     At the World Expo Shanghai 2010, you will be able to see the world in just one day.
     The World Expo (short for "exposition") is the third largest world event after the Olympics and the FIFA
World Cup. Countries build pavilions (展示館) at the Expo, showing off technologies and cultures with
colorful exhibitions and performances.
     People can experience the most advanced technologies at the World Expo. Throughout history, many new
inventions have made their debuts (樣品) at the World Expo, including the TV, telephone and even the ice
cream cone.
     But the Expo is not just a trade fair (商品交易會). It's a platform (平臺) for cultural exchange, bringing
people closer to the rest of the world.
     For example, at the Shanghai Expo, couples may be able to marry in French-style weddings at the France
Pavilion. Thailand will let visitors walk into its emperor's palace. Visitors to the Austria Pavilion will have the
chance to experience the snow-capped mountains of the country.
     Many countries have also decided to bring their national treasures to the event.
     Since the 1993 Expo in Chicago, the World Expo began to focus on one theme. It changed from a show
into a community event. Visitors are invited to help solve global issues, such as environmental problems.
     The theme of the Shanghai Expo is "Better city, better life". It will call on the world to solve the problems
human beings face as a result of urbanization (城市化). In the future, more and more people may care about
protecting the places they live in.
