The 3
Red represents luck and good fortune in Chinese culture. That is 4 red packets are used during Chinese New Year and other celebrations.
How to give and receive
Giving and receiving red packets is a 5 act. Therefore, red packets are always 6 and received with both hands.
Someone who receives a red packet at Chinese New Year or on his or her birthday should not 7 it in front of the giver. 8 , things are different at a Chinese wedding, where the guests usually give the red packets to the attendants and sign 9 names on a large scroll ( long piece of paper). The attendants will open the packets at once, 10 the money inside, and record it on a register(登记簿) next to the guests’ names.

Lima, the capital of Peru, is located in the central coastal part of the country, overlooking the Pacific Ocean. With a population of more than 9 million, Lima is one of the largest cities and the only capital in South America that faces the ocean.
Lima has a long history. The lost Inca civilization ,is thought to be a mystery. There are many museums, where you can learn: how the ancient American Indians founded the Inca Empire and built Machu Picchu, a famous ancient city in the Andes Mountains; what happened in 1532 and why over 90% of Peruvians speak Spanish. Visiting the historic center, a World Heritage Site you may find you are communicating with both the past and the present.
Lima is also a place where you can find the lifestyles and fashions, created by its people and culture. You will see Peruvian clothes, dances, and taste their delicious foods and drinks. You can see buildings in different styles, enjoy the fantastic sunset over the ancient ruins, climb the mountains, fly over the ocean, or sit in the restaurants and bars to experience Peruvians’ relaxing life.
You may have heard "It never rains in Lima." In fact, the special geographic feature makes it not as dry as it is said to be and it is warm all year round. Though it seldom rains in summer, it sometimes drizzles on early winter mornings. The drizzle and the wet air "water” the ground, which makes the crops and the plants grow. Moreover, modern technology helps to bring water from the snow and ice on the top of the Andes (over 6. 000m high) for the city to use. People there never waste water.
Lima is such an amazing city that it is worth a visit.

An exhibition(展览)about the Grand Canal(大运河)ended at the National Museum of China in Beijing on March lst.
The Grand Canal is more than 2,500 years old. It is made up of the Beijing—Hangzhou Grand Canal, the Sui and Tang Grand Canal, and the Zhedong Canal. At nearly 3,200 kilometers long, it is the world’s longest man-made waterway. It has influenced the development of Chinese economics(经济)and culture for hundreds of years.

In fact, the Grand Canal played an important role in the building of the Forbidden City(紫禁城). Materials from different parts of the country were sent to Beijing through the canal, including bricks(砖)fired in Shandong and Jiangsu and wood cut in Hunan.

People have been eating pizza, in one form or another, for centuries. They eat it everywhere-at home, in restaurants, or on street corners.
2 Long ago, pieces of flatbread, topped with mushrooms and herbs (香料), were a simple and tasty meal. They were mostly for those who didn’t have enough money to buy plates, or who were on the go. In the 18th century, Naples, in southern Italy, had become one of the largest cities in Europe, and it was growing fast. Lots of city people were poor and they were always rushing around to look for work. 3 Pizzas were cut to meet the customers needs. They were inexpensive, used easy-to-find ingredients (原料), and could be made with plenty of flavor.
It was in America that pizza found its second home. 4 Soon, pizza spread across the country with the rapid development of the city. It was increasingly considered as a fast food. People might like New York-style thin pizza, or Chicago deep-dish thick pizza. Some want extra cheese on their pizzas while others only like vegetables. 5
