Hot pot(火锅) is many Chinese people's favorite and Liu Yang is one of them.
Three days ago，Liu Yang arrived in England. There he had three days of hamburgers，sandwiches and potatoes. Yesterday he was very excited when he heard that there was going to be a meal of hotpot to welcome the new students.
He went into the room and sat next to an American girl. To his surprise，he saw potatoes and bread in front of him. Where was the hot pot?
When she saw Liu Yang was very surprised，the American girl told him the hotpot is NOT hot pot. China has hot pot in two words but English hotpot is written in one word.

I won't be worried about it.” The mouse turned to a pig，“I am Sorry，Mr Mouse，but the mousetrap has nothing to do with me，either！” t he pig said. Then the mouse tamed to a cow. “It sounds like you have a problem，not me.” the cow said. The mouse returned to the house with head down and it was very sad because no one would help.
That night the farmer's wife heard a loud sound and she rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness she could not see that it was a snake. The snake bit(咬)the farmer's wife.

My father used to work in the city and seldom stayed at home. But he would come back and help harvest(收割) rice every year.
One autumn，he promised to help our neighbor，who lost his arms in the traffic accident in
1999，to harvest his rice. After father harvest our own，his little rice picker broke. What's worse，he had to return to work the next day because his partner was ill in hospital. It meant that Father wouldn't be back in a few days. It now seemed impossible to help out the neighbor.
Father told us that he wouldn't let the neighbor's rice rot(腐烂) in the field. He decided to harvest it by hand without a mach ine. “If tonight's weather is clear，I think I can do it.” added my father. In fact，he was rather tired after a day's harvest work.
After dinner，father had a short rest and made his way to the field. A full moon was glowing(发光) in the sky and the weather was cold but clear. He spent whole night keeping his word.
I would never forget the image(画面)：father was cutting rice in the light of the harvest moon.
Behind him，row after row of rice stocks(秸秆) stood at attention，showing respect for a man who kept his word.
