At present, the take-out industry has become a popular consumption pattern. Apart from (buy) food from take-out stores, consumers can order food at different times and in multiple places the help of the network. While we tend to think of take-out food as something originating in the modern era (时代) as a result of our "too busy to prepare my own meal" lifestyle, the (true) is quite the opposite.

The concept of take-out food can be traced back to both ancient Greece and ancient Rome. In the ancient Greco-Roman world, eating at home was highly (usual) for poor people. Because these people could not afford a private kitchen in their house to cook meals for (they), they had to buy (prepare) food from market and roadside stalls. Thus, was called "thermopolium" came into being. The word thermopolium literally meant "a place where something hot (sell)" at that time. It was either an ancient form of a take-out restaurant an outdoor service counter that offered ready-to-eat food.

Over the years, archaeologists have (constant) discovered a number of thermopolia in Pomeii and Herculaneum, two towns that were destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. In one thermopolium, the remains of cloth bags containing around one thousand coins were discovered, certainly showing the popularity of the establishment.

We finally found a(n)4 and, as we took it, my brother noticed a black car5 to the side of the road. A young man holding a mobile phone was standing nearby, trying to6 someone. My brother stopped to ask the man if he needed7.

And he did. He had a8 tire (轮胎). With a wrench (扳手), my brother started to help him9 the tire. The young man said that this had been a10week for him; earlier a minor car accident, and now this flat tire. But he called us "A breath of fresh air" and kept11 us and tried to give $20 to us. "No," my brother said. "We were never12 to even get on that bridge. We took a wrong turn and met you. Thank you for turning our mistake into a13 to serve."

I watched my brother through the whole14. He was able to turn his anger for the mistake into15 energy. He was able to see a chance to help in a negative situation.

How to do it

Theoretically (理论上), any routing is possible, but knowing how the   RTW booking system works will make your trip cheaper. For example, the Star Alliance (联盟) has 27 airlines which fly to 1,185 airports in 185 countries, and offers a RTW ticket with a maximum of 15 stops. But there are rules: you must follow one global direction and you must start and finish in the same country.

When to go

The weather will never be ideal in all of your stops. If a Himalaya hike is your highlight, do not land in Nepal mid-monsoon (季风中) season; if you want to swim with whale sharks off the coast of Western Australia, be there between April and July. In general, city sightseeing can be done year-round but outdoor adventures are more reliant on — and enjoyable in — the right weather.

The classic (and cheapest) RTW tickets flit between a few big cities, for example, London — Bangkok — Singapore — Sydney — LA. If you want to link more offbeat (另类的) places, prices will climb considerably. The cost of the ticket is based on the total distance covered or the number of countries visited. Your daily outgoings will be far higher in Europe and North America than in South-East   Asia. Indonesia, Bolivia and India are particularly cheap.

A. Where to go

B. How long will you need

C. So, focus on what you want to do most and research conditions there.

D. You could travel around the world in a weekend if you flew non-stop.

E. Also, if budget (预算) is an issue, spend more time in less expensive countries.

F. But booking a round-the-world (RTW) trip can be a complex (复杂的) business.

G. The most economical (经济的) way is to buy a RTW air ticket that uses one airline alliance.

The desert lies about 800 kilometers to the west of Beijing in the Inner Mongolia autonomous region (自治区) and the greening efforts have also controlled desertification (沙漠化) in the rest of the area.

The project, which began about 30 years ago, can be looked to as an example of efforts to advance green development, in order to create harmony between humans and nature, and leave a better environment for future generations.

The success of the project, which has been praised by the UN Environment Programme as an "eco-pioneer", sets an example for successful desertification control and ecosystem improvement based on effective government policies, supported by investment (投资) in the eco-industry and combined with the efforts of local farmers. These three aspects are key to the success of the "Kubuqi model".

Elion, a private ecology (生态) and investment company, has invested about 38billion yuan ($5.82 billion) in the Kubuqi desert-greening project since 1988 helping to lift about 102,000 local farmers out of poverty. For example, the locals grow a drought-tolerant (耐旱) plant, Chinese licorice, which is the most used herb in traditional Chinese medicine. The plant helps enrich the desert soil, with the bacteria around the roots of the plants producing nitrogen(氮气).   Besides, Cistanche, another type of drought-tolerant herb, was introduced after the successful planting of licorice. Under the company's guidance and with the local government's support, the local people benefit from the   "environmental wealth".

More companies should be encouraged to apply the "Kubuqi model" in other desert control projects in Inner Mongolia and neighboring Gansu province, where the climate conditions are similar but not quite the same, so as to further gain experience and enrich the model in practice. Showing it can be successfully applied in other areas will help promote the model worldwide.

Our emotion is reflected vividly in the lips. Lips may visibly be out of shape in unusual emotions. In some cases, people's lips turn red to express they can't control their emotion. Additionally, people may not say anything but unwillingly accept something with the corners of their mouth pointed downward. Therefore, our lips show a lot of information. Once you realize these, you can help others in an emotional situation.

The lips are highly sensitive to touch and temperature, and they are also highly reactive to our emotional states. The lips react in real time to changing emotions. So, when people receive bad news or see a terrible event, the lips look pale.

Lip biting is one of the ways that we comfort ourselves. Sometimes a dry mouth will cause us to do that, but more often it's a way of reducing stress. Stress can also cause the lips to move awkwardly or the smile to look tense or forced. Certain drugs can also cause similar situations. Unfortunately, these behaviors may be misunderstood, and someone may be thought to be less trusted or confident.

As I noted in What Every BODY Is Saying, the human body shows in real time when there is emotional comfort and discomfort, and the lips can help us to understand that others may be struggling and need our attention. And, while many of us tend to focus on the eyes, faces etc. for information about emotional states, don't ignore the lips, as they are even more likely to show what the heart hides.

As I walk toward the kitchen, I'm greeted by my mother standing over the cooker. She effortlessly cooks a dish that mixes Western and Eastern styles, a beloved breakfast classic in our family. This is my grandmother's recipe(食谱).

Since my grandmother's passing, I've become more aware of my mother's aging and her devotion to cooking for us. She has cooked for her family for more than 30 years, dividing her time between three countries — Korea, Canada and Germany. When my parents visit us from Korea, they stay with us for several months. My mother helps around the house, showing her cooking skills to provide delicious meals for me, my partner and our kids. In every other year, she and my dad will travel to Berlin to spend a couple of weeks with my sister and her partner.

According to Statista, most Canadians report spending between 31 and 60 minutes preparing an average weekday dinner for themselves and others in their houses. Ten percent stated that they spend more than an hour preparing their evening meal. My mother belongs to that 10 percent.

Her cooking goes beyond the kitchen, starting with careful grocery shopping trips where she examines produce and finds the best deals. She takes everyone's preferences and needs into account. The meal she creates becomes a ritual (仪式), bringing the family together to connect and share. Helping her out in the kitchen requires a great deal of patience. Yet, I know it's her way of expressing love. As I prepare the vegetables, she notices that my carrots are not evenly sized. She pushes me aside to take over the task. "Just do the dishes."
