For many Chinese people, nothing is more common than drinking hot water every day. However, the simple habit is like a mystery to people from other countries.For many Westerners, the idea of drinking hot water is very strange. However, most Chinese people think the Americans habit of drinking ice water is also strange and even unhealthy. Some old people would carry a tea kettle (茶壶) when they travel. Chinese doctorsare encouraging more people to take on the habit of drinking hot water, especially for women.But in Western countries, drinking hot water isnt common. Westerners often have drinks with ice, not just on hot days but almost every day.There is a story online about a British man, who has been in Beijing for over five years. He visited a local caf when going back to England. He asked for a glass of hot water in a British accent (口音). But this request surprised the waitress. “To.to.to drink?” she doubted.Finally, the man received the hot water but felt cold stares from every corner of the caf.Westerners wonder why Chinese people drink hot water as Chinese are wondering why Westerners drink cold water.

How to Drink Water(B)The history of Chinese characters dates back to ancient times, with the history of at least several thousand years.There are many tales and legends about the origin of hanzi, Chinese characters: there is Cangjie, the legendary inventor of Chinese charater; the ancient practice of knot-tying; the eight trigrams (八卦); and ancient painting legends to name a few. It is generally agreed thathanzi began as simple pictures, images that the ancient Chinese people drew, painted or carved to describe nature or their lives. Other ancient cultures developed picture-based writing systems as well, such as the hieroglyphs ( 象形文字) of ancient Egypt or the script of theancient Mayan civilization. Hanzi, however, is the only one of these ancient writing systems to survive.Today, Chinese characters are the oldest continuously used system of writing in the world. Researchers generally agree that the oldest symbols recognizable as Chinese charactersare those found on ancient oracle bones (甲骨文). These 3000-year-old symbols, known as,jiaguwen, were carved on turtle shells or bones of animals. The jiaguwen can give all of us in the modern era insight into how ancient Chinese saw the world around them and into their great creativity in expressing their observations. Take, for example, the modern character jia, meaning home or family. The jiaguwen character looks like a house with a nice pig inside, originating from the ancient idea that a good family home has plenty of food. Over thousands of years, this hanzi evolved into a variety of different forms but finally developed in a more stable manner after the unification of China under Emperor Qinshihuang,When you first look at Chinese characters, you will most likely feel that they are very complicated. However, if you know just a little about how these characters are formed, youwill find that they are not nearly as difficult as they seem. About 80% of Chinese charactersare composed of smaller parts, known ns radicals (部首), which are combined in many different ways to form tens of thousands of hanzi. Fortunately, you need to know only about two or three thousand characters for use in daily life!As China takes its place in the international community, the Chinese writing system has spread to other countries. Today, many international students are studying Chinese, both the spoken and written language, and are coming to appreciate Chinas fascinating culture. And,as Chinas culture and society have continued to develop, the amazingly versatile (多功能的)Chinese characters (hanzi) have been adapted for use in digital format on computers and other devices. And so written Chinese lives on, spreading Chinese culture wherever it goes.31.

The ground shakes. The tide goes into reverse. A great roaring sound fills the air. And then It strikes. Wave after wave of crashing, crushing water. And when it is over, nothing is left. A tsunami.The word in Japanese means “harbor wave”. Japan has been hit by many tsunamis in its history, as a result of its location. It lies across the edges of4 tectonic plates (地光板块). Mostearthquakes are born in such places. When two tectonic plates push together, the earthquake sends enormous amounts of energy up through the ocean. A series of waves expands in all directions. In deep water, these waves travel fast up to 500 miles an hour but reach a height of only a few feet. A passing ship may not even notice them. But as the waves enter shallow waters and come into contact with the ocean floor, their speed is reduced but their height is raised. As they move onto land, the waves can rise as high as a 10-story building.A tsunami wave doesnt break like an ordinary wave. Instead, it advances like a wall of water, crashing over everything in its way, sometimes reaching more than a kilometer inland. More damage is caused when the wave moves back out to sea. It drags everything in its path underwater and out to sea. Most tsunamis have several waves. They arrive between 10 and 60 minutes after the first strike just when survivors think the danger has passed.The deadliest tsunami ever recorded occurred in December of 2004. An earthquake off the coast of Indonesia caused a tsunami that rushed across the Indian Ocean and reached as far as the coast of Africa. Whole sections of cities were destroyed. More than 200,000 people died.Most had no way of being warned. Five thousand
