A dog spent the last four years of his life waiting at a crossroad in the Thai city of Khon

There is an old saying in China that goes ， “ The days of the Sanjiu period are the

coldest days.” “Sanjiu period”，which is in Minor Cold，refers to the third nineday period

(the 19th to the 27th day) after the day of the Winter Solstice( 冬至 )．There are many

different customs related to Minor Cold in China.

Eating hotpot

During Minor Cold people should eat some hot food to benefit the body and defend

against the cold weather. Winter is the best time to have hotpot and braised mutton with soy

sauce. But it is important to notice that too much spicy food may cause health problems.

Eating huangyacai

In Tianjin，there is a custom to have huangyacai，a kind of Chinese cabbage，during

Minor Cold. There are large amounts of vitamins A and B in huangyacai. As huangyacai is

fresh and tender，it is fit for frying，roasting and braising.

Eating glutinous rice(糯米饭)

According to tradition，the Cantonese eat glutinous rice in the morning during Minor

Cold. Cantonese people add some fried preserved(腌制的) pork，sausage and peanuts and

mix them into the rice.

Eating vegetable rice

In ancient times，people in Nanjing took Minor Cold quite seriously，but as time went

by，the celebration of Minor Cold gradually disappeared. However ，the custom of eating

vegetable rice is still followed today. The rice is steamed and is unspeakably delicious.

Among the ingredients(原料)，aijiaohuang (a kind of green vegetable)，sausage and salted

duck are the specialties in Nanjing.

31．This text may be taken from the _____ column (栏目) of a newspaper.

A．travel B．culture C．fashion D．science

Everybody, at some point in their lives, has experienced failure. It could be something as

simple as not getting the job you wanted, or getting fewer marks even after hard work. But

what makes you is not your failure, but how you get back up after being hit.

Once, a young school boy was caught in a fire accident in his school and was assumed

that he would not live. His mother was told that he was sure to die, for the terrible fire had

destroyed the lower half of his body. Even if he were to survive, he would be lame

throughout his life.

But the brave boy did not want to die nor did he want to be lame. Much to the

amazement of the doctor, he did survive. But unfortunately from his waist down, he had no

motor ability. His thin legs just hung there, lifeless. Eventually he left the hospital. But his

determination to walk was unshakable. At home, when he was not in bed, he had to stay in a

wheelchair. One day, he threw himself from the chair and pulled himself across the grass,

dragging his legs behind him. He reached the fence, raised himself up and then began

dragging himself along the fence, firmly determined. He did this every day, with faith in

himself that he would be able to walk unaided. With his iron determination, he did develop

the ability to stand up, then to walk on and off, then to walk by himself and then to run.
