1 Chopsticks SAMPLE STIMULUS Chopsticks are very important in the daily life of the Chinese. Chinese people have been using chopsticks for more than 3,000 years. Chopsticks can be made of different materials. Bamboo and wooden chopsticks are the most popular ones used in Chinese homes. However, in restaurants they are mainly made of plastic or are disposable. Usually people do not put chopsticks upright into a bowl because it is a custom used only in offerings to the dead. If you are really interested in chopsticks, you may want to visit the Chopstick Museum in Shanghai. The museum has over 1,000 pairs of chopsticks.
