The Chinese do not see wine as one of the necessities of life， but in theirsocial life the culture of wine as a distinct cultural form has made andcontinues to make an impact on the way the Chinese live. Chinese alcoholicdrinks are chiefly made from grain. Throughout the long history of China， withits large population and long-term reliance on agriculture， the ups and downsof the wine trade have been closely bound up with political， economic andsocial conditions. The fluctuations in the grain harvest were like a barometerfor the ups and downs of the wine business. The successive ruling dynastiesissued or relaxed restrictions on wine production according to the grainharvests to make sure that people had enough to live on.

China is the homeland of tea， taking a leading position in the planting， producing and drinking of tea. Because of their different producing techniques， Chinese tea is divided into six major types-green tea， black tea， oolong tea， dark tea， yellow tea and white tea. Some people say that green tea， simple and light， stands for the scholasticity of south China; black tea， mild and reserved， is quite ladylike; oolong tea， warm and persistent， resembles the perseverance of gymnosophists; dark tea， with lingering aftertaste， symbolizes the wisdom of the elderly， and so on and so forth.

Many people may ask， "what is new urban fiction？" In fact，although Chinese literature has flourished after the country embarked on reform and opening， only a small percentage of thevast number of literary works touch on the life of urban whitecollars who are the driving force of todays cities. These youngpeople and student-turned entrepreneurs live a colorful life inShanghai， Beijing， Shenzhen and other cities， but they look palein many fictions. In that sense， our literature has to reflect a constantly changing society.All the works contained in this book are prize-winning "newurban fiction" stories selected by Shanghai Wave a literary andlife magazine followed the style of New Yorker for Chinese whitecollars， in recent two years.Reading these unique and vivid stories， we can feel that theseoffice workers， no matter where they are， at home or in office， in abar or a cafG have inner conflict under a placid countenance. Theirpains and struggle are beyond many peoples imagination andtheir pursuit of success and true love is not well understood andaccepted. The life of urban white-collars is as colorful as is theirinner world. This perhaps is the main feature of todays Chinesecity life.

1964年，“托福”正式开考；1989年“雅思”投入运作。2004年，“雅思”开始尝试使用“一次性试题”，所有的试题只会被使用一次；2005年，“新托福”正式开考，同样决定考过的试题不再使用。从1996年开始，《剑桥雅思全真试题》开始出版，目前已出版7本；“新托福”自开考以来，就在官网上公示了两套真题。这是以前所不曾有过的，经过十数乃至数十年的发展，两大英语考试之所以改弦更张，一方面是应对“应试培训”的冲击，维护考试的科学性、权威性，是与时俱进，是从善之举；另一方面，也与其对考试本质认识的改变有关：考试不应该仅仅是一把冰冷的“尺子”，还应该是一把温润的“拐杖”；考试不是最终目的，帮助考生掌握、提高语言交际能力才是真正目的；考试与考生的关系，不能再狭隘地仅仅理解为裁判员和运动员的关系，还应是教练员与运动员的关系，考试不能再一味地“避嫌”，而要主动地去指导考生。

Chinese literature， spanning over three thousand years， has well shaped the splendid and profound cultural identity of the Chinese people. Chinese literature is of immediate practical use from its source. It concerns human relationships and everyday life as well as political education. Moreover， it is closely related with the spiritual life of the people. The Chinese people strive for the harmony of man：with nature， firmly believing that the foundation of human relationships and everyday life is in communion with the heavenly principles. What the geniuses in the field of literature aspire to know and concern themselves with are the whole universe， history， and the bitter sorrow of the common people. All these are the great splendors in the tradition of Chinese literature.

Ancient Chinese architecture is not only a sou rce of reference for modernChinese design， but its cultural heritage has also had an international influ—ence and attracted global attention. Appreciating ancient Chinese architec-ture can be likened to opening up an enormous history book. The legends ofremote antiquity speak of the great military achievements of the Qin emperor， the noble spi rit of the Tang Dynasty， the palace intrigues of the Ming Dynasty， not to mention the wisdom and intelligence of the millions of ordinary laborersthat are neglected by the history books；all of their images are vividly re-corded therein.

The creators of Chinese folk art come from the working class masses of China's rural areas. They are mostly female laborers. A communal art， folk art would engender all of Chinese literature and all later art. Its presence is evident in everyday food， clothing， shelter and transportation; in traditional festivals， ceremonies and rituals， and in beliefs and taboos. As a living example of cultural heritage， it shows the continuity of Chinese culture from primitive society to present， a culture that bears distinct national and geographical characteristics. With this heritage， Chinese culture boasts the longest history and the richest historical sources， and of all cultures， considers itself the most widely shared and the most geographically distinct. Its cultural implication and art form accumulate a historical culture of 7，000-8，000 years dating back to primitive society.
