4、ve it or not, is a dragon! Do I live in a zoo? No, of course not! I am talking about our Chinese zodiac signs. Depending on the year of your birth, each person has an animal for a sign. Thats why I am a pig and my wife is a dragon.February the 18th is Chinese New Year and 2007 is the year of the pig
5、, so lets take a closer look at this interesting animal. Pigs were first domesticated by man about 9,000 years ago, and are still a very common farm animal in many parts of the world. We dont just use pigs for their meat almost every part of the animal is used. The bones and skin are used for glue a
6、nd footballs. The hair is used for artists brushes and insulation. The fat is used in the manufacture of insecticides, floor waxes, rubber and plastics. Amazingly, pigs are a source of nearly 40 pharmaceutical drugs and their heart valves can be used in surgery to replace human ones. Pigs have also
7、been important in the world of entertainment. In 1995 the film Babe starred a lovable talking pig as its main character. The film won an Oscar and was nominated for 6 more. In England you can even go to watch pig racing. A farmer, Rob Shepherd, has been raising money for charity by staging pig races
8、 on his farm. The events have been very successful. People just dont want to eat pigs, it seems!Pigs also feature in the English language. To say that something is unlikely to happen you can say “Pigs might fly!” A man that thinks men are superior to women is “chauvinist pig”. Hungry? Well then, you
9、 can “pig out” and eat lots of food. And what about if someone rescues you? Well, you can say that they “saved your bacon”. If you, like me, were born in the year of the pig, then you are brave, thoughtful and loyal. The year of the pig is filled with good fortune. Happy Chinese New Year!Part II-BB1

14、ongregating to watch a huge parade of lions, dragons, drums, and ribbon and fan dancers.

Chinese immigr
15、ants first came to London in the mid-19th Century, consisting mainly of seamen involved in the tea trade via Canton. For that reason Cantonese is still spoken more widely in the UK than Mandarin. A more recent wave of immigration took place in the 1960s when many workers came from Hong Kong to find work in the flourishing restaurant business.
