London’s burning
The Great Fire of London started at around 1:00 a.m. on 2nd September, 1666. The fire started in the home of a baker named Thomas Farynor (Farriner), located on London’s Pudding Lane.
Thomas wasn’t an ____34____ baker. Actually, he was King Charles II’s baker.
The fire brought complete damage to the city of London.

Would you like to live in a city where buildings turn off the lights for you, and self-driving cars will find the nearest parking space themselves Although it might sound a little far from you, living in a “smart” city like this could happen sooner than you think.
The towns that we have lived in for centuries have changed a lot, while completely new cities are being built. One such place is the city of Songdo. In every home there will be a “telepresence” system（远程遥控系统）—allowing users to control the heating（暖气）and locks, take part in video meetings, and receive education, healthcare and government services. Around the city, escalators（自动扶梯）will only move when someone is on them, and offices and schools will all be connected to the system.
The great mind behind Songdo is from the company Cisco. In fact, technology companies around the world such as IBM, Siemens and Microsoft are already in the business.
About 75% of the world’s population will live in cities by 2050, so cities will need to be more modern to solve the coming problems. “Making cities smarter is one way out, and I think this will in turn make cities greener.” said Dan Hill, head of a research company.

When you go to Beijing, the local people will tell you that the real culture of Beijing lies in (在于) the culture of hutong and siheyuan (courtyards). How true it is!
A hutong is a kind of narrow alleyway (小巷) found in cities in the north of China, especially in Beijing. The hutongs in Beijing are formed by lines of siheyuan. This type of house is built to form squares in order to create a traditional courtyard. In the mid-20th century, several hutongs in Beijing had disappeared for the modern development. However, because of the efforts designed to protect the Chinese architectural (建筑的) culture, many hutongs have been preserved.
In hutongs, every house is connected to the other, making it easy for local people to keep in touch with their neighbours. Therefore, when people enter any of the hutongs, they can feel the deep and warm relationships among people, which is rarely found in this modern world.
Tourists can experience the life of the locals when they visit these hutongs. The public bathrooms and toilets can be found. Shops sell all kinds of goods that satisfy the local people’s daily needs. It is just like a community. People living in hutongs often talk with each other, as it is the main way for people to strengthen their relationship. These hutongs have witnessed the development of Beijing. Where there is such a hutong, there is a story. If you want to explore the culture and experience Beijing hutong food and hutong shopping, a hutong tour should not be missed.
