    In places of Asia, especially China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam, food is usually eaten with chopsticks.

    Chopsticks are two long thin tapered（锥形的） pieces of wood. Bamboo is the most material, but they are also be made of all kinds wood, as well as plastic, animal bone, ivory（象牙质）, metal, coral（珊瑚）and so on.

    Sometime chopsticks are quite artistic. Chopsticks can be covered with artwork. They might be made of gold and have Chinese calligraphy（书法）on them. A child’s plastic set of chopsticks might have a carton character, such as Mickey Mouse. 

    The Chinese have been using chopsticks for five thousand years. People probably cooked their food in large pots, using twigs（小树枝） to remove it. Overtime, as population grew, people began cutting food into small pieces so it would cook more quickly. Small amount of food could be eaten without knives and so the twigs gradually turned into chopsticks. 

    Some people think that the great scholar Confucius, who lived from about 551 to 479 B.C., affected the development of chopsticks. As a vegetarian, Confucius believed knives were too violent to use at the table.

    Chopsticks are not used everywhere in Asia. In India, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and central Asia, most people have traditionally eaten with their hands.

    1. Chopsticks can be made of all the following except         . 

    A．plastic         B．animal bone                C．cloth              D．wood 

    2. Artistic chopsticks might _______.

    A．be covered with artwork                            B．be made of gold

    　　Do you know something about tree rings(年轮)? Do you know they can tell us what the weather was like, sometimes even hundreds of years ago?

    　　A tree will grow well in a climate(气候)with lots of sunshine and rainfall．And little sunshine or rainfall will limit(限制)the growth of climate by studying the tree rings．For example, to find out the weather of ten years ago, count the rings of a tree from the outside to the inside．If the tenth ring is far from the eleventh ring, then we’re sure that it was sunny and rainy most of that year．If it is near to the eleventh ring, then the climate that year was bad．

    　　Tree rings are important not only for studying the history of weather but also for studying the history of man．Many centuries ago there lived a lot of people at a place in New Mexico．But now you can find only sand there－no trees and no people．What happened?

If you can, brush after lunch or after sweet snacks（快餐）, too.
