The Best Chinese Restaurants in Soho
Soho, envelopes London's Chinatown so naturally that the neighbourhood is full of Chinese restaurants.You'll find various Chinese cuisines in Soho.
Yauatcha Soho($$$)
Yauatcha is a stylish all-day dim sum restaurant from the Hakkasan Group.And the Soho site is extremely stylish indeed with its dark tables and long blue-lit fish tank.The food is similarly beautiful, from the delicate crystal dumplings to the spicy steamed seabass, a kind of sea fish.You certainly pay for the pleasure of eating at Yauatcha.For a luxury occasion it really hits the spot.
Beijing Dumpling ($$)
It may have dumpling in the name but that's not all this little spot turns out.You can watch the chefs make the dumplings by hand in the window and they come pan-fried, steamed or soupy in the form of xiaolongbao.If you need more there are a variety of classic Chinese dishes and spicy hot pot.
Little Four Seasons ($)
It's not hard to locate Little Four Seasons which is famed for its roast duck.You can get this signature dish at Little Four Seasons but the specialty of this house is hot pot with the pork belly and chicken with black pepper, the spicy chicken and the spicy and sour fish being particular favourites.
Barshu($$)
Sichuan cuisine is famous for its spiciness and that's exactly what you get at Barshu.Sichuan pepper and chillies feature across the menu, in everything from deep fried frog's legs to dry wok (锅) duck tongues to hot and sour tofu.It's slightly pricier than your average Chinatown restaurant but you'll struggle to find regional food of the same quality elsewhere.Just be prepared for the heat.
21.Which of the four restaurants may cost customers most?

C.Beijing Dumpling.

China's first group of five female pilots flying J-11B fighter jets successfully completed their first solo training.
During the training, pilots had to complete simulated single engine and landing procedures accurately under high altitude conditions, which greatly tested their situational awareness, technical and tactical (战术上的) capabilities.
The first solo flight also involved challenging operations such as hovering at maximum angular speed (角速度).It tests pilots' ability to master the boundary performance of the aircraft and how to control the aircraft accurately, providing a solid foundation for them to achieve tactical intention in the later air combat.
“We are honored to be part of the first group of female pilots flying J-11B fighter jets but it was also a test for us.Though we're weak in physical strength compared with men, flying these jets is not about arm wrestling.What matters is decision-making and control of the jets,” said Yan Zhongyue, one of the pilots from Xi'an Flying College of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Air Force.
Women obviously enjoy advantages in operating weapons and equipment because of the careful and sensitive characteristics, which also accords with future warfare in which accurate control of weapon platforms would be one of focuses.
Following their first flight in the J-11B, they will receive training on formation flying, low-altitude and air combat training before they will participate into front line combat units this year.Training female fighter pilots is an important measure to strengthen the quality of the Air Force's talent pool.The move is designed to shorten training cycles for third generation fighters' pilots.“We have proved that female pilots can do the same things as men, we can operate heavy combat fighters.Today we can fly the J-11B, in the future same on the J-20.Our journey is the sea of stars,” said Yan.
24.Which of the following best describes the first solo training?
A.Demanding. B.Dangerous.
C.Appealing. D.Popular.
25.In which aspect do female pilots have advantages over male pilots?
A.They are physically stronger.
B.They are more cautious and attentive.
C.They can make better decisions.
D.They can control aircrafts more steadily.
26.What can we learn about the female pilots from the last paragraph?
A.Their front line experience is rich.
B.Their training will soon come to an end.
C.They play a vital role in Air Force talents.
D.They have confidence to beat men in flying.
27.What can be the best title for the text?
A.Female Pilots' Hard Training on Flight
B.Female Pilots' Journey to the Sea of Stars
C.The Advantages Female Pilots Have on Flight
D.The Success of Female Pilots' First Flight in the J-11B

In Jakarta, apart from the narrow, unpaved road, the two-meter-high concrete coastal wall is the only thing that separates Susan's small restaurant from the sea.Her family depends on that wall.Growing up here, Susan used to play on the beach in front of her house.But by the 2000s the beach had disappeared, and the sea frequently flooded the neighborhood.
In 2002, the government built the coastal wall, to give the residents peace of mind and time—a respite (暂缓) from the steady sinking of the land under the city and the steady rising of the sea.But just five years later, in 2007, the wall proved no match for the worst floods in Jakarta's modern history.
Jakarta is now sinking at a truly alarming rate—a rate that varies around the city but is up to 11 inches a year in the northern areas.About 40 percent of Jakarta is below sea level.By comparison, climate change is raising sea level by only less than an inch a year.But sinking land and rising sea both point toward the same outcome:regular flooding in Jakarta.“Jakarta is the center of administration, economy, culture, and entertainment.Over the years Jakarta has grown into a big city with no environmental support system,” says Andy, a lecturer at the University of Indonesia.Ultimately that's why it is sinking today.
The situation is one reason the government announced that the nation's capital would be moved away to a new city to be built on Borneo, which is now forest.But local communities aren't so happy with the plan.They fear the project would destroy their land, forest, and livelihoods.In Jakarta, on the other hand, those who welcome the decision argue that it will ease Jakarta's burdens of crowding and pollution.
But as the government leaves the sinking capital, what is to become of the 10 million people like Susan who still live there?
28.What is the function of the coastal wall?
A.To prevent the land from sinking.
B.To keep the residents from floods.
C.To stop the steady rising of the sea.
D.To restore the beach for the residents.
29.What can we learn about the floods from Paragraph 3?
A.The floods were caused by nature and humans.
B.Climate change is the primary cause of the floods.
C.The rise of the sea level is the outcome of regular flooding.
D.The economic development has a great impact on the floods.
30.What can be learned from the passage about Jakarta?
A.It is no longer the nation's capital now.
B.It is an underdeveloped city with a large population.
C.Its residents suffer a lot from the plan of the government.
D.Its measures to protect the environment are far from satisfactory.
31.What is the author's attitude to the plan of the government?
A.Intolerant. B.Supportive.
C.Worried. D.Indifferent.
D
“Mona Lisa's” famous smile is routinely described as ambiguous.But is it really that hard to read? Apparently not.In an unusual trial, close to 100 percent of people described her expression as “happy”.
The “Mona Lisa” is often held up as a symbol of emotional mystery.Kornmeier, the German scientist, and a team used it in a study of factors that influence how humans judge visual clues such as facial expressions.Using a copy of the masterpiece by Leonardo da Vinci, the team moved the model's mouth corners slightly up and down to create eight altered images.They created four “happier” and four “sadder”“Mona Lisas”.
A block of nine images were shown to 12 trial participants 30 times.In every showing the pictures were randomly rearranged.Then participants had to describe each of the nine images as happy or sad.
“Given the descriptions from art and art history, we thought that the original would be the most ambiguous,” Kornmeier said.Instead, “we found that Da Vinci's original was perceived as happy in 97 percent of cases.”
The second experiment involved the original “Mona Lisa” with eight “sadder” versions.These were given even more subtle (微妙的) differences in the lip tilt (倾斜).In this test, the original was still described as happy.However, participants' reading of the other images changed.“They were perceived a little sadder than in the first experiment,” said Kornmeier.
The findings confirm that “we don't have an absolute fixed scale of happiness and sadness in our brain”—and that a lot depends on context, the researcher explained.Understanding this process may be useful in the study of psychiatric (精神病学的) disorders.As for the masterpiece itself, the team believe their work has finally settled a centuries-old question.
32.What does the underlined word “ambiguous” mean in the first paragraph?
A.Strange. B.Happy.
C.Sad. D.Unclear.
33.What is the purpose of the study led by Kornmeier?
A.To create copies of altered images.
B.To answer a centuries-old question.
C.To analyze what affect humans' visual judgement.
D.To describe the ambiguous smile of the masterpiece.
34.What can we learn from the first experiment?
A.The experiment was randomly arranged.
B.The result proved the original assumption.
C.The copies differed in “Mona Lisa's” mouth corner.
D.Altogether 30 different images were shown to the participants.
35.What will Kornmeier agree according to the findings?
A.Humans' visual judgement will change with context.
B.Humans are better at recognizing happiness than sadness.
C.“Mona Lisa's” smile is related with psychiatric disorders.
D.The study result can be used to treat patients with mental disorders.

“Waking up 10 to 15 minutes earlier can be enough to make a difference,” suggests Jodie Watson.Getting those first few minutes to yourself before being pulled in a million directions really helps you get a jump start on the day.
They complete tasks in the same order.
“__38__You probably follow an order when you brush your teeth or take a shower because they're a habit.It's the same theory for the rest of your routine,” Casey Osmundson says, “The more you practice completing a task, the less you'll have to consciously think about each step.What once seemed like a challenge will soon feel more like second nature.”
They identify several things for a successful day.
Author Laura Vanderkam says, “Organized people think through their days.At the beginning of the day, they ask, ‘What do I need to do to make this a good day? What things can make me feel like the day is a success?__39__ And they'll try to finish them.”
They set realistic morning goals.
“Add one thing at a time, and limit the number of tasks to be completed,” suggests Watson.If you try to change everything all at once, you'll burn out and want to quit.She says, “Your routine should be the basics that you need to complete.If you have other must-do tasks each day, simplify them or spread them out differently on your schedule.__40__”
A.They try to be the first one up.
B.They start their to-do list the night before.
C.Thus, you will avoid wearing yourself out.
D.It's because they often make schedules in advance.
E.Then they figure out when these things can be scheduled.

Dear Tom,
I am writing to share with you one of my favorite Chinese folk dance, the peacock dance (孔雀舞) of the Dai people, who are known as their dancing skills.It is said that about a thousand years ago, when the Dai minority learned to dance through copying the elegant gestures of the peacock, which is a symbol of happiness.The dance movements are usually performed in fixed order.The dance first start with a peacock flying out from its nest.But next it wanders around the wild, cautiously search for food.Then the peacock goes to the river bank to bath in the water and comb their feathers.In the end, the peacock spreads out the wings and flies joyful into the sky.To show a lively peacock, dancers must use a range of hand movements and eye expressions.Their knees must be flexible, too.
Yours,
Mary

Yours,

Reading_Classics_Will_Never_Be_Outdated
Nowadays, many people are unwilling to spend time reading classics.Some reasons account for this phenomenon.For one thing, people tend to do fragmented reading, which brings them fast information without deep thinking.For another, some people feel it no use reading classics, since they are disconnected with their current life.
There is no denying that we can benefit a great deal from reading classics.To start with, it is significant for us to learn about society, thus enriching our knowledge in many aspects.Additionally, classics provide a chance for us to enhance our aesthetic taste.
From my perspective, classics are a precious spiritual treasure of all human beings.Therefore, I advocate people reading classics and absorbing the essence of great literature.
