Scotland - Everything I've Ever Had

0003: Six More Facts About Scotland

孔融小时候，不仅学习勤奋，而且善于思考。父亲外出拜客总是带着他去。10岁那年，他随父亲来到洛阳。正逢洛阳太守李膺大府内走。这时守门人忙把拉，问道：“你是哪家小孩，到一边玩去!”

孔融严肃地回答说：“请你们进去通报，山东孔融来访。”守门人见他一本正经，也不知是什么来头?笑着问：“小公子，可有红贴?”孔融说：“我家和你家主人世代交往，又有师生之谊，无需红贴，只管通报。”守门人怕慢待贵客，只好进去通报。这时李膺正和许多文人雅士交谈，听了通报，一时想不起这位孔融和自己家庭是什么关系，只好哈哈：“请进!”

小孔融兴冲冲走进大厅，一边向主人问候，一边拱手招呼各位来宾，态度不亢不卑。李膺一边让座，一边打量着这位俊才少年，心里好生奇怪：这小孩从未见过面，而他为何自称通家呢?于是，李膺问道：“小公子，你说我们两家世代交情，我怎么想不起来啊!”孔融微笑着说：“500年前孔子曾经问礼于老子，孔子姓孔，老子姓李，说明孔、李两家500年就有师生之谊。今你姓李，我姓孔，也是师生关系，我们两家不是累世通家吗!”

孔融语出惊人，在座客人无不暗暗称奇。太守李膺不禁哈哈大笑起来：“小公子真神童也。”唯有太中大夫陈韪不以为然，冷冷地说：“小时候聪明的人，长大后未必有作为。”面对挑战，孔融笑着说：“这样说来，先生小时候一定很聪明。”这一巧妙对答，弄得陈韪面红耳赤无言回对，暗暗坐在一旁生气。孔融则目不斜视，装着大人模样，一本正经地喝着茶，引得众人哈哈大笑。

Yuli's Chinese Channel

中国年轻人喜欢玩什么？（Intermediate level）

Passengers flying on some routes could have to spend almost $80 more to help European airlines pay for sustainable fuels.

According to European Union (EU) rules, airlines will have to use more sustainable fuel starting in January. Two percent of the fuel they use will have to be sustainable in 2025, but that will increase to 6% in 2030 and 70% in 2050.

This is part of the EU's plan to reduce carbon emissions, with the airline industry said to produce 2% of the world's carbon emissions.

However, sustainable fuels are much more expensive than normal jet fuel, and German airline Lufthansa has announced that travelers will have to pay more for flights leaving on or after January 1, 2025.

Lufthansa said it spends billions every year on new technologies, and has been working to help make flying more sustainable. It added that it has also supported research into global weather and climate, but that it can't pay for sustainable fuels without help from customers.

Passengers will have to pay extra on any flight leaving from any EU country, as well as from Norway, Switzerland and the UK.

Any flights booked for 2025 from now on will include the extra cost, and customers flying on any Lufthansa-operated airline will have to pay. The Lufthansa group also operates Eurowings, Austrian Airlines, Swiss Air, Brussels Airlines and Lufthansa City Airlines.

People taking short-haul flights in economy class may only need to pay about $5 more, according to Reuters, while those flying long-haul in first class could pay almost $80.

Many other airlines have said they won't be increasing prices, but they want governments to do more to help them.
