33、 food couldnt stand for a country by itself.

The mascot need
34、ed to be creative. Cao first decided that it should be a baby panda instead of a grown-up one.

Based on this code, a complete code system came into being later. The system was used by many companies from 1973
39、.

40、ers to read. It has turned out to be a really great invention.What information does a barcode carry? Where the product comes from, its price, production date you name it. It can also help stores always know about their products. For example, if there are 10 boxes of milk and a customer buys one, it
41、will be recorded so that the store owner knows there are nine boxes left on the shelf. In the 1980s, libraries started using barcodes to follow their books in this way.Inspired (启发) by it, the more developed codes have been invented later, such as QR codes.

Now, some new marine scientists have come of age. One of them is Cousteaus grandson Fabien Cousteau. He grew up on his grandfathers ships.
