Read the following summary of cultural information from "Capítulo 3", then answer the questions.
Traditionally, Mexican women of the family have customarily been responsible for taking care of children and maintaining the house while the men worked outside of the home in order to provide for their families. Today however, this is no longer the only way that a Mexican family functions. It is more common now for either or both of the parents to work outside the home, given that many women have access to higher education and training, even in more remote parts of the country. Some of the fields where women are increasing their presence include politics, business, sports, show business, and journalism.
Many families in Mexico enjoy eating out together in restaurants. Men and women typically dress rather formally or in business casual attire when they go out to eat, especially for dinner. Very casual clothing is generally considered inappropriate for dinner. Proper etiquette is also important, such as keeping hands above the table, using knives and forks, and engaging in conversation. Chatting at the table in restaurants is an integral part of any meal, and people easily spend two hours or more at the table, eating and conversing. It is considered rude to leave immediately after finishing a meal, as people spend a long time while eating in conversation. When paying for a meal, instead of splitting the check, the person who invited someone to the meal will pay the bill.
