looks like a spectacular “street fair” of clothing and bedcovers.
This is a familiar sight in Shanghai. Swinging clothing engulfs the new flats, turning them into flag-flapping vessels. Blinding pillar boxes and street nameplates, lined-up sheets overshadow, the gorgeous shop windows.

TRANSLATION
法院的判决在各国一直都受到尊重，人们倾向于把这些判决视为以后法院需要处

理同类案件时将会遵循的“先例”。
这种情况或许是由两个原因造成的，一个是心理上的原因，另一个是实际方面的原因。心理上的原因在于，任何一个法官作出判决，如果有可能参照过去的实例，那他宁可以此来证明自己所作判决的正当合法，而不愿自己承担对这种判决的责任。实际方面的原因在于，使各种判决一致起来显然是合乎需要的，因为人们经常宣称，法律执行的确定性要比在个别的案件中能伸张正义更为重要。

按照标准的品酒仪式，首先你检验酒的色泽，然后你端起酒杯，放到鼻子边鉴定酒的香味，然而你呷一口，在口中过一遍以品定它的味道与总的“感觉”——只是在这个时候你才对侍酒生点点头说，“谢谢你，加斯顿。这酒很有力度，但不醉人。”除非你懂得品就得真正行家认为酒要满足各个感官，不然，这幕小小的活剧的各个步骤就可能显得太累赘了。色泽可以悦目，香味可以满足嗅觉，那一口酒既能满足味觉，又能不那么明显地满足触觉。酒的“感觉”这一词用的非常恰当，即使只有你的嘴接触酒。画面上欠缺的唯一感觉是被认为与此无关的声音感觉。然而有些人提出打开瓶塞时噗的一响对耳朵一大乐趣。
