Different countries have different eating habits.There is a saying “Eat good things for breakfast, eat a big meal for lunch, but eat less at dinner.” in China.Many Americans agree that one should start the day with a good breakfast, but their ideas about lunch and dinner are different.

Most Americans only give themselves a short time for lunch because they have not so much long time to have a rest at noon. So they eat a small lunch. After work they will have more time to eat a big dinner. Also a quiet dinner at home with all the family talking about their day is a way to take a good rest after a long, hard day of work.

Eating at restaurants is also different. In China, people like to talk and laugh while eating. Very often you can hear people talking and laughing loudly, and they just having a good time. In America it is not like this. They want a quiet place where they can eat a good meal far away from the noises of the outside world．If someone is talking too loudly, the manager of the restaurant will look at him or her angrily.

In most parts of the world, many students help their school make less pollution. They join “environment clubs”. In an environment club, people work together to make our environment clean.

Here are the things students often do.

No-garbage lunches! How much do you throw away after lunch? Environment clubs ask students to bring their lunches in bags that can be used again. Every week they will choose the class that makes the least garbage and report it to the whole school!

No-car day! On a no-car day, nobody comes to school in a car, not only the students but the teachers as well! Cars give pollution to our air, so remember to do such things: walk, jump, bike or run! Use your legs! It’s very fun.

Turn off the water! Do you know that some toilets can waste twenty to forty tons of water an hour? In a year, that would fill a small river! In environment clubs, students mend those broken toilets.

We love our environment. Let’s work together to make it clean!
