A Century of Kowloon Roads and Street比較 博客來

博客來網路書店歡迎您 In 1861 the British formally occupied Kowloon. Since the main purpose of their occupation was military, except for a few enterprises such as the Whampoa Dock and the Kowloon Wharf, the scope of commercial development in Kowloon in the early years was limited.In 1898 the British leased the New Territories. Initially this new-acquired land was regarded as a military buffer area for Kowloon, but it also answered to the pressing need for land due to the increase of population. The acquisition hastened the development of several districts in Kowloon. Sham Shui Po, Lai Chi Kok and Kowloon Tong, north of the old boundary, were later incorporated into Kowloon, which was subsequently called “New Kowloon.” The first traffic artery in Kowloon, Robinson Road (later to become Nathan Road), was built to facilitate military troop and supply movements. By the closing years of the 19th Century, harbour reclamation and road building projects were underway in Tsim Sha Tsui, Yau Ma Tei and Hung Hom. With the opening of the Kowloon-Canton Railway in 1910, the establishment of the China Light & Power Company and the Green Island Cement Company, the first two decades of the 20th century saw further development in Hung Hom and Tsim Sha Tsui; the former gradually turned into an indus trial district while latter soon became a transport centre.By the 1920s, the terrain that obstructed the completion of a through-road network in Kowloon was overcome by levelling the surrounding hills. Most crucial to the development of this period was the completion in 1926 of the widening and extension of Nathan Road that joined Boundary Street and Tai Po Road. Nathan Road subsequently became the longest road in Kowloon which not only connected Kowloon with the New Territories, but also contributed to the development of Mong Kok. At the same time, Sham Shui Po and Kowloon City were gradually developed into residential/commercial areas. After the war, soaring population and the gradual restoration of economic activity brought about the rise of new residential and industrial districts one after another including Wong Tai Sin and Kwun Tong. Making use of original sources and rare historical photographs, this book systematically and succinctly traces the last one hundred years of the development of roads and streets in Kowloon. It is hoped that this volume will help the readers to further understand the development of Kowloon.Cheng Po-hung is well-known collector of Hong Kong historical materials, specializing in postcards, banknotes, stamps and documents.

伸展腰部不痠痛!善用空檔做大腿伸展操

【華人健康網圖文提供/世茂出版】日常生活中,希望大家特別注意,就是盡量避免長時間維持同一個姿勢,要注意不時轉移重心,或是做做伸展腰部的運動等等,有機會盡量放鬆腰部周圍的肌肉。

伸展腰部不痠痛!善用空檔做大腿伸展操

這種將雙腳前後打開進行的「大腿伸展操」,進行的當下可以感覺到整雙腳都能舒服地伸展開來。所以站著工作時,不妨趁空檔做做這項伸展操。

★大腿伸展操

右腳往前跨出去,再將右腳膝蓋彎曲,同時慢慢地將腰部往下方移動,然後保持不動20~30秒,接著回復原來的姿勢。左腳也以相同方式進行。上述動作須重複5次左右。

1.右腳往前跨出去後,雙手放在右腳大腿上

2.單腳往前跨一步,使雙腳打開與肩同寬

重點:

‧注意大腿是否有伸展到。

‧想要進階,可將腳踏在高約30 公分左右的腳踏台或階梯等地方進行,加強對大腿的刺激。
