In
the
US,
a
new
video
app
called
TikTok
has
become
very
popular.
It’s
a
free
social
media
app
that
is
used
to
make
short
videos
with
a
mobile
phone.
My
friends
and
I
have
been
using
Instagram
and
Snapchat
for
a
while,
but
my
parents
have
had
mixed
feelings
about
allowing
me
to
use
social
media.
However,
they
eventually(最终)
gave
in
when
I
proved
that
I
was
able
to
manage
my
time
wisely
and
get
my
homework
done.
I
also
promised
that
I
would
not
spend
a
lot
of
time
on
it.
I
really
didn’t
want
to
miss
out
on
this
fun
and
trendy
platform.
I
have
made
three
TikTok
videos
so
far
and
one
of
them
got
over
2,000
views
within
a
few
days.
Every
mid-October,
my
school
has
homecoming,
which
is
an
annual
tradition
of
welcoming
back
old
alumni(校友)
and
celebrating
school
spirit.
The
Student
Council
also
organises
a
week
of
events
to
celebrate
homecoming.
Making
TikTok
videos
became
one
of
the
events
this
year.
Many
of
us
made
TikTok
videos.
Our
Student
Council
chose
the
top
five
funniest
videos.
The
winning
videos
were
played
on
a
big
screen
during
a
school
assembly(集会)
and
our
school’s
president
was
the
first
place
winner.
I
made
a
TikTok
video
with
a
couple
of
friends.
Although
I
didn’t
win,
I
enjoyed
the
process
since
my
video
showcased(展示)
my
creativity.
On
a
recent

Chicago,
a
popular
food
truck
in

was
providing
food
and

was
sponsored(赞助)

As
we
all
know,
the
“rice
bowl”
culture
of
China
has
influenced
some
Asian
countries
such
as
Japan,
Korea
and
Vietnam
since
we
started
to
use
chopsticks
while
eating
food.
Chopsticks
are
usually
two
long
thin
pieces
of
wood
or
bamboo.
They
can
also
be
made
of
plastic,
animal
bone
or
metal.
(1)The
most
important
thing
is
that
chopsticks
are
a
great
invention
in
China.?
Five
thousand
years
ago
people
usually
cooked
their
food
in
large
pots,
using
twigs(小树枝)to
remove
it.
(2)
the
population
grew,
people
began
cutting
food
into
small
pieces.
(3)Food
in
small
pieces
could
be
eaten
easily
with
twigs
by
people.
And
twigs
were
gradually
changed
into
chopsticks.?
Some
people
think
that
the
famous
scholar
Confucius
living
from
about
551
BC
to
479
BC
pushed
the
development
of
chopsticks.
Confucius
believed
that
using
chopsticks
instead
of
knives
would
remind
people
to
stay
away
from
killing
and
violence
at
table.
We
enjoy
our
delicious
food
with
our
family
members
or
friends
while
feeling
the
peaceful
and
people-loving
world
by
using
chopsticks
at
table
anytime.

抖音是一款在智能手机上制作短视频的公共社交软件,近年风靡美国校园。家长的担心或反对也阻止不了学生们对抖音短视频的喜爱。很多学生喜欢制作抖音短视频,他们认为这是他们创造力的展示。
