The torch of it appeared in public for the first time on 27 February. It's named “Zhu Meng”. That means “ Bamboo Dream” in Chinese and sounds like “ chasing dreams”. The torch's design comes from the Grand Bronze Standing Figure(青铜大立人像), which is from the Sanxingdui. It is one of China's oldest cultures. The torch's design comes from bamboo too. In China, bamboo stands for strength. It perfectly shows sports spirit. Using the Grand Bronze Standing Figure as the body part in the torch shows the wisdom(智慧) of Chinese culture. The torch looks like a tall figure and a proud bamboo shoot. The top of the torch is like a young bamboo shoot with two buds(芽) stretching out. This shows an open and friendly China welcoming the world. The torch's nozzle(喷嘴) is like the Sun-shaped Crown worn by the Grand Bronze Standing Figure. It shows Chengdu's deep culture and carries the wish to give sports players endless power, like the sun. At the bottom of the torch, a phoenix-shaped holy bird holds it up. This reminds us of an old saying,“When a boly bird soars and sings, peace reigns over the world.” It shows China's rich culture and our hope for world peace. 41.When did the torch make its first appearance to the public?                                                                                   42.Why is bamboo a good choice for the torch's design according to the passage?                                                                                   43.What does the design of the top of the torch show?                                                                                   44.

To me, it means developing love and kindness. One experience that made me realize I had grown up was helping my grandmother after her surgery.I only cared about playing before, but this time, I stayed with her, brought her water, and even read to her.Seeing her smile, I understood that true growth means caring for others. From this, I learned that growing up isn't just about skills or knowledge, but also about love and responsibility. Now, I try to help more, whether at home or at school, because real growth happens when we think of others. 第1页，共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
