     Chinatown is the name given to an area in the middle of London. It is just between Leicester Square and Shaftsbury Avenue. Gerrard Street is at the center and is the most important street in the area. There is a large Chinese community (社区) with a lot of Chinese restaurants,Chinese supermarkets and shops in this street.

     In the 1950s,it was a poor area and everything was very cheap. At the same time,the world rice market changed and thousands of farm workers in Hong Kong lost their jobs. They began arriving in London to look for work. They found jobs in the restaurants in this area. Many British people like Chinese food,and the restaurants were popular.

     These restaurant workers often worked 17 hours a day and had no time to learn English. As more Chinese arrived,more shops and businesses grew up. Wives came and joined their husbands and children came and joined their fathers. The community grew,and Chinatown was born.

     In the 1970s and 1980s,British-born Chinese started to have a better education and this brought economic (经济的) success to the area. Many families moved out of Chinatown,and there was more space for businesses. Gerrard Street become a street only for visitors and was soon a popular place for tourists.

     Now everyone knows about London's Chinatown. During the Chinese New Year,the streets are seen with flags and thousands of Chinese go into the streets. For most of the year,though,Londoners and tourists go there mainly for the food in the Chinese restaurants. The best restaurants are the ones where the Chinese eat.

                              Decide to Do Well 

      Everybody makes decisions in daily life. They can be as important as what you will do in the future or as simple as what you will eat for breakfast. 21. 任何决定可能成为你人生的转折点。I made an important decision when I was in Junior 3.

      Before I made that decision I was one of the boys who tried too hard to act as an adult. I didn't know that only,kids want to show themselves as adults.

      I didn't listen to my parents and teachers,and my grades became poor. 22. Then came the high school entrance exam.

      At the turning point of my life,my mom wanted to have a conversation with me. I wanted to turn it down but when I looked at her eyes,I felt I couldn't refuse. Instead of asking me to study hard,to my surprise,Mom just asked what I wanted to do in the future. 23. 没有思考太多,我就说我想好好用功学习

      Mom smiled and asked again: “I asked: what do you WANT to do?”

      I never seriously thought about the question. So,I kept silent.

     “Whether you want to go on studying or enter the society ,” she went on ,“it is your own decision. Your life ought to be decided by you,not by anyone else,including me. wAfter saying that,she had tears in her eyes.

      24. For the first time in my life I was asked to make my own decision. I sat in my chair and thought about myself,my life and what kind of person I wanted to become.

      It took me what seemed to be ages to make the biggest decision so far in my life — I wanted to be a man who makes a difference in the world. To achieve that,I needed to study hard.

The path to my future became clear to me. I didn't act rebelliously (叛逆地) any more. With passion in my heart,I studied hard.

      Now,I'm 17 and 25. I'm in one of the best schools in my city,in one of the best classes at the school and I am one of the best students in the class.

      Thanks to that decision,I have become what I am today.
