Matta 2

We all have colleagues who like to speak their minds. Perhaps we could even call these people aggressive or harsh. However, there are definitely other pieces of vocabulary we could use here. Today we're looking at the word "direct", "to speak one's mind", and "to sugar coat" something.

From fast-food counters to Michelin-starred restaurants, the hamburger is much loved in the Western diet, but where did it come from?

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines a hamburger as both "ground beef" and "a sandwich consisting of a patty of hamburger" on a bun. Although these might be the simplest forms of a hamburger, the sandwich is often eaten with other things added, such as lettuce, cheese, sauces and even other meats.

But this popular food didn't start out with all the extras. In fact, it's thought that one of the earliest forms of the hamburger was closer to a steak tartare — raw minced steak mixed with egg.

While a recipe from the Roman Empire suggests the earliest version of this meal, some believe that it came from Mongolian horsemen, who would place beef under their saddles while riding, so that by the end of the day it was tender enough to eat raw.

However, others say these riders placed meat under their saddles only to help heal their horses' sores, and any meat prepared this way would be too dirty to be edible.

A later version is thought to have come from the German city of Hamburg, where chefs around the 17th or 18th century cooked minced beef with onions and breadcrumbs. This came to be known in English as the "Hamburg steak," and made its way to the US during the 19th century, where it was later called the "hamburger."

Although it isn't known who first thought to put this minced meat on bread, adding a bun made the hamburger popular as a sandwich in the US. The first fast-food hamburger chain — named White Castle — was opened in 1921, and still sells its famous square-shaped hamburgers to this day.

Now, hamburgers can be found worldwide thanks to popular American fast-food restaurants such as McDonald's, Burger King and Wendy's. In 2012, PBS reported that an estimated 50 billion hamburgers are eaten in the US alone every year.

From Rome to Rochester: The History of the Hamburger

Negara Indonesia kaya dengan keberagaman. Sebanyak sekitar 5% dari penduduk Indonesia beretnis tionghoa, dan tradisi perayaan tahun baru imlek menjadi salah satu hari raya yang ikut memeriahkan banyak daerah di tanah air Indonesia. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa Indonesia merupakan negara demokrasi yang saling menghargai dan mencintai keberagaman. Sekalipun beragam dalam berbagai latar belakang, tapi Indonesia tetap satu. Itulah "Bhinneka Tunggal Ika," yang menjadi semboyan bangsa Indonesia yang tertulis pada lambang negara. Mari kita mengenal tradisi dari perayaan tahun baru imlek. MERDEKA!

大新自己开车，从北京，带妈妈去海南。北京到海南非常远，有2600多公里。有的人会问，为什么不坐飞机呢？坐飞机更快，更容易，更轻松。可是，大新觉得开车更安全。因为那个时候还有新冠疫情。坐飞机的话，妈妈可能生病。大新和妈妈从北京出发，第一天和第二天，每天都要走800到900公里，妈妈很累，后来，他们就走得慢一点儿。每次看见服务区，他们就到服务区休息，带妈妈做一些简单的运动，跟妈妈说话。他们一般在车上吃饭。第三天的晚上，因为下雨了，他们在梧州的一个酒店住了一个晚上。第四天，他们到了徐闻港。因为海南是一个岛，所有从中国大陆到海南的人和车都必须从徐闻港坐渡船到海南。等船的人很多，他们等了两个小时才上船。九十分钟以后，他们到了海口。大新和妈妈是最后下船的，因为妈妈的腿脚不方便。他们在海口又休息了一下才在开车回家，他们的家在三亚的亚龙湾，还要开几个小时的车才能到。终于，在第四天下午五点半左右，大新和妈妈到了海南的家。大新觉得妈妈特别棒，这么远的路，妈妈一直有好心情。终于到家了，大新和妈妈都可以好好休息休息了。
