I'm Linh, I'm eleven and I'm from China. Chinese food is really delicious. We eat a lot of rice, noodles, vegetables and meat. We fry or steam a lot of our food. It is very healthy.
In China, people don't usually eat with knives and forks. Instead we use chopsticks and we sometimes use spoons.
We usualy eat from big serving dishes. We put them in the middle of the table, but we sometimes serve portions of rice in small bolws. In China, we don't think it's rude to reach across the table to take food from serving dishes.
We do think it is rude to take the last piece of food from a serving dish for yourself. We offer it to another person instead. That is very polite.
When your bolw is empty, someone gives you more food. When you are full, you put your hand over your bolw or leave some food in your bolw. We don't put our chopsticks on top of our bolws. We put them on the table next to us when we finish eating. We don't use napkins, but we usually clean our hands with hot towels at the end of the meal.

LIFE IN AN ISLAND
Off the west coast of Scotland, there are many small island communities. Life in these communities is very different from life in the big cities. People from the cities often say that life in the islands is slow and boring. But the island people tell a different story.
Many families live by fishing or farming, and people usually have more than one job. Many families have rooms for tourists who come to visit the islands in summer. The tourists go walking and fishing and play sports. Sometimes they study Gaelic, the local language. And they stay in a 'bed and breakfast' with a local family or in one of the small island hotels. In the long summer evenings, people meet and talk together. They tell stories of where they live and what they do.
The children on the islands go to small local schools. They have their classes in English and Gaelic. Sometimes there are only eight or ten children in one school! When they are twelve, they go to secondary school in a bigger town on the island. When they finish that school, they decide whether to go to university in a big city, or to stay and work on the island.

THE BENEFITS OF TV
TV is now taking on more and more importance in our lives. For many it is now the main source of entertainment and they use it as a form of relaxation after a hard day at work or school. It is a way of forgetting about reality for a few hours. Most people like to watch comedy programmes or game shows, which do not require too much concentration. However, there are also many people who see TV differently. They use it to find out about the outside world, as a source of information. They switch it on when it’s time for the news or when there is a documentary on an interesting subject. Some people even learn history and literature by watching historical dramas or adaptations of novels. A thirteen-year-old girl who was found to have a very good general knowledge and was thought to read a lot said, “But I learnt it all from TV.” This is one interesting advantage of TV that many parents overlook.
