As we all know, every country has its own special festival. In China, Qingming Festival, or Tomb-Sweeping Day, is a traditional festival. It usually falls on the 4th or 5th day in April. On that day, Chinese pay respects to their ancestors and the dead. People in different parts of the country enjoy different foods on the day because of local customs(风俗).

Here are some traditional foods people eat on the special day.

1Qingtuan

Qingtuan is widely eaten in China's Jiangnan Area-the southern part of the Yangtze River-around Qingming Festival. The seasonal food is usually made from glutinous rice(糯米) mixed with pounded mugwort-an eatable wild herb thought to prevent insect bites.

2Sanzi

In both northern and southern China, it is an age-old tradition to eat sanzi, or fried dough twists, on Tomb-Sweeping Day. However, sanzi in North and South China are different in size and material. Northern people prefer larger ones made from wheat, while people in the South enjoy smaller ones made from rice.

3 Thin Pancakes

Thin pancakes are a popular food for people in Xiamen in Fujian Province on Tomb-Sweeping Day. To make it tastier, they usually add dried seaweed, omelet (! 'R), vegetables and chili sauce to the pancakes.

4Spring Onion and Omelet

In Qingdao in Shandong Province, people eat spring onion and omelet on the day. They believe a mix of the two helps improve eyesight and makes eyes brighter. In ancient times, pupils often sent eggs to their teachers to show respect on the day.

5 Steamed Rice with Leaf Mustard(盖菜)

In many places in Fujian Province, people thought eating steamed rice with leaf mustard on Tomb-Sweeping Day could help prevent skin diseases for the whole year.

Besides the above special foods in different places, people in Shanxi Province often eat a kind of steamed bun named after Jie Zitui. Therefore, Chinese love to eat different kinds of foods to celebrate different festivals. Maybe that is a common way for people all over the world to celebrate special festivals.

1.When is Tomb-Sweeping Day?

2.Where is Qingtuan widely eaten in China around Qingming Festival?

3.How are sanzi in North and South China different?

4.Why do people eat steamed rice with leaf mustard on Tomb-Sweeping Day?

5.What is the main idea of the passage?

It’s true that every country has its custom.

We all know that in America if people are pleased with you，they will give you a sign “OK”. But maybe you don‘t know this sign is considered to be rude in Brazil.

In Poland， guests usually choose flowers as presents for hostesses（女主人）. Remember the number must be an odd（奇数）one. And the hostess doesn’t hope that you remove the cover of the bunch（束）of flowers. You must be more careful when you give red roses to a woman because the red rose means love.

In China we often hear people say that “nodding” means agreement（同意）。 And “shaking the head” means disagreement. But in Bulgaria they mean the opposite.

We really need to pay more attention to the differences in customs. What‘s more， we should learn more about them in order to avoid embarrassment （尴尬）。 Do remember: when in Rome， do as the Romans do.

Now and then we all get ill. Then we usually go to see a doctor. Doctors know a lot about what makes us ill. They may give us something to take. The medicine often makes us well again. But sometimes the doctor's medicine doesn't work. A sick person does not get well. The pain will not　 go away. This happened to one man. He was in hospital, but he was not getting well. Then he found a new "doctor" inside himself. This new "doctor" was his own sense of humor (幽默感). He saw funny films. He read funny books. And something wonderful happened. Laughing took away his pain. Then he was able to sleep and rest. His own happy feeling helped him to feel well again. He said laughing was his best "medicine". His doctor thought so, too.

Another　 man was also ill, and he had a terrible pain in his back. The doctors could not stop it from hurting. So the man began to "Picture" his pain. In his head he "drew " a picture of a dog. He imagined it as a real dog. And he made friends with the dog. And his pain went away!

These stories may surprise you. But more and more people are getting well in this way. So visit the "doctor" inside your own head and you can stay happy and well.

We all need a healthy environment, but we produce(生产) waste every day and it does harm（有害）to our environment. Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you to live a green life.

Remember these three words; reduce, reuse and recycle.

Reduce means “use less”. Don't waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment. Before we buy something new, think if it is really necessary or maybe the old one will be just as good! When we do buy thing, choose local products if possible, and try not to buy too many things from abroad.XK]

Reuse mean “ use again”. Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last a long time. We should take care of them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don't use a paper cup or a paper bag. It's better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.

Recycle means “ change things into something else”. Although it takes energy to change something into something else, it's better than throwing things away or burning them. Find out what ca n be recycled in your neighbourhood and take part in recycling programmes. We should also buy products made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees.

We all know that everyone has his own dream as well as his own future. But do you know what future really is? I have to say that future is now. That is to say we must treasure (珍惜) every minute now. If we want to have a bright future, we should know how important time is and use it well.

There is an old English saying: “Gain time, gain life.” Then what’s time? Time is something that we can’t see or touch, but we can feel it passing by. Time is always with us. When we are at table, time passes; when we play, time goes by unnoticeably. We always say “Time is money”, but time is even more precious (珍贵的) than money, because when money is spent, we can earn it back. But if time is gone, it will never return (回来). So, some of us even say time is priceless.

We should always remember: future is now. For us students, we should work hard in order to make our own future better. We should make the best use of every hour and be the master of today. We should do what we can to do everything as well as possible. And never put off what we can do today till tomorrow.

As we all know, “Time and tide wait for no man.” If you waste today, you will regret (后悔) tomorrow. So from now on, work hard. Tomorrow will be better, and your future will be brighter. Remember: “No pains, no gains.” Today’s hard work is the cause(原因) of tomorrow’s harvest.
