[1 ] There are many TV programs on Chinese food，but few are like A Bite of China. Direct­ed by award-winning film maker Chen Xiaoqing, A Bite of China is filled with not just mouthwa­tering images of various foods, but also the beautiful process of food-making. The program is sure to attract both experts and ordinary audiences.

[2]  “We have some interesting shots of food-making, but how to create dishes is only one aspect of food culture. The program tries to bring something new by presenting more cultural ele­ments related to dishes, such as eatting habits and the traditions of eating. ” said Chen. One episode(劇集，部)，for example, centers on the staple foods. It explains why rice is the main food of the southern Chinese diet, while wheat flour ___________________.

[3]  The show is not only about dishes. Every episode will interview different people, who will tell stories about their adventures with food. “As a saying goes, ‘ you are what you eat', Chen says. 44 Food is always connected with people. To get enough good stories, the production team spent three months doing research and interviews in about 60 cities before they started shoot­ing last July.

[4]  An episode about pickles(泡菜)，for instance, is about a white-collar woman in Bei­jing, who returns to her hometown and makes pickles for the first time for her lonely mother.

[5]  Another episode contains joyful moments of sons and daughters making New Year cakes (rice pudding) after they return home from big cities to celebrate with their parents, who have been staying in their home village.

[6]  Chen says the seven episodes might not be enough to show the glory of Chinese food cul­ture. He's planning a second and third installment.

In cities with rent control, the city government sets the maximum rent that a landlord (房東) can charge for an apartment. Supporters of rent control argue that it protects people who are living in apartment. Their rent cannot increase; therefore, they are not in danger of losing their homes. However, the critics say that after a long time, rent control may have negative effects. Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits. Therefore, they invest in other businesses where they can increase their profits. They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent-controlled. As a result, new apartments are not built. Many people who need apartments cannot find any. According to the critics, the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city.
Some experts argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way. The federal government sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers. The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled, low-paying jobs. However, if the minimum is high, employers may hire fewer workers. They will replace workers with machinery. Therefore, other things being equal, the number of workers that employers want decreases. Thus, critics hold the opinion that an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment. Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage.
Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity. Because of the law, workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum. Furthermore, employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at unfair wages.
Economic theory predicts the results of economic decision, such as decisions about farm production, rent control, and the minimum wage. The predictions may be corrected only if “other things are equal”. Economists do not agree on some of the predictions. They also do not agree on the value of different decisions. Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it. Economists do agree, however, that there are no simple answers to economic questions.

The quality of some American papers is extremely high and their views are quoted all over the world. Famous dailies like the Washington Post or the New York Times have a powerful influence all over the country. However, they are not national newspapers in the sense that The Times is in Britain or Le Monde is in France, since each American city has its own daily newspaper. The best of these present detailed description of national and international news, but many tend to limit themselves to state or city news.

But with few exceptions, American newspapers try to entertain as well as give information, for they have to compete with the attraction of television.
Just as American newspapers satisfy all tastes, so do they also try to attract readers of all political parties. A few newspapers support extremist(極端主義的) groups on the far right and on the far left, but most daily newspapers try to attract middle-of-the-road Americans who are moderate(中立的). Many of these papers print columns by well-known journalists of different political and social views, in order to present a balanced picture.
As in other countries, American newspapers can be either responsible or irresponsible, but it is generally accepted that the American press serves its country well and that it has more than once courageously exposed political scandals(丑聞) or crimes, for instance, the Watergate Affair(水門事件). The Newspapers drew the attention of the public to the horrors of the Vietnam War.

Several years ago， a television reporter was talking to three of the most important people in America. One was a very rich banker， another owned one of the largest companies in the world， and the third owned many buildings in the center of New York.
The reporter was talking to them about being important.
“How do we know if someone is really important？” the reporter asked the banker.
The banker thought for a few moments and then said， “I think anybody who is invited to the White House to meet the President of the United States is really important.”
The reporter then turned to the owner of the very large company. “Do you agree with that？” she asked.
The man shook his head， “No. I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. You‘d only be important if while you were visiting the President， there was a telephone call from the president of another country， and the President of the US said he was too busy to answer it.”
The reporter turned to the third man. “Do you think so？”
“No， I don‘t，” he said. “I don’t think that makes the visitor important. That makes the President important.”
“Then what would make the visitor important？” the reporter and the other two men asked.
