Eight Treasures of Laba
Laba Porridge (腊八粥) is known to every Chinese. It marks a special day. Laba Festival, which falls on the 8th day of the 12th lunar (农历的) month.
People eat Laba Porridge on that day. The porridge is also called "Eight Treasures Porridge", because it usually has at least eight things. Rice, beans, dried fruits and peanuts are very popular in the porridge.
On the night before the festival, mothers are busy preparing their porridge. They cook it over a slow fire from midnight until
the next morning. When kids wake up in the morning, they smell the aroma (香味) and rush to the kitchen to have a feast.
Another custom on Laba Festival is to prepare Laba vinegar (醋) for dumplings on Spring Festival Eve. People peel garlic (蒜) and put it into a jar filled with vinegar. As the days go by, the garlic turns green and gains a special flavor. Some people also like to Pickle (腌) meat on Laba Festival.
Laba Festival was a time for the ancient Chinese to pray for the harvest and good luck in the coming year After Taba Festival many people start to prepare for the Chinese New Year.

Head· when you want to show your confidence，keep your head level(平直)．If you are monitor in class, you can also take on this position(姿势)when you want your words to be taken seriously. However, to be friendly in listening or speaking, you must move your head a little to one side．
Legs．Your legs will move around a lot more than normal when you are nervous or telling lies．If you are at interviews, try to keep them still.
Mouth. When you are thinking，you often purse your lips(撅起嘴)．You might also use this position to hold back angry words you don’t wish to say．However, it will probably still be noticed，and people will know you’re not pleased.What plays an important part in communication according to the passage?
In the third paragraph, which word means “feeling sure about one’s own ability ?

An important question about eating out is who pays for the meal. If a friend of yours asks you to have lunch with him, you might simply say something like this, “I’m afraid I’ll have to find a cheap place because I don’t have 1) _______ ________.” The other person may say, "OK., I’ll meet you at McDonald’s. "This means that the two agree to go Dutch, that is, each person pays for himself. He may also say, "Oh, no. I want to take you to lunch at Johnson’s ", or "I want you to try the steak(牛排) there. It’s great. "This means the person wants to pay for both of you. If you feel friendly towards this person, you can go with him, and you needn’t pay for the meal. You may simply say, "Thank you. That would be very nice."
American customs(习俗) about who pays for a date(约会) are much the same as those in other parts of the world.3) In the old days, American women wanted men to pay for all the meals. But, today, a woman who is a university(大学) student or is working in the business world will usually pay her own way during the date. If a man asks her to dinner, outside the normal working hours ,it means "come as my guest(客人). " So you can see it is better for you to make the question clear at the very beginning.
