Wang Xingxing, their "boss" and the founder of Unitree Robotics, became an overnight star. Wang didn't use to be a "star" student. He had trouble with English and often failed English tests. Yet, he loved building small machines and creating new things. When he studied robotics in college, his talent finally found its voice. Today, the man who couldn't shine in English has made the world amazed at Chinese robotics. Wang's story proves that the Bucket Theory is not always the case. According to the theory, the amount of water a bucket can hold depends on its shortest board. Similarly, the weakest part of people often decides his overall performance. That's why it is generally believed the key to success lies in improving one's weakness instead of developing his strongest points However, Wang focused his strengths on robotics, kept trying and created new possibilities. In fact, everyone has their own advantages. But how can you discover them? Let's start by thinking about what you enjoy and what comes naturally to you. For example, if you love drawing, try joining an art club or taking a design course. Also, try new activities, and you might uncover some hidden talents. Maybe you've never tried programming before, but after a workshop, probably you will realize you have a gift for it. Finally, never stop learning; it opens doors to new interests and skills. 19.

The Effect of the Bucket Theory B When my sister Louisa and I attended Mr. Hawkins' school, we had to walk through thick woods every day. There was no proper road, s our father marked trees with cuts to guide us. For most of the winter, we followed the trees safely, but one morning, everything changed. That morning, a heavy snow began to fall. Mother stood at the door, saying worriedly, "John, the snow's getting heavy. The children should stay home today." Dad shook his head. "A little snow never hurt anybody. When I was their age, I walked through worse. They'll be just fine." We left happily, but as we walked farther, the snow covered the marked trees, and we gradually (逐渐地) lost our way. We decided to head north to follow a young man's footprints. However, the snow kept falling harder, and the footprints became unclear. Louisa held my arm so hard. "Oliver, what if we never find the way?" Her voice was shaking I tried to look brave. “I'll get us out of here. Just stay close to me." Inside, though, my heart was beating fast. Then a thought hit us: what if these weren't a man's footprints at all? What if they belonged to a bear? We couldn't help crying, realizing we were truly lost. But we knew a little about the woods-not much, but maybe enough. We calmed down and kept following the footprints. Finally, we walked into a clearing and saw a small house. We ran over and knocked. To our surprise, it was our neighbor Aunt Polly who opened the door. When she heard our story, she laughed, "So you two brave ones were following my old cow Bessie! She's smarter than she looks and brought you right to my door." Aunt Polly took us in, warmed us up by the fire, and sent us home safely.

Agatha Christie, the Queen of Mystery, is the bestselling novelist of all time. She wrote 66 detective novels and many short-story collections. Her works have sold over 2 billion copies and been translated into more than 100 languages. Agatha was born on September 15, 1890, in Torquay, England. As she was growing up in the quiet town, her mother often told her stories. Agatha loved these stories that transported her into a world of fantasy. Her mother also encouraged her to write from a young age. At 16, Christie went to a school in Paris to study piano and singing. She spent hours practising and learned to play the piano very well, but she never made music a career because of stage fright (怯场). At 22, she fell in love with Archie Christie. They married in 1914 at the beginning of World War I. Archie fought as a soldier, and Christie worked as a nurse and later in a hospital drugstore. This experience gave her knowledge of poisons (毒药), which she later used in many of her mystery plots. In 1920, her first novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, introduced the brilliant Belgian detective Hercule Poirot. Though refused by several publishers, it was finally published later the same year. After her first book, her career took off, and readers couldn't get enough of her characters, especially Poirot. Over 30 of her novels center on him. Christie also traveled widely and used her travels as an inspiration for several books, including Murder on the Orient Express and Death on the Nile. Agatha Christie was made a dame (女爵士) of the British Empire in 1971 for her contributions to literature. She passed away on January 12, 1976, at age 85. Her clever plots, unexpected twists (转折) and unforgettable characters continue to attract fans to her timeless works of mystery. 27.

Since its start in 2000, the Huaxia Ancient Music Orchestra of the Henan Museum has reproduced and restored more than 1,000 ancient Chinese musical instruments. And it has discovered and performed nearly 200 ancient Chinese songs. With instruments and scores (乐谱), most orchestras can perform at any time. However, the Huaxia Ancient Music Orchestra has to make its instruments first, as the ancient instruments they need are cultural treasures and cannot be used. Yuan Jiayin, a musician of the orchestra, often plays an ancient Chinese folk song with Se, an ancient traditional Chinese musical instrument. Since it has long been lost in China, Yuan has to do a lot to answer questions about the authenticity (真实性) of the instrument. "We try to explain everything about Se. We also explain how we restore and recreate the instrument," Yuan said. The orchestra is famous for its ancient Chinese music, but it never stops there. To bring something new to the audience, it uses old instruments to play pop and classical pieces. In this way, it brings together the old and the new, and also the Chinese and the Western. The orchestra performs twice a day and three times on holidays at the Henan Museum. It plays to a full house almost every time. “Culture cannot stay alive on its own. We must put in great effort and let more people learn about it—not only with their eyes, but also with their ears" said Huo Kun, head of the orchestra. 51. When did the Huaxia Ancient Music Orchestra of the Henan Museum start? 52. How many ancient Chinese songs has the orchestra discovered and performed? 53. Why does Yuan Jiayin do a lot to answer questions about the authenticity of Se? 54. How does the orchestra bring something new to the audience? 55. What can we do to keep ancient Chinese music alive?
