Presents are placed around the child’s bed while he is sleeping， so he will see them at once when he wakes up. India Usually Indian children wear white to school.

Japan The birthday child wears new clothes to mark the special time. Certain birthdays are more important than others.

People often ask what the weather is like in Australia. The answer is that it changes a lot! Why Because Australia is such a large country, weather in different parts is different in the country.
The northern parts of Australia are warm to hot all year round because it is closer to the equator （赤道）．In the north, summer is also the rainy season.
The areas along the coast around Sydney are warm in winter with the lowest temperatures about 50°F to 60°F.In summer it is warmer and the temperature is about 80°F.
However, if you think all parts of the country are warm all year round, you’ll be wrong. Some parts in Australia are very cold during the winter. When we say cold, we don’t mean that cold like the winter in Harbin. In some places in Tasmania and Victoria, you can see snow and temperatures there are below freezing（冰点）．In fact，many people do not know that there are ski resorts in the mountains of Australia.
Australia is a good place to visit. You can enjoy everything there from sunbathing on the beach to knocking snow off your boots after a day of skiing. If you want to go there for a visit, all you should think about is the weather there.

请阅读下面这篇文章，根据所提供的信息，回答5个问题。要求所写答案语法正确、语义完整，并把答案写在横线上。
Dear Zhao Bing, I am very glad to receive your letter. Here is some advice for you to visit a Chinese family. Chinese people like using chopsticks instead of knives and forks when eating. You can always ask for a knife and fork if you find the chopsticks not helpful enough. In China, the dishes are placed on the table and everyone shares. Sometimes the hosts use their chopsticks to put food in your bowl or plate. This is a sign of friendship and politeness. It is always polite to eat the food. If you do not eat it or feel uncomfortable with this, you can just say “thank you” and leave the food there. When you have had enough, just say “I’m full. Thank you.” You can make some noise especially when you are eating noodles, but don’t tap on your bowl with your chopsticks because it is not polite. Are there any special traditions in South Korea I am planning to visit you next month. Please write to tell me. Yours, Wang Ming
