A Spring Festival
Water-Sprinkling Festival, which comes in mid-April, is the new year of the Dai ethnic people (傣族人)
in southwest China"s Yunnan Province. In face of the recent serious drought disaster, there have been calls
for calling off this year"s festival celebrations.
Droughts and floods are not new things. Still, the Water-Sprinkling Festival keeps going on year by year.
Indeed, this is a serious drought, but that is not a reason to call off this year"s celebrations. After all, it is an
important event for Dai people to carry forward their culture.
Of course, the drought will affect the celebrations to some extent. Given the seriousness of the disaster,
this year not so much water is available for sprinkling. So many Dai people suggest only symbolic activities
be held. They also call for donations to be made and prayer ceremonies for rain around the festival. This is
expected to be a special Water-Sprinkling Festival.

"China will gradually broaden the chance for the participation of foreign capital in the domestic financial
market," said the People"s Bank of China in a report. "We will strengthen the connections between China"s
financial market and international ones by attracting more foreign capital in Renminbi-denominated financial
products," the report said. Meanwhile, channels will also be expanded to allow Chinese investment in foreign
financial markets. The bank said it would ease restrictions on enterprises and individuals possessing and
using foreign currencies and increase the number of qualified foreign institutional investors and the value of
their investment quotas (份额). "We will make use of the financial market to achieve balanced international
payments," said the bank.

buying foreign currency from US $ 20,000 to US $ 50,000.
"China will work hard for a more efficient and vigorous financial market that can better serve international
needs," the bank said. The country will adjust its financial market rules so they are accepted around the world,

Olympic stadium will soon be aiming at fans of winter sports.
As temperatures have begun to drop in recent weeks, so too has the number of visitors to the
80,000-seater venue, which cost 3.6 billion yuan ($527 million) to build.
And, fearing another harsh (寒冷的) winter, National Stadium Co Ltd, which owns the Bird"s Nest,
yesterday planed to spend 50 million yuan on a "snow festival".
From Dec 19, visitors will be able to pay 120 yuan to enjoy skiing and snowboarding, among other
things, on its newly constructed slopes.
The stadium owners expect to attract more than 20,000 visitors a day - twice as many as it currently
does-during the two-month festival, which will include events for both the Western and Chinese new years.
Officials revealed it would take just 5,000 visitors a day to cover the costs of the project.
"It"s not a bad idea. You can ski on man-made snow in Dubai, so why not here?" said Heiko Grasse, a
tourist from Germany, yesterday.
Famous outdoor equipment makers and local brands are in talks over sponsorship for the event, the
Bird"s Nest owners said yesterday, while the capital"s television network will also provide 500 hours of
coverage.
"The Bird"s Nest will not have a cold winter again," Wu Jingjun, the new president of National Stadium
Co Ltd, told China Daily yesterday. "We will create seasonal events almost every month from now on with

an idea of how the new wearable assisted-walking machine from Honda works.
The experimental machine, showed on Friday, is designed to support bodyweight, reduce stress on
the knees and help people organize steps and stay in crouching (蹲坐) positions.Honda showed a video
of its employees wearing the machine.
Engineer Jun Ashihara also said the machine is useful for people standing in long lines and to people
who run around to make deliveries.
"This should be as easy to use as a bicycle," Ashihara said. "It reduces stress, and you should feel
less tired."
To wear it, you put the seat between your legs, put on the shoes and push the "on" button.Then just
start walking around.
In a test run for media, this reporter found it does take some time to get used to the machine. "I
could sense how it supported my moves, pushing up on my bottom when I crouched and pushing at my
soles (脚底) to help lift my legs when I walked," he said.
The system has a computer, a motor, gears (齿轮), batteries and sensors in it, so it responds to a
person"s movements, according to Honda Motor Co.
Pricing and commercial product plans are still undecided. Japan"s No.2 automaker will begin testing
a prototype (模型) later this month.
The need for such mechanical help is expected to grow in Japan, which has one of the most rapidly
aging societies in the world.
Other companies are also eyeing the potentially attractive market of helping the weak and the old get
around. Japan is among the world"s leading nations in robotics technology, not only for industrial use but
also for entertainment and companionship.

US President Barack Obama may have just made life more difficult for cigarette makers, but he still
smokes every now and then in secret.
Obama, who has publicly struggled to quit smoking, said he still hasn"t completely kicked the habit
even after signing a law this week that will likely set tough new rules for the tobacco industry.
"As a former smoker I constantly struggle with it. Have I fallen off the wagon sometimes? Yes. Am
I a daily smoker, a constant smoker? No," Obama said at a news conference.
"I don"t do it in front of my kids, I don"t do it in front of my family. I would say that I am 95 percent
cured, but there are times where I mess up," he said.
The new law gives the US Food and Drug Administration the power to strictly limit the making and
marketing of tobacco products.
At a White House signing ceremony Monday, Obama said that he was among the nearly 90 percent
of smokers who took up the habit before their 18th birthday.
"Once you go down this path it"s something you continually struggle with, which is exactly why the
law we signed is so important because what we don"t want is kids going down that path in the first place,"
he said at the news conference.

Bruni on Feb. 8 or 9, media reported Monday. The report said that in December---less than a month after
Sarkozy met Bruni-he gave her a heart-shaped diamond engagement ring.
Carla Bruni, Italian singer, former model and girlfriend of France"s President Nicolas Sarkozy, holds the
hand of her son Aurelien while wearing a pink heart-shaped ring during a visit to the ancient Jordanian ruins
of Petra Jan. 5, 2008. French newspapers reported that Sarkozy would marry her early in February.
Sarkozy and his wife of 11 years, Cecilia, divorced in October. Their marital (婚姻) problems became
well known in May 2005 when she appeared in public at the side of event organizer Richard Attias.
A marriage to Bruni, a one-time star of the catwalks who is now a singer, would be Sarkozy"s third: He
divorced his first wife, Marie, in the late 80s-after he had met and befriended Cecilia. Political analyst
Dominique Moisi said that a Sarkozy proposal to Bruni could be part of his desire to head off any future
arguments, and the speed of their visit to the ancient Jordanian ruins of Petra Jan. 5, 2008 would fit with
his personality as a busy man in a hurry.
"Apparently, he"s going to marry her, so the problem will be behind him," Moisi said. "He will increase
the opportunities to travel with her, and to say to the French, "You see, I must remarry… You need a first
lady.""
Bruni, an Italian-born French citizen, has dated famous men including Mick Jagger and Donald Trump.
She has also reportedly been linked to singer Eric Clapton and actor Vincent Perez.

b. Visiting ruins with Bruni

B. Sarkozy is good at balancing state and personal affairs
C. It is not easy for President Sarkozy to seek a new love
D. It is a doubt whether the marriage would have a bright future
B. show uncertainty about the former supermodel"s loyalty
C. imply that past experiences have little effect on a person
D. prove Bruni one of the most popular and attractive females
B. A third marriage to fail
