Beijing has been on a manners kick for the last few years, but on the
hottest summer days, there is no stopping men of all ages and shapes from
rolling up their shirts and exposing their tummies.
Reporting from Beijing — In the sweltering heat of summer, when the
refreshing breezes desert the city, Hu Lianqun absent-mindedly reaches for a
solution: He rolls up his shirt to expose his belly, often fanning himself

The government on Friday slashed its gross domestic product estimate to show
it shrinking at a 0.7 percent annual rate instead of the 0.2 percent growth
pace it estimated last month.
A larger trade deficit and a smaller accumulation of inventories by

故事发生在1944年的圣诞夜。此时，欧洲战局已经出现逆转，越来越不利于纳粹德国：
盟军在诺曼底登陆，对德军发起反攻，德军节节败退；但希特勒不甘失败，疯狂挣扎，
