【正确答案】The Chopsticks For several thousand years, we Chinese have always regarded chopsticks as the easiest and most effective utensil to bring food into the mouth. As early as the Zhou Dynasty, chopsticks were used to pick up meat and vegetable dishes while rice was eaten with one's hands. The chopsticks, which are of more or less the same size, are made of different types of materials such as bamboo, wood and jade, etc. Chinese have an artistic way of using chopsticks. Different people use chopsticks in a different way just like their signatures which are not completely the same. Chinese people usually can use chopsticks at will to pick up a grain of rice, a pea or even a slippery round mass of food.
