1．Thomas Hardy，probably the most searching and knowledgeable novelist of our time，was born on June 2，1840，in Dorsetshire，England．He died on January 11，1928．In his youth，Hardy read much and dreamt of becoming a poet，but he studied and practiced architecture as an assistant to a London architect，winning a prize for design．The fine descriptions of structure in his novels were probably somewhat due to his architectural training．
    For five years he worked hard to practise writing poetry，but when he was twenty-seven，Hardy turned to fiction．His first story was accepted two years later，but upon the advice of George Meredith he decided not to publish it．His first novel，Desperate Remedies，appeared in 1871．During the next twenty-five years he published fourteen novels and two collections of short stories．
    Under the Greenwood Tree （1872）he never surpassed（超越）in happy and delicate perfection of art．This and his next novel，A pair of Blue Eyes （1873），begin to show deep irony（讽刺） which is so obvious throughout Hardy's writings．
    Far from the madding Crowd （1874）was his first popular success．In it is shown Hardy's amazing power of describing nature as symbolic background for his characters，an organic part of the action of his story．This was the earliest of what he called his novels of character and environment，which included The Return of the Native，Tess of D'Urbervilles，his masterpiece，and Jude the Obscure．Not until he was fifty-eight years old was his first collection of poems published，and he was sixty-four when the first part of The Dymats，surprised the literary world．

Fruit and Scent Playground，Stockholm
Is there a picky eater on a steady diet of chicken fingers and cheese？Perhaps a trip to Sweden's Fruit and Scent Playground will change his or her culinary（烹饪的）tune．This playground features a banana slide，an orange seesaw，pear huts，a watermelon jungle gym and a pair of cherry swings，all designed by public artist Johan Ferner Strom．Now，who can say you can't play with your food？
Nishi Rokugo Park，Tokyo

Bicentennial Children's Park，Santiago，Chile
Bicentennial Children's playground in Metropolitan Park was built to celebrate 200years of Chilean independence and improve the lives of Santiago citizens．Dozens of slides are built into the slope，creating a design completely complementary（互为补充的）of the surrounding landscape．Fountains offer some relief from the sun，and ample seating gives parents a place to relax．

That was the first time that I  （82）had noticed   （notice） the fresh taste of the meat and vegetables of Chinese food．
When I learned more about the food，I began to understand why  （83）ithas this special feature．
Many years ago，china had   （84）an   energy crisis because it lost much of its wood due to over population and poor management of its forests．This  （85）loss（lose） was very bad for the country，of course，but it turned out to be very good for the food．Wood became very expensive and hard to get，so the Chinese had to either find a substitute for their  （86）valuable  （value） wood，or learn how to use it better．There weren't any substitutes so people found ways to
economize．

Pete tried everything to control his ticklishness，but nothing worked．So he began to feel sad for being different．
One day in the street，he met a special clown．The clown was very old and could hardly walk，but when he saw Pete in tears，he went to cheer him up．It didn't take long to make Pete laugh．Later Pete told him about his ticklish problem，and he asked the clown how such an old man could carry on being a clown．
"I have no one to take my place，"said the clown．"I have a very serious job to do．"Pete looked at him，surprised．"Come，I'll show you，"said the clown．So the clown took Pete to many hospitals full of children who were sick．As soon as they saw the clown，their faces changed completely and lit up with a smile．Their short while spent with the clown changed everything for them．That day was even more special，because in every show Pete's laughter would end up with the kids lying on the floor，dying with laughter．When the visit came to an end，the old clown said to Pete，"Now do you see why I can't retire （退休），even at my age？"
