Months ago, a new kind of transportation came out. A company called Sky Drive gave a demonstration (示范) of its new flying, the SD-03. The small car 1 around for four minutes, staying about three to six feet 2 the ground. The SD-03 is powered by batteries (电池) and has eight motors (发动机).

What made this test flight 3 was that a pilot was on board. Tomohiro Fukuzawa, who leads Sky Drive, said, "Of the world's more than 100 flying car projects, only a few of them have 4 with a person on board."

Many 5 around the world are working to develop flying cars. Some governments, including Japan's, 6 the idea, hoping that in the future flying cars will be 7 for short trips like taxi rides in cities. Flying cars could also save 8 and reach places that can't be reached by roads. 9 is easy! There are also many challenges in the way. Con-trolling a flying car is 10 difficult that most people won't be able to do it. Some people 11 flying cars will reduce (减少) traffic jams (阻塞). 12 , new systems will be needed to help control traffic in the air. With lots of 13 flying around, the new systems may be too 14 for humans to manage. Also, flying cars will be very expensive.

The Double Third Festival, also ancient Shangsi Festival is an ancient Chinese festival. It comes on the third day of the third lunar month, so It's not on the same day every year. The day is said to be the birthday of Yellow Emperor (Huangdi). It didn't have a fixed date until the Wei and Jin dynasties(朝代).

In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, people often bath in the river on that day to wash away bad luck. Wang Xizhi wrote in his Lantingji Xu- about how people took a bath and wrote poems while drinking. In the Tang Dynasty, people enjoyed drinks and sightseeing. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, people did activities like throwing stones, going for long walks in the country and listening to music.

In modern times, people in the southern parts of China mainly celebrate the festival. For the Zhuang people in Guangxi, they can enjoy a two or three- day holiday. And it is a festival for young people to sing songs and find their true love. Bamboo dancing is another important actıvıty for them. For the Li and Miao people in Hainan, it is a day for remembering ancestors (祖先). For the Han people, it is a time to go outside to enjoy flowers and cook eggs with jicai. The Han people believe the wild vegetable and the special eggs are of great benefit to human health. In some areas, there are dragon boat races and other cultural performances to celebrate this lucky day.

All in all, the Double Third Festival is a time for people to feel nature, share traditions, and celebrate the arrival of spring with joy.
