standing tall and firm in the East， he announced.China holds grand celebrations every 10 years to celebrate the founding of the country.But this year's parade topped those in the past.Behind the celebrations is the great progress China has made.When the country was founded，it was poor，but now China has the world's third largest economy.China has more Internet and mobile phone users than anywhere else and is the world's largest car market.Almost all Chinese families have at least one television and，in the cities，a washing machinerare things 30 years ago.Some 15 million families own

celebration，and at a time when the world economy is slowing down.The parade showed me how powerful my country is and it makes me feel proud of it， said Jia Yanxin,16，from Beijing Yuying High School.Despite the pride，China still has a lot of progress to make：although it has the third largest economy in the world，the average urban income(15,781yuan in ) is still low.Also，there is a widening gap between rich and poor and environmental problems.However，the celebration was not just a showcase(展示)of the country's success.It was not just a parade.It was the Chinese people's march into their own future，as China Daily said.“China has grown from a baby to a grown­up with responsibilities.I believe it will go much further over the next 10 years， said Gong Chen,16，from Beijing No.8 High School.1What's the passage mainly about?AThe grand celebration of China's 60th anniversary.BChina's future after the celebration.CThe greatest progress China has made over the last 30 years.DThe

storytelling.“It might seem strange that people still want to listen in age of watching television，but this is an unusual art form whose time has come again， said David Ambrose，director of Beyond the Border，an international storytelling festival(节) in Wales.“Some of the tales，like those the Inuit from Canada，are thousands years old.So our storytellers have come from distant lands to connect us with the distance of time， he said early this month.Two Inuit women，both in their mid­60s，are among the few remaining who can do Kntadjait，or throat singing，which has few words and much sound.Their art is governed by the cold of their surroundings，forcing them to say little but listen attentively.Ambrose started the festival in 1993，after several years of working with those reviving (coming back into use or existence) storytelling in Wales.“It came out of a group of people who wanted to reconnect with traditions and as all the Welsh are storytellers，it was in_good_hands here.Ambrose
