In this selection of tales by the master folklorist Andrew Lang, the reader is taken into the romantic world of the gallant Knights of the Round Table and their courageous and chivalrous deeds, fair maidens, castles steeped in history, the quest for the Holy Grail, and the tragic love of King Arthur and Sir Lancelot for Guinevere, and Tristan for Iseult. The Arthurian legends are the most potent of the thrilling and mist-enshrouded tales of adventure to be passed down from pre-recorded history, and they have as much appeal today as they did in the age of the troubadours.
Grade 5-8-Twelve-year-old Katy is constantly making and quickly breaking resolutions about how she will change her ways and treat others, especially her five younger brothers and sisters, with more respect and compassion. When Katy meets her Cousin Helen, an invalid, Katy is awed by her kindness, prettiness, and generosity. Katy is determined to become more like Helen, a resolution that lasts only a few hours. Soon, however, Katy gets a chance to become more like cousin Helen than she ever wished as she finds herself confined to her bedroom for four years as a result of an accident. Much of the story is focused on the change Katy undergoes during her illness. Helen visits again to advise Katy to learn from her experience and to try to become the center of the house by making her room and herself more attractive to others. One way Katy decides to take Helen's advice is through assuming the responsibility of running the house, a job that consists of giving the servants instructions and ringing her bell to summo

凡植物的叶形、叶色美丽而具有观赏价值者，我们统称为观叶植物。观叶植物一样能开花，但通常观叶价值胜于观花价值。观叶植物包括草本植物及木本植物，草本植物均属多年生宿根草本，如粗肋草类、黛粉叶类、蔓绿绒类、黄金葛类、合果芋类等。木本植物大多数属灌木或灌木状、小乔木状植物，如金叶木、彩叶木、龙舌兰类、朱蕉类、竹蕉类、福禄桐类、鹅掌藤类、冬青卫矛等；少数是乔木类，如菜豆树、马拉巴栗等，原为户外栽培的庭园树，由于幼株叶姿美观，盆栽以观叶为主，因此也收列为观叶植物。本书收录植物255种，大多为华南地区现有栽培种类，有个别是首次发表的品种。大多数的观叶植物原生于高温多湿的热带雨林地区中，需光量较少，在强烈光照下，反而容易产生日烧、脱水枯萎等现象，喜欢在日照不足或有遮荫的散漫柔和光照下生长，这类
“吃什么”和“怎么吃”的问题，始终与人类生存与发展的历史相生相伴。事实上，从“茹毛饮血”到“食不厌精，脍不厌细”的演化过程，正是人类与自然为漫长的历史“磨合期”，同时，这也是人类从野蛮向文明转化的标志之一。中国烹饪之术的历史，可谓源远流长，然而，长久以来这种精湛技艺所带来的无尽享受，绝非大多数布衣庶民可以分享。直到近二十多年来，随着国运的昌盛，大多数中国人，才延续了一条从吃得到的吃得饱；从吃得饱到吃的好；从吃得好到吃得精，乃至“吃”出“文化”的饮食路线。这不仅反映出只有国家经济高速发展，人民生活水平提高了，国人对物质文明和精神文明的追求才会日益强烈，同时，也折射出民众对烹调技艺的要求也在不断提升。中国地域广大，各地的物候条件摧生出各具地域特色的菜品烹制原料，而各地不同的风土

Source of legend and lyric, reference and conjecture, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is for most children pure pleasure in prose. While adults try to decipher Lewis Carroll's putative use of complex mathematical codes in the text, or debate his alleged use of opium, young readers simply dive with Alice through the rabbit hole, pursuing "The dream-child moving through a land/Of wonders wild and new." There they encounter the White Rabbit, the Queen of Hearts, the Mock Turtle, and the Mad Hatter, among a multitude of other characters--extinct, fantastical, and commonplace creatures. Alice journeys through this Wonderland, trying to fathom the meaning of her strange experiences. But they turn out to be "curiouser and curiouser," seemingly without moral or sense. For more than 130 years, children have reveled in the delightfully non-moralistic, non-educational virtues of this classic. In fact, at every turn, Alice's new companions scoff at her traditional education. The Mock Turtle, for example, remarks t
