THE WAY WE EAT by Matteo Russo, Italy
Hi! We often think our way of doing things is the only way. But people do things differently all over the world.
Eating together is important in every culture, but what we eat and what we do at mealtimes depend on
tradition. For example, in Italy we say ‘Buon Appetito’ before we eat, but my friends in the UK don’t usually
say anything! It’s really strange for me.
What people eat
People eat a wide variety of food and some of it can seem strange to us. Japanese people eat a lot of raw
fish and seaweed. Millions of people around the world eat insects and grubs – they are a source of protein.
And in Mexico, they eat them as snacks. In some countries, certain food isn’t allowed. For example, people
don’t eat pork in Saudi Arabia and Lebanon, and millions of Indians don’t eat meat at all.
How people eat
In the Middle East and India, many people eat with their hands, but it’s very rude to use your left hand.
In China and Japan, people eat with a pair of chopsticks – it’s rude (and difficult!) to just use one. Usually,
people don’t make much noise when they eat. But you can ‘slurp’ when you eat noodles in Japan. It means
you like them! In Germany, break up your potatoes with your fork, don’t cut them. This shows that they’re
tender.
How people serve food
In Thailand and China, don’t put too much on your plate because it looks greedy to take a lot. And at the end
of your meal, leave a bit of food on your plate. This shows that you aren’t hungry any more. But in France
and Denmark, it isn’t polite to leave food at the end of the meal because it looks like you didn’t enjoy it.

● What is a desert?
● What is the world’s largest desert?
● How hot can it get in the world’s hottest desert?
Nature can be dangerous. There are many extreme
environments from jungles to mountains, from rivers to seas.
Today we’re looking at deserts.
What is a desert?
It’s hot and dry, right? Well, that’s half right. A desert is an area of dry
land that receives less than 250 mm of rain per year. This means that
Antarctica is in fact the world’s largest desert. But most deserts, such as
the Sahara and the Sonoran, are hot. Temperatures in the Sonoran can

nature by MARK HAMELIN A desert trip
Deserts are inhospitable places. So when you go on a desert journey, it’s
important to be prepared. Here is some essential equipment:
• a spade • some extra fuel • a first aid kit • lots of water
• a wool blanket • some pieces of carpet • a signal mirror and some flares
In an emergency
Your car breaks down. You haven’t got any food or water. What can you
do? Well, first the good news. You can survive three weeks without food.
Unfortunately, you can only go three days without water. So, you can
collect rainwater. You can dig a hole in a dry river bed and look for water.
Or you can drink the liquid from inside a cactus. By the way, you can eat
different kinds of cactus fruit. It’s an important friend!
What lives in the desert?
Lots of insects and animals live in deserts. Some animals like lizards, bats
and mice are no problem. But coyotes and snakes are dangerous. And you
don’t want to share your sleeping bag with a scorpion or a spider.
So try to keep your body clothed and off the ground!
Have you got any questions?
Just write to Mark.
