With the living standard improving rapidly, people's demand upon food and catering (餐饮) service is also changing rapidly. Such changes reflect the improvement of modern lifestyle and life quality.
Firstly, people demand that the food should provide overall and balanced nutrition. Now people have realized that food with high protein (蛋白质) and fat is harmful to their health, and hence begin to take in more different nourishment.
Secondly, people pay more attention to the sanitation of the food and the catering service. The focus on "green food", "green material" and "fresh material" can be taken as the prime instance to show people's consciousness of the importance of sanitation.
At last, the catering service industry has been increasingly standardized (标准化). Now most restaurants can provide their guests with standardized food and service. On the other hand, many restaurants have come up with a lot of special food and services in order to meet various needs of different guests.

Women's fashions tend to change more rapidly than men's. In the early 1900s all women wore their skirts down to the ankle. Today, skirt length varies from floor- length to ten inches above the knee. Women's shoes have also gone through all sorts of changes in the last ninety years. For instance, boots for women were very common at the beginning of this century. Then, for a few years, they were not considered fashionable. Today they are back in style again in all colors, lengths, and materials. In fact, today's women can wear all types
of clothes, even T-shirts and shorts on almost any occasion. While all of these changes were taking place in women's fashions, men's clothing remained pretty much the same until a couple of years ago. And, in fact, most men still wear the traditional suit, jacket, shirt, tie, though bright colors, patterns, and a variety in cut are now more common.

When people print a stamp, any error made on a stamp raises its value to stamp collectors. A mistake on one inexpensive postage stamp has made the stamp worth a million and a half times its original value.
More than one hundred years ago in the British colony of Mauritius, a small island in the Indian Ocean, the mistake was made. In 1847 an order for stamps was sent to a London printer—Mauritius was to become the fourth country in the world to issue stamps.
Before the order was filled and delivered, a ball was planned at Mauritius's Government Ho
use, and stamps were needed to send out the invitations. A local printer was instructed to copy the design for the stamps.
He accidentally inscribed the words "Post Office" instead of "Post Paid" on the several hundred stamps that be printed.
