What will you eat for lunch today? In some countries, lunchtime often means soup time! There are many kinds of soups served around the world. Some are as thin and clear as water. Some are as thick as stews. Others are full of noodles!
Soup is just one thing that can be eaten for lunch. What you eat for lunch may be different from the lunch of someone who lives in another country. Let's take a look around the world to see what kids are eating for lunch.
Mexico
Many children in Mexico eat tortillas (玉米饼) for lunch. Most tortillas are made from ground corn, but sometimes wheat is used. Tortillas are usually flat and round, but they can also be made into other shapes. Taco (煎玉米卷) shells are made from corn tortillas and filled with beans or meat. Tasty sauces, called salsas (调味汁),are often added' to tacos. These sauces are made from tomatoes, onions hot peppers and spices.
Russia
Winters in Russia are very cold. Maybe that's why many Russian children have soup for lunch. Two of their favourites are cabbage soup and beef soup.
Many Russian soups also include potatoes. Potatoes are an important crop in Russia. They make soups thick. Eating thick soups can help keep people warm and can fill them up, so hunger is no problem!
The ROK
Meals in the ROK are made up of many dishes. No matter what else is served, there is always rice. Kimchi is also always on the table. Kimchi is pickled (腌制的) meat or vegetables. The children of the ROK mix together many dishes and flavours at meals. It's common for their food to be hot and spicy.
Thailand
Lunch in Thailand often includes noodles. There are many ways to serve noodles. One popular dish is made with thin rice noodles, tofu and shrimps ( 虾). Another favourite way to eat rice noodles is with meat, vegetables and thick gravy (肉汁).

Her sport is .
Mary can't understand :
"She is blue today."
"You are yellow."
"He has a green thumb (大拇指)."
"He tells a white lie."
And she goes to her teacher for help.
Mary: Mrs. Smith, there is a colour in each of these sentences. What do they mean?
Mrs. Smith: In everyday English, blue sometimes means sad. Yellow, afraid. A person with a green thumb grows plants well. And a white lie is not a bad one.
Mary: Would you please give me an example of a white lie?
Mrs. Smith: Certainly. Now I give you some cake. In fact, you don't like it. But you won't say it. Instead(相反地), you say, " No, thanks. I'm not hungry." That's a white lie.
Mary: Oh, I see. Thank you very much.
