Last weekend, I helped my grandparents prepare for our trip to Xi'an. On Saturday morning, together with them, I searched the Internet for the train schedule, the weather in Xi'an, or some hotel informations. In the afternoon, I went to the train station and manage to buy two tickets for them since there was a long queue. After dinner, I packed all the things that might be need into suitcase. And the next morning, I went to the station to see them away off. Wave goodbye to them on the platform, I felt very happy for them and wished them a safer journey.

Food is a very important and necessary part of our lives.
We eat food because we need it to live. It gives us the nutrients that we need for our bodies to grow.1.If we are happy, we eat; if we are sad, we eat; boredom, depression, and loneliness are other reasons that we eat.2.When we have friends or family over, we usually have some form of food to offer them, whether it is a light snack or a full meal.
3.Many of us like certain foods because we have been raised eating those foods. In many cases, whatever our parents eat or like to eat is what we eventually enjoy eating. The region where we live as well as economics determines much of our food selection. If we lived in China, we would eat a lot of rice because it is what is grown there.4.
Food is also a part of our many celebrations. However, the way that food is used in celebrations varies from home to home, and country to country.5.To understand why different foods are used in different celebrations, we need to understand a little about culture and how it could affect the foods we use.
A. Also, we use food for our social needs.
B. Very often, we eat food for psychological reasons.
C. Nowadays many people choose to eat healthy food.
D. It is affected by different cultures around the world.
E. So our background and environment play a great role in what we eat.
F. Cheap food in one country may be quite expensive in another country.
G. The food that we choose to eat is selected for a number of different reasons.
