Nature is one of the main sources of inspiration(灵感来源) for artists. We’ve seen many works of art that are about trees, but in South Africa, there is a special work of art that can amaze you --- a bar in a tree.
The bar, named Sunland Big Baobab, a hollow tree. The huge tree is the wildest baobab tree(猴面包树---非洲) on record, which is a type of tree normally found in hot,
Africa. The large tree, twenty two metres in and forty-seven metres in girth(周长), stands on Sunland Farm. More amazingly, the tree is
the oldest tree in the world --- it is about 6,000 years old!

Want an “OK” from your parents when you start to miss your favorite on-line game? It’s but possible now.
Last week, the China Youth Internet Association said it would find more games for teens. It has made standards (标准) for computer games for kinds of age groups. These standards are the first in China.
“We hope the standards can tell students games they can play,” said Shao Dehai, head of the association. “Students can keep away from bad games.”
Which games are OK? Many people made the standards. They were for grown-ups. It’s better for makers to use stories from history and geography in their games. This makes
more fun.
Junior games have rules for players as well. If you use bad words too many times, you may be from playing the game.
You can’t spend too much time on games. The computer will stop the game when your time is up. Great, right? Your mum may even be than you.
These standards aren’t ready yet. The association is asking for ideas all game-lovers. Want to know more about the standards? Go to www.game315.com/yxfj. At this website you can also tell
how you feel about some games. If you have some good ideas for the standards, you can write to: game@swm.com.cn.
