　 Saturation diving allows divers to work for days underwater, finish the job and decompress(减压) only once.This way, it is cost－effective(划算的) to work underwater.Next, China plans to carry out a 500－meter underwater saturation diving experiment in a real undersea environment.

China's new high－speed maglev train(磁悬浮列车) started on July 20th, 2021.It can run at a top speed of 600 kilometers per hour.It is one of the fastest maglev trains in the world.
An expert said the maglev train would be the best choice for trips within 1，500 km.For example, a trip from Beijing to Shanghai (about 1，200 km) takes about 2 hours by plane, 5.5 hours by high－speed train, and only 2.5 hours by maglev train.The plane takes a shorter travel time, but it needs more preparation time.
Many cities in China don't have maglev tracks(轨道).Don't worry.China plans to build a few new maglev tracks.So the maglev train is sure to make travel easier and faster in the future.

Also, more and more people choose to buy products made in China like Huawei phones.Because they have good qualities and are convenient to use.In fact, Chinese brands have won the hearts of people both at home and abroad.
As teenagers, we are the future of our country.Therefore, we should study hard and try our best to make China better and better.
