The first URL you went to uses the full filename to access the file (includes
the .en.html ending). Most of the links in the site do not contain the
extensions, so when the browser requests a file and suggests a language, the
version of a file in that language can be returned (English is returned if
nothing can be agreed upon).
As I said, read http://www.debian.org/misc/cn.en.html so you can learn
how to correct the problem.
