24、Have you ever tried scuba-diving(戴水肺潜水)? It is a very wonderful experience. Scuba is a kind of machine which can help people breathe under the water for a long time. The machine is invented by Jacques Cousteau and his friend.

Cousteau, a French man, is full of new ideas. Since he was a child, he has dreamed of diving (潜水) deep to see the wonderful world under the sea. Later with the help of the scuba machine, his dream was realized. Cousteau took lots of pictures and videos of many strange things that people had never seen before. He spent eight years making a TV show named The Undersea World of Jacques Cousteau. People were surprised at so many beautiful things under the water.

Cousteau loved the coral reels(珊瑚礁) and the colorful fish very much. However, he was sad to see that the beautiful coral reels were dead and grey when he returned some years later. He tried his best to encourage people not to pollute our seas and oceans any more.

25、The Chinese youth are quick to accept products (产品) based on traditional and popular culture. This time, some young students got a chance to design such products by themselves.

In a college design competition named “The Heart of Beijing — Young Interesting You”, players were asked to make their own designs to spread Beijing’s culture, such as the Temple of Heaven, Bell Tower and Drum Tower. Thousands of students handed in their designs.

Li Weiyu won the competition. She was a student who graduated from Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology. “I designed several sets of jewellery. In my work, I mixed the elements (元素) of traditional culture with people’s preferences (偏好) in modern life, which I thought most players were doing. I didn’t simply put the elements together, but chose the parts that were symbols of culture, like the wings of a kite shaped like a Chinese swallow. I thought they were really pretty and special,” she said.

Lu Xiaoyin, leader of Perfect World Games, said the meaning behind hosting the competition was getting young people to realize that they had a duty to protect Chinese traditional culture.

“Chinese traditional culture is rich and has a lasting influence. But many young people don’t think they have a relationship with it. So it is very important to create products that will attract younger people, making them understand it easily. This will create interest for them and encourage them to carry the culture forward,” said Lu.

The crash between traditional and popular culture is opening up thousands of years of Chinese history in creative and unusual ways. And the work includes the creative ideas of these young people, who are giving fresh meaning to the saying “Everything old is new again”.

【1】What made Li Weiyu’s product different from the others’?

A．She simply put the elements together.

B．She added some symbols of culture to her work.

C．She handed in her designs earlier than the others.

A．make the Chinese youth accept new products

B．protect and spread Chinese traditional culture

C．know if students can create products by themselves

D．let people realize the importance of the youth’s works

【3】What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A．Chinese swallows.

A．mix old things with new ones

B．make all old things become new

C．help more young people love traditional culture

26、A crow lived in a thick forest filled with many birds. The crow was very happy with carefree life until he saw a swan one day. The swan was flying over a lake. “This swan is so white,” he thought, “and I am so black. It must be the happiest bird in the world.”

He shared his thoughts with the swan. “Actually,” the swan replied, “I thought so, too, until I met a parrot. It had brilliant colours of red and blue. No other bird could be happier than the parrot.”

The crow went off in search of the parrot and found it resting on the top of an old tree. The parrot explained, “I, too, was very happy until I chanced upon a peacock. My colours paled in comparison to the peacock’s. Its rich colours put my coat to shame.”

Curiosity defeated the crow, who was determined to look for the beautiful peacock. He finally found the peacock at the zoo. Hundreds of people gathered around to watch the peacock and its beautiful feathers. After the crowd had left, the crow rested itself on a rock and said, “Dear peacock, you are so beautiful. Every day, people come just to see you. People either drive me away or avoid me when they see me. You must be the happiest bird on the planet.”

The peacock replied, “My beauty has forced me to be kept in this zoo. In the first few months I spent here, I often thought to myself that if I were a crow, I could be enjoying a carefree life outside. Then, after many months of struggling, I have come to realize that I need to learn to be happy with what I have instead of expecting what I do not have. I am happy because I am satisfied with my life here.”
