Have you ever thrown an old mobile phone? And do you know that there's a mobile phone throwing competition in Finland every year?This sport has been around since 2000 though the first national championships took place in Norway in 2004.

In order to recycle old mobile phones, the town of Savonlinna in southeast Finland holds a Mobile Phone Throwing Competition every year.

While competitors cannot throw their own phones, the competition organizers provide hundreds of mobiles to choose from. Last year's winner Ere Karjalainen set a world record with his 101.46m throw. As a prize, he got a chance of drinking and practiced again as his preferred training methods.

Those without a strong throwing arm can enter the freestyle competition. A three﹣person jury (评委) gives scores from one to six, and the thrower with the highest number of points wins.

Once all the day's phones have been thrown, they are taken to a recycling center. They will not be wasted as rubbish. Anyone who offers his phone will have a free chance to take part in the competition while those who don't need to pay eleven dollars per person or five dollars for children of 12 and under.

A. So the organizers encourage people to give away their phones that can't work at all.

B. Then people throw as far as possible from the throwing area.

C. During the competition, the style of the throw are judged (判断) rather than the distance.

D. It may sound crazy to you, but it's actually been developed into a sport.

E. And people can have a little fun from the games.

Dear Wang Fang,

Thank you for your letter. You wrote to ask me about American social customs(风俗) in their dinner party. You are asking the right person. I once lived in America for five years. Now I'll tell you something about it.

It's a good idea to bring a small present when you go to a dinner party. Flowers are always nice, or you may bring a bottle of wine if you know that your friends drink it.

You should arrive(到达) on time or five minutes late. Don't get there early. If you're going to be more than fifteen minutes late, you should call before.

Try to be free at the dinner table. If you don't know about choosing(选择) the right fork or knife, just watch the other people, and follow them. If you still have no idea of what to do, ask the person beside you .

If you like the food, say so. Of course, you'll thank them for the meal and for their kindness. It's also a good idea to send a card to thank them the day after.

Answer the questions

Food is life; it gives us the nourishment(营养) we need to stay alive and be healthy. Usually, we eat because we are hungry or need energy. Brian Wansink, a professor at the University of Illinois, says we also eat certain foods because they make us feel good, and remind us of happy memories. Wansink calls this kind of food comfort food. For some people, ice cream is a comfort food. For others, a bowl of noodles makes them feel good.

How does a food became comfort food? Professor Wansink believes that we connect food with important times, feelings, and people in our lives. "When I was a child, my mother made a kind of delicious soup; I loved it. Now, I often eat this kind of soup when I am tired or worried, and it helps me feel better," says one of Wansink's friends.

Do men and women choose different comfort foods? Wansink's research at the University of Illinois says "yes". In his study, the favourite comfort food for both men and women was ice cream. After this, men usually preferred hot, delicious foods like soup or noodles. Women liked sweet things such as chocolate and candies. Men and women like to eat comfort foods when they are happy, but women eat these foods more when they are sad or worried.
