Summer Term in the School of Life will start on Friday 25 January 2015, in Collingwood, Melbourne, Australia and will become the first international school to open its doors. To make everyday life rich, the writer Alain de Botton has worked hard at getting the best ideas and the School of Life is his brainchild(构想). Since it began in London in 2009, more than 50,000 people have taken part in its programs and its new way of life-long learning is now well-known all over the world. Summer Term in the School of Life is a 10-week project offering a selection of the UK’s most popular programs, led by Australia’s thinkers. “We are very excited to start the School of Life in Australia. We can’t wait to start receiving our first guests(客人),” says Alain de Botton. Summer Term will include different classes, workshops and other special events held every Friday, Saturday and Sunday between 25January and 31 March. The conversation Café onsite will serve up a daily conversation menu, light food and of course, delicious coffee. “There has been a growing need among Australians to deal with the problems in life like love, creativity, work, money, nature and death. The School of Life Australia will provide a space for us to explore (探测) these subjects,” says Sara Tiefebtun, Project Director of the School of Life Australia. Program details for the School of Life Australia’s Summer Term will be announced in December 2013. For more information sign up to our mailing list at: www. theschoollife.com/ world/Australia.

Mail order is a term which describes the buying of goods or services by mail delivery(邮递). The buyer places an order for the desired products with the salesman through some remote method such as through a telephone call or a website. Then, the products are delivered to the customer. The products are typically delivered directly to an address supplied by the customer, such as a home address, but sometimes the orders are delivered to a nearby retail location for the customer to pick up. Some businessmen also allow the goods to be shipped directly to a third customer, which is an effective way to send a gift to an out|of|town friend. A mail order catalogue(目录)is a publication including a list of ordinary goods from a company. Companies who publish and operate mail order catalogues are treated as cataloguers within the industry. Goods are produced by people all over the world, such as in Australia, the USA, Canada, China etc. And now many cataloguers, just as with most retailers(零售商), are increasingly buying goods from China.
