【分析】
这是一篇介绍不同国家用餐礼仪的短文还原题，解题思路如下：
1. 先通读全文，明确文章核心是讲解各国用餐礼仪，帮助避免尴尬、愉快用餐。
2. 逐个分析空格上下文，匹配逻辑相符的选项：
第1空：前文提及用餐礼仪有重要规则，后文说了解贴士能让用餐顺利，此处需要引出“避免尴尬错误”的话题，衔接前后内容。
第2空：处于“筷子规则”板块，前文讲筷子摆放要求，此处需补充筷子使用的禁忌，符合该板块内容。
第3空：处于“手或餐具”板块，前文讲不同国家的餐具使用习惯，后文说“更愿意用手”，此处应填入某个国家不认可用餐具的内容，形成对比衔接。
第4空：处于“提出要求”板块，后文举例在葡萄牙要盐和胡椒是错误，此处需引出“要盐和胡椒这个简单请求”的话题，引出后文的禁忌。
第5空：后文是“the more comfortable...”，符合“the+比较级，the+比较级”的句型，此处需填入对应的比较级结构的句子。
【解析】
1. 第1空：前文提到用餐礼仪有重要规则，后文说了解贴士能让用餐愉快，D选项“Don’t get caught making an embarrassing mistake at a restaurant”（不要在餐馆犯尴尬的错误）承上启下，引出下文的礼仪贴士，故选D。
2. 第2空：该部分讲筷子使用规则，前文说筷子放下时要平行摆放，E选项“Never stick them upright in your food or cross them as you use them”（不要把筷子竖直插在食物里，也不要在使用时交叉）补充了筷子使用的禁忌，符合该板块内容，故选E。
3. 第3空：该部分讲餐具和手的使用，前文讲法国用双手持餐具，后文说“更愿意用手”，C选项“Mexicans consider it improper to eat with utensils”（墨西哥人认为用餐具吃饭不合适）衔接前后，说明墨西哥人更倾向用手，故选C。
4. 第4空：该部分讲用餐时的请求，后文提到在葡萄牙要盐和胡椒是严重错误，A选项“It may seem like a simple request to ask for salt and pepper at a meal”（吃饭时要盐和胡椒看起来是个简单的请求）引出这个看似简单实则有禁忌的请求，衔接后文，故选A。
5. 第5空：后文是“the more comfortable you'll begin to feel...”，符合“the+比较级，the+比较级”的句型，B选项“The more time you spend in any given country”（你在某个国家待的时间越久）正好构成这个句型，逻辑通顺，故选B。
