Those of us who do know English food realize that at its best it can be really very good. On the other hand it is true to say that it is sometimes terrible. Part of the problem is that we are not really interested in food——we eat to live, we don't live to eat. So we don't generally spend the necessary time and effort needed to cook really good meals or ready prepared food which only, needs heating up before eating.
You can find the best English food in the country away from large towns, where life is slower and people not in such a hurry. But more visitors come to London, they come because they are interested in shopping and sightseeing(观光). They do not come because of food, so why should they complain about it ?

When visiting Beijing, the Palace Museum is a must-see for many people.
Last year, the museum received 14.2 million visitors, which is twice the number of visitors in 2002. This year it is expected to increase by 10 percent. Compared with other popular museums around the world, the number of visitors at the Palace Museum is very high. Last year the Louvre(罗浮宫) in Paris welcomed 8.8 million visitors and the British Museum in London received 5.8 million.
A large number of visitors can bring a lot of money from ticket sales. But there are also worries that people will do demage(破坏) to relics(文物) and old buildings.
To solve the problem, some people suggested taking cultural objects out of the Palace Museum. In this way, visitors coming for ancient buildings and cultural objects will go to different places. “It is a sign of progress. Letting more people see these treasures is more important than keeping them in their original(原始的) place,” said Song Xiangguang, a professor at Peking University.
However, Shan Jixiang, director of the Palace Museum, doesn’t agree on this idea. He thinks that the most important thing in protecting the Palace Museum is to keep it complete. “The 1.8 million cultural relics and the historical buildings are two key parts of the museum. They can’t be separated.” he said.
Shan said that they are planning to increase the space that is open to the public. This will not only feed visitors’ curiosity(好奇), but also spread them out so they are not putting too much pressure on one area.
Shan also wanted to set up an appointment system. “ If visitors make an appointment before they come, we can make better and different visiting routes(路线) for them.” Shan said.
【小题1】How many visitors did the Palace Museum welcome in 2002?
A.14.2 million | B.8.8 million | C.5.8 million | D.7.1 million |
A.To let more people see the relics. | B.To bring less damage to the relics. |
C.To make more money from ticket sales. | D.To keep the Palace Museum original. |
A.分离 | B.破坏 | C.偷窃 | D.压迫 |
A.the Palace Museum has an appointment system now. |
B.relics are the only important part of the Palace Museum. |
C.the Louvre welcomed the most visitors in the world last year. |
D.Shan thought that more areas of the palace should be open to public. |

“An old village woman in her seventies from Zhenjiang Province rented a small house in Shanghai and let visitors to the World Expo live there for free while she slept on a little couch. Her kindness moved(感动) countless people.” Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao said so at the Expo 2010 Shanghai China on October 31 when it ended.
It is a true story. The heroine of it is Ying Miaofang, an old woman from a village of Zhuji City in Shaoxing of Zhejiang Province. “I rented a house in Shanghai and received more than 330 Expo visitors during three months’ time. My house was never empty during that period.” Ying told reporters. She also said it was worth helping so many people to visit the Shanghai World Expo and she was praised by Premier Wen.
In the late of last May. Ying Miaofang paid 1,800yuan per month to rent a small house near Changning Road in Shanghai, and spent more money on a new air conditioner, a refrigerator, a TV set and other things. She published her phone number in the newspaper and opened the house for Expo visitors for free on June 23.
Besides providing a free living place., Ying got up very early every morning to buy food, cook breakfast, clean rooms and wash clothes for those guests. Many of her guests wanted to pay some money to her when they left, but she refused. In order to support the Shanghai Would Expo, Ying spent about 20 thousand yuan in all, which could not be regarded as a little money for a woman from a village.
