily indicate that you loved the food. It is a cultural belief or etiquette in some places, but it may not hold true universally. People have different preferences and appetites, and it is not fair to assume someone's enjoyment of the food based solely on how clean their plate is. Therefore, the statement is false.

    When finished with a meal and leaving the table, fold your napkin and place it across your soiled plate. - ProProfs

    When finished with a meal and leaving the table, fold your napkin and place it across your soiled plate.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    When finished with a meal and leaving the table, it is not correct to fold your napkin and place it across your soiled plate. The correct way to handle a napkin after a meal is to place it neatly to the left of your plate or on the chair. Placing it across your soiled plate may create a mess and is not considered proper etiquette.

  • 10. 

    You are not allowed to sneeze in your napkin.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    It is not true that you are not allowed to sneeze in your napkin. In fact, sneezing into a napkin or tissue is considered good hygiene practice to prevent the spread of germs. It helps to catch the droplets from the sneeze, reducing the risk of spreading any potential infections to others. Therefore, the correct answer is False.
