There comes a time in a person’s life when they will have to determine what is real from what is fake. Here are a few examples.
Real pearls, when crushed and ground will become a fine white powder regardless of the color on the outside. This is because, while other minerals give pearls their color, they are still primarily made up of calcium.
Real silk will smell like burning hair when you light it on fire. And like real hair, real silk should be washed with shampoo. I have tried this and it is true, but I don’t recommend setting all your silk clothes, or anyone elses, on fire. If you are going to try this at home do so in a safe location.
Lastly, real taxis have to be found. They can be found by employing one or more of the following methods; waving, shouting, jumping, standing in the street or standing in a line at the airport. Real taxi drivers will not get out of their car to come find you. If someone approaches you claiming to be a taxi driver consider your options carefully before you get into a car with them. Additionally, in China real taxi license plates start with the letter B.
