Cultural class-Chinese chopsticks.

The cultural class for this week was given on Chinese chopsticks. We have learned that the chopsticks are the main implements to be found on the Chinese dinner table. It symbolizes the ancient and centuries-old Chinese culture containing the five thousand-year history of Chinese ethnic people.

Chopsticks were called "zhu" in ancient times. It may be made of any of the following materials: bamboo wood, gold, silver, ivory or plastic, and they may be either round or square. Some chopsticks are engraved or decorated with colored pictures or calligraphy.

【Let's follow the picture and learn how to use chopsticks correctly.】

One theory for choosing chopsticks is that as an agricultural society, they rely on
vegetables for food. It’s very convenient to those eat with chopsticks. The westerners,
on the other hand, are living on meat. The knife and fork were more practical.
【Are you confident in your own skills for chopsticks? How about joining the bean 
 games with chopsticks and responding to the challenges?】
【There was an intense competition. Just do it!】
【Jeanine and Eric won in the first part and got a chance to pick a gift from the 
 box with chopsticks.】






【Cool, Tom did an incredible work.】


Fortunately, learning to eat with chopsticks is not difficult. And with a little practice, 
anyone can use chopsticks to enjoy Chinese food.
