A crow lived in a thick forest filled with many birds. The crow was very
happy with carefree life until he saw a swan one day. The swan was flying over a
lake. “This swan is so white,” he thought, “and I am so black. It must be the
happiest bird in the world.”
He shared his thoughts with the swan. “Actually,” the swan replied, “I thought
so, too, until I met a parrot. It had brilliant colours of red and blue. No other
bird could be happier than the parrot.”
The crow went off in search of the parrot and found it resting on the top of
an old tree. The parrot explained, “I, too, was very happy until I chanced upon
a peacock. My colours paled in comparison to the peacock’s. Its rich colours put
my coat to shame.”
Curiosity defeated the crow, who was determined to look for the beautiful peacock.
He finally found the peacock at the zoo. Hundreds of people gathered around to watch
the peacock and its beautiful feathers. After the crowd had left, the crow rested
itself on a rock and said, “Dear peacock, you are so beautiful. Every day, people
come just to see you. People either drive me away or avoid me when they see me. You
must be the happiest bird on the planet.”
The peacock replied, “My beauty has forced me to be kept in this zoo. In the
first few months I spent here, I often thought to myself that if I were a crow, I
could be enjoying a carefree life outside. Then, after many months of struggling,
I have come to realize that I need to learn to be happy with what I have instead
of expecting what I do not have. I am happy because I am satisfied with my life here.”

Over the past few years, cars have become smarter and smarter. Some of them

Kingdom alone, there are around 650 kilometers of “smart roads” in use. Across
the world, many more are being built. Some new technologies are being put to use.
Roads that recharge(充电)

roads? With the right technologies, cars around the world could be producing energy
as they go. Piezoelectricity ads mix traditional asphalt(柏油)with new material.

Have you heard of the word “hygge? It’s a Danish(丹麦的)word as well
as a Danish lifestyle. There is no English word for the exact meaning of “hygge”,
according to Oxford Dictionaries. It might be translated to coziness(惬意)in English,
but it is more than that.

making real tea in china cups—that’s hygge too. There’s nothing more hygge than

things in life. (A)This lifestyle focuses on the idea of making simple daily
activities special or meaningful.
(B)is, winter, a, Danish, for, people, hygge, the, fighting, way, of, cold. But
it doesn’t have to be the only thing to do in the cold season. In Denmark, there
can be up to 17 hours of darkness per day in winter, and the average temperature
is around 0℃. As a result, people spend plenty of time indoors and focus on home
entertaining.
Now the idea of hygee is travelling abroad and becoming a trend in some parts
of the world too. In the UK and the US, there are more and more hygge-themed cookbooks
and lifestyle guides, as well as Danish restaurants, cafes and bars. “The rest of
the world seems to be slowly waking up to what Danes have been wise to for ages.”
