24、Emily and Alex were happy when their family moved to a house with a very big garden.

They could climb up trees, grow flowers and even play badminton. They liked to watch the birds flying among the trees in the garden. They even started to put food out to attract more birds.

Everything was fine for a few days until one afternoon there was a strange bumping noise on a window. Emily went outside and found a small bird dead on the grass. Its neck seemed to be broken.

“It must have flown into the window,” Alex said when his sister Emily called him to have a look. “Ah, yes, look here. You can see the mark where it hit the window. There are a couple of tiny feathers stuck(粘贴) on the window.”

“Poor thing!” Emily said.

During the next month, five more birds died in the same way. “Why would they fly to the windows?” they wondered. Finally they found out the truth. When the birds were flying, they couldn’t see into the rooms. All they saw was the reflection(反射) of the garden. They thought that they were flying into trees because they saw trees reflected by the window.

“Something has to be done to save the birds.” the parents decided.

At first, the family tried keeping curtains(窗帘)across the windows, but this made the room dark. Then they bought some strong black paper and cut out the shape of a hawk. They made six hawks – one for each window. They stuck the hawks to the windows. They looked pretty and did not keep out much light. When the birds saw the hawks, they would fly away.

25、   Reginald Johnston, a British scholar(学者), first walked into the Forbidden City in 1919, most palaces weren't allowed to visit. But a century later, when the People's Republic of China is to celebrate its 70th founding anniversary(建国周年纪念) in October, the 599-year-old palace complex(宫殿群) becomes the world's busiest museum.

Open to the public

In the old days, common people could only imagine what it looked like inside. When the Palace Museum was built in 1925, it was open to the public and people could go into the palaces. Now 80% of the total area of the museum is open to the public and it will increase to 85% in 2025.

Embracing(拥抱) the world

"It felt like you were walking into hundreds of years of history," Christopher Allen from Britain said. "I begin to love its history and culture."

The Forbidden City is becoming more open and friendly to visitors. It attracted about 3.5 million visitors from abroad and 9 overseas(海外的) exhibitions were held in 2018. The Palace Museum exhibition becomes cultural phenomenon(文化现象) everywhere it goes.

Attracting the youth(青少年)

On the Palace Museum's online store on Taobao, you can find more than 10,000 cultural products. The ones with cute pictures of emperors are very popular.

Some favourite products also go offline. For example, the "Kangxi Emperor's Favourite Chocolate", the most popular drink, always has people lining up to get a taste.

As child, Xu Jing often rode bike in front of the Meridian Gate(午门). "I had little memory of the museum before, but now I am more willing to visit it after watching several popular TV shows about the museum." she said.

26、   Do you like taking photos when you travel to a new place? Photos are a good way to keep your beautiful memories of a certain place. But you can't simply take photos everywhere.

Many people take photos in theaters, but this is actually not a good thing to do. The copyright（版权）of the shows needs to be protected. And taking photos during a show may also trouble others.

In museums, if there are“No Photos”signs, you should keep your camera off. Even if there are no such signs and you really want to take photos, at least turn off the camera’s flash. The flash can be bad for the antiques（古董）.

If you are going to travel abroad, remember not to take any photos at custom. In many countries you will face heavy punishment if you do it.

Also, when you are visiting a church（教堂）, it’s very impolite to take photos. If you are a fan of street snapping, be careful. Not everyone likes a stranger taking photos of them. Before taking a photo, ask him or her for permission.

Taking photos is not a bad thing, but you don't want to get yourself in trouble by doing it in the wrong place.
