Section B — Reading: Going Home for the Spring Festival (1a)

“It’s almost the Spring Festival. Can we go to Hainan for the holiday, Dad?”“Not this time,” Dad answered with a smile. “We’re going to your mum’s hometown!”
Soon the day of our family trip came. We got up very early in the morning to catch the train. The train journey took more than five hours, and then we changed to a bus to get to my grandparents’ village in the afternoon. At the end of the road, I saw Grandpa and my little cousin standing in the cold wind waiting for us. We walked quickly to greet them.
Grandpa helped us pull the heavy luggage into the house.“Ah, home again!” said Mum with a smile on her face. Grandma, my aunt, and my uncle were busy cooking dinner in the kitchen. They were very happy to see us. After a little while, my parents went to the kitchen to help.“Could you bring Wenwen her favourite snacks?” Grandma asked Grandpa.I shared the snacks with my cousin and told Grandpa about school. He was happy to hear I was doing well at school. When dinner was ready, I asked, “Can I help?”“You can set the table,” Dad said.We then enjoyed all the delicious food.“Mm, the familiar taste of home!” said Mum.During the dinner, my uncle told us some jokes and we had a good laugh.Several days later when we were leaving, Grandma held my hands and asked us, “Will you come home more often?”Mum nodded, with tears in her eyes.

Section B — Reading: A Letter to John (2a)

Dear John,It was fun to decorate your room last month. I share a room with my brother, and with the coming of the Spring Festival, we want to decorate it to make a warm home. Can you help us?
Right now, the walls are blue. There are cute animals on them, but the animals look too childish for us. We want to cover the animals and paint the walls with warm colours. What do you think about the colour?
On Sunday, we can meet at the paint shop near the shopping centre and choose the paint together. Then we can paint the room with my brother. I loved the brushes we used for your room. Can you bring them?
After painting, could you help choose some photos to hang on the walls? Let me know what you think.
Best,
Zhang Peng

Telling China’s Story — Table Manners in China

When dining in China, it is important to show proper table manners. Here are some dos and don’ts to help you show respect while enjoying the dining experience.

Dos

  1. Wait until the elders are seated before taking your seat, and wait for them to start eating first.
  1. Try a variety of dishes to show respect for the host’s effort.
  1. Stop eating and put your chopsticks down when taking a drink or speaking to someone.
  1. Hold your glass lower than the elders when touching glasses.
  1. Cover your mouth with your hand when using a toothpick.

Don’ts

  1. Don’t place chopsticks straight up in a bowl. Instead, lay them flat on a chopstick rest or on your plate.
  1. Don’t play with your chopsticks or point them at others.
  1. Don’t just pick what you like from a dish.
  1. Don’t eat too fast. Take your time to enjoy the meal and try a little of each dish.
  1. Don’t talk with your mouth full. In fact, you’d better not talk too much during the meal.
