Project in Singapore
The fantastic man-made “forest” is a Singapore landmark. It is made from steel and concrete(水泥) covered in local flowers and plants. At night, 18 solar-powered tree-like towers which get their energy from the sun often light up the city. The project was awarded “the World Building of the Year” and its designer said the idea was to create “a city in a garden”. Clearly, the special way of building up the forest makes a difference to lifting the public’s awareness about environment.
Project in Milan
By decorating the buildings from top to bottom with more than 20,000 trees and plants, Italian architect Stefano Boeri said he’d wanted to make trees part of the buildings and create something that could help to reduce pollution. These buildings lie in the center of the city, Milan. Which types of trees are planted and where the trees are planted depend on the trees’ likes for sunlight. There is no doubt that this award-winning project is a great work.
Project in Medellin

When everyone was ready, Peter knocked on the door gently.
The door opened slowly, and a lady came out. It was Wendy. The boys all took off their hats “Where am I?” Wendy asked.
Of course, Slightly was the first to get a word in.
“Wendy lady,’’ he said quickly, “we built this house for you.’’
“Oh, please say you like it!” cried Nibs.
“What a lovely, lovely house,” Wendy said. The boys were delighted. “We are your children.” said the twins.
They all lowered their knees and held out their arms.
“Oh, Wendy lady, please be our mother!” they cried in union.
“I would love to,” said Wendy, “but you see I am only a little girl. I have no experience of being a mother.”
“_______” said Peter. “We just need a nice motherly person.”
“Oh, really?” Wendy said. “I think that is exactly what I am.’’
“It is. It is!” they all cried.
“Very well,” she said, “I will do my best. Come inside now you naughty children. I think there’s just enough time for me to finish the story of Cinderella before I put you to bed.”
They went in, and that was the first of the many joyful evenings they had with Wendy. By and by she made them comfortable in the big bed in their home under the trees. But she herself slept that night in the little house. Peter kept watching outside with a sword(剑), because the pirates(海盗) could be heard drinking far away, and the wolves were going about for food. The little house looked very warm and safe in the darkness. After some time, Peter fell asleep, and all was still and quiet in the Neverland.

Over 5 million shared bikes in China are using services offered by Beidou Navigation Satellite System(北斗卫星导航系统). These shared bikes all use Beidou based positioning chips(芯片).
The chips have high qualities. They can deal with information accurately and quickly. They feature low power consumption. They provide a better user experience and easier management for the local companies. Now, several new models of shared electric bikes with Beidou-based chips have also started to be produced and put into market. Besides positioning and navigation, the chips will help users and bike companies record user speed and battery condition of an electric bike.

According to a research in 2022, by the end of 2021the total value connected with satellite navigation and positioning services in China was 469 billion yuan, a 16.3-percent increase year-on-year. More than 500,000 Chinese people now work at around 14.000 China’s companies and organizations doing business connected with Beidou and other satellite navigation and positioning services.

People use colour expressions to show their feelings and describe the world. Many colour-related phrases are common in our speech. Let’s see where they came from.
•The Blues
The phrase is a short form of “the blue devils”, which also stands for sad feelings. This expression is also used to describe a type of jazz music that became popular in the south of America in the 1940s.
•Black Sheep of the Family
The phrase refers to a member of a family or a group who is unacceptable. In the old days, the black sheep were sold at a lower price than the white ones at the market, because their fleece(羊毛) could not be coloured. This made the black sheep an unwelcome member of the group.
•A Red-letter Day
A Red-letter Day is a day when something really exciting and memorable(难忘的) happens.
