五十九. Chopsticks
Chopsticks are an ancient way of eating food, and even though they were developed some 5,000 years ago in China, the tradition is still alive around the modern world. There are many reasons for using chopsticks, but probably they developed because using two sticks of wood allows one to get close enough to get the food out of a pot (鍋) without burning themselves.
Although forks and knives and other pointed tools have been introduced to China over the years, chopsticks have remained the main way to eat food. Chopsticks are mostly made from wood, with bamboo being the most widely used. Foreigners like to buy silk chopsticks as gifts.
The Chinese people usually eat from a bowl or small plate They use chopsticks to eat noodles and rice, but Koreans(韓國人)eat their rice with a spoon.
【漢語翻譯】
筷子
筷子(chopsticks)是一種古老的吃飯工具。盡管(even though)筷子是五千多年前在中國發展起來的,這個傳統在當今世界依然是方興未艾。使用筷子有很多原因,但筷子的興起很可能是由于用兩根木制的棍(stick)可以使人在距離鍋足夠近的地方,把食物從鍋里取出來而不會燙傷(burn)自己。
這些年來,盡管刀叉(knife and fork)和其他帶尖的工具已經傳入(introduce)中國,筷子卻仍然是主要的(main)吃飯方式。
筷子大部分是木制的,竹子(bamboo)應用的最廣泛。外國人(foreigner)喜歡購買絲綢(silk)筷子當作禮物。
