Five years ago, a truly unforgettable event took place. My wife and I were celebrating our40th wedding anniversary (纪念日) that year.

continued to Yellowstone National Park.
It was a cold spring day, and the Beartooth Highway had opened for the season just days before. Alongside the road, there was still a great amount of snow there. The scenery was so impressive that we made lots of stops to record memories with my camera. At the highest point of the highway, I stopped at a lookout to catch the amazing views, with my wife in the centre of my camera lens.
There were not many cars on the road. Sometimes, cars with energetic young tourists passed by. And then we heard a motorcycle in the distance. The driver of the motorcycle, who wore dirty clothes, parked behind our cars. Approaching us, he spoke only a simple command,“Give me your camera and go over there with your wife.” I must admit I felt nervous that we might be robbed where we just created some beautiful memories. Surprisingly, he just took a picture of us, handed back my camera and rode off before we could offer our thanks.Unexpectedly, the photo he took is now one of the most valuable and prized of our trip.
In that unexpected encounter, I absorbed a lesson in the most unlikely of places. We should never judge a man by his appearance. To the motorcyclist who may one day read this story and remember us: we wish to extend our deepest appreciation and a heartfelt“Thank you” for the kindness you showed us that day.

Do you speak a dialect(方言) in daily life? While many Chinese people speak Mandarin(普通话), some local dialects are in danger of disappearing. To save them, the Chinese government started the Chinese Language Resources Protection Project a few years ago.
This project looks at how people talk in 1,712 places. Their languages include 103 dialects that are almost gone. It has helped China to build the largest language resource library in the world. There's an online library where people can learn dialects from over 5.6 million audio clips(音频) and over 5 million videos.
Why is it important to protect the dialect culture? According to British linguist HaroldPalmer, dialects are a key to store local cultures. Language faithfully shows the history, the beliefs and the biases(偏见) of an area, he said.
Scholar Zhang Hongming talked about his concerns of the disappearing of dialects,“For about over 10 years, in the Wu dialect areas such as Shanghai and Suzhou, children aged 6 to 15can understand but hardly speak the dialect. Meanwhile, young people above 15 years old sometimes speak it, but not very well. If this keeps happening, the dialect might disappear,” he said.
So how did China make this big library?‘A big national effort has been put into the project to make it happen,’ said Cao Zhiyun, chief expert on the project. Over five years, more than 350universities and research groups joined in, along with over 4,500 experts and more than 6,000

The Beatles was a legendary British rock band that remained second to Elvis Presley from the 1960s. It was made up of four musicians——John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr.

The song was initially written and partly recorded by Lennon in the late 1970s and furtherdeveloped by band mates years later but as technology then was limited, they didn't release it due to the sound quality not being satisfying.Peter Jackson most famous for directing The Lord of the Rings, directed the music video for Now and Then and it can be watched now online.

Since its release last week, the song has been well received in the UK. Beatles fans around the world favoured this historic musical event.
’ Now and Then is an absolutely heart-warming piece of work,“posted Liam Gallagher,whose hits were affected by The Beatles' musical style.
Of course, there are those who are not totally interested in the song." Now and Then is not terrible. But honestly, it's kind of boring,“Geoff Edgers wrote in The Washington Post.
The Times in the UK said the song showed Al being used to its best advantage.
32. Why was the song“Now and Then” not released at first?
A. The song was not completed.
B. The sound quality was not good enough.
C. The band members did not like the song.
D. The song was let out before its official release.
33. How did Peter Jackson contribute to the song?
A. He wrote and recorded the song.
B. He invented new audio restoration technology.
C. He restored the band members' sound using AI.
D. He played the guitar on the recording.
34. What is the attitude of The Limes towards the release of Now and Then?
A. Supportive. B. Curious. C. Unfavourable. D. Unclear.
