fish For dessert we both ate chocolate cake topped with fresh cream Delicious!

2 I went to a restaurant yesterday evening with my sister's children It wasn't very expensive and the menu was very limited We all had a burger and

French fries, and drank cola It wasn't very good.

3 My boyfriend loves spicy food so this restaurant was perfect The waiters were all really friendly and polite, and they played traditional sitar music which was very relaxing The menu offered vegetarian dishes as well as meat dishes served with rice and a sauce - it depended on how hot you wanted

it! I chose a mild beef curry but my boyfriend had a lamb 'vindaloo' - he also drank 2 liters of water!!

4 My class at the university went there last weekend It's a very popular type of restaurant in my country It generally offers one type of food (a kind

of bread with cheese and tomato sauce) which you then choose what ingredients to add on top of it I asked for olives and mushrooms on mine and my

classmates each had something different so we could taste a piece of each person's meal.

The building company Hong Kong Housing

The building company Hong Kong Housing is building a new suburb in Shanghai, a city with a population of more than 15 million people But this suburb is not like other parts of Shanghai It is a little piece of England The name of the new area is "English Town" The manager of Hong Kong

Housing, Shi Guangsheng, says many people in this area of China want to buy an English house and live in an English town.

"This town is like Bristol or Chester There is an English square and there are pigeons to feed like in Trafalgar Square, London There are four

English-style pubs and you can buy English beer to drink There is a canal and you can row a boat there like in Cambridge."

Are there any cricket fields? "No, there aren't any places to play cricket because nobody in Shanghai can play this game But there is a football stadium like those in England And the thing we are very proud of is our shopping street There are several shops where you can buy traditional

English food like fish and chips or Christmas Pudding."

The rich Shanghai businessman can do some gardening too For with every house in "English Town", there is an English lawn and there are long

gardens with ponds and tall hedges.

But there is one problem The houses in this part of town cost a minimum of $400,000!

Considering their wedding cost over $20,000

Considering their wedding cost over $20,000 and took a year and a half to organize, you would be surprised to hear that Richard and Victoria

Hammond now intend to forget it Well, almost.

"It was a wonderful wedding, an unbelievable day," says Victoria "But we have so much we want to do together now, we are both looking to the future." Her husband, banker and amateur race driver Richard, agrees "Both our minds are now fixed firmly on the future I'll never forget our wedding ceremony or the reception we had at a cliff-side hotel afterwards, but there's so much we want, so many hopes Our marriage is so much

more important than the wedding."

"At the moment, we are still living with my parents," explains Victoria, "so our first wish is to find our own place We intend to start looking for a new house with all the modern conveniences in the suburbs in the new year." Both Victoria and husband Richard have a lot of siblings Do they intend to add to the extended Hammond family? "We plan on having two or three children ourselves," Richard tells me "Victoria is just wonderful with

children and I can get 3 years paternity leave from my work, which is just perfect."

The young couple has just returned from a two-week honeymoon spent in an authentic Scottish castle Both the newly-weds are big travel lovers and Richard hopes this will continue "I would like to go travelling as much as possible together Travelling with someone else is such a sharing

experience I think it's sad to experience all the wonderful places in the world and have no-one else there." Victoria also has another great travel ambition that she might have to do alone "I have always been fascinated by safari and my real wish is to go on safari Richard has no interest in

wildlife though."

And what about the marriage itself? In a world with such a high divorce rate, how do Richard and Victoria hope to avoid all the problems that beset so many other couples? Richard explains thoughtfully that "our ambition is to always talk to each other If you stop communicating, what chance do you have?" His wife goes along with that completely "I hope that we can speak about things, but also not expect everything to be easy I think many

people expect the wedding to be the end of getting to know each other I think it's the start."

From the 9th to the 14th centuries, when Europe was still struggling out of the Dark Ages, the Cambodian Empire of Angkor covered most of present-day Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, andThailand The heart of this empire during the 12th century was the ancient capital of Angkor Thom, near present day Siem Reap, the site of the world’s largest temple complexes, whichwere rediscovered in 1861.This spectacular city was built over 30 years under the reign of King Suryavarman II (1113-1150) The area covers about 400 square kilometres and is full of the

finest examples of Khmer art and architecture Tourists are always amazed at the scale of the place

In Angkor Wat you will find more than 100 stone monuments and temple buildings, each of which contains countless statues, sculptures and reliefs that have weathered extremely little overthe last 800 years To see the whole thing can take several days The most important temples to visit in the area are Angkor Wat, especially at sunrise or sunset; Angkor Thom, the remains

of the capital; Ta Prohm, a palace overgrown by jungle; and Bayon

Visas are required to enter Cambodia You can obtain one on arrival at Siem Reap International Airport for $20, and 1 passport photo is required per person You will also need anotherpassport photo for the Angkor Temple Entrance Pass Please ensure you take comfortable walking shoes, light clothing and plenty of water to drink as it is very hot there The most

Some scientists have predicted that healthy adultsSome scientists have predicted that healthy adults and children may one day take drugs to improve their intelligence and intellectual performance A research group has suggested that such

drugs might become as common as coffee or tea within the next couple of decades

To counter this, students taking exams might have to take drugs tests like athletes There are already drugs that are known to improve mental performance, like Ritalin, which is given to

children with problems concentrating A drug given to people with trouble sleeping also helps people remember numbers

These drugs raise serious legal and moral questions, but people already take vitamins to help them remember things better, so it will not be a simple problem to solve It will probably be

very difficult to decide at what point a food supplement becomes an unfair drug in an examination

Early morning in CaliforniaEarly morning in California, and Elizabeth Safran, a public relations consultant, is dealing with a huge number of e-mails Everybody in the small company works from home and relies one-mails and instant messaging to stay in touch Elizabeth worries about her work-life balance and thinks that ‘technology makes us more productive, but everyone is working all the time –

weekends, evenings It is too much.’

Five o’clock Friday afternoon in the , Paul Renucci, managing director of a systems integration company, switches off his computer He now works at home and is off to pick up his

children In the past, it would take him two hours to get home from the office

Ms Safran and Mr Renucci represent different side of a modern problem: the capacities of the latest communications technologies, such as e-mails, texts, messaging and video

conferencing, make it difficult to draw the line between work and leisure and raise important questions about the nature of ‘flexible working’- where employees can work where and when

they choose

There are three issues here First, does the rise of portable, networked devices such as the Blackberry and Palm Treo really damage an individual’s work and life? Second, what is the effect

of these devices on traditional workplace relationships? And third, how do individuals manage them?

A Microsoft survey found that where flexibility had increased, so had productivity and employee morale, together with lowered stress levels and staff turnover

However, individuals can suffer technology-related stress as work moves into their free time and from the complexity of the gadgets they must use, such as mobile phones where

manufacturers try to persuade customers upgrade more frequently

outside the football club He realized immediately that she was fast ‘He talked to me about athletics I had no idea what he meant The only sport I knew about was football Then he

bought me running shoes and took me training It was such hard work and my legs really ached.’ But Jose visited her parents and persuaded them she could be successful and this would

help end their poverty They agreed to let him take her away to train

In 1991, she finally accepted and invitation to train in the United States She had refused previously because she knew she would miss her family Her background was unlike those of the

girls she met in the US She explains, ‘They were good athletes but, while I worried about my parents having enough to eat, they worried about dresses and make-up They knew very little

about me and even less about my problems But I knew I was lucky to be there The trainers were brilliant and I learn a lot
