18．LONDON（Reuters）--Organic fruit，delivered right to the doorstep．That is what Gabriel Gold prefers，and he is willing to pay for it．If this is not possible，the 26-year-old computer technician will spend the extra money at the supermarket to buy organic food．
"Organic produce is always better，"--Gold said．"The food is free of pesticides（农药），and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms．And more often than not it is locally（本地）grown and seasonal，so it is more tasty．"Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend，and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business．But how many shoppers really know what they are getting，and why are they willing to pay a higher price for organic produce？Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their preferences-but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete．For example，small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic products．And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported（进口）to meet growing demand．"The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year，so it is a very fast-growing market，"said Sue Flock，a specialist in this line of business．

12．BELJLNG-Eating at a Beijing restaurant is usually an adventure for foreigners，and particularly when they get the chance to order"chicken without sex life"or"red burned lion head"．
Sometimes excited but mostly confused，embarrassed or even terrified，many foreigners have long complained about mistranslations of Chinese dishes．And their complaints are often valid，but such an experience at Beijing's restaurants will apparently soon be history．
Foreign visitors will no longer，hopefully，be confused by oddly worded restaurant menus in the capital if the government's plan to correctly translate 3，000Chinese dishes is a success and the translations are generally adopted．
The municipal（市政）office of foreign affairs has published a book to recommend English translations of Chinese dishes，which aims to help restaurants avoid bizarre translations．"It provides the names of main dishes of famous Chinese cuisines in plain English，"an official with the city's Foreign Affairs office said，"Restaurants are encouraged to use the proposed translations，but it will not be compulsory．"It's the city's latest effort to bridge the culture gap for foreign travelers in China．
"The book is a blessing to tourist guides like me．Having it，I don't have to rack my brains trying to explain Chinese dishes to foreign travelers，"said Zheng Xiaodong，a 31-year-old employee with a Beijing-based travel agency．
"I will buy the book as I major in English literature and I'd like to introduce Chinese cuisine culture to more foreign friends，"said Han Yang，a postgraduate student at the University of International Business and Economics．
It is not clear if the book will be introduced to other parts of China．But on Tuesday，this was the most discussed topic on weibo．com，China's most popular micro-blogging site．

A new eight-kilometre road is under construction that links the port area with the motorway system．It is expected to carry 20，000trucks and cars a day，which greatly reduces the overcrowded traffic in the center of the city．As part of the project，two four-kilometre road tunnels are being built below the central area of the city，one for traffic to the north and the other for traffic to the south．The two tunnels are about 20metres below the surface and are 12metres wide，providing for two lanes of traffic in each direction．
