Green Bank is a small town in the US. People there live a special life.

Green Bank is home to a large radio telescope（射电望远镜）. It is used to study space.Radio waves （无线电波） from the ground can influence the work of the telescope. For this reason, people there can’t use smart phones or Wi-Fi. They can only use a pay phone when they need to make phone calls.

There are about 180 people living in Green Bank. Many of them don’t find life difficult. A boy says he likes going to his friends’ houses to talk to them.

This gives her the chance to shake their hands or give them a hug. She really enjoys living without smart phones and Wi-Fi.

No Wi-Fi doesn’t mean Green Bank is not a good place to visit. Feeling the beauty of face-to-face human connection in the town is special. There’re also some places to enjoy.

For those who are interested in science, the Green Bank Observatory is a must-see. But don’t forget to bring a map, because GPS doesn’t work in the area. Don’t worry about food. The observatory has a mini coffee house.

Like China, many other countries see spring’s coming as a sign of blessing and happiness. Some of them share similar cultural traditions in greeting the spring, while others have their own ways.

Similar to Chinese culture, in South Korea, people also greet the spring by paying a lot of attention to preparing a large meal.

It is held during February and March every year to celebrate a good harvest. Indian people celebrate spring at the festival by dancing and singing. People will paint their faces and bodies and throw colored water and powder on others to show their blessings.

Russians celebrate the festival that called Maslenitsa in springtime. The festival is celebrated around the end of February or early March each year. People will bake round pancakes into golden yellow to appreciate the sun, and in the dark night, people will light fires for celebrations.

In the US, there is a special “sock-burning”event held in Maryland to celebrate the spring’s coming. The tradition of burning socks began in the 20th century. People bum socks there to show that they can wear shoes barefoot（赤脚地）when the weather warms up. It’s a hope to have the winter end soon and the spring come early.
