Seven years ago, Starbucks closed a shop in Beijing’s Forbidden City after a well-known TV host talked about if the US coffee fits into the old Chinese building.
Five years later, Starbucks seemed to regain its confidence(自信). It opened a shop beside Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou with more than 1,600 years of history. People started to talk about it online. They were not sure if the coffee business would do bad to this old temple(庙).
Some people still think that the Starbucks shop should not be opened near temples. They think it is not only a coffee shop, but a cultural invasion(文化侵略). Let us take a look at the practices in other countries. In the Forbidden City of South Korea, Gyongbokkung Palace(景福宫), there are no food or drink stores, except the food-selling machine at the gate. In Japan, the place of interest may be taken away from the list of country’s treasure if it brings in modern shops.
However, many old sights in China try to look for a balance(平衡) between traditions and business. As for Nanjing, the Starbucks shop near the Confucius Temple has been there for years. Visitors are used to enjoying the sights and the coffee at the same time. The shop here plans to meet the need of growing numbers of foreign and younger Chinese visitors. There may be more win-win deals in the future like this.

Have you ever wondered what an American high school is really like? This article will describe a typical (典型的) high school and its students.
A typical American high school has several large buildings and enough space for about 1,500 students. Every student is given a locker. When students first arrive at school, they go straight to their lockers to put away or get their textbooks and to hang up their outdoor clothes. As American textbooks are expensive, students would rather loan(租借) than buy them. Students must pay back if they lost any of them.
American students have different types of school transport. They usually take a yellow school bus or walk to school if they live close enough. Sometimes their parents drive them to school. When they turn 16 years of age, most take a free driving class at school for one term. If students earn passing grades in the class and also pass their state driver’s exam, they can begin driving themselves to school.
Each day, students take six or seven classes. They must take science, math, English and social studies. They can choose art, homemaking, fashion design and other classes. In some schools students are required to take one or more of the following special classes: health education, physical education or foreign language studies. Students move to different classrooms for each subject. This is because each teacher has their own classroom. There is a five-minute break between classes, to give the students the time to hurry to their next class.
The regular school day usually ends early in the afternoon. After school more than half of the students are involved in after-school activities. These activities include sports-especially football, basketball, baseball and soccer or clubs, such as yearbook, speech, school newspaper, photograph or student government.
