In Ghana, dinner is usually from four in the afternoon to six in the evening. But there are no strict rules
about time. Whenever a guest arrives, a family offers food. When you go to a home, the person who
receives guests takes you to the living room first. At this time everyone welcomes you. Then you go to
the dinning room. There you wash your hands in a bowl of water. All the food is on the table.
In Ghana you usually eat with your fingers. You eat from the same dish as everyone else. But you eat
from one side of the dish only. It is not polite to get food from the other side of the dish. After dinner,

Xi"an is famous all over the world for the terracotta warriors and horses. In 1974, when some
farmers were digging a well, they found some brown pottery fragments(陶器碎片), then we discovered
the greatterracotta warriors and horses.
Some historical books wrote that Emperor Qin Shihuang built a big tomb for himself. He also buried a
lot of terracotta warriors and horses. However, for technical reasons, the major part of the tomb couldn"t
open today. It is still standing 76 meters high against the Mt. I.ishan and facing the Huishui River.
After 20 years of careful excavation<挖掘)three underground vaults opened to the public in 1979,
1989, and 1994, displaying thousands of terracotta warriors, horses and chariots, all arrang ed in battle
formations.
Vault l, built with earth and wood, is about 210 meters long, 60 meters wide and 4.6 to 6.5 meters
high. In this area of 12,600 square meters, six thousand life-sized warriors and horses of terracotta were
found in different lines. The troops were of a fairly uniform height of l.8 meters. They helmets and armor
and carry real bows and arrows.

pollution. Factories must now clean their water before it 7 away, and they mustn"t blow dirty smoke
into the air. We need to do many other things. We can put 8 things in the dustbin and not throw it on
the ground. We can go to work by bus or with our friends in 9 car. If there are 10 people driving,
there will be less pollution. Rules are not enough. Every person must help to fight pollution.
