How many times have you come back and felt terribly tired, feeling like your head
is going to explode? Sounds familiar, right? Well, there are several ways to reduce the
frequency of headaches, and those are: eating balanced diet through the day; making
sure your body is well hydrated (保持身体水分); getting some exercise to remove the
negative energy, like helping yourself with a short massage ( 按 摩 )on your head.
However, preparing an easy recipe will instantly put a smile on your face after your
workday.
You will need these simple ingredients (配料)to prepare the magical drink which
will stop your headache: Lemon juice; 2 teaspoons of salt (preferably high quality salt);
1 cup of water.

Squeeze 2 lemons. Pour the lemon juice into a cup and add 2 teaspoons of salt.
Mix the two ingredients. Add a cup of water to the content. Drink the mixture quickly.
How will this drink work and what are the benefits of its ingredients?
Salt: Here is what salt does for your body：
—regulates your blood sugar；
—balances the sugar levels；
—benefits nerve cells for communication and information processing；
—obtains acidity from your body's cells, especially brain cells；
—works as a strong antistress element for the body；
—adds energy in your body's cells.
Lemon Juice: This excellent juice, full of Vitamin C and antipoisons, will release
all poisonous substances from your body and give you a sense of lightness. Here's how
the lemon will help you ease your headache and maintain wellbeing to your whole
body：

—protects your immune system；
—nourishes your brain and nerve cells；—reduces inflammation ( 炎 症 )in your whole body (the headache is a type of
inflammation, so the lemon juice fights against it)．

Chinese and Western eating habits are different. In China, the dishes are placed on
the table and everybody shares. It is always polite to let guests or elderly people at the
table taste every dish first. But in the West, everyone has his or her own plate of food.
Although there are no strict rules on how to set chopsticks and spoons, there are
some things you should never do during a Chinese banquet (筵席)．
Firstly and most importantly, don't put your chopsticks upright in the rice bowl.
Instead, lay them on your dish. The reason for this is that when people die, family
members give them a bowl full of rice with a pair of chopsticks sticking out upright in
it. So if you stick your chopsticks in the rice bowl, it appears that you want someone at
the table to die.
Make sure the spout (容器嘴) of the teapot is not facing anyone, as this is impolite.
The spout should always be directed to where nobody is sitting, usually just outward
from the table.
Don't tap on your bowl with your chopsticks. Beggars tap on their bowls, so this is
not polite. Also, when the food is coming too slow in a restaurant, you should not tap on
your bowl. If you are in someone's home, it is like_insulting the cook.

“_________”．
A．playing jokes on
B．laughing atC．treating badly
D．looking down upon
7. Why is it impolite to tap on your bowl when you eat in a friend's home?

B．Because it means that somebody will die.
C．Because tapping on the bowl will bring bad luck.
