In September 1991, two German tourists were on holiday in the Alps (阿尔卑斯山脉). One day, they were walking along a road when they saw something in the ice. They stopped and looked. It was part of a body. They thought it was a climber, but they were wrong. This body was over 5300 years old. It was a man from the Stone Age (石器时代).

tzi, as the archaeologists (考古学家) called him, lived between 3350 BC and 3100 BC. He came from northern Italy and he was about forty-six years old. He was about 1.6 meters tall, and he had blue eyes and long, dark brown hair. We know that he was a farmer because scientists found pieces of corn in his clothes.

He changed our ideas about the Stone Age. Before tzi, archaeologists thought that copper (铜) didn't arrive in Europe until 2000 BC. However, tzi was carrying a copper ax (斧头) 1, 300 years earlier. He was also carrying a knife and some wooden tools. He was wearing warm clothes. These things show that Stone Age people were more amazing than we had thought.

It would be difficult to imagine modern life with 【1】

the telephone. It has become an useful instrument of 【2】

communication, save much travel and time by making 【3】

people to talk to one another over great distance. 【4】

Nowadays it is as easy to talk cross a continent(大陆) 【5】

or even overseas, it is to talk to one’s next-door 【6】

neighbor. So, it is in emergencies 【7】

which the telephone really shows its usefulness. When 【8】

there is a fire, and when someone is suddenly ill, the 【9】

first thing one think of is “where is the nearest telephone?” 【10】

People from southern China might say they prefer to buy what they need for just one or two meals. It is normal for them to buy just half a Chinese cabbage, two potatoes and 0.25 kilograms of beef at a time.

However, one may be laughed at if he does this in the north. Instead, buying vegetables and meat enough for a week is usual, reported China Daily.

Also, when you go to the market in the south, you can buy a small amount of fruit, such as an apple or pear. Shop owners even help you peel and cut them. But hardly do shop owners in the north offer such service.

The difference could be because of the different weather.

Food can be kept for a long time in the north, as it is usually cold and dry there. Many northerners have the habit of stocking up（储存）on food.

But because of the hot and wet weather in the south, southern Chinese prefer to buy just enough food for one meal or one day. Otherwise, the food may go bad.

Maybe these debates about differences help us Chinese know more about each other.
