London’s Chinese community(社区) dates back to the 18th century, when a small number of Chinese sailors moved to the city to work in Limhouse, east London. As time went on, other Chinese people came to this area and Limhouse began to be known as “Chinatown”. However, London’s Chinese community remained very small for many years: at the start of the 20th century, there were just 545 Chinese people in Britain.
After the Second World War, many farmers in Hong Kong lost their jobs and came to London. As Limhouse had been almost destroyed during the war, they settled(定居) in a different area — a part of central London near Leicester Square. This area is now what Londoners call Chinatown.
At first, the new immigrants(移民) found it difficult to get jobs. In the 1950s, however, a small Chinese restaurant opened in London. Many British people visited it and said that Chinese food was wonderful! Suddenly, Chinese restaurants and take-aways started opening in every part of the city. Instead of too little work, the new Chinese immigrants now found that they had too much! They worked as cooks, managers or waiters. Most of them enjoyed their lives and arranged their friends and relatives to join them from overseas.
As time went by, London’s Chinese community became more and more successful. The sons and daughters of the original restaurant workers studied and worked very hard. And most went on to get highly paid jobs. Many Chinese families left Chinatown and moved to the more expensive outskirts. Chinatown, however, is still as lively as ever.

Norman Bethune is one of China’s most famous heroes. But he wasn’t Chinese, he was Canadian. He gave his life to helping the Chinese people.
Norman Bethune was born in 1890. He saw a lot of soldiers die in the war, and later he invented new treatments to help soldiers, and medical tools to use outside hospitals. He’s remembered for his work as a doctor treating soldiers in different countries.
In 1938, he came to China to look after the Chinese soldiers in the mountains, north of Yan’an. There were few doctors, so he had to work very hard. He opened hospitals to give treatment to local people and soldiers and to train doctors and nurses. He also wrote books so that doctors were able to learn about new treatments.
Dr. Bethune worked very hard without stopping to rest. Once, he did operations for 69 hours without stopping, and saved 112 people. He continued working in spite of (不管) cutting his finger during an operation. In the end, he died because he did not stop to take care of his finger.
His work with the Chinese soldiers made him a hero in China. There are books and films about him, and he is still remembered in both Canada and China.

Sue looked out of the window. All she saw was an old yellow and green ivy(常青藤)plant. The half?dead plant had few leaves on it because of the autumn winds.
“There are only five,now,” said Joanna.
“Five what,dear?What are you counting?”
“The ivy leaves,” Joanna answered. “When the last one goes,I'll die. I've known that for two days. Didn't the doctor tell you about it?”
“Joanna,don't say that. Now,eat some soup and I'll finish my picture.”
“I don't want any soup,” said Joanna,looking out of the window. “Now there are only four.”
“Joanna dear,try to sleep. I must ask Mr Berman to come up. I want to draw a picture of him as a poor old farmer.”

“Joanna dear,Mr Berman died today. And do you know why?One terrible,cold wet night he took a ladder and some green and yellow paint and he climbed up,and— oh,look at the last ivy leaf on the wall!Why didn't it ever move in the wind?Can't you see?It was Mr Berman's last great picture.
