Good morning, welcome
to Newsround HQ! | 0:00:04 | 0:00:06 | |
I'm Ayshah. | 0:00:06 | 0:00:07 | |
Coming your way this Tuesday... | 0:00:07 | 0:00:09 | |
Another medal for Great Britain
at the Paralympics. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:13 | |
We're staying cool this morning
with the tourists capturing this | 0:00:13 | 0:00:15 | |
ice sight in Argentina. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
And find out why a cat could hold
the key to this year's World Cup. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:22 | |
Only on Newsround. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:29 | |
First, let's get the latest
sports results for you. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:36 | |
Manchester City are just two
games away from winning | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
the Premier League after they beat
Stoke 2-0 last night. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
David Silva scored
just 10 minutes in. | 0:00:41 | 0:00:46 | |
He then went on to score his second
goal of the game and ninth | 0:00:46 | 0:00:49 | |
of the season in the second half. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:51 | |
The win means they can still take
the title against rivals | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
Manchester United next month. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
And there's been a silver
medal for Great Britain | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
at the Paralympics in South Korea. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
British skier Menna Fitzpatrick -
who is partially sighted - | 0:01:01 | 0:01:04 | |
and her guide, Jen Kehoe,
took second place in | 0:01:04 | 0:01:06 | |
the Super Combined event. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:10 | |
And in tennis, world number one
Roger Federer is favourite to win | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
a record sixth title
at Indian Wells. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:17 | |
He won his last match in less
than an hour to reach the last 16. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
Novak Djokovic is already out. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:21 | |
Andy Murray and
Rafa Nadal are both injured. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:25 | |
In the women's, Venus has beaten
Serena in the latest | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
Williams sisters showdown. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:28 | |
Venus won in straight sets. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:34 | |
Over in Argentina, thousands
of tourists gathered to watch this | 0:01:34 | 0:01:36 | |
extraordinary moment. | 0:01:36 | 0:01:37 | |
It's an ice bridge collapsing
in a national park in | 0:01:37 | 0:01:39 | |
the South American country. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
It happens every couple of years
when water pressure builds up | 0:01:41 | 0:01:43 | |
under the ice, making it weak. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:51 | |
The last time it
happened was in 2016. | 0:01:55 | 0:02:01 | |
OK, history fans,
stick around for this - | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
we're heading to Liverpool
to see an ancient underground army, | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
kept hidden for thousands of years. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
Martin's got this. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:13 | |
This is the Terracotta Army. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:17 | |
It was buried deep underground
secretly guarding the tomb | 0:02:17 | 0:02:19 | |
of China's first emperor for more
than 2,000 years, | 0:02:19 | 0:02:22 | |
until it was discovered by accident
as farmers dug the land. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:28 | |
The tomb belonged to Qin Shi Huang,
the founder of the Chinese empire, | 0:02:28 | 0:02:31 | |
who had many enemies. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:35 | |
He believed that these full-size
clay soldiers would protect him | 0:02:35 | 0:02:38 | |
in the next life after he died. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
Now, they've been carefully brought
back to the surface and repaired | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
for everyone to see. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:45 | |
But you don't have to go all the way
to China to see them. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:49 | |
Some of them are right
here in Liverpool. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:52 | |
So these kids have been
to check them out. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:54 | |
How long did it take to make
the terracotta warriors? | 0:02:54 | 0:03:00 | |
We do not know how long it took
to make one warrior, but as you | 0:03:00 | 0:03:04 | |
can see, they are so detailed
and elaborate, I imagine | 0:03:04 | 0:03:06 | |
it would have taken quite some time
to make each one. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:09 | |
Each part of the body
was made separately, | 0:03:09 | 0:03:11 | |
so the legs and feet were made,
and they were solid clay. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
Because they were so heavy, the base
of them had to be quite steady. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
Who were the strongest warriors? | 0:03:17 | 0:03:19 | |
The warriors are all soldiers
who were ready to fight in battle, | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
but in another pit nearby
were figures that the emperor had | 0:03:22 | 0:03:26 | |
made to entertain him
in the afterlife, and in that pit | 0:03:26 | 0:03:29 | |
were acrobats and strongmen,
and the strongmen figures | 0:03:29 | 0:03:31 | |
had really big muscles,
so I imagine they were | 0:03:31 | 0:03:33 | |
meant to be very strong. | 0:03:33 | 0:03:37 | |
So, what do they make of the army? | 0:03:37 | 0:03:40 | |
I'm so amazed how big
the terracotta warriors are. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
I like how they look
and they've got armour on, | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
they look really detailed. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:48 | |
When I imagined what they would look
like, I was not expecting them | 0:03:48 | 0:03:51 | |
to be a really big size. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:53 | |
I think it's actually really
impressive that they came from China | 0:03:53 | 0:03:55 | |
all the way to Liverpool
and that they are still in really | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
good shape and condition. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:06 | |
Thanks guys, now from hidden
armys to this super fun | 0:04:06 | 0:04:09 | |
wintry competition. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:10 | |
And it's a wee bit different
than you might think... | 0:04:10 | 0:04:13 | |
Boys and girls, we're
in Krynica Zdroj in southern | 0:04:13 | 0:04:16 | |
Poland for Ski Splash! | 0:04:16 | 0:04:19 | |
Ski Splash is an event that takes
place in this town every year. | 0:04:19 | 0:04:23 | |
And as you can see,
it's a real hoot. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:26 | |
50 participants attempted to ski
or snowboard across a pool of very, | 0:04:26 | 0:04:29 | |
very cold water after riding
off a slope. | 0:04:29 | 0:04:34 | |
Wait a minute, that's a boat! | 0:04:34 | 0:04:39 | |
It combines some good
old sense of humour with fun | 0:04:39 | 0:04:41 | |
and sports competition. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:48 | |
The best part about it for me is,
the competitors dress up | 0:04:48 | 0:04:51 | |
in anything they like. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:52 | |
Not because it gets them points. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:54 | |
But simply because they can. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:55 | |
I know what my next hobby is! | 0:04:55 | 0:04:58 | |
You may remember Fiona the Hippo
who correctly guessed | 0:04:58 | 0:05:06 | |
the winners of the Super Bowl -
the American football competition - | 0:05:06 | 0:05:08 | |
earlier this year? | 0:05:08 | 0:05:09 | |
Well, now Russia has named a cat
as its official fortune-teller | 0:05:09 | 0:05:12 | |
for this summer's World Cup. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:13 | |
Achilles - yep, that's his name -
will have two bowls of food | 0:05:13 | 0:05:16 | |
representing either side. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:17 | |
Whichever he eats first will be his
favourite to win the game. | 0:05:17 | 0:05:22 | |
If you've got time before you head
to school, take a look at this | 0:05:22 | 0:05:26 | |
amazing dog at Newsround online -
where you can see why he stole | 0:05:26 | 0:05:30 | |
the show at Crufts over the weekend. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:34 | |
Plus, Kane tells us what life
is like with his adopted parents - | 0:05:34 | 0:05:38 | |
and how his brother is also adopted. | 0:05:38 | 0:05:39 | |
And this week's Big Question
is all about space. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:41 | |
Just how big is it? | 0:05:41 | 0:05:46 | |
We find out from a galaxy expert! | 0:05:46 | 0:05:47 | |
That's all for now
from the Newsround team. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:51 | |
Hayley's here for you
