Two small words can bring a smile to someone’s face: thank you. But do you say these two words? Perhaps when someone holds the door open for you. Or when a friend does you a big favor.
In Britain, people say “thank you” quite often, even at times when there is no .
Sometimes we say it sarcastically (讽刺地)., if a friend throws my food away, thinking I was finished, I may say, “Oh, thank you!” Then my friend would reply, “Sorry.” This can make a situation confusing (困惑的) to foreign people.
However, anyone working in the service sector (行业)—waiters, taxi drivers, shop assistants, bus drivers and so on –will a “thank you” from British customers. If you’re happy with the driver who got you to school on time, or the waiter who served you food, say “thank you” to them. You’re really saying “good ”.
I was first that people don’t often say “thank you” here in China. But I know people can replace these words with a smile or nod.
Yet I can’t change my British of saying “thank you”. Even here in China, I know I use these two words too much. But saying “thank you” is free, and I believe the more the better.

Most of us have three meals a day .We take food for granted(想当然)。And we don’t think about it. experts argue a food crisis(危机)is coming.This crisis is going to make us the way we think about food.
Food is in great need a growing of world population.By 1960,the population was three billion.It doubled to six billion by 1999.By 2050,this planet will need to at least nine billion people.As a result,the food prices get higher and higher.
So,what can a ,crowed world do?One suggestion is to eat less meat.Meat uses more natural resources(资源)than grains(谷物) .It requires more to produce one pound of meat than to produce one pound of grain. It also requires between 5 and 10 times more water than vegetables. So ,eating less meat will more land for farming,and it will save water.
To eats less meat,people will need to change their eating habits. That will not be easy. Americans, for example,have loved meat. In general, They eat twice as much meat as people in other countries.At the same time,in developing countries like China and Brazil,sales of meat have doubled in the last 20 years. will double again by 2050.Growing need of meat wil continue to put pressure on natural resources.
World population is increasing,resources are becoming fewer,and food prices are rising.Therefore, we need to rethink what we eat every day. For meat lovers, we don’t need to give up meat .But we need to eat more grains and less meat.
