Other people in a restaurant may call them utensils 1. 饭店里的人可能会把它们叫做器皿。
Utensils, "utensils." If you go to a restaurant and you sit down and you don't have a spoon or a fork or a knife, 器皿（utensils）。如果你坐在饭店里，你没有刀叉勺，
you would ask the waiter or waitress for some utensils, or you could just say, "I need some silverware." 你会向服务员要一些器皿，或者你就说，“我需要一些银器。”
A silverware tray 2, "tray," is a place where you put the silverware—you put the utensils, the forks, the spoons, the knives—in a drawer. 银碟（tray），是你放银器的地方——你把器皿、刀叉勺放进抽屉里。
And, usually a tray is like a little box that has holes in it for specific 3 things. 而且，碟子一般类似于用来放专门物品的有洞小盒子。
That word, tray, can also be used 4 to describe a small, flat piece of plastic or wood that you use to carry things on, like your dishes. 碟子这个字，也可以用来形容你用来端东西的、小又平的塑料或木质盘子。
Well, I get my spoon, and I go out and I get my newspaper, which, of course, is what has the news, the sports, and the international and national news. 嗯，我拿到了调羹，然后去外面拿报纸，那上面当然会有各种新闻——体育、国内外新闻。
Many Americans like to read a newspaper in the morning, just like people all over the world do. 和世界其他国家的人一样，很多美国人早上喜欢读报。
I "sit down at the kitchen table" and I read the paper. 我“坐在餐桌旁”读报。
Sometimes we call a newspaper just the paper. 有时我们把报纸简称为报。
Someone says, "I read it in the paper this morning," they mean the newspaper. 要是有人说“我今天早上在‘报’上看到的，”他们实际上是说在“报纸”上。
