They also like in-flight shopping. British and German people spend half their time chatting to strangers. Australian people like drinking,with 36 percent passengers drinking on the plane.
Yogurt became New York State's official state snack. "Making yogurt as the official state snack will continue to raise public awareness (意识) of the economic and healthy benefits of yogurt and the dairy (乳制品 ) industry," the office of Governor Andrew Cuomo said to Reuters. Some other states in the US also have their official snacks. South Carolina has boiled peanuts,Texas has tortilla chips (墨西哥炸玉米 片) and salsa (萨尔萨辣酱) ,Illinois has popcorn and Utah has Jell-0(果冻) .
Students at Yancheng Teachers University,Jiangsu,are now not allowed to use their cell phones in class.

Nowadays after class,Sabrina Schramm no longer discusses TV dramas,sports or clothes with her classmates. Instead,the eighth-grader from Texas,US, talks about what she wants to do in the future.
In fact,all the eighth-graders in Texas may be talking about it. According to a new state law,before the school year ends,students should decide to learn one of five areas of study in high school.
