【推荐3】People in different places have very different ideas about what to eat. In our country, for example, people from the south like to eat rice while people in the north love dumplings or noodles. In Hunan or Sichuan, hot food is people’s favorite; however, people in Shanghai or Suzhou eat sweet dish almost every day.
But even if people live in the same part of the country, their tastes (口味) are not always the same. Old people and young ones have different tastes; men and women also have their different preferences (喜好). In a restaurant, some customs order thick and heavy soup, while others drink thin and clear one. A few people only eat vegetables. They do not eat fish or chicken at all!
So it is not easy for restaurants to meet the needs of all customers (顾客). To make more money, the restaurants in cities try their best to cook different kinds of foods.

Fanjing Mountain (2018) Fanjing Mountain is in the northeast of Guizhou Province. It is the main mountain of Wuling Mountain and it is 2,493 meters high.

We wash vegetables before cooking them. And we wash our hands before we start eating. That is because we know washing can clean our food and keep bad things away. But, do dogs, cows, deers, cats or pigs wash their food? No, they don’t.
However, there are funny animals called raccoons (浣熊) which wash their food before eating. Raccoons don’t eat if they can’t find water around. Even if they eat, they don’t look too happy. Why do raccoons clean food? Do they really have healthy eating habits? The answer is no. They don’t have a sense of cleanliness. Because they also wash the food in the dirty water!
In fact, raccoons find most of their food in the dirty water. Raccoons can’t see things clearly. Their front feet (脚) are used like our hands. Water can help their feet feel good, so they can know things better. That’s why raccoons usually live in near water and trees. They set up home in the trees.
Raccoons are good-looking. They are gray or brown, having big ears and small eyes and long tails. They look cute and we love them!

【推荐3】Tea and coffee are two of the most popular drinks in the world. However, people usually like one more than the other. These drinks also have very different uses.
Tea drinking started in China over 4, 000 years ago. Tea is made from leaves. These days, some people drink tea for health, using it to help with stress (压力) or losing weight. However, most people in tea-drinking counties think of tea as more than just a healthy drink. In fact, tea drinking in some counties is a part of the culture. In Turkey (土耳其), tea is always there when people meet. Whether in someone’s home or a company, tea is always offered as a way of welcoming. In the UK, homes and offices usually have tea time. Tea and other dishes are served at tea time in the afternoon. It is a way of relaxing with friends or co-workers (同事).
Coffee came much later than tea, just over 1, 000 years ago. Coffee is made from beans. Something in the coffee beans makes a person feel active. Most people do not drink coffee to relax. Instead, they drink coffee to get going. Many people drink coffee in the morning to help them wake up. Others will also drink coffee during short breaks in the afternoon to keep going through the working day. Some people may visit coffee shops just to meet and talk with friends. However, many people in coffee shops drink coffee while working on their computers.
