Spoken English Develops in Speeches.CIts International Polar Bear Day today, so if you live near the Arctic Circle, hug the closest polar bear. Actually, do not do that an adult male polar bear is nearly half a ton of hungry killer, and they are
27、extremely dangerous. Still, the beasts deserve a little tenderness.The polar bear is now considered a vulnerable (脆弱的) species, under threat from the loss of its sea ice habitat. To draw attention to their serious situation, Google is now offering images of polar bears in their native environment vi
28、a its Street View program, which show polar bears doing their polar bear thing.Many scientists and conservationists fear that there may be far fewer polar bears in the next 10 years, thanks mostly to the effects of climate change. Polar bears use sea ice as a platform to reach their preymainly seals
29、and summer sea ice is melting fast. As the ice disappears, polar bears are forced to swim longer and longer distances to reach those hunting platforms, which is killing many of the species. Exactly how vulnerable polar bears are is not clear, partially due to the fact that they live in such a forbid
30、ding climate to humans and that polar bears are not exactly friendly. That makes getting a proper count challenging. But Google is helping with this as well: researchers are using Google Earth satellite images to count polar bears from space.Still, most experts agree that there are about 20,000 to 2
31、5,000 polar bears alive a dangerously small number. Theres also evidence that polar bears are changing their dietary habits, possibly to adapt to the loss of sea ice.

35、 evidence about the past was rooted in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Such an idea was, until recently, reflected in museum displays. Museums used to look much like storage rooms of objects packed together in showcases. This was good for scholars who wanted to study the slight differe
36、nces in design, but not for ordinary visitors.Recently, however, attitudes towards history and the way it should be presented have changed. The key word in heritage(遗产) display is now “experience”, the more exciting the better and, if possible, involving all the senses. On some heritage sites the re
37、-enactment(重演) of historical events is becoming increasingly popular. And in the future computers will provide virtual reality (虚拟现实) experiences, which will present visitors with a vivid image of the period of their choice, in which they themselves can act as if part of the historical environment.I
38、n a related development, the clear dividing line between museums and heritage sites on the one hand, and theme parks on the other, is gradually disappearing.

Of course, museums and heritage sites are also
40、considering how to survive in such a challenging environment. Heritage and museum experts do not have to invent stories and recreate historical environments to attract their visitors: their artifacts(人工制品) and relics are already in place. However, exhibits must be both based on artifacts and facts a
41、s we know them, and attractively presented. Those who are trained and experienced in the art of interpreting history are thus in a difficult position, as they must walk a narrow course between the requirements of “evidence” and “attractiveness”, especially given the increasing need in the heritage i

Normally, one worker can finish one to two buckets every day.In the 1980s,
47、with the popularization of plastic products, wooden buckets gradually fell out of favor. Many craftspeople, including Bao, therefore changed jobs to earn more money. 38 Luckily, with the discovery and development of lacquer(漆) arts a decade ago, buckets were once again in demand. 39 Baos work has ga
48、ined admiration not only in China but also in other countries such as Japan and the US. Thanks to support from local government, Bao now owns a gallery for displaying his buckets to visitors.In Baos hometown, about 10 craftspeople still study and practice the handicraft. 40 Bao used to have a few ap
