Chinese government has decided to give up the rules of food with no checking .According to the Xinhua News, from September 17th , 2008, Chinese government decided to give up the rules of food with no checking. Many people said yes to it. The officer said that these days, the food safety accident about children milk of Sanlu made the government decide to give it up. In order to keep the food safe and people healthy, Chinese government said that all the food must be checked. The rule of food with no checking made in 1999 was given up from that day.

　　“I think if the companies get the food with no checking, they will never check their food. It gives them the chance of making the food of poor quality,” an old man said in the shop. “ I hope our government not only gives it up, but also makes some strong rules to manage the companies,” a young woman told us. “ The important point is our government should send officers to the companies and check their food every time,” a shop owner said. A young expert of food safety said, “ The department of government should take the food from the shop or supermarket and check, not ask them to send. In that way, we can get the real checking.”

　　But in order to keep people’s health, the government asks the officers to check all the food before they are sent to the shop or supermarket. That means all the food must be checked before they are sold.

American Classroom Rules

1. If the teacher asks a question, you should give an answer. If you do not understand the question, you should put up your hand and ask the teacher to repeat the question. If you don’t know the answer , it’s all right to tell the teacher that you don’t know . Then he or she knows what you need to learn.

2. There is no excuse for not doing your homework. If you can not go to school, you should call your teacher or your classmate and ask for the homework. It is your responsibility to find out what homework you have missed. It is not the teacher’s job to remind you of missed homework.
