Whenever our family cooks every meal, there will be chopsticks on the table. Everyone in China eats with chopsticks. It can be used to eat any food, such as vegetables, beans, eat, etc. The history of human use of chopsticks has reached 4000 years ago. 

My grandfather told me when I was young that chopsticks have a profound meaning in Chinese culture. Chopsticks are not only used for eating, they also symbolize the harmony of the family, the inheritance of culture and connection between people. Each pair of chopsticks represents unity and equality, and the chopsticks must work closely together to complete the task of picking up food. 

No matter how the times change, as long as we carefully inherit and carry forward, traditional culture will continue, just like the pair of chopsticks, connecting the past, present and future.
