Every day, Vicky traveled by bus between her office and home. She noticed something special about the bus driver. Whenever the passengers（乘客）got on the bus, he would smile at them.
However, Vicky also noticed a passenger who never smiled back at the driver. It seemed that he never had any clean clothes. He often made big noises when he coughed.

The driver looked at Vicky and said, “He’s my guest.”
“Then take back your smile at least. Don’t be so nice to him!”
“Let me tell you about my dog,” the driver said patiently. “Each time the moon shines, my dog barks（狗叫）at it crazily.”

The bags are no harmful to the environment. Humans and animals can safely eat them. Indian company EnviGreen has made a bag with natural materials. It looks and feels just like plastic, but can broken down（分解）easily.

But an EnviGreen bag can naturally break down in less than 180 days.It also breaks down in less than a day in water, and in less than a minute in boiling water. Hedge was happy to show it in his interview, he put an EnviGreen bag in water and ate it with a smile.
There are more than 15,000 tons of plastic waste in India every day. But only 9,000 tons are processed. In China, 3 billion plastic bags are used every day. Maybe the EnviGreen bag could be a solution（解决方法）to be world problem of plastic pollution.

Do the British really get together every afternoon at 4 to sit and drink several cups of tea Ask any of my German students and they will tell you “YES!”But it’s simply not true.
We drink over 150 million cups of tea a day in Britain, but there is no special time for it. “Tea” is widely used as a name for the evening meal. This is more common in Scotland and the north of England but you can hear it all over the country. Usually it is the main meal of the day, eaten between 5 and 7. So, “teatime” refers to（指的是）the meal and not the drink. In the south, the evening meal is often called dinner, however, dinner in the north is the midday meal. In general:
North: Breakfast-Dinner-Teatime
South: Breakfast-Lunch-Dinner
What about tea breaks Surely this is must be a special time for tea Wrong again, I’m afraid. Tea breaks are just an opportunity（机会）to have a rest from work for around 10 minutes. In this time you can drink whatever
you like (which of course includes tea). This is usually with a small snack, like biscuits. The best time for a tea break is around 11a.m. or around 3 p.m.
But what about tea rooms Can I drink tea there Yes! A tea room is the perfect place to go with friends and family to enjoy tea, cakes and sandwiches. This is known as afternoon tea and is usually saved for special occasions（场合）such as a birthday party.
Teatime, tea breaks, afternoon tea…how could you possibly get muddled up

A. only people in northern UK use the word “teatime”
