At the end of the program, I would like to tell you a little about this rubber duck: The Creator of the Giant Rubber Duck, Hoffman, Tried to Entertain the World by a Tour Named "Spreading Joy Around the World" Established in 2007.
Hoffman's original intention to design this giant "rubber duck" began with his trip in 2007 with the theme of "transmitting happiness to every corner of the world".
He aiming to recall everyone's childhood memories by exhibiting the duck in14 cities, starting in his own Amsterdam, Netherlands. Starting from Amsterdam, he hopes to arouse people's memories of childhood by showing this "duckling" in different cities.
Research shows that 60 years ago, we laughed for 18 minutes every day, but today, this number has dropped to 6 minutes. Is it because of the pressure of life that our sense of happiness is not as strong as before? Netizens ridiculed that rubber duck fell because the bird flu was too strong; Work overtime for more than ten days, and suddenly died; Others joked that being a lonely stranger in a strange land, this rubber duck was depressed into a disease. Anyway,we should be more optimistic towards life. And this is Coco Oral English Classroom,w e'll see you next time, bye bye!
