  11. Castles The printing press was invented in Germany. There are very few drinking fountains in Germany because most people prefer sparkling water to tap water. Volkswagen, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, and Audi are all types of cars that originated in Germany. To wish for good luck, Germans don’t cross their fingers; they “press the thumb” (fold a thumb in, and close fingers on it). On many German highways there is no speed limit, so people can drive as fast as they want. When leaving an elevator, Germans say good-bye to the other riders even if they did not talk to them during the ride. German adults like to garden. Even if they live in an apartment, they might rent or own a small garden plot in or near the city. Some of the world’s greatest composers—Bach, Beethoven, Wagner, Mendelssohn, Handel, and Schumann—came from Germany. German kids usually have only one brother or sister, or they live alone with their parents. Both parents often work, and young kids stay in day care or with grandparents. After school, kids have lunch, do their homework, and hang out with their friends. Older children are expected to help with chores at home, such as cleaning their room or setting the table for dinner. In large cities, most families live in apartments because houses are very expensive. Houses in the countryside are usually bigger and have more space. Families in the country often have more children than families in cities.
