24、Niangao, also known as year cake or Chinese New Year’s cake, is a popular dessert eaten during Chinese New Year. Because the pronunciation of niangao sounds like “higher year”, it is considered good luck during the Chinese New Year.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, the whole country was divided into different small kingdoms and people suffered from the wars. At that time, Suzhou was the capital of the Wu Kingdom. Strong walls were built to protect Wu people. All of the people stopped worrying about the war, except for the Prime Minister Wu Zixu. He told his entourage(随从), “The strong wall is a good protection, but if the enemy fights with us, they can’t go inside, but we can’t go outside, either. If we eat up all the food, we will die from hunger. So remember to dig a hole under the wall.” Many years later, after Wu died, his words came true.

During the war, the army did what Wu Zixu had told them before and found that the wall under the earth was built with special bricks(砖) made from glutinous rice flour(糯米粉). This food saved many people from hunger. These bricks were the earliest niangao.

After that, people made niangao every year in memory of Wu Zixu. As time passed, niangao became the known Chinese New Year’s cake.

Florida teen band The Garbage-Men is performing on the stage. The band has five members. They are Jack Berry， Ollie Gray， Harrison Paparatto， Austin Siegel and Evan Tucker. The five teens are making music from waste. The Garbage-Men band’s instruments are made from recycled things. The guitars are boxes. A horn(号) is made from pipes. The keyboard is formed from old bottles.

The band started about two years ago. Jack Berry who was in eighth grade at the time decided to make a playable， home-made guitar， after some trial-and-error(反复试验)， he ended up building it from a cereal box， a yardstick and toothpicks. After Jack showed his creation to his friend Ollie Gray， Ollie had the idea to form a band using other home-made instruments as a way to improve recycling. “We want to show people there is more to recycling than throwing things away in the bin.” Jack， 16， told TFK. “You can actually reuse materials.”

Last year， the Garbage-Men played at local events， including festivals， farmer’s markets. Typically， the teens set up on the street and performed popular songs from the 1960s， including classic Beatles and crowd favorite “Wipe Out”. They talked about recycling and offered tips for how to improve the environment. While they were performing， Jack’s little brother Trent， 11， gave out leaflets about recycling and helped sell the band’s CDs and other musical products.

The band donated the money from sales to charity. They have raised more than $2，500 for Heifer International. The organization gives farm animals， seeds and agricultural training to people in poor countries to help end poverty and hunger. “It’s a good， sustainable-development (持续发展的)charity，” Jack says， “By donating one animal， you help the whole community.”

The band， all tenth graders， tries to play a show every week. They’ve also played on a Florida radio station. The teens hope to take their shows on the road by touring in other states. “Music is a really good way to get a good message across to people because it’s really close.” Jack says. Their instruments may be rubbish， but their message isn’t.
