I arrived in the UK last weekend to learn English. So far I have already made a few friends and had some traditional English food there. But after having three days of hamburgers, sandwiches and potatoes, I thought none could be more delicious than Chinese food, especially my favorite-huoguo. You cannot imagine how excited I was when I got to know that there was going to be a free meal of hotpot to welcome the new students. On the way to the canteen, I seemed to smell huoguo in the air.
To my surprise, when I went into the room, I did not see any sign of huoguo. Where was it?
With many questions in my head, I sat down to have the free meal. After talking with an English girl, I got to know that Chinese huoguo is completely different from hotpot. Chinese huoguo is written in two words——hot pot; and hotpot, one word, is a traditional English dish.
Hotpot is made from mutton and onion. On the top are pieces of potatoes. People put it in the oven all day in a heavy pot on a low heat. It takes very little effort to prepare. You can often see it at parties in the UK because it is easy to prepare for a large number of people and is not expensive.
Hotpot does not taste bad. However, I still miss huoguo—hot pot, two words!

The story of Dr. Percy Julian is an example of one man’s hard work and bravery. Percy was born in 1899 in Alabama, US. Because he was African-American, he couldn’t go to the same schools as white children. The schools he went to did not teach science. And yet, he had a strong interest in chemistry.
After college, Percy wanted to go to graduate school, so he could become a chemist(化学家). But one school after another turned him down because of his skin color.
