In order to read this magazine, you have to have a decoder（解码器）. Each page of it has its number, so you only have to dial（拨号）the number to choose which subject you want to read about. There are all kinds of information-everything is included from cooking to the latest sports news.If you want to read the news, the first thing you have to do is to turn to the back page, which has an easy-to-remember page number, 100, for example. Then you start choosing what you want to read. The news is on page 101 to 109, so you put in the numbers and the news appears written across your screen. Perhaps you want to go out in the afternoon, so you press 181, and a brightly coloured weather map appears on the screen.But the weather is terrible, so you decide to go shopping and dial 162 for a list of the weeks best bargains（廉价商品）. But should you drive or take the train? To answer that question, you only have to press 189 for the traffic report. It is very simple to use. But probably the best thing about the service（服务）is that it is being updated（更新）all the time.London already has three services. One, sent out by TV, is called ORACLE while the other two, on BBC, are called CEEFAX because they let you see facts. Although CEEFAX and ORACLE have been operating for some time, they have not been well publicized（宣传）. BBC engineers do not think that their idea will ever replace books and newspapers because they can be taken with you everywhere. But many people would agree that it is a breakthrough（突破）as great as the invention of printing, which could not just change our reading habits but our whole way of life.26 .

Tourists and travelers often get to try some unfamiliar food. That is part of the fun of traveling. Here are four peoples experiences with foreign food.David King is a Chinese student in France. “I never had cheese or even milk before I came to France. Cows are seldom seen in my part of China. So there is no milk or milk products. I drank some milk when I first arrived in France. I hated it! I tried cheese, too, but I didnt like it. I love ice cream, though thats made from milk.”Birgit is from Sweden. She traveled to Australia on vocation. “I was in a restaurant that was special in fish. I heard some other people order flake, so I ordered some, too. It was delicious! Later, I learned that flakes is an Australian name for shark. Now, whenever I see a new food, I try it on purpose. You know why? I remember how much I enjoyed flake.”Chandra is a dentist in Texas. She is from India. “ Im afraid to try new foods because maybe there is beef in them. Im a Hindu(印度教信徒)and my religion(信仰) stops me from eating meat from the cow. Thats why I cant eat hamburgers or noodles with meatballs.”Nathan is from the United States. He taught for a year in China. “My friend gave me some 100-year-old eggs to eat. I didnt like their appearance at all. The eggs were green inside, but my friends said the color was normal.
