Water resources in China are unevenly distributed. Generally speaking, the south is rich in water while the north is short of this resource; and the east is rich in water whereas the west l
acks it. With the increase of population and the development of economy, the problem of water shortage in the north is getting even more serious. One solution is to divert water from one drainage basin to another, namely, from south to north. The South-to-North Water Diversion Project has the east, middle and west lines. The three lines can be developed by several stages according to national economic development and the existing financial capacity. Today, the east and middle lines have been constructed, while the west line is for a long-term plan.

For example, the Americans read 7 books a year on average, and the French 8.4. Statistics also show that only 1.3% of the Chinese people think they read enough while 53.1% admit that they read too little.
The Chinese people look on tea drinking as an art, which incorporates a wide range of knowledge; the taste of tea might be light, yet the meaning is rich and deep. The Chinese people have the long fostered custom of presenting a cup of tea. They treat guests with tea as a sign of respect, regardless of whether they are thirsty or not, and guests drinking the tea feel refreshed and energetic. Educated people treat their guests arriving at night with tea instead of wine, a practice highly appreciated by the literati. In some places in China, there is a custom of presenting tea three times to guests, as a sign of welcome, then of hospitality, and finally of good wishes. Presenting tea to guests demonstrates not only hospitality but also one’s respect for the guests.

Respecting the aged and loving the young is a traditional Chinese virtue. For thousands of years, people have always considered it a social responsibility and behaviour norm. Mencius in the Warring States Period said that one should respect the elderly relatives of other people as one’s own, and take care of others’ children as one’s own. In China, those
who ignore these virtues will not only be criticised by public opinions, but also be punished by law. It is the pleasant virtue of respecting the aged and loving the young that provides a firm social base for the development of the Chinese nation.
