　　Visitors to Britain are always complaining(抱怨) about English food. But they do not really know what they are talking about because they rarely get a chance to eat it. Most of the restaurants in large towns have foreign owners and serve foreign food. When visitors are invited to eat in an English home, their hosts often feel they must offer them something foreign and exotic(奇特的).

　　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 visitor 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?

　　Get ready, China．The world is coming!Every day lots of foreigners come here as business people or tourists．And even more people will come in 2008 for the Beijing Olympics．When they come to China, we should do something to help them enjoy themselves and like China and the Chinese people．But there are some things they may not like：

　　*　Traffic problems　Cars park on sidewalks．Bus drivers drive so fast that they make people who are trying to cross the street afraid．

　　*　Littering　I notice this everywhere．Some people throw rubbish onto the ground even when there is a rubbish bin right next to them．

　　Most Chinese people are just as unhappy with these kinds of things as I am．And, certainly, the government has known the problems and is trying to do something about them．
