Dasa Book Café—Dasa Book Café is one of y favorite book shops. Not only does it have a great selection of used books but the atosphere at Dasa Book Cafe is lovely too. It has around 12,000 books, with soe books fro Gerany, France, Italy etc. Dasa is also very well organized, unlike a lot of used book stores in Bangkok, so it’s very easy to find what you want. It also buys or exchanges books fro custoers, so if you’ve got books you no longer want, take the with you.

Its selection is average but the prices are good and it’s been around for over 20 years. Elite has any fiction books, travel books, and an interesting collection of history and biographies. The only thing I don’t like about Elite Book House is their staff have always been unfriendly, which is unusual for Thailand.

Are you a tea lover? Do you like green tea or black tea? Well, a few cups of green tea each day ay help you prevent heart disease, Greek researchers said. A new study shows health benefits fro drinking green tea which can reduce the risk of cancers and other diseases. The study shows that green tea can iprove the flow of blood and the ability of arteries (动脉) to relax, said Charalabos Vlachopoulos, an expert at the Athens edical School in Greece who worked on the study.
Other studies have shown black tea can also benefit heart health. The Greek tea said they believed green tea ight be even better because it had higher quantities of flavonoid (类黄酮) — soe of which are lost in the aking of black tea. Flavonoids are also found in cocoa, toatoes and grapes.
“This is the first study to show these effects of green tea,” Vlachopoulos said. “A couple of cups a day will probably help people to keep healthy.”
The researchers gave 14 healthy volunteers green tea, coffee or hot water on three situations and then easured the effects of endothelial cells (内皮细胞) in the circulatory syste.

While the researchers only looked at a short-ter effect, Vlachopoulos said the tea’s not-yet-published studies suggested the protection was long-lasting. Green tea should be drunk ore than black tea, for it can iprove the flow of blood and be ore beneficial to health.

Although different languages have different vocabulary and rules, language has one thing in coon: it is the tool that huans use to express thoughts. Therefore, learning the native language well will help better understand a foreign language. Copared with those who are not good at their native languages, a good native language learner has better writing and speaking skills. These skills are also helpful for the to learn a foreign language. However, the native language has soe negative effects on foreign language learning.
