根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。
Dinner, for English people, is the richest meal of the day and is very formal (正式的) meal. Many people even
wear special clothes for dinner, so, if you are asked out to dinner, you must find out whether you are expected
to wear a dinner suit. When you get there and you find you are the only person in ordinary clothes, you will feel
unhappy and worried. Dinner is usually served at about half past seven. All the members of the family sit down
together and are on their best behavior (举止). The head of the family sits at the other. If there is a guest (客人),
he usually sits on the right of the lady of the house. If there are several guests, the most important one is asked
to sit there. While the meal conversation is carried on, you should try to get into conversation with the person on
your right or left, but you should not try to talk to someone who is long way from you.
