小王的旅行故事

这里是one minute Chinese, 中文一分钟，每天都不同！我们一起听一分钟，想一分钟，说一分钟，今天的话题是好事还是坏事？
很久以前，有个老人叫塞翁。他住在长城外面。有一天，塞翁养（yang3, raise）的马(ma3, horse)跑了。他的邻居(lin2ju,neighbour)们都为他感到(gan3dao4,feel)难过(nan2guo4,sad)。
“也许(ye3xu3,maybe)这会是件好事呢！”塞翁却这么说。
几个月后，塞翁的马自己跑回了家，还带了一匹好马回来。人们都很羡慕(xian4mu4, envy)他，和他说，你太幸运(xing4yun4,lucky)了。
塞翁却说：“也许这不是什么好事呢！”
没多久，塞翁的儿子就喜欢上了骑(qi2, to saddle)马，一天他从马上掉了下来，摔断(shuai1duan4, to break by falling)了腿。邻居们都替(ti4, stand in for)塞翁难过。
“也许这会是件好事呢！”塞翁却说。
一年后，战争(zhan4zheng1, warfare)爆发(bao4fa1, break out)了，年青人都必须参军(can1jun1,join the army)去打仗(da3zhang4, to fight)。死了很多人。塞翁的儿子却因为摔断了腿不能去当兵(dang1bin1,be a soldier)，而保住了性命(xing4ming4,life)。
这个故事说的就是一句很有名的中国成语(cheng2yu4,pharse)：塞翁失马，焉知非福(sai1weng1shi1ma3, yan1zhi1fei1fu2, the old man lost his mare, but it all turned out for the best)：意思是塞翁丢失了马，这有可能是一件幸运的事。在日常生活里，我们可以这样说，虽然你失去了之前的工作，但是你找到了一份更好的工作，这可真是塞翁失马呀。你有相同的经历吗，欢迎来和我分享。


One minute Chinese

Bad thing, or good thing? 中国成语-塞翁失马

Disneyland Paris has launched a new light show called Disney Tales of Magic, an immersive 20-minute show that uses drones, synchronized fountains, and high-definition projections.

The show's main feature — ultra-bright lasers — has been used only once before, at the Paris 2024 Olympics at the Eiffel Tower during the opening ceremony featuring a performance by Celine Dion. The lasers, which travel 37 kilometers, deliver extraordinary power while remaining safe near crowds.

"The Paris Olympics used it first. But we saw it first," said Dana Harrel, executive entertainment director at Disneyland Paris.

The show brings Disney and Pixar tales to life with the use of drone-made 3D figures projected onto the night sky, synchronized fountains and a 100-piece orchestra.

The show also reflects Disney's storytelling evolution. Tim Lutkin, artistic director of the production, noted the shift from classic fairy tales to modern narratives like Encanto and Inside Out 2, which explore deeper themes such as anxiety and depression.

The show is just one part of Disneyland Paris' $2 billion expansion plan, part of a $60 billion global investment announced in September 2023, aiming to redefine Disney parks, cruises and attractions over the next decade.

At the heart of the expansion is the transformation of Walt Disney Studios Park, doubling in size and reimagined as Disney Adventure World. Opening in spring 2025, a new park entrance, World Premiere, will greet visitors with the glamor of a Hollywood film premiere, leading them into immersive themed areas.

The expansion includes two eagerly awaited themed lands: The World of Frozen, opening in 2026, and The Lion King land. The Disneyland Hotel has also been revamped, with rooms themed around classic Disney royalty.

"These projects reflect our commitment to innovation and storytelling," said Natacha Rafalski, head of Disneyland Paris, adding that they will further strengthen it as Europe's top tourist destination.
