Eating
Consumption of food is a universal necessity. Different cultures have developed different methods to
accomplish the task. It is interesting to discover these differences and learn new ways to do things.
European cultures developed cutlery (knives, forks, and spoons) to enable people to efficiently eat their
food. Correct use of this tools changes with the times-what was polite in 1800 may not be considered
proper manners today. China developed the chopstick as an efficient tool for eating. Mastery of the use
of chopsticks can be difficult for the person not raised in the culture. The attempts of a novice to use
chopsticks can be very amusing to the watcher, but frustrating for the hungry diner. Space travel has
created new challenges for consuming food. Squeeze bottles and other unique packaging have enabled
space travelers to get their needed nutrition. Chopsticks and forks do not work well in space.

Game of Bridge
The ebb and flow of laughter and silence fills the room as four old friends gather to engage in a round of
Bridge playing. For the beginner, Bridge can be complicated, but with time, effort, and a good teacher,
even the novice can become proficient. Composed of two main parts, bidding and playing, Bridge
requires the player's undivided attention. The dealer deals the entire deck of playing cards evenly
between the for players, with each person receiving thirteen cards. In the bidding portion of the game,
the four suits of cards in the deck are ranked highest to lowest as follows: spades, hearts, diamonds, and
finally clubs. However, during play all the suits of cards are considered equals, and they go from highest
to lowest from the ace being high to the two card being low. The highest number of tricks wins. A trick is
one card played by each player for a total of four. After the lead player lays down his/her card, the other
players follow suit, if possible. The highest card within the four "same suit" cards played wins the trick
and picks up all four cards. if a player cannot follow suit, he/she plays any card, but to make the game
more interesting and challenging, one suit is named a trump suit which means that if a player plays a
card from the trump suit, it always wins the trick. If two cards from the trump suit are played, the
highest card within the trump suit wins the trick. obviously the team with the most tricks wins the hand.

The Water Cycle
Water is needed to sustain practically all life functions on planet Earth. A single drop of this compound is
composed of an oxygen atom that shares its electrons with each of the two hydrogen atoms. The cycle
starts when precipitation, such as rain, snow, sleet, or hail, descends from the sky onto the ground.
Water that is not absorbed immediately from the precipitation is known as runoff. The runoff flows
across the land and collects in groundwater reservoirs, rivers, streams, and oceans. Evaporation takes
place when liquid water changes into water vapor, which is a gas. Water vapor returns to the air from
surface water and plants. Ultimately, condensation happens when this water vapor cools and changes
back into droplets of liquid. In fact, the puffy, cotton clouds that we observe are formed by
condensation. When the clouds become heavily laden with liquid droplets, precipitation ensues.
