During the Tomb Sweeping Festival, apart from visiting to tombs, I spent a week help my family pick tea. It was hard job. I started out with picking early in mornings and went back late in evenings. I suffered the pain from my back and legs, that was an experience to remember the hardship of life, but I think it was an unforgettable memory. Do this job is not that easy. Tea is to be picked and then collect together for being processed in a machine. It is getting more conveniently to process tea by machines than by hand.

4 . Important Things to Know When Dining Out

Chopstick Rules

The way you handle chopsticks is important to avoid annoying your companions. When you put them down between bites, always put them down together so they are parallel with the edge of the table in front of you.     2    .

Hands or Utensils (餐具)

In India and the Middle East, it’s considered very rude to eat with your left hand. People in France expect you to eat with a utensil in each hand.     3    , instead preferring to use their hands. In Chile, you may never touch any food with your fingers. People in Thailand generally use their forks only to push food onto their spoons.

Making Requests

    4    . In Portugal, this would be a serious mistake, because it shows the chef that you don’t like their seasoning skills. Similarly, in Italy, never ask for extra cheese to add to your food.

Some of these cultural dining etiquette rules may seem random and strange, but they are important in various countries.     5    , the more comfortable you’ll begin to feel with its foreign cultural practices.

B．The more time you spend in any given country

C．Mexicans consider it inappropriate to eat with utensils

D．Don’t get caught making an embarrassing mistake at a restaurant

6 . A new documentary, Pot of Fire, went online on Tencent Video on Feb 14, allowing netizens to “enjoy” hotpot together on the Internet. No food other than hotpot is so welcomed by Chinese people.    1     .

As one of the famous meals in China, hotpot has been popular for ages, for it’s “free-for-all and healthy way”, according to National Public Radio. From vegetables to meat, from noodles to seafood, diners can add different ingredients to the soup to cook. Unlike frying or other cooking methods, boiling food only releases their nutrients into the soup.    2     Besides , hotpot can bring warmth to our body and improve blood circulation in winter, and increase sweat to help cool the body in summer, according to China Highlights.

But eating hotpot is much more than an enjoyment for our taste buds and health.    3    For most Chinese people, eating hotpot is usually a social event. A survey by Chenzhi Catering Database showed that 40. 2 percent of Chinese usually eat hotpot with friends, while 17. 6 percent use the occasion for a family reunion. When a group of people sit around a table to eat, chat and drink, it’s a good time.“As the food continues to boil in the soup, we keep drinking and chatting with each other.    4     ” said Yu Jiaqing, a 28- year -old luxury brand marketing staffer from Beijing.

    5     Or, at least you can watch Pot of Fire. As a popular saying goes, “There’s nothing to worry about after having a hotpot. If you are still worried, then go for it twice.”

A．Hotpot is very popular in China.

B．The atmosphere makes the time warm.

C．It’s also a celebration of life and friendship.

D．Hotpot does much good to people’ s health.

E．This way can maximize (使最大) the flavors of all the ingredients.

F．It represents how much they like to gather together to enjoy happiness.

G．So if you feel empty or lonely, cook a hotpot to fill your stomach and heart.

7 . Why do some people eat too much? Is it because they’re hungry? Or is there a scientific     1    (explain)?

There are a number of theories to account    2    overeating. One factor depends on the time of day. “It’s all part of a routine,” says Randy Seeley,    3    professor of psychiatry in Cincinnati. “You’re hungry at noon because that’s the time you     4    (eat) lunch for the past 100 days.” Another reason we may eat more than necessary is that the body needs to satisfy a salt and sugar balance. Drinking alcohol also increases appetite, because the body wants something     5    (absorb) the alcohol.

    6    (basic), overeating can also be a question of more biological factors. For instance, your body temperature can tell your brain that you feel hungry. “Your body temperature    7    (drop) when it’s time to eat, and eating warms you up,” says Gina Harlow, a paediatrics professor at Harvard University. Also, the smell of certain foods can make us imagine subconsciously the pleasure of eating    8    . Harlow adds, “If you know you love French fires,     9    (smell) them will make you want to eat them because you know how good they are,    10     can lead to eating too many.”

So, the next time you realize you’ve eaten too much, don’t worry about it. You can always blame it on science.

8 . 阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

In much of Asia, especially the so-called “rice bowl” cultures of China, Japan, Korea,     1     Vietnam, food is usually eaten with chopsticks.

Chopsticks are usually two long, thin pieces of wood or bamboo. They can also be made of plastic, animal bone or metal. Sometimes chopsticks are quite artistic. Truly elegant chopsticks might     2     (make) of gold and silver with Chinese characters. Skilled workers also combine various hardwoods and metal     3     (create) special designs.

The Chinese have used chopsticks for five thousand years. People probably cooked their food in large pots,     4     (use) twigs (树枝) to remove it. Over time,     5     the population grew, people began cutting food into small pieces so it would cook more quickly.

Food in small pieces could be eaten easily with twigs which     6    (gradual) turned into chopsticks.

Some people think that the great Chinese scholar Confucius,     7     lived from roughly 551 to 479 B.C., influenced the     8     (develop) of chopsticks. Confucius believed knives would remind people of killings and     9     (be) too violent for use at the table.

Chopsticks are not used everywhere in Asia. In India, for example, most people traditionally eat     10     their hands.
