Paris is a city unlike any other. It is overflowing with culture, history and beauty.

While people travel to Paris to see the Louvre, climb the Eiffel Tower or see Notre-Dame, the

real magic is found in the streets. To make sure you don’t miss a thing, take a moment to read

through our Paris Travel Guide, where we share our favorite local restaurants.

Le Train Bleu

It’s near impossible to top the atmosphere of Le Train Bleu, a French restaurant located

within the Gare de Lyon railway station. The restaurant itself is a historic monument. As you

might imagine, you’ll need a reservation to dine under the hand-painted ceilings.

Chez Nanchang

It’s impossible to go wrong at Nanchang’s — everything is fresh, salty, and shareable, and

the atmosphere is both fashionable and casual. Grab a few orders of skewered meat and vegetables

for the table and an order of soup and enjoy the Chinese street BBQ experience — in Paris.

Seating is indoors and they don’t accept reservations.

L’Avant Comptoir de la Terre

Set within Hotel Relays Saint Germain, next to the renowned Le Comptoir du Relais, is the

tiny L’Avant Comptoir de la Terre, a tiny, casual, and oh-so-delicious wine bar that will keep you

coming back for more. This tiny restaurant doesn’t accept reservations, so be prepared to wait.

Chez Justine

This spot delivers the authentic Parisian brasserie (啤酒店) feel — groups laughing over post

work wine, couples waiting at a street-side table, and a busy bar full of the who’s who of the

neighborhood. They have fantastic wood-fired pizzas, homemade lasagna, and a great happy hour.

When you are little, the whole world feels like a big playground. I was living in Conyers,

Georgia the summer it all happened. I was a second grader, but my best friend Stephanie was only

in the first grade. Both of our parents were at work and most of the time they let us go our own

way.

It was a hot afternoon and we decided to have an adventure in Stephanie's basement. As I

opened the basement door, before us lay the biggest room, full of amazing things like guns, dolls,

and old clothes. I ran downstairs, and spotted a red steel can. It was paint. I looked beyond it and

there lay even more paint in bright colors like purple, orange, blue and green.

"Stephanie, I just found us a project for the day. Get some paintbrushes. We are fixing to

paint. “She screamed with excitement as I told her of my secret plans and immediately we got to

work. We gathered all the brushes we could find and moved all of our materials to my yard. There

on the road in front of my house, we painted big stripes (条纹) of colors across the pavement (人

行道). Stripe by stripe, our colors turned into a beautiful rainbow. It was fantastic!

The sun was starting to sink. I saw a car in the distance and jumped up as I recognized the

car. It was my mother. I couldn't wait to show her my masterpiece. The car pulled slowly into the

driveway and from the look on my mother’s face, I could tell that I was in deep trouble.

My mother shut the ear door and walked towards me. Her eyes glaring, she shouted, "What in

the world were you thinking? I understood when you made castles out of leaves, and climbed the

neighbors' trees, but this! Come inside right now!" I stood there glaring back at her for a minute,

angry because she had insulted (侮辱) my art.

"Now go clean it up!" Mother and I began cleaning the road. Tears ran down my cheeks as I

saw my beautiful rainbow turn into black cement.

Though years have now passed, I still wonder where my rainbow has gone. I wonder if,

maybe when I get older, I can find my rainbow and never have to brush it away. I guess we all

need some sort of rainbow to brighten our lives from time to time and to keep our hopes and

dreams colorful.

4．What did the writer want to do when his mother came home?

A．To introduce Stephanie to her. B．To prevent her from seeing his painting.

C．To show his artwork to her. D．To put the materials back in the yard.

5．In his mother's eyes, the writer ________.

A．was a born artist B．worked very hard

C．was a problem solver D．always caused trouble

6．The underlined word "rainbow" in the last paragraph refers to ________.

A．something imaginative and fun B．the stripes on the pavement

C．the rainbow in the sky D．important lessons learned in childhood

7．It can be learned from the passage that parents should ________.

A．encourage children to paint B．value friendship among children

C．protect rather than destroy children's dreams D．discover the hidden talent in children

Breathing dirty air can cost someone’s lifespan (寿命) months—even years, a new study

finds. Worldwide, air pollution lowers average lifespans by a year. Scientists shared their new

findings in Environmental Science & Technology Letters.

Air pollution (污染) has been linked to many health problems. Most earlier studies have

looked at how tiny air pollutants affected rates of illness or death. But now an environmental

scientist, Joshua Apte, is going even further. He works at the University of Texas, Austin. He

together with his team is looking at life expectancy, hoping to make the threat easier to

understand.
