这里是one minute Chinese, 中文一分钟，每天都不同！ 我们一起听一分钟，想一分钟，说一分钟，今天的话题，中国人的开门七件事。
在中国，有句俗话说：开门七件事，柴米油盐酱醋茶（chai2 mi3 you2 yan2 jiang4 cu4 cha2, lit. Firewood,rice,oil,salt,vinegar,soy and tea）。柴是柴火，有了他就可以生火取暖，做饭。米就是大米这些粮食(liang2shi, grain)，油和盐，都是为了做饭可以更香，酱和醋呢，是中国人发明的调料(tiao2liao4,flavouring)，他们发现细菌(xi4jun1,germ)和粮食在一起，发酵(fa1jiao4,ferment)后，会变成各种好吃的东西。有了他们，中国菜才会那么好吃。 最后一样，茶，过去，这可是只有客人来了才能拿出来的东西，不便宜的。回头一看，中国人早上起床打开门最重要的七件事，全部都和吃有关系，看来吃是中国非常重要的文化了。
