B.           Dinner customs are different around the world. If you are a guest in Ghana(加納),this information will help you a lot.

         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 receive 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, you wash your hands again in a bowl of water.

        Most meals in Ghana have a dish called fufu. People in Ghana make fufu from the powder(粉末) of some plants. Sometimes they cut the fufu with a saw(鋸子) because it is very hard. You must chew fufu well, or you may get sick. You eat fufu with the fingers of your right hand only.

(  )1. How often can we have a leap year?

A.Every year.             B.Every February 

C.Every four years.        D.Every other year.

A.         Why is 2004 a special year? Because it is a leap year(閏年)! What’s so special about that? Well, leap year happens only once every four years. And it has 366 days instead of the usual 365. In a leap year, we have 29days in February, while in a usual year we have only 28 days.

        Why do we have a leap year? We have a leap year so we can keep the calendar(日歷) in step with the seasons. The calendar is a kind of clock for the whole year. But how long is a year? A calendar year is 365 days. However, a true year is actually 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 46 seconds long. That’s the time it takes the earth to travel around the sun. So every four years we have one more day, and we put it at the end of February, the shortest month of a year. Then we have a leap year.
