Shanghai World Expo Experience Tour

During my business trip in China(中国Zhōngguó), I went to visit the Shanghai World Expo although my schedule was very tight and relaxed. This year it would be a big pity if you did not see the Expo if you had the chance to visit Shanghai. I did not want to miss the big highlight of Shanghai since I have been there.

Top 10 landmarks in China:Great Wall in Beijing

Located 73 kilometers from downtown Beijing, it is the essence section of the Great Wall. This well-preserved section was built about 1,400 years ago and reconstructed later under the Ming Dynasty. It joins the Juyong Pass in the west and Gubeikou in the east. The strategic importance of Mutianyu was obvious, as many battles took place there. The famous JiankouGreat Wall is located in the west of it. Besides, it features a splendid view because of a plant coverthat reaches 90 percent. In addition, it is equipped with a world-class cable car and provides entertainments, offering more fun to visitors.

Doing for Guangzhou What the Olympics Did for Beijing China

With the pan-Asian sporting games heading to China(中国Zhōngguó) in Year 2010 it is the hope of the people of Guangzhou(广州Guǎngzhōu) that these games can do to their city what the Olympic did for Beijing and to a lesser extent what the 2010 World Expo has done for Shanghai(上海Shànghǎi) City. After winning the right to host the games in Year 2004 the city has been working furiously to give itself a major makeover in time to impress its major neighbours.

New rabbits can glow in the dark

As part of an effort to improve treatments for life-threatening illnesses, a team of scientists have created rabbits that glow in the dark.为了促进研究治疗危害人类疾病的方法,近日一组科学家培育出了一种会在黑暗中发光的荧光兔。
Their efforts produced two rabbits out of a litter of eight that went from being a normal, fluffy white to glowing green in the dark. The rabbits were born at the University of Istanbul as part of a collaboration between scientists from universities in Turkey and Hawaii.这一窝一共有八只兔子,其中两只从正常的毛绒绒白兔变成了在黑暗中发绿光的荧光兔。这两只兔子是在伊斯坦布尔大学诞生的,由土耳其和夏威夷大学的科学家合作研发。
The rabbits glow to show that a genetic manipulation technique can work efficiently, though the specific color is more cosmetic than scientific. "The green is not important at all – it's just a marker to show the experiment can be done successfully," said University of Hawaii associate professor Stefan Moisyadi.这些荧光兔子的成功培育,表明基因操作技术是可行的,尽管这个颜色只是个表象,并不具有多大的科学意义。“绿色一点都不重要——这只是表明实验可以成功进行,”夏威夷大学副教授斯特凡·莫伊斯雅迪说。
To produce the glowing effect, researchers injected jellyfish DNA into a mother rabbit's embryos. Those altered embryos were then inserted back into the mother. Similar experiments have resulted in glowing cockroaches and cats.为了产生这种荧光效果,研究人员在一只母兔的胚胎中注入了水母的DNA,之后再把这些变异的胚胎植回母体。类似的实验还曾培育出荧光蟑螂和荧光猫。
Eventually, the researchers hope the technique can lead to new ways to produce medicines, Moisyadi said. The rabbits are expected to have the same life span as their non-glowing counterparts, but Moisyadi said he understands people can object to this kind of experimentation involving live animals.莫伊斯雅迪表示,最终,研究人员希望这项技术可以用于生产药物。这些兔子的寿命预计将会和普通兔子一样,但是莫伊斯雅迪说他理解人们可能会反对这种活体动物实验。

Top 10 landmarks in China:Summer Palace in Beijing

The Summer Palace lies in the northwestern outskirts of Beijing. It is the largest and best preserved royal garden in China. Occupying an area of 290 hectares, the park consists mainly of a hill, called Longevity Hill and a lake, Kunming Lake, with halls, towers, galleries, pavilions, bridges and islands dotted all over. Blending southern Chinese-style garden architecture with northern China's natural landscapes, the gardens are probably the best of their kind when it comes to Chinese garden architecture. In December 1998, UNESCO included the Summer Palace on its World Heritage List.
