<font face="Arial">After a 300 million yuan renovation project, Lidai Diwang Miao, or the Imperial Temple of Emperors of Successive Dynasties, was reopened to the public last weekend.<br />Originally constructed about 470 years ago, during the reign of Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty, the temple was used by emperors of both the Ming and Qing to offer sacrifices to their ancestors.<br />It underwent two periods of renovation in the Qing Dynasty, during the reigns of emperors Yongzheng and Qianlong. From 1929 until early 2000, it was part of Beijing No. 159 Middle School.<br />The temple's Jingdechongsheng Hall contains stone tablets memorializing 188 Chinese emperors. The jinzhuan bricks used to pave the floor, the same as those used in the Forbidden City, are finely textured and golden-yellow in color. According to Xi Wei, an official from the Xicheng District government present at the re-opening of the temple, jinzhuan bricks were made in Yuyao, Suzhou, specially for imperial use.<br />The renovation was done strictly according to that carried out at the orders of Emperor Qianlong, and only those sections of the temple too damaged to repair have been replaced.</font>

<font face="Arial">&nbsp;For any Englishman，there can never be any discussion as to who is the world's greatest writer. Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him：that of William Shakespeare. <br />Every Englishman has some knowledge of his work. All of us use words and phrases from Shakespeare's writings that have become a part of the English-speaking people. <br />Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer, made full use of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal employment of English; Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand！<br />There is probably no better way for a foreigner (or an Englishman!) to appreciate the richness and variety of the English language than by studying the various ways in which Shakespeare uses it. Such a study is well worth the effort (it is not, of course, recommended to beginners), even though some aspects of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeare's day. </font>

<font face="Arial">The first course of British meals is soup, ## on shallow plates. <br />Then comes fish; there is often a knife and fork ## special shape.<br />If you are in ## surroundings, keep an eye open for what the others are doing.<br />The next course generally ## a joint of meat.<br />Pudding is the fourth course. ## that he has finished with a course, a person lays his knife and fork on his plate with the handles towards him.<br />After the pudding or sweets, the ladies may get up and retire to the drawing-room, ## the men a little longer over their wine, smoking and talking. <br />When the ladies rise, the men get up too, ##, and resume their seats when they have left the room. Soon the men rejoin the ladies.<br />It must not be imagined ## all English people eat like this.<br />As in all countries, working-class people can afford ## the time nor the money to live like this. <br />Their dinners are cooked not by a servant ## by the mother of the family. All meals are much simpler than these served in the homes of the rich.</font>
