“Restaurants are clearly feeling the pinch (拮据) from the economic crisis”, said Tim Zagat, founder of the survey now in  　　　_　34　  30th year which bases the food, decoration and service ratings for some 2,000 restaurants on feedback from restaurant patrons (食客).

 The influence was not _ _35 __ (limit) to diners, either, the survey found. Restaurant openings declined for the first time since 2003,down to 119 from last year’s 163, and 187 just three years _­ _36___.

Nearly 40 percent of the survey’s 38,000-plus respondents said they were coping _ _37_ _ the shaky economy by eating out less often and by going to __ 38_ _ (expensive) restaurants.

As a matter of fact, high-end diners were hit even harder, with a nearly 10 percent price increase. The findings were one _ _ 39___ (explain) for a number of new burger, pizza and barbecue places that popped up this year, the survey noted. Even well-known chefs such as Alain Ducasse and Jean-Georges Vongerichten opened small restaurants _ _40_ _ noodle shops.

Here's a new warning from health experts: Sitting is deadly. Scientists are increasingly warning that sitting for prolonged periods — even if you also exercise regularly — could be　 1 for your health. And it doesn't matter where the sitting takes place — at the office, at school, in the car or before a computer or TV — just the overall number of hours it 　2　 .

Research is preliminary, but several studies　 3 people who spend most of their days sitting are more likely to be fat, have a heart attack or even die.

In an editorial　 4 this week in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, Elin Ekblom-Bak of the Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences suggested that authorities rethink how they define　 5 activity to highlight the dangers of sitting.

While health officials have issued guidelines　 6 minimum amounts of physical activity, they haven't suggested people try to limit how much time they spend in a seated 　7 .

"After four hours of sitting, the body starts to send　 8 signals," Ekblom-Bak said. She explained that genes regulating the amount of glucoseand fat in the 　9 start to shut down.

Even for people who 　10　 , spending long stretches of time sitting at a desk is still harmful. Tim Armstrong, a physical activity expert at the World Health Organization, said people who exercise every day — 　11 still spend a lot of time sitting — might get more benefit if that exercise were spread across the day,　 12 in a single bout.

That wasn't 　13 news for Aytekin Can, 31, who works at a London financial company, and spends most of his days sitting 　 14　 a computer. Several evenings a week, Can also teaches jiu jitsu, a Japanese martial art 15 wrestling, and also does Thai boxing.

"I'm sure there are some detrimental　 16 of staying still for too long, but I hope that being 　17 when I can helps," he said. "I wouldn't want to think the sitting could be　 18 dangerous."

Still, in a study published last year that tracked more than 17,000 Canadians for about a dozen years, researchers found people who sat　 19 had a higher death risk, independently of whether or not they exercised.

Figures from a US survey in 2003-2004 found Americans spend more than half their time sitting, from working at their desks to sitting in cars.

Experts said more research is needed to　 20 just how much sitting is dangerous, and what might be possible to offset those effects.

Everyone knows what it feels like to be hungry, though few of us

can imagine the pain of starvation． But the new movie Back to 1942,

directed by Feng Xiaogang, who is perhaps China's most clever

commercial movie director, brings this pain to life． For some, Feng may

be too commercial at timcs． But with his new movie Back to1942, Feng

might avoid such criticism． The film, based on a novel by Liu Zhenyun,

makes the audiences aware of China's history and the difficult times our

ancestors faced when more than 3 million people lost their lives in 1942,

a time when China was engaged in the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression （1937—1945） ．

This historic background provides the perfect material to create a wonderful movie． And Feng is no stranger to using exciting elements, such as destructive natural disasters as seen in Aftershock（《唐山大地震》） and thrilling battle scenes as seen in Assembly（《集结号》）． Combined with a strong cast, which includes Xu Fan, Zhang Guoli, Chen Daoming and Zhang Hanyu, it is almost certain that these elements will ensure the movie becomes a major box office hit, at least in China．

But this time, Feng seems to have set his eyes on the international market as well．Joininng the strong Chinese cast are two big names from Hollywood: Tim Robbins who plays a Catholic priest and Adrien Brody who plays American journalist Theodore White． Many of the movie's scenes, like the ones showing the bombing attacks by the Japanese army, are very Hollywood-style, both in terms of their scale and technical level．

But somehow, the movie, like many of its kind, such as White Deer Plain（《白鹿原》）, falls short on generating an emotional impact． It seems to conflrm the old saying "one man dying is a tragedy, but a million deaths is a statistic figure"．

In the end, the movie pictures a legend that will undoubtedly be treasured at home and; most likely, be filed abroad as another lesson in modern Chinese history-but one well worth remembering and learning from．

Feng, famous for directing comedies, has spent 10 years preparing for his latest work． When asked why he had been so determined to make the movie, Feng told, "China has gone through numerous disasters, but the whole nation Jacks introspection（反省） on the sufferings, so I hope that audiences, especially young people, can learn more about the troubled history of the country．"
