Are you crazy about the World Cup? It’s the most popular sports event in the world. Qatar（卡塔尔）was the host of the 22nd World Cup. Let me tell you something about “Made In China” in the 22nd World Cup.

Lusail Stadium（卢塞尔体育馆）is Qatar’s biggest stadium to hold the World Cup final. It was designed and built by Chinese group. It cost $770 million. There are 80, 000 seats in the stadium. Football fans enjoyed the games in this fantastic stadium. It was built with energy-saving technologies and environmental-friendly materials.

From footballs, national flags and trophy ornaments（奖杯摆件）to whistles（哨 子）, over 60 percent of souvenirs（纪 念 品）were produced in Yiwu for this years’ World Cup. They were very popular with football fans because of their good quality and design.

Pure electric buses made by China served as shuttle（穿 梭） buses in the Qatar World Cup. Qatar bought 1, 500 electric buses from China. During the game, people could see Chinese electric buses everywhere. They were busy transporting officials, tourists, and reporters of different countries around the country.

Among the many things that Brisbane (布里斯班), Australia, does really well is the care for kids. Here’s a list of places that we think will be suitable for your kids.

Swimming pools

Simple way for happiness: mix kids with water. Of course, this is a choice for the hot summer months.

Entertainment Parks

Free outdoor fun — that’s what Brisbane’s parks offer kids of all ages. Parks encourage imagination and activity for little people and a place for parents to let them run wild.

The Children’s Art Centre

The Children’s Art Centre has proven very popular with their programs and exhibitions. We love the artist-run workshops and performances (unusually you must pay some money) specially designed for children too.

South Bank Parklands

South Bank Parklands has everything you need to keep little ones amused. Take them for a swim at the man-made beach, play on one of the playgrounds by the river. On weekends, go through the arts market or go to a cheap movie at the South Bank cinema. South Bank Parklands often hosts free events and performances too.

Roma Street Parkland

Close to bus transport, this inner city parkland is easily accessible (可进入的) and ideal for kids of all ages. Younger kids can take a trip on the Jelly Bean Express, a 1.3 km trackless train ride around the parkland or there’s a playground to explore. Free entry and open daily.

Skating and climbing

We love the places that let the kids expend all that youthful energy. Take them roller skating or ice skating. Or try rock climbing at a variety of indoor and outdoor places around Brisbane.

New York City isn't the biggest city in the world, but it is the biggest city in the USA. Most Americans live in much smaller cities and towns, but almost 8 million people live in New York. Why did so many people come to live in one place?

A look at the city shows us that New York City has a very good port(商埠). The Dutch(荷兰) settlers (new comers) wanted to use it for business. In 1626, the Dutch paid(付钱) the Indians twenty-four dollars for the island of Manhattan. Its Dutch name was New Amsterdam. Then the British took the land in 1664 and changed its name to New York.

The United States became an independent(独立的) country in 1783, and New York was its capital for a short time. The city became so crowded that some people moved out to other areas (places). But more people from everywhere went on coming into the city every day.
