In 1909. when Tatiana was just 11 years old, her parents and older brother traveled to the United States. Because the family didn’t have enough money to buy her a ticket, she had to remain in Russia.

She had lived with her uncle for almost a year in a small house before the special letter arrived from her father. “Dear Tatiana,” he wrote.” At last we have earned enough money to pay for your ticket. After you join us in New York, we will travel by train to a place called South Dakota where we have bought a farm.”

A week later, Tatiana’s uncle used the the money her father had sent to buy her a ticket for the Louisa Jane, a steamship that was leaving for America. Although she was lonely and missed her family, Tatiana quickly made friends with the other children on the Louisa Jane. Together, they invented games that could be played on the ship , and they ran around the decks(甲板）.

The next day, as Tatiana was walking along the deck, she heard some of the passengers talking about the Statue of Liberty. This conversation made her puzzled because she knew that liberty was an idea. No one could see or touch it, so how could you make a statue of liberty? When she asked her friend’s father, Mr. Dimitrivitch, he explained that the statue looked like a woman, but it stood for freedom. This explanation just made Tatiana more interested in the statue.

One morning , Tatiana woke up to the sound of wild shouting. She ran upstairs and found all the passengers were crowded onto the deck. The shouts were really cries of excitement because the Louisa, lane had finally reached the United States. When Tatiana realized that she would soon see her family again, she joined in with shouts of her own. Mr. Dimitrivitch had told her that the statue stood for freedom, and she finally understood what he meant.

While famous foreign architects are invited to lead the designs of landmark buildings in China such as the new CCTV tower and the National Center for the Performing Arts, many excellent Chinese architects are making great efforts to take the center stage.

Their efforts have been proven fruitful. Wang Shu, a 49-year-old Chinese architect, won the 2012 Pritzker Architecture Prize -which is often referred to as the Nobel Prize in architecture-on     February 28. He is the first Chinese citizen to win this award.

Wang serves as head of the Architecture Department at the China Academy of Art (CAA). His office is located at the Xiangshan campus of the university in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. Many buildings on the campus are his original creations.

The style of the campus is quite different from that of most Chinese universities. Many visitors were amazed by the complex architectural space and abundant building types. The curves of the buildings perfectly match the rise and fall of hills, forming a unique view.

Wang collected more than 7 million abandoned bricks of different ages. He asked the workers to use traditional techniques to make the bricks into walls, roofs and corridors. This creation attracted a lot of attention thanks to its mixture of modern and traditional Chinese elements(元素）.

Wang's works show a deep understanding of modern architecture and a good knowledge of traditions. Through such a balance, he had created a new type of Chinese architecture, said Tadao Ando, the winner of the 1995 Pritzker Prize.

Wang believes traditions should not be sealed in glass boxes at museums. “That is only evidence that traditions once existed, ” he said.

“Many Chinese people have a misunderstanding of traditions. They think tradition means old things from the past. In fact, tradition also refers to the things that have been developing and that are still being created, “he said.

“Today, many Chinese people are learning Western styles and theories rather than focusing on Chinese traditions. Many people tend to talk about traditions without knowing what they really are,” said Wang.

The study of traditions should be combined, with practice. Otherwise, the recreation of traditions would be artificial and empty, he said.

Have you ever seen a hitchhiker (搭便车的旅行者）standing by the side of a road? Now drivers in Canada might see an u     51    hitchhiker a hitchhiking robot.

One of its inventors, David Harris Smith, has hitched across Canada three times. Smith and a friend. Frauke Zeller, have built Hitchbot because they wanted to see if people would stop and give the robot a l     52    and talk to it. The robot can c       53    about things it has learned , and about its trip.       You might think it’s a joke, but Smith and Zeller’s experiment has a serious p     54    , can robots and people get along?

Hitchbot began its journey in Nova Scotia in July. It has already c     55    a third of its 6,000-mile   trip to Victoria. More than 57,000 people are following its journey c       56    on Facebook and Twitter,and travelers have p     57    lots of photos on the websites. Hitchbot has also done some shopping, eaten motor oil, and had fun with travelers. Nobody knows when it will finish its j     58    . It might be l     59    than expected, but Zeller and Smith want Hitchbot to get as many rides as it can . It hasn’t     been in a self-driving car yet, but anything is p       60    !

Sincerely yours, David
