Have you heard of dazi Have you ever found a dazi These days, finding a dazi is becoming popular with young people in China. A dazi is a person(人) we eat with, learn with, exercise with or take a trip with..., but we don't know him or her before.

Finding a dazi shows that young Chinese people want clearer boundaries(界限) in their social relationships. Dazi will not talk or ask a lot about their personal lives. And they hope that these relationships can let them share their hobbies and interests, or that they can help them to improve themselves.
Although finding a dazi has many advantages, we should be careful and put our safety(安全) first.

Chopsticks come from China. Though simple and little, they are a great invention in the history of humans.
During Yao and Shun times, Shun asked Yu to control the flood(洪水). One day, Yu took a boat to an island, and he was hungry. He used an earth(土壤) pot to cook meat. After the meat was well - done, he didn't want to waste time waiting for it to cool down, so he took two branches(树枝) to pick up the meat from the soup. They worked very well. Gradually, he was good at picking up food with small sticks(棍子). In this way, the first kind of chopsticks was born.
Some people think that Confucius pushed the development of chopsticks. Confucius believed that using chopsticks instead of knives would remind(提醒) people to stay away from killing at table. We enjoy our delicious food with our family members or friends. Whenever we use chopsticks at the table, we feel the world is peaceful.
The chopsticks are made of different kinds of things. There are more than 200 kinds of chopsticks now. Among them, the bamboo chopsticks are most widely used.
"A chopstick can be broken easily; ten pairs of chopsticks hold each other tightly(紧紧地)…" The song is popular with many people, and it always encourages people to work together.
