32、ome unfamiliar food. That is part of the fun of traveling. Here are four peoples experiences with foreign food.David King is a Chinese student in France. “I never had cheese or even milk before I came to France. Cows are seldom seen in my part of China. So there is no milk or milk products. I drank
33、some milk when I first arrived in France. I hated it! I tried cheese, too, but I didnt like it. I love ice cream, though thats made from milk.”Birgit is from Sweden. She traveled to Australia on vocation. “I was in a restaurant that was special in fish. I heard some other people order flake, so I or
34、dered some, too. It was delicious! Later, I learned that flakes is an Australian name for shark. Now, whenever I see a new food, I try it on purpose. You know why?

35、is beef in them. Im a Hindu(印度教信徒)and my religion(信仰) stops me from eating meat from the cow. Thats why I cant eat hamburgers or noodles with meatballs.”Nathan is from the United States.

So
39、me of them even lose their lives for it. Money does have its most useful effect(影响) on the poor, but once a person has a rich life, a lot more money doesnt mean more happiness.If money was everything, all millionaires(百万富翁) would have true love, true friendship, good health and a long life. However,
40、 this is not always true.Nothing else is more pleasant than the three words which are “I love you”. But can love be bought? Im afraid not. Love means to give, not to take. To every person, health and long life are probably the most precious(宝贵的) things. Well, can health and a long life be bought wit
41、h money? The answer is “No”.Of all the longest living people in the world, few of them are millionaires. True friendship cant be bought either.

46、a, a small village in Peru, South America. However, things went from bad to worse in March 2015 after heavy rains damaged the only power cables in the area. The villagers were forced to use oil lamps, which are not only expensive but also dangerous because of the harmful gases they produce. &
47、nbsp;Luckily, researchers at the University of Technology (UT) in Lima, Peru heard about their problem and found a wonderful solution. They made a lamp that can be powered by plants and soil, both of which can be easily found in the Amazonian rainforest where the village lies. The lamp takes energy
48、from a plant growing in a wooden box and uses it to light up an LED light bulb. While that may sound amazing and even impossible, the science behind the ides is quite simple. As plants create their food (using the suns energy, water and chemicals from the soil), they also produce waste
49、which they return to the soil. Tiny animals in the soil eat this waste and they produce electrons the building blocks of electrical energy. The UT team put special sticks inside the soil to capture the energy and keep it in the lamps batteries for later use. The researchers say a single charge can p
