Ⅰ. 阅读表达【主题：人与社会 文化差异】
The use of chopsticks has been a part of Chinese food culture. There are some taboos(禁忌) that you must pay great attention to, or you may make mistakes and be laughed at.
First, don't use chopsticks to hit the side of your bowl or plate, because Chinese people think only beggars (乞丐) would do this to beg for meals. Second, when you use chopsticks, don't use them to point at others. This would be regarded as a bad habit. Third, it is thought to be impolite when you suck (吮吸) the end of a chopstick. People will think you are short of family education. Fourth, don't use chopsticks to poke at (拨弄) every dish without knowing what you want. And last, don't put chopsticks straightly into the bowls or dishes. Chinese people do this only for the dead.
Nowadays, chopsticks are used more widely. For example, you can buy a pair as a gift for your friends or relatives. In Chinese, it reads “Kuai - zi”, which means to have sons soon, so a newly - married couple will be very happy to accept it as their gift.
An interesting study shows that many joints (关节) and muscles(肌肉) are being exercised when you use chopsticks. They certainly make you cleverer, don't they?
