your teacher is an idiot for assigning this question.
I very well know that chinese people in the north, especially the northeasten part eat a lot of rice. In fact, the peasants living in the north have often nothing to eat except for rice.
Dumplings are actually rarely eaten by the farmers in china now. Living conditions in china have fallen a lot in the past 40 years and dumplings are pretty much only eaten during chinese new years.
once again, your teacher is an idiot. ]
"China’s North
Region’s characteristics: geography, climate, agriculture
China’s North has two very long and distinct seasons (winter and summer) with short transitional periods in between. Winters are dry and cold, with temperatures often below freezing. Summers provide intense heat and rain. Its diverse terrain (hills, valleys and rivers) give variety to the region’s agriculture.
Due to the extremely dichotomous climate, the land’s produce is hearty: mainstays of wheat and corn, especially important to the Northern China economy, dominate the northerner’s dietary needs. Crops are then manufactured into wheat-flour for use in common cuisine: noodles, stuffed buns, dumplings and steamed bread are just a few of the wheat products consumed in the provinces of this region. Although little rice is grown in this region, other hardy plants such as barley, millet, soybeans, cabbage, squash and apples predominately appear in northern Chinese agriculture and cooking."
