Mrs. Smith is an unusual teacher. Once she told each student to bring along a few potatoes in plastic bag. On each potato the students had to write a name of a person that they hated And the next day, every child brought some potatoes. Some had two potatoes;some three;some up to five.

Mrs. Smith then told the children to carry the bags everywhere they went, even to the toilet, for two weeks. As day after day passed, the children started to complain(抱怨)about the awful smell of the rotten(腐烂的)potatoes.

Those children who brought five potatoes began to feel the weight trouble of the bags. After two weeks, the children were happy to hear that the game was finally ended. Mrs. Smith asked,“How did you feel while carrying the potatoes for two weeks?” The children started complaining about the trouble loudly.

Then Mrs. Smith told them why she asked them to play the game. She said,“This is exactly the situation when you carry your hatred(仇恨)for somebody inside your heart. The terrible smell of the hatred will pollute your heart and you will carry something unnecessary with you all the time. If you cannot stand the smell of the rotten potatoes for just two weeks, can you imagine how heavy it would be to have the hatred in your heart for your lifetime?

Tea is also important in Japan.The Japanese have a special way of serving tea called tea ceremony(茶道).It is very old and full of meaning.Everything must be done in a special way in the ceremony.There is even a special room for it in Japanese homes.

Another tea-drinking country is England.In England, the late afternoon is “tea time”.Most people have cups of tea then.The English usually make tea in a teapot and drink it with milk or sugar.They also eat cakes, cookies and a few sandwiches at tea time.This is the so-called “Afternoon Tea” in Britain.

In the United States, people drink tea mostly for breakfast or after meals.Americans usually use tea bags to make their tea.Tea bags are faster and easier than making tea in teapots.In summer, many Americans drink cold tea—3“iced tea”.Sometimes they drink canned iced tea, just as soda.
