Each bird has its own way of singing. One bird might sing" tweet-tweet-trill", while. another goes" chirp-chirp-peep". There was a common idea that birds sang a lot in the morning because there was less wind and air movement during the time so that their sounds could travel farther.

D A Firework(烟花) Show on Himalayas(喜马拉雅山): Art or Harm? Recently,a firework show named Rising Dragon lit up theHimalayas, but it quickly turned from praise to controversy (争议) . Held by an outdoor brand and artist Cai Guoqiang at 5,500 meters above sea level, the show created a" dragon" with colorful fireworks along the mountains. While some called it" stunning (惊人的) art",many raised questions about its environmental impact (环境的巨大影响). The Himalayas have a really fragile(脆弱的) ecosystem. Scientists explain that a single leaf of grass there takes years to grow, and break could take many years to repair. Scientists worry that noise and smoke might scare(使惊吓) wildlife preparing for winter, and chemical dust could keep in the cold dry air. State media like People’ s Daily criticized(批评) the event,saying art and business must respect nature. True respect for nature isn't showing off with fireworks on sacred mountains, but staying humble. The brand and artist have apologized(道歉), but real action to fix any harm is more important.
