Can we here?

Hello, I am Bing Dwen Dwen. It took my "parents"10 months to create(创造) me. I am a cute and adorable panda with a pair of lovely short ears and large round eyes. I wear a "shell" which looks like an astronaut suit. I have some rings of color around my face. And there is a red heart on my left palm to say welcome. I am one of the mascots of Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games. Now I am very popular. |
— Yes, a little. But now we don't have to do so.
There is a pilot (飞行员) and four people in a small plane. Suddenly there is something wrong with the machine while it is flying in the air. The plane begins to fall down. The pilot tells the people there are only four parachutes (降落伞). They all become worried and start to make excuses.
"I must go," says the pilot, taking one of the parachutes and jumps out. The first person stands up, "I'm a doctor," he says. "I help people live longer and I save lives." He takes a parachute and jumps out.
The next person says, "I must have a parachute. I am a very clever person. I have to attend an important match. I know I will win the game because I'll be the cleverest person there." He picks up a pack and jumps out.
Two men are left—an old businessman and a young mountain climber. At this time the plane is going down fast. The businessman says, "Young man, I am old but you are still young. You take the last parachute." The young mountain climber smiles. "Don't worry," He says. "We can both jump out because there are still two parachutes. Just now the clever man jumped out with my backpack."
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).
