Day 1
About six years ago,my grandpa died in a car accident.My grandma felt lonely.She came to Australia from the Netherlands to live with us.She loved cooking and collecting different kitchen things.She didn't use all of them,but she loved seeing her kitchen full of nice cups,glasses and plates.Before she came to Australia,she had to make hard choices.She stood in the kitchen and didn't know what to bring with her and what to leave behind.She spent many hours looking at everything and in the end decided to take a set of plates made of china (瓷).
A few weeks after she came to Australia,a new friend invited her to have dinner in her house and asked her to bring a plate.My grandma didn't know why,but her English was very poor at that time and she couldn't ask clearly what she meant.On that day,she chose her nicest china plate and brought it to her friend's house.She was sure everyone would like it.When she arrived at her friend's house,she proudly put the plate on a table.To her surprise,around her empty plate were plates full of different kinds of foods.“There must be something wrong,” she said to herself.Her friend smiled when she saw her empty plate.“‘Bring a plate’ means ‘bring some food’ in Australia,” her friend said.
After hearing that,Grandma's face turned red.She learned a good lesson that day.Since then,she has never brought an empty plate to anyone's house again.
