　　How can you hear you friends’ voices when they are far away and you can’t make a longdistance call?Beside the web camera system with your computer, we have a new hige-tech way to solve the problem and ease your pain of missing them．

　　The Japanese company Combiwith created a system-“talking picture”．It makes people in pictures speak!

　　The“talking picture”has a special pen．It is actually a pen-shaped scanner．It can scan information yhin special-made pictures．A connected player will then play the information out loud．

　　First, you need to take a picture and record what you want to say with the company．The will then make special barcodes(条形码)onto your picture(you can’t see those codes)．Those codes are your voice and your words．When you hold up the pen to scna your piture with barcodes．a player connected to the pen will start to play．It plays things you’ve recorded．That way the invention makes the“you”in the picture speak!

　　Do you want your friends and families talking out of pictures?Have them make pictures like that, and yu can hear them whernever you want, only with the“talking picture”system．The systm can play messages fo rup to 12minutes．

　　“The pictures would be useful for those who hope to hear the voice of someone living far away,”said Mayumi Fuji, a spokeswoman for the company．“Grandparents, for example．longing to kow about their grandchildren would be happy to hear their voices when they see the picture．”Fuji said．

　　But it si troublesome to go to the company for taking a special pilcture first, And, it is much more expensive than using a telephone．The phote with barcodes costs between 17,040 and 17,990(日元)(160and 169dollars)．The larger picture you want, the more you pay．

　　Now．just raise a finger, lonely people can have their loved ones speak put of pictures, But, whether the“talking picture”is practical or not, let’s wait and see．

The English translations of the names of traditional Chinese dishes on menus(菜单) across the country have caused public discussion about the precision(准确) of the translations.
Since more and more foreigners come to China every day, many restaurants around China are providing English translations of their menus. They want to make it easier for foreigners to order Chinese dishes when they travel. Some restaurants also hope that the translations will increase foreigners’ knowledge of Chinese cuisine(烹饪).
But an article in China Youth Daily says the English menu translations haven’t live up to public expectation（期望）. It argues most of the English names of Chinese dishes lack the cultural meaning and attraction of the dishes they describe. Instead, the translations only provide a list of each dish’s ingredients（配方）, the article notes. For example, one English name of a Chinese dish appears as “stir-fried mutton slice with Chinese onion and green scallion(葱爆羊肉)”.
Because the English translation focuses only on the ingredients, it fails to describe the dish’s rich cultural meaning and charm(魅力). The dish’s beautiful Chinese name, “Fo Tiao Qiang(佛跳墙)”, has a story behind it. Buddhist monks (和尚) are required to eat vegetables only , but they can’t resist(忍住)the delicious dish. So they jump over the temple walls to get a taste of the dish.
The article suggests that translators provide more beautiful translations of the names of Chinese dishes. It also notes a more vivid(生动的) English translation is very important to provide international visitors with a better understanding of Chinese cuisine.
【小题1】Why do many restaurants provide English translations of their menu ?

A．Because they want to show their ingredients in dishes.
B．Because the public expect them to do so.
C．Because Chinese dishes are popular.
D．Because it is convenient for foreigners to order food.
【小题2】According to China Youth Daily, what is the main problem of the English menu translation?
A．They are too long to remember.
B．Many of them are not correct.
C．They lack cultural meaning and attraction.
D．They are difficult to learn.
【小题3】What can we infer from the story of “Fo Tiao Qiang” dish?
A．Monks can jump high.
B．Monks lived a poor life.
C．Old China had little meat for people.
D．The dish attracted many people because it’s delicious.

“I Went Skydiving at 84!”

As a young girl growing up in the 1930s, I always wanted to fly a plane, but back then it was almost unheard of a woman to do that. I got a taste of that dream in 2011,when my husband arranged for me me ride in a hot air balloon for my birthday. But the experience turned out to be very dull. Around that time ,I told my husband that I wanted to skydive. So when our retirement community（社区）announced that they were having an essay competition and the topic was an experience of a lifetime that you wanted to have, I decided to write about my dream.

In the essay, I wrote about my desire to skydive, stating George Brush Sr. did it at age 80. Why not me? I was just 84 and in pretty good health. A year went by and I heard nothing. But then at a community party in late April 2009, they announced that I was one of the winners. I just couldn’t believe it.

One june 11, 2009, nearly 40 of my family and friends gathered in the area close to where I would land while I headed up in the airplane. My instructor, Jay, guided me through the experience. The plane was the noisiest one I had ever been in, but I wasn’t frightened—I was really just looking forward to the experience. When we reachen 13,000 feet, Jay instructed me to throw myself out of the plane. When we first hit the air, the wind was so strong that I could hardly breathe. For a second I thought, “What have I gotten myself into?” But then everything got calmer. We were in a free fall for about a minute before Jay opened the parachute（降落伞）, then we just floated downward fo zhout five minutes. Being up in the clouds and looking at the view below was unlike anything I have ever felt—much better than the hot air ballon. I was just enjoying it.

Skydiving was really one of the greatest experiences of my life. I hope other people will look at me and realize that you don’t stop living just because you are 84 years old. If there’s something you want to experience, look into it. If it’s something that is possible, make it happen.
