What is “American” food ? To many people , American food means hamburgers, hot dogs , and fried chicken . However , are those the only kinds of food in the U.S.?
Except for Thanksgiving turkey , it’s hard to find a typical “American” food . The United States is a land of immigrants（移民) . When people move to America , they bring their cooking styles with them . So Americans eat food from many different countries. That’s why you can find almost all kinds of ethnic (异国风味的) food in America, such as Italian pizza , Mexican tacos (墨西哥饼) and Chinese fried rolls. But they don’t taste quite like the real taste of the food .
As a large country-style cooking, take a trip to New England and try seafood dishes , and travel through the Midwest for baked food.
Now Americans live at a fast speed and often have some fast food. One of the most common quick American meals is sandwiches . Some Americans also choose to eat unhealthy food, but others prefer “all natural” eating habits. They refuse to eat any food with additives(添加剂).
American culture is a good example of the saying : “You are what you eat.” The different kinds of food show the different kinds of personal taste . Anyway , it’s all American.

Do you still get free plastic bags from the supermarkets? Things have changed.
China has banned (禁止) free plastic bags at shops and supermarkets, and people have to pay for using plastic bags. The rule started on June 1. It came because our country tried to make litter less. Making super-thin (超薄) plastic bags has also been banned.
The Chinese once used about 3,000,000,000 plastic shopping bags a day, and they have caused pollution of the environment. The bags have become a main cause of plastic pollution because they are easy to break and people throw them away here and there. So the Chinese people are encouraged to bring theft own bags for shopping.
What kind of shopping bag is the best to bring? Some students in Chongqing have a good idea. They make their own shopping bags. They use old clothes to make cloth bags, and send them to their parents as presents. They also ask theft parents and friends to use cloth bags instead of plastic ones. They think it is their duty to protect the environment.

Everyone worries. But how do you deal with your worries? Whether your worries are big or small, you can take these three steps to deal with your worries:
1. Try to find out what you're worded about
Sometimes, you will know what you're worried about. Other times ,you might not. Try to find it out first; if you can't, you can’t ask for help.
2. Think of ways to make it better
There is always something you can do to help you feel less worded. Sitting there worrying is no fun and it won't solve your problem.[
Grades at school are often top worries for kids. If you're worded about grades, ask yourself these questions:

★How do I get ready for class? Do I go over my notes even when there isn't a test?
★Do I have a good place to do my homework?
★ Have I tried different ways of studying?
If your worry is about a fight you had with a friend, you might write down all the things you could do: write a note to him or her, invite him or her to a basketball game, say sorry to him or her, etc. Once you have a list of things you could do, you can choose the one that gets your friend back.
3. Ask for help
