Why do Chinese people love hot pot so much? As the winter months are coining in, more and people are silting around a table, enjoying this kind of traditional meal. I find myself wondering what it U about this traditional meal, which has existed for more than 1,000 years. What makes it a Chinese food favorite? It seems that the answer lies beyond the dish itself.
Hot pot isn’t just designed to keep you warm during the cold months; it’s also a social experience. It’s a “theater” cooked food that turns a meal into an event. There is a lot of fun for everyone to have in adding some foods to the hot pot.
Hot pot is eaten over two to three hours. For this reason, it is often considered an evening’s entertainment, and a time to spend with friends and families. However, many westerners would be put off by the idea of other people sticking chopsticks in their food. When we come to eat at the table in the UK, we tend to have our own shares, although the experience is still a social one.
A similar experience to the hot pot can be found in Korean barbecue restaurants, which lei you cook your own meat. This allows people to have their meat done however they want.
For most westerners, the idea of going to a restaurant to cook their own food is very strange. But having a go, I find it’s now one of my favorite meals in Beijing. The steam from the pot left my clothes smelling of food when I got home, but perhaps this was also part of the experience. When the cold wind is blowing outside, I am sitting around with my good friends, eating and drinking. For me it’s like a dinner party where my taste buds and my appetite are equally satisfied in the warm company of friends.
1.What is the main reason why hoi pot is popular in China?
A. It has a history of over 1,000 years.
B. It is a fun social experience.

A. enjoy cooking their own food in restaurants
B. prefer a Korean barbecue to Chinese hot pot
C. don’t like sharing food with others in restaurants
D. don’t mind the smell of food staying on their clothes
3.How long do people spend in enjoying the traditional meal?
A. More than four hours. B. Over one hour.
C. About three hours. D. All the evening.

On the first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn't know.I looked round when a gentle hand touched my shoulder.I turned around to find a wrinkled, little old lady with a smile.She said, “Hi, handsome.My name is Rose.I'm eightyseven years old.Can I give you a hug?” I laughed and enthusiastically responded, “Of course you may !” She gave me a giant squeeze.“Why are you in college at such a young,innocent age?”I asked.“I always dreamed of having a college education and now I'm getting one!” she told me.After class we walked to the Student Union building and shared a chocolate milkshake.We became instant friends.
