In many cases they have built their reputations over hundreds of years, and they have become names that millions of Chinese love, respect and most of all buy.

At least once a year, Meng Wei visits several shops in Beijing that specialize in traditional goods, longing to buy something for his family in Xi’an.

“It’s a routine I go through before I head home for big holidays such as the Spring Festival,” Meng says.

His shopping list includes Daoxiangcun pastries and Niulanshan Erguotou. “My mother has a sweet tooth and she always has a preference for Daoxiangcun, and my uncles love the kick of Erguotou,” Meng says.

A trust in quality and a desire for things of the past are among the reasons why many people buy these time-honored brands.

However, with such brands one characteristic stands out above all else: Their popularity has endured for years, decades and in many cases centuries. That popularity was evident in the attention the public gave to them in a survey（调查） of time-honored brands in Beijing last year, which drew more than 4 million respondents.

Yili, a century-old pastry brand, came out on top as the favorite. There are some old brands, too, that have been bywords for older generations, faded from view but then made spectacular comebacks.

One of these is Beibingyang (Arctic Ocean) a soft drink that was the first commercial beverage many Beijingers tasted. It disappeared from the market for 15 years but resurfaced in 2010. It again proved to be a hit, many people saying it took them back to the 1960s and 1970s, and was a natural reference point as older people started recounting childhood stories to their children.

"Such brands are the product of market competition and real quality," says Yin Jie, an official with a committee of experts charged with revitalizing Chinese time-honored brands. These brands are 230 years old on average, and some were highly popular back when the country enjoyed great prosperity（繁荣） hundreds of years ago, Yin says. "To this day what China contributes to these brands is certain rare natural ingredients(成分), and that keeps them going."

I am a middle school student. My name is Wang Jing. My grandfather is 70 years old now. He often says life has changed a lot. It becomes better and better. I asked him what life was like when he was a child. The following was what he said.

The younger brothers and sisters often wore their old brothers’ and sisters’ clothes. My grandfather is the youngest. Only he went to school and had a job in the city.

What personal qualities are desirable in a teacher? I think the following would be generally accepted.

Firstly, the teacher’s personality should be lively and attractive. This does not rule out people who are plain?looking, or even ugly, because many such people have great personal charm. 1..

Secondly, it is not merely desirable but essential for a teacher to have a capacity for sympathy, a capacity to understand the minds and feelings of children. 2.—not of what is wrong, but of the weaknesses and immaturity of children, which cause them to make mistakes.

Thirdly, I hold it essential for a teacher to be both intellectually and morally honest. This means that he will be aware of his intellectual strengths and limitations, and will have thought about and decided upon the moral principles by which his life shall be guided. 3.. That is part of the technique of teaching, which demands that every now and then a teacher should be able to put on an act—to enliven(使生动) a lesson, correct a fault, or award praise.

A teacher must be capable of infinite patience. 4., for we are none of us born like that.

Finally, I think a teacher should have the kind of mind which always wants to go on learning. 5.；there is always something more to learn about. There are three principal objects of study: the subjects which the teacher is teaching; the methods by which the subjects can best be taught to the particular pupils in the classes he is teaching; most importantly, the children, young people, or adults to whom the subjects are to be taught.

A. This, I may say, is largely a matter of self?discipline and self?training

B. Closely related to this is the capacity to be tolerant

C. Teaching is a job at which one will never be perfect

D. Children, especially young children, live in a world that is rather larger than life

E. There is no contradiction (自相矛盾) in my going on to say that a teacher should be a bit of an actor

F. But it does rule out such types as the over?excitable, sad, cold, and frustrated

G. There are two fundamental principles of British education today

Do you want to improve your quality of life? Here is some advice.

1．Make it a point to do something brave every day. 1. This might mean talking to someone that you generally wouldn't talk to or starting a project that you feel afraid of. There is no need to plan it in advance.

2．Learn something new. Pick a topic, especially something you know nothing about and learn something about it. 2. It helps to keep it if you have time to make a note of what you learned.

3．Debate something. If you think you know about something, nothing will prove it like arguing(辩论)it with someone who's smarter than you. 3. This is easier said than done, but it can provide you with some of the best possible ideas.

4．Spend time with a child. 4. If you don't, I'm sure you have friends who would be happy to let you borrow theirs for a few minutes. It doesn't matter what age they are, children see the world entirely different. Look at it from their eyes. Enjoy the simple things again.

5．Recognize what makes you happy. 5. Everyone is working towards something, but what makes you happy now? Think of it and try to add more of what made you happy yesterday to today.

A．If you have one, consider yourself lucky.

B．Talking with little children keeps you young.
