Every October the coastal Chinese town Qianxi in Zhejiang Province hosts a three-day-long dog-eating festival during which around 15, 000 dogs are killed and eaten. This carnival-like event dates back more than 600 years and is honor of a military victory during the Ming Dynasty.
However, a recent government ban may have ended this.
Historically, the eating dog meat has been common place in China. It is referred to as “fragrant meat” and some Chinese people believe it is good for health. Popular dishes include dog soup, dog with tofu and dog hot pot.
One animal welfare worker, Wang Lingyi from Hangzhou said, “People actually enjoyed killing them in different ways at the festival. I’ve seen the dogs being stabbed(刺), hanged and even beaten unconscious and then thrown into boiling water. ”
One Chinese blogger describes that “On the days of the festival, the streets were washed with blood while the air was filled with dogs’ desperate howls. ”
The Xinhua News Agency reported that the issue of dog-eating was put to the vote on Weibo. com. A hundred thousand people voted on this issue and 91 percent said “no” to the carnival.
Dog-eating is a common practice in many parts of China. Since the country has an enormous human population, the number of dogs being consumed is likely very large.
Hopefully, this is the beginning of trend away from eating dogs. Currently the Chinese government is considering legislation(立法) that would make eating dogs and cats illegal and they claim that this is part of a response to increase public awareness about issues associated with animal welfare.

You might be wondering if frogs have teeth. Well, not all frogs have teeth but some species do have sharp teeth. According to a latest study, the lower-jaw teeth in frogs are believed to have been re-evolved after 200 million years. There are around 6, 000 frog species in the South America. Gastrotheca guentheri is the only species that has teeth in its
upper and lower jaw. These frogs live in Columbia and Ecuador. The frog’s teeth are cone-shaped(锥形) which are used for taking on prey(猎物). Frogs cannot chew their food; they have to swallow their prey. Frogs typically use their forelegs, tongue, and their eyes (by pushing backward) to force the prey backward into the mouth down the throat. Frogs having teeth do not bite for defense but only for handling prey.
Frogs are amphibians(两栖动物) ranging from 7. 7 mm (0. 30 inches) to 300 mm (12 inches) in length. They have transparent eyelid, which is used to protect eyes underwater. The African bullfrog, for example, is a species that hunts on large animals including mice and other frogs and they have cone-shaped teeth.
Frogs have short back legs that assist them to walk instead of a jump. Some species are perfectly adapted for swimming as they are often found in water. Nevertheless, Frogs are excellent jumpers that can jump farther than many other same-sized animals. The Australian rocket frog, for instance, is capable to leap over 2 meters (6 feet 7 inches). Similarly, the northern cricket frogs can make short rapid jumps on the surface of a pond.

Different Cultures
The cultures of the East and the West really distinguish each other a lot. 1
The origin of the eastern cultures is mainly from two countries: China and India. Both of the two cultures are developed by rivers—the Yellow River in China and the Hindu River in India. 2
When the two mother rivers gave birth to the Eastern culture, another famous culture was brought up on the Mesopotamian Plain—the Mesopotamian Civilization. This civilization later on developed into the cultures of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. 3 Like the Chinese culture, the European culture also crossed waters. When the British settled down in America, their culture went with them over the Atlantic Ocean. So the American culture doesn’t distinguish from the European culture a lot.
4 Take the language system for example. In the East, most languages belong to the pictographic language while the Western
languages are mostly based on the Latin system. Other causes like human race difference acount as well. But what’s more, due to the far distance and the steep areas between the East and West, the two cultures seldom communicate until recent centuries. So they grew up totally in their own ways with almost no-interference (干扰) from the other.
The differences are everywhere. 5 But different cultures make the world of the 21st century more colorful. The cultural gap should not be the obstacle ( 障碍) to the civilization of human being. It ought to be the motivation of our going farther.
A. Let us work together to keep a variety of culture.
B. One important thing is to learn about other cultures.
C. And these two are well-known as the base of the European culture.
D. At the same time, some other differences add to the cultural differences.
E. This is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole.
F. They helped the two cultures develop for centuries and form their own styles.
G. They are obvious and affect people’s ways of thinking and their views of the world.
答案: 1~5 EFCDG
