根据短文理解,完成下列任务。

        Dragons are not real animals, but look like a combination (组合体) of many animals such as snakes, fish and deer. They have two horns (角) and a long moustache (胡子). With fantastic powers, they fly in the sky or swim in the sea. They can make rain, too. The Chinese dragon is a symbol of strength and good luck. The emperors of ancient China loved dragons. Their clothes were covered with pictures of dragons.

       We are proud to call ourselves the “descendants (传人) of the dragon”. In Chinese, “excellent” people are often called “dragon”. A number of Chinese sayings and idioms talk about dragons, for example, “Hoping one's child will become a dragon,” which means he or she will be successful.

        It is said that people born in the Year of the Dragon have certain characteristics. They are creative, confident, brave and quick-tempered. There are some famous “dragons” who have done excellent things, for example, Deng Xiaoping, the famous businessman Li Jiacheng and the movie star Zhao Wei. They are all successful. There are also some traditional festivals about dragons in China, such as Dragon Head-Raising Day and the Dragon Boat Festival. We have different kinds of activities to celebrate them. These two festivals come every year, but the Year of the Dragon comes every twelve years.

       The dragon is very important in Chinese culture. As the “descendants of the dragon”, it is necessary for us to know the views on dragons in our culture. It can help us understand why our parents always want us to be “dragons”.

Many traditional woodcut prints(版画) are either black and white or simple in color, but reduction woodcut prints(绝版木刻) can show rich colors like Western oil paintings.

The reduction woodcut is a kind of woodcut that uses one piece of wood to make a colorful artwork. The artist cuts and prints different layers(层) in order on the same piece of wood. Famous for its colors , the reduction woodcut was listed as an intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产) in Pu'er, Yunnan, in 2009.

Leng Guangmian is a reduction woodcut artist, and he started learning the art at university in 2003. He said that making reduction woodcut prints is just like an adventure."Every time we cut a pattern on the block(木块) and then print, we never know what it will be like in the

end." As he sees beautiful patterns layer by layer, he only gets more excited, added Leng.

But finishing such work is not easy. He said that he needs to plan for the whole print and choose colors for different layers before cutting. A big print usually takes months to finish.

Leng hopes his artwork can not only show excellent woodcutting skills but also local culture and life." For my works, there are two series: the Tea Horse Road(茶马古道), since Pu'er is one of the starting points of that road; and disappearing villages," Leng said. "Many old villages in Pu'er need rebuilding for sake of safety reasons, so I want to make people remember their beauty before they are gone."

Nowadays, we have kinds of technologies to protect us from different disasters(灾难). We even know where and when some disasters, like the typhoon, come. While most of the new technologies are far away from us, some around us can help people in disasters.

The drone(无人机)is one of them. It can be used to send food, water and other important things when a natural disaster happens. Very often the buildings are too dangerous for rescue teams to get in. They can make the drone fly into the buildings to search for those who are still alive first.

Social media is also a useful tool when it comes to natural disasters. With its help, people can know about the natural disasters before they hit. And some social media platforms allow people to mark themselves as safe after disasters so others can know their status.

 Social media is also a place for up-to-the-minute news, so people can learn what is going on in the disaster areas. Besides, many social media platforms allow people to donate money to help people in disaster areas. The money will help them get back to their normal life as soon as possible. For example, livestreaming(直播)helped raise a lot of money for Henan after the flood in 2021.

Although these technologies can help when there is a natural disaster, we still need to prepare necessary tools and learn important skills to protect ourselves.
