A brief
history of Chopsticks
．
We've discussed the story of knife
and fork
，
but there's
another set of
utensils
（器皿）
used
by billions of people around the world-and it has
a truly
，
ancient
past
．
The Chinese have been
wielding chopsticks since at least 1200 B
．
C
．
and by
A
．
D
．
500 chopsticks
（
1
）
had swept
<
/p>
（

）
the Asian continent from
Vietnam to
Japan
．
From their humble beg
innings
（
2
）
as
cooking
utensils to
paper-wrapped bamboo sets
at the sushi counter
，
there's more to chopsticks than
meets
the eye
．
Chopsticks
（
3<
/p>
）
were
developed
（
deve
lop
）
about 5000 years ago in
China
．
The
（
4
）
earliest
（
early
）
versions were
probably twigs used to get
food from
cooking pots
．
When resources
became scare
，
around 400
B
．
C
．
，
crafty
chefs
figured
out
（
5
）
how
to conserve fuel by
chopping food into smaller
pieces that
required less cooking fuel
，
and besides
，
it could be
cooked more
quickly
．
This new
method of cooking made it unnecessary to have
knives at the
dinner table-a practice
that also matched the non-violent teachings of
Confucius
（孔子）
，
（<
/p>
6
）
as
expressed in one of his numerous
quotations
：
and
upright man keeps well away from both the
slaughterhouse
（屠宰房）
and the
kitchen
．
And he
allows no knives on his table
．
，
he believed
that knives' sharp points
evoked
（诱发）
violence
（
7
）
killing
（
kill
）
the
happy
，
contented mood that should reign during
meals
．
Thanks in part to his
teachings
，
chopstick use quickly became widespread throughout
Asia
．
Different cultures adopted
different chopstick styles
．
Perhaps in a nod to
Confucius
，
Chinese chopsticks featured a blunt rather than
pointed end
．
In
Japan
，
chopsticks
were 8 inches long for men and 7 inches long for
women
．
In 1878 the
Japanese became the first
（
8
）
to
create
（
create<
/p>
）
the now-ubiquitous
disposable set
，
typically made of bamboo or
wood
．
Wealthy diners could
eat with
ivory
，
jade
，
coral
，
brass or agate
versions
，
while the most
privileged used
silver
sets
．
It was believed that
the silver would corrode and turn black
（
9
）
if/when
it came into
contact with poisoned food
．
Throughout
history
，
chopsticks have
enjoyed a symbiotic relationship with
another staple of Asian
cuisine
：
rice
．
At first
glance
，
you'd think that
rice
wouldn't make the
cut
，
but in Asia most rice
is of the short- or medium-grain
variety
．
The
starches
（淀粉质食品）
in these
rices create a cooked product that is
gummy and clumpy
，
unlike the fluffy and distinct grains of Western
long- grain
rice
．
（
10
）
As
chopsticks come
together to lift steaming bundles of sticky
rice
，
it's a
match made in heaven
．

In 1860

William Dockwra
started a public service that

letter anywhere in London
．
His system was quickly
（

J
with Dockwra in
charge
．
It was far from a
perfect system
，
（

C
with
seemingly improper charges that made
it unreasonably expensive to send a
letter
．
Worse
still
，
recipients were
expected to pay
．
As you
might imagine
，
th
is
（

G
some problems-either
people weren't home or flat-out refused to
pay
．
The system
just didn't work
，
but it
remained in place for far too
long
．
About 50 years
later
，
to do
better
，
Rolland Hill argued
for putting an end
to the postal
charges and replacing them with a single national
rate of one penny
，
which would be paid by the
sender
．
When the post office
ignored Hill's ideas
，
he
self-published his essay and it quickly
gained
（

< br>
K
among the
public
．
Hill
was
then ordered by Postmaster General Lord Lichfield
to discuss postal reform and
，
during their subsequent
meetings
，
the two men
conceived of a gluy
（
7
）
A
that
could be applied to the envelops to
indicate payment
．
Though it
had gained support
with the public who
longed for a affordably way to connect with
distant friends and
family
，
officials
were still not convinced
．
Thankfully
，
Hill was far
from alone
in his passion for
reform
．
He eventually earned
enough support from other like-
minded
individuals to convince Parliament
to

his
system
．
In 1839
，
Hill
held a competition to design all the postal
facility
．
The
winning stamp

describing the young queen's profile came from one
William Wyon
，
who
based the design on a medal he created to

The concept of
staycation was born at the time of the 2008 market

in the
United States
．
Because of
it
，
many households were
forced

budget
．
The shortage of
money to travel abroad is at the origin
of why many people started to

At the same

，
awareness of
the

tourism

especially
on what concerns the impacts of
transportation

started to
increase too

This allows people's

would if long distances had been

A staycation is a form of
alternative tourism that is fully in line with the
slow tourism
trend
