Dear Charles,

I haven¡¯t seen you for over three weeks. How have you been doing these days? I miss you so much! But it won¡¯t be long before we meet again, isn¡¯t it?

Charles, could you do me a favor, please? My father¡¯s birthday is coming, and I want to give him a shaver as a birthday gift. Just buy me a Gillette about 30 dollars. It is a very famous brand around the world. You can bring it back when you come back, and I will pay you back for that. Thank you very much.

Looking forward to your coming soon.

Yours,

Li Hua

¡¾ÌâÄ¿¡¿What do they really mean?

Food manufacturers and retailers are letting shoppers down. This the view of the CWS, which has just brought out a new report.

According to the report, shoppers believe food labels(±êÇ©) because they think there are strict regulations in place. ¡¾1¡¿. So the food industry can get away with all sorts of tricky strategies to make products look bigger and sound better than they are.

The report has identified the different ways in which shoppers are misled.¡¾2¡¿. Descriptions on packaging are sometimes inaccurate in an attempt to oversell the product. One example given in the report is the phrase ¡°haddock fillets¡±, used for a product that is in fact cut from big blocks of fish rather than individual slices.

¡¾3¡¿. These include ¡°traditional¡±, ¡°wholesome¡±, or ¡°premium¡±. The claim that a brand is ¡°90% fat-free¡± hides the fact that it contains 10% fat, which above recommended levels. Phrases such as ¡°free from preservatives¡± make a virtue out of a normal attribute of food.

Labels have a wide variety of text sizes on them. You sometimes need a magnifying glass (·Å´ó¾µ) to read the small print. ¡¾4¡¿.

Another deliberate type of misinformation lies in the image. Many pictures on packets use small plates to make the product look bigger. ¡¾5¡¿.

However, misleading messages on packaging could soon be a thing of the past. The CWS recently produced a code which, if used, would end the current inaccuracies and half truths. It has called on the government to support it as a way of improving food standards.

A. Meaningless adjectives are often used to give a positive message.

B. An officer says the labels will receive very serious consideration.

C. Photographs are sometimes retouched (ÐÞÊÎ) to achieve the same effect.

D. By contrast, the hard sell (Ç¿ÐÐÍÆÏú) information is given emphasis.

E. The rules are, in reality, very weak at present.

F. This result has not pleased the food industry.

G. The most common of these is poor labeling.

Have you ever seen any students whose trousers hang so low you can see their underwear? What do you think of that? Fashionable? Some of today¡¯s teenagers are big fans of such a look . ¡¾1¡¿.

The headmaster of a school in central Italy has asked students to stop wearing low-rise jeans that expose underwear and part of the body. His request came after a class trip. One day, he saw one boy¡¯s baggy trousers slide to his feet. ¡¾2¡¿.

But in Italy, a nation that takes fashion very seriously, the suggestion caused a debate among parents, teachers and students. The issue is whether the headmaster¡¯s request will limit students¡¯ freedom¡ªor whether dress in Italian schools is too casual.

¡¾3¡¿. ¡°We do not want to kick fashion out.¡± the headmaster

explained, ¡°but extremes of fashion like this are not right in school.¡± Many other schools have now requested that their students also stop wearing such trousers.

¡¾4¡¿. Ludovica Gaudio, 14, wore extremely low trousers exposing orange underwear in class. It was cold, so she wore a matching orange scarf. ¡¾5¡¿. ¡°I don¡¯t really feel comfortable in those sorts of jeans,¡± said Sarah Lattanzi, ¡°in winter, when dressed like that, it¡¯s quite cold and I am afraid my stomach will ache.¡±

A£®But recently this trend has been at the center of an argument in Italian middle schools.

B£®A parents¡¯ group praised the move in favor of good taste, while others advised schools to stop worrying about fashion and fix up old school buildings.

C£®He pointed out that this way of dressing is not suitable for school.

D£®Most students have simply ignored the request.

E£®Another 14-year-old said she would probably respect the request simply for practical reasons.

F£®Requests.

G£®Schools should pay attention to things more important than students¡¯ clothes.

¡¾ÌâÄ¿¡¿I grew up in Malaysia. Since we did not have many toys, we used rubber bands (ÏðƤ½î) to make a jump rope. Three years ago, when my daughters Michelle and Theresa were 9 and 12 years old, they were making bracelets (ÊÖ»·) using rubber bands. It struck me that I knew how to do that. I like to impress my daughters and show them that their dad is cool, so I tried it too. To my surprise, I couldn¡¯t work with the bands because my fingers were too big.

Since I studied engineering, I decided to come up with a solution (½â¾ö°ì·¨). I ran down to my basement and found a piece of wooden board, some pushpins and hooks (ͼ¶¤ºÍ¹³×Ó). With the help of these things, I managed to make a bracelet. One of my daughters said, ¡°Wow, that¡¯s cool, but I can make it by hand.¡± So I started to put two, three, four, five rows together. I crossed the bands into diamond patterns using rainbow colors, which is how the Rainbow Loom (²ÊºçÖ¯»ú) got its name.

My daughters were so excited that they showed the bracelets to their friends. We started to get requests for them. But they were still difficult to make. I thought, ¡°If I can make a small, easy-to-use loom, I¡¯m onto something big.¡± It took six months and a lot of support from my kids to perfect the idea.

I tried to sell the loom by making videos about how to use it and taking my daughters to stores to show it. Many store owners thought it might be too difficult to use. For a year, we sold it only on our website. When it became popular with kids, it got noticed by toy stores.

It is so exciting that a simple idea my kids and I came up with together at our living-room table has become a nationwide fad.

Bangkok has become the world¡¯s top tourist destination, with 15.98 million visitors projected to visit Thailand¡¯s capital city this year, according to the third annual Global Destination Cities Index released by MasterCard on Monday. Based on data MasterCard collected from governments, central banks, related public agencies and airlines so far this year, the projection for the entire year says Bangkok is surpassing (³¬¹ý) London, the previous holder of the top place, by a very narrow margin.

Monday¡¯s report marked the first time an Asian city has been projected to be the top-ranked tourist destination. London came in second, with 15.96 million visitors expected in 2013, and Paris, third, with 13.92 million visitors. MasterCard looked at 132 cities.

The study found that Bangkok is experiencing a large increase in its number of tourists in 2013, up 9.8% from 2009. That compares to New York¡¯s increase at 5.0% and London¡¯s at 3.8%. Paris, meanwhile, saw a small dip in its number of tourists (negative 0.7%).

Caroline Lledo, who was visiting Bangkok from France, said Thailand has many offerings. ¡°We like culture and the people are so nice. We also love shopping here,¡± Ms. Lledo said. MasterCard Worldwide¡¯s global economic adviser Yuwa Hedrick-Wong cited (ÒýÓÃ) overall value for money spent for why Bangkok is attractive. That is true for Thailand overall as well.
