Pink has never been one of the favorite colors of the fashion industry,as it's often seen as silly and not cool enough.But this spring,it's having its moment in the spotlight,all thanks to the fact that the color is no longer all about being girly and sweet.Instead,pink is taking on a new meaning of independence and power.
This shift happened last month during the Women's March.Tens of thousands of women filled the streets of major cities in the US and in countries all around the world to protest(抗議)against the disrespect to women.What was unusual about the protests is that a lot of people taking part were wearing pink hats,making the streets appear like a "sea of pink".Even though the hats were without any slogan(標(biāo)語),their pink color is thought to have sent out a message that is louder than any words."We women have power and we're not going to sit down and shut up," Aileen Gildea,one of the protesters in the US,told The Boston Globe.
Now young people are changing their attitudes to pink.They are no longer trying to escape pink,but give new meanings to it instead.
"Women who came before us ...to be taken seriously they had to get away from the symbols used to make women seem less capable.Younger women don't have that reaction.They're more interested in breaking and rebuild those symbols,"Audrey Gelman,a businesswoman in the US,told The Wall Street Journal.
So sometimes it's not the thing itself that needs to be changed,but the way we look at it.And in the case of pink, what used to be seen as silly may be turned into something really serious.
1.In general,people tend to relate pink to .
A. independence B. weakness
C. power D. sadness
2.According to Aileen Gildea,what were their protests meant to convey?
A. Women actually prefer pink to any other color.
B. Women need to get away from those symbols of silliness.
C. Women ought to have a bigger voice in society.
D. Women should have the right to choose whatever colors.
3.The last paragraph implies that sometimes it is necessary to .
A. change our traditional concepts
B. show greater respect for women
C. have doubts about the so-called "truth"
D. tell something silly from something serious

How to save money to visit Shanghai Disneyland?
The “happiest place on earth” is a top destination on many families’ bucket lists. But taking a vacation to Disney World can be difficult to do on a budget. There are some considerations that you can make to reduce the cost of your Disney World vacation.
1. Buy Souvenirs in Advance
Disney has influenced practically every industry, which makes it easy to find Disney items anywhere, from Walmart, Target, and your local grocery store to department stores and Amazon. You can save a lot of money by purchasing items before your trip at these less-expensive places than at Disneyland.
2. Make an Autograph Book
An autograph (親筆簽名)book is seen as a must-have by many Disneyland enthusiasts and is a memory you can take home with you. These books can cost anywhere from $7.95 to $19.95 at the Disney Store and up to $30 for the latest-and-greatest autograph book at Disneyland, such as the park's 60th anniversary edition. Other choices can get the job done for under $5. For example, you can buy a small photo album; cute pads or notebooks.
3. Eat Breakfast Before You Arrive
Breakfast is almost as pricey as lunch or dinner if you eat inside the Disneyland parks. If you have a hotel with a free breakfast, take advantage of it. If you want to eat out, eat at a local restaurant that is inexpensive or has a kids' menu, such as McDonald's which is close to the park.
4. Take Advantage of Discounts Offered to Special Groups
Disney offers a wide variety of discounts, including for military service members, college students, teachers, and youth groups. If you think you might qualify for a special discount or group rate, call the Disneyland Resort to book tickets.

Small and round transparent water bottles filled with natural water could help provide a solution to London's plastic waste problem,according to Skipping Rocks Lab,the company in the British capital that produces them.They added that the balls have been made of plant and seaweed extracts and will decompose(分解)after four to six weeks if not consumed.
With many cities struggling to get rid of vast numbers of used plastic water bottles,the 'Ooho' has begun to meet the thirst of consumers in San Francisco and London.A report published last Thursday said more than 4,000 plastic bottles had been removed from the River Thames in a month last year,proving the scale of the waste problem.
"We think Ooho may not be the solution for all the applications that plastic bottles have,but definitely for short term consumption it could be a solution,"said Rodrigo,the founder of Skipping Rocks Lab.In a trial near London Bridge last Wednesday,Ooho drew a mixture of surprise,amusement and delight among those who sampled them. London's city assembly said Ooho was a step forward."It could be part of the solution but not the only solution.You also need to be able to refill bottles at railway stations for example,"said Leonie Cooper,the Chair of the assembly's environment committee.
The company aims to target,among other consumers,marathon runners,who will be able to eat the Oohos mid-race without concerns about the environment.It is also considering sealing alcohol for a whole new market. "People see these small round bubbles and they just think 'shots'.So that's definitely something we're looking at,"said Skipping Rocks Lab Chief Operating Officer Lise."We have sealed alcohol,we want to perfect it,and hopefully this will be the great change of the future."
1.'Ooho' can help solve the plastic waste problem because .
A. it is small and transparent B. it is filled with natural water
C. it is made of plant and seaweed D. it can disappear some time later
2.How is Rodrigo's comment on 'Ooho'?
A. Subjective. B. Unreal.
C. Objective. D. Ridiculous.
3.In which column can we find the text?
A. Technology and Invention. B. Health and Medicine.
C. Industry and Economy. D. Tourism and Development.
