We all know China is a nation with a very long history and ancient culture. Its people are known as the most hospitable people in the world. If you visit a Chinese family, you will be surprised at the warmth that you receive as a guest.

Firstly, you will feel comfortable with their greetings. For example, “Are you busy these days?”, “How are things going on with you?”, “How’s your trip here?” etc. Then they will serve you with tea and snacks. The host, one of the family members, will usually chat with you in order to make you feel important.

At the same time, the hostess(女主人) and other family members will cook a big dinner for you. They always prepare more food than you can eat. During the meal, the guest must be the first one to pick up the food. The host will pick food for the guest, which is impolite in the west. But this is a very Chinese way to show their warmth.

After the meal, they will go on chatting again with tea and snacks. In the end, when you’re about to leave, they will ask you to stay longer again and again. A perfect entertainment(招待) will be over by the whole family seeing you off.

Being warm has long been an important part of Chinese culture and tradition. As Confucius(孔子) said thousands of years ago: isn’t it also great when friends visit from distant(遙遠(yuǎn)的) places?

It’s getting warmer and the grass is greener. How fine it is to relax on the grass. But signs such as “keep off the grass(遠(yuǎn)離草坪)” in china always make me afraid. In the UK, people can relax in the open air or in the parks at any time.

If it’s a sunny day, people will just sit on the grass and feel the sun’s warmth. Families enjoy spending their weekends on the grass. There, families can bring something to eat or drink and play cards with family members or friends; children can play chess and tell each other jokes.

Also, in most schools, grass fields are like a soft study desk for students. They can enjoy reading books and learn in the green environment(環(huán)境). They also talk, laugh, listen to music and play games on the grass.

In some parks, there are many kinds of green grass for people to relax and play sports on. Be smart to find the good one, and you may feel yourself sitting in the middle of a soccer game.

However, there is one rule when you enjoy the green grass: keep it clean!
