19、nd lucky clouds, traditional elements in the Oriental culture. Brooks considers it a good start. We are doing a lot of similar programs, and in the next 570 days or so, as we count down to the Games, you will see more examples with strong Oriental spirit and identity.He certainly has a sense of hist

20、ory. The Olympic spirit, which is an ancient spirit from over 2,000 years ago, is alive.

Then it turns away from the shore and heads out to sea, leaving the swimmers untouched.Such a scene will soon become common along shark-in-fasted (鲨

25、鱼成群的) shores. An electrical engineer from the University of Pretoria has developed an electrical system that repels (击退) sharks by controlling their movements. Confused by this action, the sharks end up turning away from the beach.In this unusual shark-repellent method, an insulated (绝缘的) cable is b

26、uried on the bottom of the sea around a beach where people swim.

27、uces a reflex (反射作用) action in the shark s muscles, causing the dangerous animal to swim parallel to the cable. Confused by increasing loss of control of its muscles, the shark suddenly changes its direction and heads seaward, away from the electric field.In a test of the invisible new shark-repelle
