When we travel from one country to another, we find people have quite different feelings about food. People often feel what they eat is normal, and what other people eat is strange or silly. In most part of Asia, for example, people like rice and meat. In England, people eat potatoes every day. In the Middle East, bread is the main part of every meal. Eating, like so many things we do, becomes a habit which is difficult to change. Americans like to drink a lot of orange juice and coffee. The English drink tea four or five times every day. Australians drink a great deal of beer, and the French drink wine every day.
The sort of meat people like to eat is also different from one country to another. Horse meat is thought to be delicious in France. In Hong Kong, some people enjoy eating snakes. New Zealanders eat sheep, but they never eat goat meat. The Japanese don’t like to eat sheep meat because of its smell, but they enjoy eating uncooked fish.

He listened to me quietly. Then he asked, “Are these things true or not? Do you know what you are really like? Go and make a list of what she said and find the things that are true. ”
I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered (发现）that about half of the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (改变)(like being very thin). But there were things I could and wanted to change. For the first time, I got a clear picture of myself.
I brought the list back to Dad. He didn’t take it, “That’s just for you，” he said “You know the truth (真相）about yourself better than anyone else. When people say something that is true about you，you should find it helpful. ’
