Shang Yang was a politician of the Qin state. He was very wise and forward-thinking(有遠見的). He worked out several reform plans for the state, including focusing on farming and giving rewards(獎賞) to soldiers who were successful during war.

But at the beginning, these reforms were not easily carried out. Only a few people in the state understood Shang's talent and the advantages of his plans. Most people had little trust and confidence in him.

To solve this problem, Shang came up with an idea. He ordered some soldiers to put a thin wooden pole at the south gate of the Qin state capital. This attracted many people. Then, in front of the crowd, he said loudly: "People of Qin, whoever takes this pole to the north gate will get a reward of 10 gold pieces."

It was a simple task and the reward was big. Some time passed and no one stepped forward. They all thought that Shang was joking. Hearing no answer, Shang stepped forward and said, "I will increase the reward to 50 gold pieces."

The words sounded even more unbelievable. Finally, a man from the crowd came forward to take the pole. He put the pole on his shoulders and walked to the north gate. True to his word, Shang paid the man 50 gold pieces.

Soon, the people were saying that Shang was a man of his word. When he began promoting(推行) his reforms, the people followed and did not question him.

If you want to travel from Xi'an to Chengdu by train, it will take about 16 hours. But starting this month, the new Xi'an-Chengdu high-speed railway will shorten this travel time to three hours.

The 643-kilometer line is China's first high-speed railway to run through the Qinling

Mountains, which form a natural boundary(分界線) between China's north and south. With a speed of 250 km per hour, it's also the first mountain-heavy train line to provide a 4G network.

Along the way, the train passes through two areas for rare(稀有) wild animals — one for pandas and the other for crested ibises(朱鹮).

To reduce the railway's influence on the animals, workers and experts have designed and built the railway to be environmentally friendly, China Daily reported.

In September, there were 345 wild pandas living in the Qinling Mountains. China now has l,864 wild pandas in total, according to the Xinhua News Agency.

To avoid disturbing the pandas, the railway was designed to run through tunnels(隧道)

within the area. Protective shields(防護屏) are placed near the entrance of each tunnel to stop animals from going in.

To avoid hurting the thousands of crested ibises that fly near one part of the railway, protective nets have been set up along the tracks to make sure the birds will not fly into a train.

The nets are about 32 km long and 4 meters high. Experts tested different shapes and materials for building the nets before making their final choice.(A report in December, 2017)
