23．　　Once upon a time, there were four seeds(种子) who were good friends. They travelled by wind and came to a forest. They hid themselves in the ground, and hoped that they would be able to grow into big trees.
　　But when the first seed began to grow, they realized it would not be such an easy task. There lived a group of monkeys, and the smallest monkeys loved to throw bananas at any plant that started to grow. They threw so many bananas at the first seed that she was almost cut into two. When she told the other seeds what happened, they thought that it would be better to wait until the monkeys went away.
　　They all agreed with that except the first seed. She thought she would at least try it. When she tried harder, she was hurt by bananas. The other seeds asked her stop trying. But she had make up her mind to become a tree. She tried again and again. Every time she was hit by bananas, she would try harder. The scars (伤疤) left by the bananas helped her grow stronger than the other seeds. Later, she could withstand (经受住) the hit of the bananas. She had already grown so well that the monkeys couldn't hurt her badly. At last, she grew into the biggest tree in the forest. The other seeds still hid themselves in the ground, hoping the monkeys would go away soon. That's the way with a lot of things. The final victory always belongs to those who keep trying.

24．　　Every day since March 8, people all over the world keep asking the same question:Where did Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 go?It turns out to be the biggest mystery (神秘的事) in modern aviation (航空) history.
　　In the early hours of March 8, a Boeing 777 took off from Malaysia's capital Kuala Lumpur (吉隆坡). It was heading to Beijing. But about two hours into the flight, the plane lost contact. There were 239 people on board the Malaysia Airlines flight, including 154 Chinese. About 12 countries, including China, the US and Australia, have joined the search for the missing plane and passengers. The plane's disappearance was a "mystery", said officials. The plane was flying at a height of more than 10, 000 meters when it suddenly lost contact. The weather was clear.
　　The pilots didn't make any distress calls (求救信号). When a plane crashes, broken parts are usually recovered. But up to April 2, officials have not found anything. People are also talking about a possible hijacking. Interpol (国际刑警组织) said that two people on the flight used stolen passports. But that information alone isn't evidence(证据) of a hijack. The investigation (调查) is still going on. It could take months or even years to find out what happened to the flight. "We are looking at all possibilities," said Malaysian Transport Minister Hishamuddin Hussein. "The most important thing now is to find the plane."
　　On March 24 came a piece of sad news. Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak said that the plane "ended in the southern Indian Ocean". Everyone on the plane died. But the mystery is still not solved. Nobody is giving up. China has said it will work hard to find out the truth at all costs.

　　Sarah has got special training in working with these dangerous animals. She gives the animals raw (生的) meat every morning. Also, she gives milk to them in the afternoon. Besides, she takes visitors around the zoo and cleans the cages (笼子) with six other workers.

30．　　With people paying more attention to traditional culture, hanfu has become increasingly popular in recent years. People are often seen wearing hanfu to take photos. There are different opinions on the new trend (趋势) and here are some of them.
　　Wu Dake, a teacher in Shanghai, thinks clothing connects people to their cultural roots (根). According to him, everyone should be allowed to choose his or her clothing and lifestyle. He says most hanfu lovers wear the traditional dress only in special times like traditional festivals. It is a good way to show love for the country.
　　Zhang Yiwen is a teacher at Peking University. In his opinion, most Chinese people are unclear about their traditional dress. With growing calls for reviving (重新流行) traditional Chinese culture in recent years, many Chinese people have taken a liking to hanfu. By encouraging more people to wear hanfu, Zhang thinks we can also help develop other traditional clothing such as tangzhuang and chi-poo.
　　Zhang Bo, another teacher from Beijing, thinks it's natural that Chinese people are turning to traditional clothing and that people's love for hanfu actually shows their looking for cultural roots. But it should be made clear that this is not the revival of hanfu, because traditional dress has always been here and there.
