Neither the restaurants nor the public know who they are and how many of them there are in the world. The guides have come to 28 countries and areas. It arrived in Shanghai, its first stop in the Chinese mainland, in September 2020. Many people doubted whether a food guide from Westerners could understand the Chinese cuisine.

But China is catching up, building its own BeiDou Navigation Satellite System. BeiDou is Chinas homegrown satnav system, reported Xinhua. It was set up in 2000, when China sent BeiDous first navigation experiment satellite into space. With it, China became the third country to build a satnav system after the US and Russia.BeiDou can find you wherever you are.It helps you go faster by finding shortcuts (捷径) and using correct directions. When you are in trouble and call the police, they will know exactly where you are if you have a cellphone that uses BeiDou.Today, there are more than 20 BeiDou satellites above our heads.And the system is able to offer open services to the Asia-Pacific region (亚太地区).In November, China plans to send more BeiDou - 3 satellites into space.BeiDou - 3s position accuracy (准确度) is less than five meters, Ran Chengqi, a senior designer of the satellite navigation system, told China Daily.By 2020, BeiDou is planned to have 35 satellites and begin serving globally, reported Xinhua.8.A satnav system works correctly and globally by using_.

People have become more health conscious and try to take better care of their bodies by eating more healthily and exercising more regularly to lose any unnecessary fat that they may have.Not only are people being more careful about what they eat, they are also concerned with how they eat and how their meals are prepared. People are taking more time for each meal. Many avoid the so-called “plastic” fast-food hamburgers and choose to eat a salad or a sandwich of more healthful ingredients(营养成分)in a quiet restaurant with a more leisurely atmosphere. At home, they also try to take enough time to eat a relaxed dinner without phone or TV interruptions.While dieting may be viewed as beneficial,it has also become a serious problem for Americans, particularly for young women.Dieting for them has actually become a psychological addiction.They eat so little that they can lose as much as fifty percent of their total body weight, and althoughthey look like skeletons, they still insist that they are fat. The current wave of exercising, dieting and the problems produced have caused many organizations to begin educating the public .Many schools, hospitals,health organizations,newspapers and magazines,for example,are offering classes,printing booklet articles and so on, to inform the public of the way to exercise and diet,of the dangers of dieting too rapidly,and of the places people can go for medical help if they find themselves on the road to “diet addiction”.12.These days people are dieting more because.
