【推荐1】Camden Market
Whatever your cup of tea is, you’re bound to find something that you’re fond of at the Camden markets. The Camden markets consist of six markets in and around Camden Town, located near Camden Lock. The markets attract 100,000 tourists every weekend.
But believe it or not, the Camden markets are a relatively new addition to London, as the area surrounding Camden Lock was used primarily for agricultural and industrial purposes before the 1800s.
Camden Market Highlights⚫ Out of the six markets, Camden Lock Village is perhaps the most famous. This covered market is fully packed with all sorts of beautiful, handmade items.
⚫ At Camden Lock Market you can find food stalls (货摊)offering food from all over the world, as well as handmade jewelry(珠宝), second-hand clothing, books, and other household items you won’t find anywhere else in the city.
⚫ Check out Inverness Street Market. It may not be as big as the other Camden markets but don’t let that stop you, as here you will find a variety of specialty shops, and countless bars and restaurants.
⚫ Camden High Street is a highly popular shopping area and is packed with independent shops, pubs, and restaurants, many of which feature some interesting designs that are worth taking a photo of.

【推荐1】When we think of technology, we tend to think of computers, smartphones, and the Internet among other high-tech inventions. But technological development also applies to clocks. The creation of mechanical gears in clocks was a great leap forward for timekeeping devices. Here are just a few of the milestones in their history.
The Pendulum (钟摆) Clock
While clocks using springs and gears had already been invented by the 1500s, it was the pendulum clock developed by Christiaan Huygens in 1657 that gave timepieces a higher level of accuracy. The improvements Huygens made to the pendulum design made it 100 times more accurate than previous clocks. Rather than losing or gaining 15 minutes per day, Huygens' pendulum clocks were accurate within a minute per week.
The Power of Electricity
Clocks that used a battery began to be developed around 1815, but it wasn't until 25 years later that a Scottish clockmaker named Alexander Bain patented a clock powered by an electric current. Bain's clock still used a pendulum, but the pendulum was powered by electromagnetism. More than a hundred years later, in 1957, the first electric watches became available to the public.
Portable Watches
As clock technology advanced and mechanisms became more accurate and thinner, new types of timepieces that could be carried on a person were developed. The earliest of these were pocket watches, which were created in Switzerland in 1574. Centuries later, in 1812, Abraham-Louis Breguet produced the first wristwatch, which he gave to the Queen of Naples, Napoleon's younger sister. Originally, wristwatches were worn by women only and men continued to use pocket watches.

【推荐3】Hello, everyone! What is the true definition(定义) of Healthy Living? It sounds silly that we need to define Healthy Living. After all, we know what “Health” is and we also know what “Living” is. So today, let’s start by discussing what “Health” is.
Interestingly enough, health is not simply defined as just living without disease. The real definition of Healthy Living is the steps, actions and plans one puts in place to achieve the best possible health. Healthy Living is about making smart health choices for today and for the future. Eating right, getting fit and keeping a good emotional(情感的) condition are all part of creating healthy life. Since the whole of YOU, that is, all parts of yourself, must work in harmony together, you need to put balanced energy into each part of yourself.
The body or Physical： You need good nutrition(营养), proper weight, enough exercise and rest and proper stress management.
The mind of Emotional：You need correct thoughts and a proper self-image. You also need to give and receive love; you need to experience happiness and you need joyful relationships with yourself and others.
The Spiritual：You need inner calmness, openness to your creativity, and trust in your inner knowing. For some it needs having a relationship with a higher power.
Well, we all know when the body is out of balance, our body tells us right away. We might feel tired, catch a cold or become ill more often, but, believe it or not, we can also tell when the Emotional You is similarly out of balance.
