Question

It’s never pleasant to stand in a crowded subway train. To make it worse, there’s often someone next to you eating loudly.

Eating and drinking is not rare(罕見(jiàn)的) among Chinese passengers. They may do this to save time, but the smell and noise annoys（打擾） others.

To change this, the Beijing municipal government is thinking about banning people from eating and drinking on the subway. Those who break the rule could face a fine(罰款) of up to 500 yuan.

Many people support the rule because they care for public manners in the city. Besides, eating and drinking on the subway is not healthy for both the eaters and the people around.

But others say that sometimes eating and drinking should be OK..

“If a little child is eating on the subway, how can you fine him 500 yuan?” said Jin Bo, a news commentator.

But he suggests that people start to pay attention to the issue(問(wèn)題).

“Eating [in public] is not only about ourselves. It annoys others. We should keep this in mind from a young age.”

Beijing is not the first city in China to fine eaters on the subways. People who eat on the subway in Hong Kong face fines of up to 2,000 Hong Kong dollars(1,625 yuan).
