21、You may often hear some myths(传言)about animals. For example, one dog year equals about seven human years, chameleons(变色龙)change color to match their environment... Today, let's talk about birds. It is said that if you touch a baby bird, the parents will completely abandon(抛弃)it. Do you really believe it?
In fact, most birds have a very poor sense of smell, so in most cases they are unable to even notice the smell of humans on baby birds. Not only that, but most types of birds aren't so quick to abandon their young when they sense danger. Some types will even do their best to protect their young when they are in danger.
Indeed, in very few known cases, parent birds sometimes abandoned their nests from something touching their young, just because they noticed it by sight, not smell. When this happens, the parent birds usually won't care, other than to be a little more careful than normal. Sometimes, they may temporarily(暂时地)abandon the nest in order to better watch whatever disturbed their nest comes back.
What's more, in most cases, even if the nest is destroyed by wind or something to that effect, you could create a new one and put all the baby birds back in it, and when the parents came back, they wouldn't care their baby birds were in a different nest, so long as you put the new nest near where the old one was so they can find it.
【1】Which of the following is true?
A.Birds have a very good sense of smell.
B.A baby bird will die soon if it is touched by someone.

A.will never come back
B.will worry about their babies
C.won't mind
D.will take their babies away

22、What a journey!
There's one journey I'll never forget. It was about six years ago. I was going to Hong Kong, from London. The flight was early in the morning, so I stayed in a hotel near the airport the night before. I was in a holiday mood that night, so I went to the hotel bar and ordered a drink to celebrate. And I got talking to some other people. We had a great time. When I left the bar, it was about three in the morning. The flight was at six o'clock, so it wasn't really worth going to sleep. I watched TV for a bit but I fell asleep. When I woke up it was after five o’clock. So I panicked, grabbed my bags and rushed outside, looking for a taxi. Of course - no taxis anywhere. Luckily, after a few minutes running up and down the street, an airport bus came along, so I got on that. When I got there it was actually nearly six, so I thought the gate must be closed. I'd missed my plane. The whole terminal(航站楼)was empty except for a huge crowd of people at one end and luckily, that was the queue for my flight. It was delayed! Yeah. I was real pleased. But the delay went from one hour, to four hours to finally nine hours! Nine hours waiting in the airport. I slept on some chairs most of the time. Finally, at around three o' clock, the plane took off. But the worst part came! After a few hours there was a huge storm and the plane started bouncing all over the place - I remember feeling it was like being in a washing machine. People were screaming babies crying and food flying everywhere. I was really scared. And then! The worst thing of all - the oxygen masks dropped down. Suddenly we all were staring at these yellow oxygen masks and the feeling of fear - I just can't describe it. I put my mask on and just sat there in absolute terror, with the plane bouncing all over the place and lightning outside the windows Anyway the plane didn't crash, thank God, and we got to Hong Kong in the end, but what a journey! I'll never forget it.

Pei tried to include local (当地的) and historical ideas in his designs. When designing Suzhou Museum in the 2000s, Pei made the building go with the city. He built small halls with traditional white walls and dark roofs (屋顶), just like the classical Chinese gardens which Suzhou are famous for. At the same time, the lines and the windows in the roof bring something modern to the museum.
Even in Pei's 80s when he was designing the Museum of Islamic Art in Doha, Qatar, he still kept learning new things. He spent months in the Middle East visiting special places. "A lasting building will always find the place where it comes from," Pei said. That may explain why he and his designs have stood the test of time.
