Composition of the opening ceremony of the World Expo

The world-famous Expo will be held in Shanghai, a city in a developing country. Therefore, we have a lecture on the World Expo.

"The first real World Expo was held in London, England in 185 1 year, and at every World Expo, there will be some interesting episodes. For example, in the first World Expo, China brought Moutai, which many people didn't know at first ... ""Teacher, I know. " The teacher was interrupted. The teacher was not angry, but smiled at the classmate who was talking and encouraged him to go on. "Later, a staff member accidentally knocked over a bottle of wine, which spilled on the carpet, but the smell of wine immediately filled the whole venue. Later, they put Moutai in small cups, and more and more people watched it, and Moutai became famous in one fell swoop. " "Very well, the story of maotai wine is really interesting. There are many other things that people are familiar with now, which were exhibited at the World Expo before. Like yellow sword and green arrow. Do you know why the cone is also called' the horn of the World Expo'? " Speaking of which, the teacher sold a lock. We look at me, I look at you, racking our brains to come up with the answer "Come on, teacher!" " "Some students are anxious to shout." Because once at an Expo, there was a little girl with an egg cone in her hand, and everyone said,' Please taste it for free'. Because the cone looks a bit like a horn, it is called "the horn of the World Expo". ""Teacher, what is on display at the World Expo? "A classmate asked." The things on display at the World Expo are of great significance to human civilization. But not necessarily in kind. An abstract thing can also be exhibited, such as the Blue Danube exhibited at the World Expo. ""teacher, then ... "We are scrambling to raise our hands to ask questions, lest the teacher notice us.

Although we have learned about the Expo in advance, the teacher has brought us some knowledge about the Expo that we don't know. It is said that China is hosting the World Expo for the first time, so when we heard that Yunnan once hosted the World Expo, we all opened our mouths and stared at our teachers in surprise. The teacher smiled and answered our doubts: "There are two kinds of world expositions, one is comprehensive, that is, the Expo held in Shanghai on 20 10, and the other is professional, just like the one held in Yunnan that year. And the duration of these two events is completely different ... "The teacher talked endlessly, but we listened attentively, for fear of missing a word, and some even took out their notebooks and kept writing.

The teacher also talked about the meaning of the emblem of the World Expo: the figure of three people hugging each other in the emblem looks like a happy family of three; It can also be abstractly summarized as "you, me and him", which expresses the concept of "understanding, communication, convergence and cooperation" in the World Expo, is permeated with the Chinese national spirit of advocating harmony and aggregation, and embodies the active pursuit of people-oriented in the 20 10 Shanghai World Expo. The emblem looks like the Chinese character "World", which is skillfully combined with the number "20 10" to complement each other, expressing the strong desire of the people of China to hold a world-class and multicultural World Expo. The emblem, with green as the main color, is full of vitality, adding upward, upward and bright movement and meaning, and expressing the creative passion of China people facing the future and pursuing sustainable development. The word "teacher" in China's calligraphy is similar to the word "Jing" in the seal cutting of the emblem of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, which symbolizes two super-large international competitions held in China at the beginning of this century and tells the story of China people's unremitting efforts to promote traditional culture while integrating into the world. Haibao, the mascot of the World Expo. Haibao is a neutral (slightly male) anime character. Although he is now a "human" image, his original prototype is actually a "big" character. It is said that his "father" once had coffee in a coffee shop, holding the banknote at hand and struggling to conceive the image of Haibao on the reverse side of the banknote. Suddenly, he found that writing "people" was more in line with the theme of "Better City, Better Life" than writing "big". Thus, Haibao was born. The teacher also asked us to guess the constellation of Haibao, which confused us. So what constellation will the lovely Haibao be? Some students immediately put forward a guess: "Leo." The teacher smiled and shook his head. "Virgo." "Aquarius." "Sagittarius." Everyone reported their answers in succession, but they were always silent with a smile. Neither! Everyone has some anxiety on his face. Seeing that everyone lost their appetite, the teacher slowly reported the answer: "Libra. Because he means fair. " We suddenly realized: Yes, the World Expo is a global event, and everything is fair and just. Haibao, as a mascot, naturally bears the brunt of becoming the spokesperson of the Expo! Then, the teacher showed us many photos of Haibao wearing different clothes, some wearing kimonos, others wearing traditional Mexican clothes ... Only then did we know that Haibao has many forms, but carefully we found that no matter which country Haibao wears clothes, he is blue. The teacher explained: "Blue represents the ocean, because Shanghai is a country short of water, so Haibao is actually an image ambassador to appeal to everyone to save water resources."

"The Expo has five highlights: China, the future, the world, culture and technology. There are also two major innovations: urban best practice areas and online exhibitions. In addition to these, there is a very good building, that is, the old chimney of Heather Power Plant, which has been transformed into a sightseeing tower. The only way to get up and down this 200-meter-high chimney is to take its' space capsule'. " More than 200 meters? So high, we can't help patting our chests and thinking: Who will be the first person to eat crabs?

In addition, the teacher also introduced us to the five permanent venues of the Expo: Expo Axis, Performing Arts Center, www.zUowenreN.com Pavilion in China, Theme Pavilion and Expo Center. The teacher also revealed an interesting rule to us: if everyone likes other non-permanent buildings, the government of the host city can come forward to buy them and keep them as permanent buildings. We can't help whispering: "Who is so talented to create this law!"

This lecture gave us a deeper understanding of the Expo, which not only increased our understanding of the Expo, but also made us like it.
