There are many differences between Chinese eating habits and Western eating habits. In the West，everyone has their own of food. But in China the dishes are on the table and everyone shares. If you are being treated by a Chinese host，there must be food prepared for you. Chinese are very of their culture and will do their best to show their hospitality （好客）.
And sometimes the Chinese host uses their to put food in your bowl or plate. This is a sign of politeness. The proper thing to do would be to eat the whatever-it-is and say how it is. If you feel uncomfortable with this，you can just say a polite “Thanks” and leave the food there. Don’t your chopsticks upright into the rice bowl. Instead，lay （放置） them on your dish. The reason for this is that when somebody ，the shrine （神祠） to them has a bowl of sand or rice with two chopsticks which are stuck upright in it. It is impolite to set the teapot down where the spout （壶嘴） is facing somebody. The spout should always be directed to where
nobody is sitting，usually just outward （向外） from the table.
Don’t hit on your bowl with your chopsticks. Beggars （乞丐） hit on their bowls，so this is not polite. Also，when the food is coming too in a restaurant，people will tap their bowls. If you are in someone’s home，it is like offending the cook.

A
All around the world，people drink tea. But tea does not mean the same thing to everyone. In different countries，people have very different ideas about drinking tea.
In China，for example，people always drink tea when they are going together. The Chinese drink it at any time of the day at homes or in teahouses. They prefer their tea plain，with nothing else in it.
Tea is also important in Japan. The Japanese have a special way of serving tea called tea ceremony （典礼）.It is very old and full of meaning. Everything must be done in a special way in the ceremony. There is even a special way for it in Japanese homes.
Another tea-drinking country is England. In England，the late afternoon is “tea time”.Almost everyone has a cup of tea then. The English usually make tea in a teapot and drink it with milk and sugar. They also eat cakes，cookies and a little sandwiches at tea time. This is so called “Afternoon Tea” in Britain.
In the United States，people drink tea mostly for breakfast or after meals. Americans usually use tea bags to make their tea. Tea bags are faster and easier than making tea in teapots（茶壶）.In summer，many Americans drink cold tea. Sometimes they drink iced tea from cans like soda （汽水）.

People in different countries behave （举止） in different ways. What is polite or “good manners （礼貌）” in one country may not be polite in another. For example，Americans usually greet （打招呼） someone they know by saying，“Hi” “Hello” or “Good morning”.We Chinese，on the other hand，usually greet each other by saying，“How are you？” or sometimes “Have you eaten？”or “Where are you going？” But it is bad manners to greet an American by asking him where he is going or if he has eaten. In Italy （意大利） or in the south of France，a man will greet a woman by kissing （吻） her on the back of her hand or on both cheeks （脸颊）.But in China and other Asian （亚洲） countries，kissing on meeting someone is thought to be bad manners.
To take another example，belching （打嗝） during a meal in America is thought very rude （无礼节的） while in parts of China and the Arab （阿拉伯人） world，belching is a way of telling your friend that you are enjoying your meal.
There are also different ways of paying a visit to other’s home，standing in line，introducing （介绍） someone to other people，and giving thanks. For example，if an American brings someone a present，he hopes it will be opened in front of him. But we Chinese don’t usually open the present until he has left.
What are the rules （规则） of good manners then？Well，there are too many rules to be written down here. The most important one would be：When in Rome （罗马），do as the Romans （罗马人） do.

Frogs are animals that can live both in water and on land. There are more than 5,000 kinds of frogs on the earth. The earliest known frogs lived about 190 million years ago and the frogs today still look the same. Here are some fun things that you might not know about frogs. Enjoy!
·The Biggest and the Smallest Frogs
Some frogs can be very big. The biggest kind of frog is the Goliath Frog in West Africa. Its body can be nearly 30cm long, about the size of a large cat. The Gold Frog and the Poison Frog are the smallest frogs in the world. They are less than 1cm long. Though the Poison Frog is very small, it is not weak at all. It is dangerous. Any animal that eats it will die very soon.
·The Best Jumpers
Frogs are very good at jumping. They developed jumping legs so that they would not be eaten by other large animals. Using their big strong legs, most frogs can jump over 20 times their own length. It is like a person jumping over about 30.48m.The Australian Rocket Frog can even jump over 2m,which is 50 times its body length(5.5cm).That might be the reason why frogs are called the best jumpers on the earth.
·The Cryogenic Animal
Some frogs like the Common Wood Frog have a special ability to live in very cold places. When the temperature goes down, they become ice frogs.2/3 of their body water freezes. Their hearts stop, and their breathing stops too. You may think they are dead, but in fact they are not. Maybe we humans can learn the way that the frogs do for medical purpose.

A.20 B.30 C.50 D.190
57. The Gold Frog is one of the A. smallest B. biggest C. strongest D. weakest

Many large cities in the United States have an area called Chinatown. It was set up by people who came from China. For example，Chinatown in San Francisco，California，began in the 1840s.The Chinese immigrants came to America to look for gold. The area they lived in later became known as Chinatown.
Chinatown was also set up in cities in the western states of Oregon and Washington during the middle of the 19th century. Many Chinese immigrants in these areas helped build the first railroad system across the United States. However，after the work ended in 1869，many Chinese moved to the eastern and middle parts of the United States.
Chinatown can also be found in cities outside the United States. For example，the first Chinese immigrants in London arrived in the late 18th century. They were men who worked for the East India Company. Later，the Chinese immigrants opened small stores and restaurants there.
Today，many people visit Chinatown. It has a special Chinese gate and a walking area for also a place where visitors can learn more about Chinese culture and traditions.
