We often say, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” So when you eat Western food, do as Westerners do. Here are some things that you may need to know about _______ together in the West.

In some Western countries, _______ is usually eaten at about 1 pm. Dinner is served around 7 pm or even later. In Spain it is usual to have lunch at 3 pm and dinner at 10 pm!

At the start of a _______, the French say “Bon appétit”, and the Italians say “Buon appetito”. But there is nothing similar to say in English. “Enjoy your meal” is usually only said by the person who brings the food.

Forks and _______ are used for most Western food. The fork is held in your left hand and the knife in your right, and the food is held with the fork and cut with the knife.

During the meal, you may be _______ to serve yourself by someone who says, “Help yourself.” You can take it and say, “Thank you.” If you are given something you do not like, you can just say, for example, “I’m _______.

I am a plastic bottle. A week ago, I was on a supermarket shelf. I had a normal life, the same as all my brothers and sisters—other bottles full of water. I felt really happy.

Then a tall woman picked me up and put me in her basket! The woman took me home and put me in the fridge. It was cold, but I soon made friends with the cans and bottles in it. However, only a few hours later, she took me out of the fridge and drank the water inside me. Then she threw me into a dustbin. I have never felt so empty and alone in my life.

Early the next morning, a man took me out of the dustbin. He threw me and the other rubbish into the back of a truck. There were so many horrible smells. Then I was pushed together with the rest of the rubbish. Soon I was completely flat. I can not believe how thin I became.

I slept for a while. When I woke up, I found myself in a terrible place. Everything around me was ugly and had horrible smells. I felt afraid. I kept hoping that I would be moved somewhere else. Then huge trucks came and covered us with a layer of soil.

I asked another bottle what would happen to us. He said that we would never leave this horrible crowded place, but would have to stay here for thousands of years.

“Why can’t they reuse or recycle us?” I cried.

All aboard! Let’s take a ride on the world’s highest railway—the Qinghai-Tibet Railway. Sit back and enjoy the journey.     29    

We’re leaving Qinghai Station. The scenery along the way is some of wildest in all of China. Keep your eyes open as we race through this beautiful land. You might see a rare Tibetan antelope (藏羚羊) from your window.

Before we begin our journey, let’s learn about this amazing railway.     30     When it was completed on July 1, 2006, the Tibet Railway set nine world records, including the world’s highest railway at 5,072 meters above sea level, the world’s highest tunnel (隧道) at 4,905 meters, and the longest tunnel ever built on permafrost.

    31     Soon there will only be 50 to 60 percent of the oxygen which we are used to breathing. But don’t be afraid. Each rail car has two separate oxygen systems. One system spreads oxygen throughout the train at all times. And each passenger can also get a personal oxygen mask just like those used in planes.

Here are a few more things to think about as our train leaves the station.     32     First, the high altitude (海拔) made the task difficult because there was no enough oxygen. Second, much of the railway runs across permafrost, a type of ground that keeps changing as the weather warms and cools. Finally, the railway goes through some of the most sensitive ecology (敏感的生态环境) in China.     33    

All three challenges were met, making our trip possible. All aboard! The train to Tibet is leaving in fifteen minutes.

A．Get ready for the wonderful trip of a lifetime.

B．As we travel higher, the air gets thinner and thinner.

C．The temperature becomes lower and lower along the way.

D．It’s truly one of the great engineering wonders of the 21st century.

E．The designers solved three main challenges when building this great railway.

F．Great care was necessary to make sure of the smallest possible influence on nature.

If you were a little screw, could you stick to your post (岗位) forever? Lei Feng answered this question with his service to his country.

Lei Feng was a Chinese soldier. During the 22 years he was alive, he helped many people. He carried luggage for the elderly and gave food to children. He once gave all his money to his friend’s sick parents. He darned pants and socks for other soldiers.

Lei Feng seldom spoke about what he did. After he died in 1962, people found his diary and learned about him. He became a symbol of the giving spirit. “There is a limit to one’s life, but no limit to serving the people,” Lei Feng said.

In 1963, Chairman Mao Zedong called on the nation to learn from Lei Feng, and each year’s March 5 has been named as “Lei Feng Day”. On that day, students do all kinds of volunteer work to learn from the role model. This year, some fifth graders in Shijiazhuang put the shared bikes along the road in order. Students from a primary school in Dalian told Lei Feng’s stories to others. “I learn from Lei Feng’s selflessness and want to help others by doing small things,” said Li Huaye, one of the students.

Lei Feng passed away more than 60 years ago, but the “Lei Feng spirit” still leads Chinese people to do volunteer work. President Xi Jinping said, “Lei Feng is the backbone (脊梁) of our nation. Let the ‘Lei Feng spirit’ settle down roots here. We should start from the baby to carry forward the spirit. The ‘Lei Feng spirit’ in the whole society can become common practice and then be carried forward from generation (一代人) to generation.”
