Yang Jiang on reading: Don’t lose heart when you are frustrated, and don’t forget your shape when you are proud.

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, May 25th. In the early morning of May 25th, 105-year-old Mr. Yang Jiang left.

  Mr. Yang Jiang was indifferent to fame and fortune, honest and honest all his life, just as she commented on the author of her translation Jill Brass: "He was arrogant and refused to cater to the atmosphere and attach himself to the nobles. He dares to attack the current abuses and is not afraid of offending the power. He doesn’t seek fame, and he only makes a living by writing all his life. "

  On being a man: strive to be an honest and sincere person who does not flatter, bully and abide by the principle of loyalty and forgiveness.

  Mr. Yang Jiang was born in Beijing on July 17, 1911, named Yang Jikang, the fourth daughter in his family. Her father, Mr. Yang Yinhang, served as the director of the Jiangsu Provincial High Court of Justice and the director of the Zhejiang Provincial High Court of Justice. His integrity and integrity had a great influence on the cultivation of her character. Yang Jiang once said: "In my life, I have been trying to be an honest and sincere person who does not flatter, bully and abide by the principle of loyalty and forgiveness." When I was in the second year of college, the teachers all thought that Yang Jiang had the conditions to study science. She asked her father for advice, and his father said, whatever you like best, you should study. She is not at ease: "I like literature, should I study literature?" Love reading novels and learning novels? " My father said that what I like is the closeness of sex, which is the most suitable for me. Under the guidance of her father, she finally chose her favorite liberal arts among liberal arts, regardless of the teacher’s regret and persuasion. After completing her studies, Yang Jiang devoted her life to creation and translation, which was also inseparable from her father’s influence, because his father said to her, "It is better to translate some valuable foreign works than to write empty articles." He also said: "Translation is promising."

  On reading: don’t lose heart when you are frustrated, and don’t forget your shape when you are proud.

  Mr. Yang Jiang loved literature since he was a child. If he didn’t read books for a week, he felt that "a week was in vain". Even when she was criticized for "reading for spiritual enjoyment" during the Cultural Revolution, she never let go of her books. Mr. Yang Jiang thinks that reading is like an "invisible" door-to-door: "If you want to see an admired teacher or visit a famous scholar, you don’t have to say hello in advance, just open the book and break into the door, and then turn over a few pages and enter the room; And you can always come and go, and if you can’t get to the point, you can leave without saying goodbye, or find another clever person to confront him. You can also listen to the anecdotes of the previous dynasties and learn the most mysterious innovative theories of the contemporary era. If the words are not speculative or unpleasant, you might as well pull yourself out or even slam the door, which means that no one will blame you if you close the book. Often in books ‘ Chuanmener ’ , you can get rich experience and meet all kinds of people at all times and places. Reading is like reading the world. Reading more can make you smarter and more mature. Even if you can’t be humiliated, you can learn to be frustrated. Don’t forget your shape. "

  Talking about creation: The stories created often surpass the author’s own experience in many ways.

  In her love of literature, Yang Jiang also started writing herself. Several of her short stories vividly outlined various characters, and the novel Bath even described the common "face" in the movement against the three evils. These works are full of wit and humor, but also permeated with insight into the world. However, Yang Jiang often said: "I am not a professional writer, but an amateur author. In my novels, all kinds of characters are bred in my mind, and the story is naturally composed of characters. " Readers often regard the plots of characters in Yang Jiang’s novels as true stories, but Yang Jiang thinks that an important component of creation is imagination. "Experience is like a fire lit in the dark, and imagination is the light emitted by this fire; Without fire, there is no light, but the light reaches far beyond the size of the fire. The stories created often surpass the author’s own experience in many ways. " Her husband, Qian Zhongshu, once urged her to write novels out of thin air.

  Some people have commented that Mr. Yang Jiang’s novels reflect the truth of life by dribs and drabs of personnel, and their brushwork is humorous and comic, which makes people think of Austin’s novels. After her dramas "Satisfied" and "Make True and Make False" created in the 1940s were put on the stage, they were also praised as "the two best comedies". These plays focus on petty-bourgeois youth to describe the world. They are good at joking without being sarcastic. Their humor is gentle and sincere. Moreover, what is hidden behind humor and ridicule is deep seriousness and sadness, which is reminiscent of several works she translated: Little lazarillo DE tormes, Jill Brass and Don Quixote. Just as her father asked her to study her "sex-similar" major, when she was engaged in translation, she also consciously or unconsciously chose her favorite works depicting little people with tears in their laughter.

  On translation: Being responsible for "foreign masters" is only for being loyal to domestic readers.

  Mr. Yang Jiang is a researcher at the Institute of Foreign Literature, China Academy of Social Sciences. Apart from writing academic papers, she spends the most time and is most praised for her highly translated works. She often said that translation is a chore, and a translator "has two masters" and has to serve two masters at the same time: "A foreign master is an original work, and every word of the original is required to be obeyed, and it is not allowed to disobey or perfunctory. The other master is the native readers of the translation. They not only want to see the original appearance, but also have to conform to their language habits. As a translator, I am right about ‘ Foreign master ’ Do your duty, just to be loyal to your readers. " For example, her translation of Little Lazarus on the Tomes River was originally called Little Lazarus, and the reason why she translated it into Little Lazarus was that she did her duty faithfully to her master and servant. In the Gospel of Luke in the New Testament, there is a leper named Lazarus. Later, this name refers to all lepers and beggars. At the same time, the lazarillo de tormes in Chinese refers not only to people with boils on their skin, but also to all rogue bachelors. The name "lazarillo de tormes" was used in the spoken language during the Tang and Five Dynasties, referring to rogues, as well as ruffian rogues in classical novels such as The Scholars and A Dream of Red Mansions, which are often called "Lazi" or "chili pepper".The name Lazarus also has the same meaning, so Yang Jiang skillfully translated the title into Little Lazarus.

  Mr. Yang Jiang’s early translation was encouraged by Mr. Fu Lei, and later Mr. Zhu Guangqian praised her translation. Mr. Dong Hengxun, an expert in American literature studies at the Institute of Foreign Languages, recalled that when he was studying at Peking University, he liked to go to Mr. Zhu Guangqian’s house with his classmates. As young students, they always like to ask strange questions, such as "Who is the best in English in China?" "Who is the best translator in China?" Mr. Zhu Guangqian replied that translation can be divided into three aspects: prose translation, poetry translation and theoretical translation. Yang Jiang is the best prose translator. However, Yang Jiang is very modest. She said that although her translation was praised by her predecessors, for example, Jill Brass, published by stages in the World Literature of the Foreign Languages Institute, was praised by the editor-in-chief Comrade Chen Bingyi, but she always felt that her translation was very poor. Once, she asked Qian Zhongshu to proofread it for her. Qian Zhongshu took a pencil and scratched her manuscript all over the paper, saying, "I don’t understand these." Yang Jiang said: "That’s what the book says." But Mr. Qian stressed: "I don’t understand." Yang Jiang understood that this was because she didn’t translate the original into understandable Chinese, so she continued to retranslate it until Mr. Qian nodded to show that she understood it. She also explored a higher translation level and said, "To talk about my translation skills,It’s all from these failed experiences. "

  After the death of Mr. Qian Zhongshu, Mr. Yang Jiang translated Plato’s Phaedo at the age of nearly 90. This article on Socrates’ discussion of "soul" with his disciples before his death entrusted her with her deepest grief. People who have read The Three of Us are all shocked by their deep love and affection. In this essay, Yang Jiang, who is witty and humorous, sadly recalls the life of her husband Qian Zhongshu and her beloved daughter yuan qian. Although they are all trivial things, people who have read it are all moved. After the death of her husband and daughter, Yang Jiang, who lives alone with her nanny, is still optimistic and strong, and her workload is amazing. While sorting out the words left by Mr. Qian, the Commercial Press published the Collection of Qian Zhongshu Manuscripts. While I’m still trying to create. Walking to the Edge of Life, published in 2007, explores human soul, personality, nature, the struggle and unity between spirit and flesh, fate and destiny, and human civilization, and asks itself about birth, illness and death. Later, the companion piece "Sitting on the Edge of Life" is to answer readers’ various questions at the age of 100. "I am one hundred years old this year, and I have reached the edge of my life. I can’t know exactly how far I can go. My life span is involuntary, but I know very well that I am fast ‘ Go home ’ Yes. I have to wash away the filth that has been contaminated for a hundred years and go home. "

After playing the glory of the king for 3 hours, the young man stabbed himself 13 times. What happened? !

The wound on Xiaojun’s wrist.

  The 21-year-old Xiaojun hurried through the breakfast cooked by his mother and returned to the game world of "the glory of the king" — — He has been playing for three hours. Mother Wang Li went out to buy food. After more than 10 minutes, she suddenly received a phone call from her son and only heard a sentence "Help me"! When my mother came home, the scene in front of her still haunted her: there was a big pool of blood on the living room floor, and the blood spread to the bedroom. Lying in bed and covered in blood, my son pointed to a fruit knife and told his mother, "I pricked my own … …”

  What happened?

  Stab yourself 13 times.

  The operation lasted for 5 hours.

  On the morning of the 6th, Xiaojun was lying on the hospital bed in the hand surgery ward of Xuzhou Renci Hospital, his eyes were wandering, but he would stay on the TV on the opposite wall from time to time, where an NBA basketball game was being broadcast. Xiaojun said that he used to like watching basketball very much. After he became addicted to online games, he seldom watched games.

  Xiaojun stabbed himself 13 times, and his arms, neck and abdomen were wrapped in gauze, but he seemed to recover well. Although the wound still hurts, every time his mother Wang Li hears his casual groan and asks, he always says "it doesn’t matter".

  After Xiaojun was injured and admitted to the hospital, Wang Li almost never left. Wang Li said that the child is introverted, but very obedient. She rarely scolds him at ordinary times. Now that the child has made a mistake, she can’t bear to be harsh.

  Talking about the child’s injury, 57-year-old Wang Li’s face is full of doubts. On the morning of December 1st, she cooked breakfast as usual. Xiaojun woke up early, holding his cell phone in bed. At 9 o’clock, Wang Li went out to buy food, and she casually greeted the child. More than 10 minutes later, while bargaining with vendors in the food market, Wang Li’s mobile phone rang. After being connected, she heard a painful voice: "Mom, help me!" "

  It only took Wang Li a few minutes to run home and open the door. The scene in front of her frightened her. There is a big pool of blood on the living room floor, and on the floor leading to the bedroom, it is like being drawn with a huge brush. Wang Li ran into the bedroom and found Xiaojun lying beside the bed, covered in blood. Xiaojun had just finished the phone call, and the hand holding the mobile phone was still covered with blood, and the other hand was tightly covering his abdomen. Xiaojun was still conscious at that time and said softly, "I stabbed myself with a knife."

  Xiaojun was immediately sent to Xuzhou Renci Hospital. The doctor in the hand surgery ward of the hospital said that the patient stabbed his neck, upper limbs, abdomen and buttocks with a fruit knife. The hospital immediately organized experts to perform surgery to repair blood vessels, nerves and tendons. After more than 5 hours of emergency rescue, the operation was successful.

  Experts told Zi Niu news reporter that the injured lost a lot of blood, but fortunately they were sent to the hospital in time, which did not cause serious consequences.

  Experience before the outbreak

  A

  After graduating from technical school, he has changed nearly 10 jobs.

  Xiaojun’s family is very ordinary. He is the only child in the family, and his parents were both workers. His mother retired from the unit a few years ago to take care of the family full-time, and his father retired from the unit and looked for a job everywhere. In addition to retirement wages, father’s income from odd jobs has become the main source of income for the family. Although the family is not well-off, in Wang Li’s view, "at least I have never suffered from children."

  After graduating from a technical school in Xuzhou three years ago, Xiaojun tried nearly 10 jobs intermittently. Recently, he just quit his job as a tower crane on the construction site. Wang Li and her husband have never made financial demands on their children. They feel that their children are still young and it is not time to put pressure on them.

  "He doesn’t think about playing games every day instead of working hard," said Wang Li. Xiaojun worked in internal security for nearly a year and often worked overtime. When he came home, his children were too tired to turn on the computer. Wang Li thinks that when Xiaojun is resting at home, playing games to kill time is also a kind of rest.

  Wang Li said that Xiaojun is somewhat introverted, but very obedient. There is no obstacle to family communication at ordinary times, so she never understands how children can make "stupid things". The only reason she can think of is that "it’s all from playing games"!

  Wang Li doesn’t know that Xiaojun’s recent favorite game is called the glory of the king. She just thinks that Xiaojun has no idea to go out to work since he played this game.

  B

  I lost a few games in the game and felt "particularly frustrated in my life"

  Like many peers, Xiaojun has been playing games for almost 10 years. Regarding the glory of the king, Xiaojun said that this game is not very good, but it is really "addictive".

  Xiaojun doesn’t think he did something stupid because he was addicted to playing games. "That impulse was actually an outbreak of long-term depression," Xiaojun told Zi Niu news reporter. He had just lost several games at the time of the incident, and suddenly felt that his life was meaningless: "I was particularly frustrated."

  The "frustration" in Xiaojun’s mouth probably began after graduating from a technical school three years ago. The school recommended him to a machinery factory. Xiaojun majored in mechatronics, but the job here is assembly. "What I have learned is completely useless." More than 20 students who joined this enterprise with Xiaojun soon left their jobs one after another. Xiaojun said that he could tolerate the low-paying and boring work, and it was the daily commuting time that prompted him to follow in the footsteps of his classmates. From home to the enterprise, Xiaojun has to take the bus for about 1 hour, and then transfer to the factory car. It takes 2 hours to get down. "I need to get up at 5 o’clock in the morning and get off work at 6 o’clock in the evening. I usually get home after 8 o’clock."

  The second job, recommended by the school, is a waiter in a catering enterprise in Xuzhou. Wang Li feels that this job has stimulated the child. "The unit leader found fault everywhere because the child’s hair was a little long at that time." She and her husband both supported Xiaojun’s resignation.

  C

  I once had a fierce family dispute because I wanted to go out and make a break.

  The two jobs were not smooth, and the parents never blamed themselves. On the contrary, Xiaojun felt a little discouraged. Xiaojun said that his father was retiring from the unit at that time, and his family had certain economic pressure. He was eager to share it with his family earlier.

  After quitting his job as a waiter, Xiaojun tried to work in a car decoration shop. The main job every day is to wash the car for the guests. "It’s very tired and worthless." A few months later, he tried the position of tower crane on the construction site. This time, his parents asked him to quit the job. The mother felt that the child often worked at night and the lighting on the construction site was not good. "What if the child fell?"

  The longest job Xiaojun has done is the internal security work of security enterprises. After working for nearly a year, Xiaojun is even more depressed, his salary is not high, and he often works overtime. The most uncomfortable thing is that most of his colleagues are uncles in their 40 s and 50 s. "There is no common language at all, and I feel that I am wasting my life."

  Xiaojun had a fierce argument with his parents. He once proposed to go to a city with better economic conditions. Unexpectedly, his parents immediately objected. Xiaojun’s father said, "You haven’t even washed your clothes. Can you take care of yourself?" Mother Wang Li always said that she doesn’t need Xiaojun to earn much money, just live a stable life, so far away from home, how can parents take care of him?

  D

  Although his parents don’t blame him, he feels "very useless"

  In the communication with Zi Niu journalists, Wang Li mentioned many times that real life is too harsh on children, and she doesn’t understand why society can’t provide children with a stable job. She once thought of turning to some institutions to provide some employment guidance and pre-job training for her children.

  Every time Xiaojun leaves his job, his parents never blame him, which makes Xiaojun feel "very useless". His way of venting his emotions is still online games. Xiaojun said that he actually has no "internet addiction", but he just thinks that what else can he do besides playing games? Since junior high school, he seems to have adapted to this life, and many of his classmates are like himself, spending their spare time in front of the computer. Xiaojun doesn’t have many friends in reality. On the contrary, he has met many people in the online game world, but apart from chatting about games, he and netizens rarely have other topics.

  When Xiaojun was engaged in internal security work, he alienated the game. Because he often worked overtime, he was very tired after returning home and lost the impulse to play games.

  Father likes to keep fit. During that time, Xiaojun followed his father to keep fit. Father and son often go to the gym together. After his father is busy with his work, Xiaojun insists on it, and his father often praises him for his "fruitful" practice. This hobby other than playing games failed to enrich Xiaojun’s life after all. All kinds of difficulties in work are still going on, and Xiaojun feels that he is getting more and more depressed until he has a heart-wrenching outbreak.

  Expert pulse-taking

  Find your own position

  Make up "career planning"

  Zhou Xianyang, deputy director of the Student Affairs Department of Jiangsu Normal University and director of the Employment and Entrepreneurship Guidance Service Center, believes that from Xiaojun’s employment experience, he has always been in a passive state of choosing a job and failed to find his own position. His various reasons for resignation seem more like avoiding.

  Zhou Xianyang suggested that Xiaojun might as well make a career plan first, find a correct position according to his own situation and stick to it. In fact, ordinary posts also need to learn and pay, but also need to try and practice. The initial stage is more about experience, and through our own efforts, we can develop step by step.

  Zhou Xianyang also suggested that Xiaojun’s parents should have confidence in their children and encourage them instead of "protecting" them blindly. In modern society, how many people don’t face pressure and challenges?

  Zhu Haimei, the first batch of professional psychological counselors in China and a senior psychological teacher in Xuzhou No.1 Middle School, believes that from Xiaojun’s experience and various actions, he has the characteristics of "hollow man" in psychology, and he is confused about his future and doesn’t know what he can do or want to do. She suggested that Xiaojun should first find the goal of life and make up the course of "career planning"; Secondly, Xiaojun has a certain lack of self-awareness ability. With the help of professionals in psychological counseling institutions, he can conduct "self-analysis" to understand what his inner desire is and whether it is in line with his own ability.

  Zhu Haimei also hopes that the parents of the children will boldly let go and let the children "take a trip."

  coda

  "I want to live a good life and work hard."

  After a few days in hospital, Xiaojun finally put down the game. He told Zi Niu news reporter that he fell down this time and he would get up again. "I won’t play games again." Xiaojun still hopes to find a job with a professional counterpart, but he also said that he had a problem with his mentality in the past and had too high expectations for himself. In the future, he will put down too many ideas and work as long as he is almost the same. He will not give up because of a little setback: "I want to live and work well."

  When Xiaojun said these words, Zi Niu news reporter noticed that Wang Li, whose mood had been calm, secretly wiped her tears behind her back.

What you don’t know about the Asian Games: Who will make the rules of the e-sports competition? Can you enter the Olympics in the future?

  Xinhua News Agency, Hangzhou, September 11th Question: What you don’t know about the Asian Games: Who will make the rules of the e-sports competition? Can you enter the Olympics in the future?

  Xinhua News Agency reporters Zhao Jiantong and Ji Jiadong

  The pace of the Asian Games in Hangzhou is approaching, and the attention of sports fans to various events is gradually heating up. E-sports can be said to be one of the "top streams" of this Asian Games. According to the ticketing scheme, e-sports is not only the most expensive ticket in the final as high as 1000 yuan, but also the only event that requires lottery to buy tickets, so its popularity can be seen.

  So what are the events in the e-sports competition of Hangzhou Asian Games? Who will make the rules of each event? After the Asian Games, can e-sports join the Olympic family in the future?

  The e-sports competition of Hangzhou Asian Games was held from September 24th to October 2nd in Hangzhou E-sports Center, China, and produced 7 gold medals. According to official website of Hangzhou Asian Games, there are seven events in this e-sports competition, namely League of Legends, the glory of the king (Asian Games version), Peace Elite (Asian Games version), Knife Tower 2, Dream of Three Kingdoms 2, Street Fighter 5 and FIFA Online 4.

  In addition to Street Fighter 5, the China team will compete in the other six games. According to industry analysis, the glory of the king, Peace Elite, Dream of Three Kingdoms 2 and other projects will be the potential gold medals for China. Different from the performance events in the 2018 Asian Games in Jakarta, the gold medal of this e-sports event will be included in the medal list.

  E-sports, as a new type of sports, its competition forms are different with different categories and platforms, and the corresponding schedule system and rules are also various. Fans who are concerned about e-sports will have questions. Compared with individual e-sports events with clubs as the unit, e-sports will become the official event of large-scale intercontinental comprehensive events for the first time. How can teams from different countries and regions in Asia be accommodated?

  It is reported that the e-sports events of the Hangzhou Asian Games will be decided by the Hangzhou Asian Games Organizing Committee and the Asian Electronic Sports Federation (hereinafter referred to as the "Asian Electronic Sports Federation") through consultation. During the whole preparation process, the copyright owners of the games kept communicating and integrating with the OCA, Asian Sports Federation, Hangzhou Asian Games Organizing Committee and other institutions, and established a set of universal standardized standards applicable to e-sports events in the Asian Games.

  Among them, the setting that can be used for reference for the future "e-sports included in large-scale comprehensive events" is that the glory of the king and Peace Elite respectively launched the Asian Games version. It is understood that the Asian Games version of the glory of the king has bridged the differences between different versions of heroes at home and abroad, and the peaceful elite has also eliminated the relatively "violent and bloody" escape and shooting. In addition, the two games canceled many commercial settings and some extended gameplay, which also made the game more fair and concise.

  Judging from the feedback from all parties before the opening of the Asian Games, the formal combination of e-sports and the Asian Games is a win-win marriage for the e-sports industry and traditional sports competitions represented by the Asian Games.

  Hong Xiao, an expert in e-sports industry and CEO of Perfect World, said: "The entry of e-sports into Asia is a milestone event, which not only means that e-sports will further move towards sports, but also promote the popularization and standardized development of e-sports."

  In Asia, sports and popularization of e-sports have become a trend. In July this year, the General Assembly of the Olympic Council of Asia was held in Bangkok. It was announced at the meeting that e-sports would become the official event of the 2026 Aichi Nagoya Asian Games. The Asian Sports Federation also announced that it will hold the Asian Cup of Electronic Sports in 2024. In addition, the Pan-American Games held in Chile in October this year will also host the Pan-American E-sports Championship.

  In the future, can e-sports go further and become an official event of the Olympic Games?

  International Olympic Committee President Bach said at a press conference in 2020: "Will e-sports be considered for inclusion in the Olympic Games one day? The answer is yes. It depends on when this day comes. "

  This year, the International Olympic Committee frequently released the signal of "embracing" e-sports. In June, the first Olympic E-sports Week was held in Singapore, which was the first offline event named "Esports" under the International Olympic Committee. In September, the International Olympic Committee announced the establishment of a new e-sports committee, which also triggered many reverie of global sportsmen.

  In the discourse system of the International Olympic Committee, there is a strict distinction between Virtual Sports and electronic game competition in concept, and in terms of the prospect of entering the Olympic Games, the organization once said that the priority would be virtual sports, such as cycling and taekwondo, which require real physical exercise for participants.

  Although there have always been strict standards and procedures for the inclusion of new sports, the International Olympic Committee has maintained an open attitude towards the "young wave". From the perspective of skateboarding, break dancing and surfing, it may really be only a matter of time before e-sports enter the Olympics.

Are pineapple and pineapple the same fruit?

If the fruit circle is going to make a biography of Zhen Huan, then pineapples and pineapples will be the essential protagonists in this palace fight drama.

For a long time, the debate about whether they are the same fruit has never stopped. Open the search engine and enter the words "pineapple and pineapple" to find 5.95 million pieces of information.

You can find 5.95 million pieces of information by typing the words "pineapple and pineapple" in the search engine.

In the camp of "not the same fruit", supporters list the differences between pineapple and pineapple in every detail, for example, pineapple has fewer thorns, does not need to dig trenches, does not need to be soaked in salt water, and is more noble than pineapple (no, the pineapple party refuses).

The other camp believes that pineapple is actually a pineapple, and the two are like tomatoes and tomatoes, potatoes and potatoes.

So, what is the relationship between pineapples and pineapples on the market?

The dispute between pineapple and pineapple is actually an "infighting"

To understand this puzzle that has puzzled the fruit circle for a long time, we must first talk about the pineapple family.

According to the "Flora of China", the common name of pineapple is pineapple.

Botanically speaking, they are the same plant of the genus Bromeliaceae.

There are more than 2,000 employees in 45 genera in this "department" of Bromeliaceae, among which only one species of pineapple has economic cultivation value, and the rest have become ornamental flowers.

Potatoes, perennial evergreen herbaceous pulpy plants of bromeliaceae.

In 1935, there were 135 recorded pineapple varieties. According to the characteristics of fruits, they can be divided into four categories: Cayenne Group, Queen Group, Spanish Group and hybrid group.

If you go to a supermarket or a fruit shop to buy pineapple, you will probably buy a queen variety called Bali.

In 2015, about 80% of the main pineapple producing areas in Chinese mainland were cultivated in Bali.

Its leaves are a little prickly, and it will prick your hand. If you cut it open, you will find many black round fruit eyes, which are actually the stigma and stamens left in the pulp of pineapple.

After removing them, you can eat only about 57% of the pulp.

If you are persuaded by Bali pineapple and want to switch to "pineapple", then the clerk may recommend some special varieties to you, such as golden diamond pineapple, perfume pineapple, peeled pineapple and so on, but they are actually different members of the pineapple family.

Take Golden Diamond Pineapple as an example, it is a hybrid variety bred in Taiwan Province area, numbered Tainong 17. In 2018, 85% of the pineapples cultivated in Taiwan Province were golden diamonds.

Its size is one or two times larger than that of Bali, but its fruit eye is only half as deep as that of Bali. After cutting the peel, it can be eaten directly, with a crisp taste and overflowing juice.

Because the bromelain content in golden diamond pineapple is relatively low, it won’t sting too much when eaten.

However, its excellent taste and quality also mean that you need to pay more money to take it home. For example, in Baiguoyuan, a chain fruit shop, the price of an A-grade Bali pineapple is about 13.5 ~ 15.8 yuan/kg, while the price of a golden diamond pineapple of the same level is 42 ~ 45 yuan/kg.

The Lantern Festival, which has been passed down for more than two thousand years, is the "carnival" of the Chinese nation.


  February 9th is the traditional Lantern Festival. Folklore experts said that as one of the important traditional festivals in China, the Lantern Festival has a history of more than 2,000 years, and its excitement can be called the "carnival" of the Chinese nation.


  Zhao Zhi Heng, an expert in Tianjin folklore, said that according to the China lunar calendar, the same date of the sun and the moon’s yellow meridian is the first day of January, when the sun, the moon and the earth are generally in a straight line. The first month is January, and the ancients called the night "Xiao". The fifteenth day of January is the first full moon night in the traditional lunar year, so it is called the Lantern Festival, also known as "Shangyuan Festival".


  According to the folk tradition in China, on the festival night in spring returns, the moon is high in the sky, and there are thousands of lanterns on the ground. People watch lanterns, solve riddles on the lanterns, eat Yuanxiao and have a family reunion, which makes them happy.


  Wang Sichao, a researcher at Purple Mountain Observatory of Chinese Academy of Sciences, said that Lantern Festival has a history of at least 2,000 years in China. Legend has it that after the Western Han Dynasty put down the "Zhulu Rebellion", Emperor Wen of Han deeply felt that peace and prosperity were hard-won, so he designated the fifteenth day of the first month of the rebellion as the day of having fun with the people.


  Emperor Han Ming of East China advocated Buddhism. He heard that monks lit lamps to worship Buddha on the fifteenth day of the first month of Buddhism, so he ordered the palace temples to light lamps to worship Buddha that night, and ordered the gentry and ordinary people to hang lamps. Since then, the Lantern Festival has gradually formed a grand festival.


  Folklore experts say that New Year’s Eve and the first day of the first month are traditionally celebrated by families, while the Lantern Festival is about going out of the house to have fun with the whole world, which is the only festival with "noisy" as its core content. As the saying goes, "the fifteenth day of the first month is noisy." The word "Noisy" shows the exultation and excitement of the Lantern Festival, and also shows the differences between the Lantern Festival and other festivals.


  Folklore experts say that Lantern Festival is popular, and fireworks are also indispensable. In addition to lights, more prominent activities are all kinds of community fires, such as lion dancing, dragon lantern playing, roller boating, walking on stilts, drum beating and yangko dancing, which are played every year and are popular. The Lantern Festival can be said to be a carnival in China. Its customs and activities are more varied and colorful in traditional festivals in China.

Cloud perspective | Don’t be silly and confused whether to eat Yuanxiao or Tangyuan on Lantern Festival.

the Lantern Festival

Gain three pounds every holiday.

After eating and drinking during the Spring Festival

The second round of the festival "Lantern Festival" is coming again.

Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first month

In the Lantern Festival, people watch lanterns and solve riddles on the lanterns.

And have a family reunion to eat Yuanxiao.

It means sweet New Year reunion.

as the proverb goes

Eating yuanxiao in the north

South chi dumplings

Lantern Festival? Tangyuan?

Why do the north and the south eat differently?

Are they one thing?

In fact, glutinous rice dumplings and Yuanxiao are both snow-white spheres filled with glutinous rice. Tracing back to the source, they are the same thing.

The custom of eating glutinous rice balls began in the Song Dynasty, but in the process of evolution, the differences in production techniques between the north and the south gradually formed two names.

"Roll" Yuanxiao in the North

When people in the north make Yuanxiao, they first knead the stuffing into a uniform ball, put it in a laundry basket covered with dry glutinous rice flour and shake it constantly. From time to time, water is added to make the stuffing stick more and more glutinous rice flour until the stuffing is covered with glutinous rice flour and rolled into a ball.

Because of this, Yuanxiao can be eaten in a variety of ways. Such as frying or steaming.

Yuanxiao tastes strong on the skin, and the stuffing is chewy. The boiled soup will be thicker, which is a bit like drinking rice soup.

The method of making glutinous rice balls is a bit like making steamed stuffed buns. First, glutinous rice flour is added with water to form balls, which are left for several hours. Then, the stuffing is mixed evenly and put in a container for later use, and it is not necessary to cut into small pieces. The water content of glutinous rice balls is more than that of Yuanxiao, and the wet glutinous rice flour is very sticky. You can only pull a small ball of wet noodles by hand, squeeze it into a round shape, pick a ball of stuffing and put it on the glutinous rice slices, and then turn around with both hands to make glutinous rice balls. The fillings of glutinous rice balls are sweet and salty, and there are meat and vegetables. In many places, pork, ham and shrimp are also used as fillings.

Tangyuan has a smooth skin and a delicate taste. Because there is a lot of water in the stuffing, the stuffing will flow out like quicksand at the moment when it is bitten. Besides, the soup cooked with glutinous rice balls is clearer than Yuanxiao.

In addition, the storage of Yuanxiao can’t be frozen, but it can only be cooked and eaten now, and it can’t be stored for a long time (it will crack if it is kept for a long time, and the same is true for cold storage), while the dumplings must be frozen.

In fact, no matter whether you eat Yuanxiao or Tangyuan, although there are differences in form, the moral you want to express is the same, that is, round and round, round and full.

A little more knowledge

Yuanxiao is delicious, but some people should not eat more.

Diabetic patients: The sugar content of Yuanxiao is high. If patients covet the delicious food, their blood sugar will rise sharply, which will not only aggravate their illness, but also induce ketoacidosis.

Patients with ulcer disease: Eating Yuanxiao can increase gastric acid secretion, aggravate the stimulation to ulcer surface, and even induce gastric bleeding and gastric perforation in severe cases.

Gastrointestinal dysfunction: Yuanxiao is made of glutinous rice flour, which is sticky and difficult to digest. After eating, it can lead to stomach pain, bloating, belching, acid reflux and even diarrhea.

Patients with acute gastroenteritis: the gastrointestinal tract is in a state of congestion and edema. Patients should eat digestible foods such as rice soup and lotus root starch. Eating Yuanxiao will increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract.

Patients with high fever: The gastrointestinal tract of patients is relatively inhibited when they have fever, so they should eat some easily digestible food such as liquid food, otherwise it will aggravate the condition.

Patients with hypertension, hyperlipidemia and gout: These patients are in danger of aggravating their condition by eating Yuanxiao, so it is advisable to eat less.

Early recovery from a long illness: At this time, although the patient’s appetite has improved, his digestive function is still weak, and excessive consumption of Yuanxiao is not conducive to recovery.

Old and infirm people: these people have decreased digestive function and lost teeth, especially the old people’s swallowing reflex is relatively slow, which may cause the Lantern Festival to get stuck in the throat due to rapid swallowing, leading to breathing difficulties and even suffocation and death.

Infants and young children: Children’s digestive function is weak, and their swallowing reflex has not been fully developed. Therefore, when eating Yuanxiao, you should not eat it whole, but divide it into a quarter, and then eat the second bite after eating one bite. You must chew slowly to prevent accidents.

People whose digestive function has not recovered after "Yangkang": It is also not suitable to eat more Yuanxiao, otherwise it will aggravate their own basic diseases and bring about adverse reactions such as abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, acid reflux and heartburn.

"Sixteen full moons on the 15th" is still the annual "minimum full moon".

On the Lantern Festival, it is the right time to enjoy the moon. According to astronomical science experts, the Lantern Festival in Guimao Year of the Rabbit "the 16th Moon of the 15th" is still the annual "minimum full moon".

"Because the moment of’ looking’ in the first month of Guimao Year of the Rabbit appears at 2: 29 on February 6, the Lantern Festival in the Year of the Rabbit is’ the 16th Moon of the 15th’." Xiu Lipeng, a member of the Chinese Astronomical Society and director of the Tianjin Astronomical Society, said.

This round of the most round Lantern Festival is a bit special. It is not only the first full moon in the year of Guimao Rabbit, but also the smallest full moon in 2023.

How to appreciate this round of Lantern Festival full moon? "The moment of’ looking’ takes place in the early hours of the morning, and the public who intend to enjoy the moon can watch and shoot about two hours after sunset on the 5th. At this time, although the moon is not the roundest, it is almost the same as the roundest moment, and it has just risen and looks very big. It is not only suitable for naked eye appreciation, but also very suitable for taking photos with the ground landscape. " Xiu Lipeng suggested.

A slower love may be happier. The boy met her with the same frequency in the exploration.

Although Liang Fei (pseudonym) has not read many books, he is a very hard-working young man. After several years of social experience, Liang Fei finally had his own career, and his family began to worry about his marriage. Although Liang Fei usually dresses up like a bachelor who has no one to take care of him, in fact, he has already met a nice girl on the scout.
The girl’s name is Linlin (a pseudonym). She is cute in appearance and not gentle in character, but she knows that she cares about people. Her biggest dream is to find a husband who loves and takes care of herself. For Linlin, a husband doesn’t need to be too handsome or too rich, but he must be a man who particularly dotes on his wife.
Liang Fei and Linlin have known each other for a long time, but both of them are traditional and conservative people, so their relationship is progressing relatively slowly. After knowing each other for three months, Liang Fei and Linlin started video chatting. After knowing each other for half a year, they met for the first time. It took them a year to know each other before they officially confirmed their relationship.
When Liang Fei just stepped into the society, he was also an affectionate teenager who really wanted to fall in love. However, after several endless love affairs, Liang Fei finally realized that the key to a reliable relationship is to meet someone with the same frequency. If you slow down a little, you may be able to see a person’s character and conduct more clearly.
Later, Liang Fei met Linlin on exploration. This time, Liang Fei didn’t rush to tell Linlin, but started with Linlin as friends. After getting to know Linlin better, Liang Fei tried to show Linlin his mind. Until this time, Liang Fei didn’t say those three words to Linlin, because he was not sure whether he liked or loved Linlin at the moment.
Linlin is a slow girl, and Liang Fei and Linlin are people with the same frequency. His slow pace left a very good impression on Linlin, and she thought Liang Fei would be a more reliable boy. So, Linlin also agreed to Liang Fei’s meeting request, and the two began to formally date.
As ordinary people, the form and process of dating are roughly the same. Liang Fei is not a romantic man, and he doesn’t know what emotional appeal is, but he is more careful. And Linlin won’t play the woman, won’t pretend to be gentle in front of the person she likes, but she really cares about Liang Fei’s life.
After Liang Fei and Linlin confirmed the relationship, Liang Fei changed a lot. He changed from a rough man dressed casually to a clean and decent boy. Even when he went out to talk about things, his business partners were more confident in their cooperation. And Linlin is really happy like a princess. She can be coaxed and used by Liang Fei when she loses her temper. She can boss Liang Fei around when she is unhappy, and she will be gently held in her arms by Liang Fei when she is uncomfortable …
Once upon a time, cars and horses were slow, and I only loved one person in my life. In fact, in a fast-paced life, slower love may be more happy. There are many single brothers and sisters who are practical and reliable. If you are single, you will definitely meet the ta who "slows down" with you.

The leader of the college entrance examination composition marking team published a book to teach writing. Experts questioned: The examination institute should respond.

  Recently, this year’s perfect composition "Living in a Tree" in Zhejiang College Entrance Examination triggered a hot discussion among netizens, and Chen Jianxin, the leader of the composition marking group of Zhejiang College Entrance Examination and an associate professor of Zhejiang University, received attention. Some netizens pointed out that Chen Jianxin was the editor-in-chief of the college entrance examination composition teaching aid book, and gave many lectures on college entrance examination composition teaching, and questioned Chen Jianxin’s "abuse of power for personal gain".

  In this regard, the survey in The Paper found that Chen Jianxin had edited two supplementary books on composition for college entrance examination in 2016 and 2019, and gave lectures on "Intensive Training Course on Composition for College Entrance Examination" through Tencent Classroom, Qingyun Duan Micro Classroom, Southern Academy and other platforms, with a price of 199 yuan. In addition, he has given many lectures on composition for teachers and students in Zhejiang Province.

  Is Chen Jianxin’s behavior illegal or "abusing power for personal gain"? When interviewed by The Paper, many education experts said that it is necessary for Zhejiang Education Examinations Institute to answer and decide whether college entrance examination examiners edit relevant books and give lectures in violation of regulations.

  Recently, The Paper repeatedly called the Scientific Research and Publicity Department of Zhejiang Education Examinations Institute, but no one answered the phone.

  With regard to a series of discussions triggered by the perfect score composition of Zhejiang college entrance examination, many education experts also mentioned that further education reform should be carried out to change the way of education evaluation.

  Editor-in-chief of the college entrance examination composition teaching assistant, lecturing on the "intensive training course of college entrance examination composition" for 199 yuan.

  The Paper noted that Chen Jianxin had participated in the editing of two supplementary books on college entrance examination composition, namely, Selected Comments on Essays published by Zhejiang Education Publishing House in 2016 and Practical Training on College Entrance Examination Composition published in 2019. At present, these two books are sold on multiple e-commerce platforms.

  In a shop of an e-commerce platform, the introduction of "Selected Comments on Discourse Articles" shows that Chen Jianxin, the editor-in-chief of the book, is priced in 30 yuan, and the content is divided into five parts; The latest revised edition published in 2017 added the "2017 college entrance examination composition marking standard" and "selected more than 20 examination room compositions and authentic comments".

  According to the information of another store on the above-mentioned e-commerce platform, one of the two editors of the College Entrance Examination Composition Practical Training is Chen Jianxin, whose price is 59 yuan, and the designated purchase method is "Xinhua Bookstore in Zhejiang Province". The book also contains full-score compositions and comments from the college entrance examination.

  In addition, Chen Jianxin’s "Intensive Training Course of College Entrance Examination Composition" was launched on Tencent Classroom, Qingyun Micro Classroom and other platforms, and was promoted through the media platform in late April 2019.

Screenshot of the related publicity page of "College Entrance Examination Composition Intensive Training Course" by Chen Jianxin.

  The poster of this course is written with the words "2019 College Entrance Examination Composition" and "College Entrance Examination Composition Intensive Training Course for Candidates by College Entrance Examination Marking Teachers". According to the lecturer, Chen Jianxin has been the leader of the composition marking group of Zhejiang College Entrance Examination since 2000, presiding over the composition marking work of Zhejiang College Entrance Examination every year, and evaluating the perfect composition every year. The introduction of the course features in the poster also emphasizes "the head of the college entrance examination marking team and the famous marking teacher personally teach", "accurately coping with the scoring points of the college entrance examination composition" and "writing skills that can be directly applied to the examination room composition".

  According to the information in the publicity page, the "2019 College Entrance Examination Composition Intensive Training Course" was created by Zhejiang Education Publishing Group, with a total of 18 sessions, including the college entrance examination composition marking and high score points, examination, conception, breakthrough in essay writing, and the use of words and phrases. The online course is priced at 199 yuan in Tencent classroom and Southern Academy platform.

  In addition, Chen Jianxin has given lectures on composition for college entrance examination for Zhejiang teachers and students for many times.

  Official website, Education Bureau of Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province, shows that Chen Jianxin gave a special lecture on composition for the 2019 college entrance examination for all senior high school teachers in Deqing County in March 2019 in Deqing No.1 Middle School of Huzhou. Official website, the People’s Government of Cangnan County, Zhejiang Province, shows that Chen Jianxin participated in the "On-the-spot Meeting of Writing Guidance for Senior High School Chinese College Entrance Examination" hosted by Cangnan County Education Bureau in March 2018, giving lectures on composition guidance for nearly 200 senior high school Chinese teachers. Official website of Hangzhou Xuejun Middle School in Zhejiang Province showed that Chen Jianxin had given a lecture entitled "How to write a good exposition article" at the school in April 2017, and the audience was all senior three students of Hangzhou Xuejun Middle School.

  On the morning of August 10th, according to the report of The Paper, Chen Jianxin responded that he was "unclear" about compiling teaching AIDS for college entrance examination composition.

  Whether the relevant behavior is illegal or not needs to be answered by Zhejiang Education Examinations Institute.

  In the past few days, the concern aroused by the perfect score composition of Zhejiang college entrance examination has shifted from the discussion on the text of Living in a Tree and whether the full score given by the composition is reasonable to the disclosure of the marking situation by the head of the Chinese marking group of the college entrance examination, the editing of the teaching aid book of the college entrance examination composition, and whether the intensive training courses and lectures on the college entrance examination composition are in compliance and whether it is suspected of abusing power for personal gain.

  In this regard, on August 10th, Chen Zhiwen, editor-in-chief of China Education Online, said in an interview with The Paper that there was no room for discussion about how to judge the perfect composition in Zhejiang College Entrance Examination. "In fact, foreign exams such as TOEFL, IELTS SAT, GRE, etc., candidates need to sign a statement on the transfer of rights before the exam. The core meaning is that right or wrong is determined by the organizers of the exam, not by people including candidates." Chen Zhiwen said.

  He believes that among the concerns caused by the perfect score composition of Zhejiang college entrance examination, the only point worth discussing is: Who pushed a topic that is not suitable for discussion in the public opinion field to the public opinion field?

  On August 5th, Wen Rumin, editor-in-chief of Chinese textbooks for primary and secondary schools hired by the Ministry of Education, pointed out in the Weibo that the marking of the college entrance examination should be kept confidential, and all participants in marking should not disclose the marking situation to the outside world, and bluntly said, "It is illegal to disclose the Zhejiang perfect score composition in the journal for the first time."

  In addition, on August 10th, Chu Zhaohui, a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Educational Sciences, told The Paper that it was definitely not suitable for the group leader of Chinese composition marking in the college entrance examination to write and publish the college entrance examination composition guidance book and give lectures on composition guidance.

  In this regard, Chen Zhiwen said that, unlike the proposer, the management of college entrance examination examiners is relatively not too confidential. Therefore, whether it is illegal for college entrance examination examiners to go out to give lectures and publish some related books requires the relevant departments of various provinces to answer and decide.

  Similarly, Xiong Bingqi, president of the 21st Century Education Research Institute, pointed out that it is not rational to discuss the issue just because Chen Jianxin published books and participated in lectures. Whether there is any act of illegally seeking personal gain by using the identity of the group leader of Chinese composition marking in Chen Jianxin requires the involvement of relevant departments in the investigation.

  An education expert who did not want to be named bluntly said: "Zhejiang Education Examinations Institute has the responsibility to stand up and respond to public questions."

  Expert: The entrance examination should be changed from "selection" to "evaluation"

  Xiong Bingqi believes that it is impossible for the examiners to disclose the college entrance examination questions, and it is not against the regulations to interpret the marking standards for serving candidates, with the leader of the marking group as the editor-in-chief and publishing books on composition guidance.

  Chu Zhaohui, on the other hand, said that Chen Jianxin is not alone in publishing books and giving lectures by examiners in the college entrance examination. Some training institutions still use examiners to conduct commercial speculation. He believes that this kind of situation has both loopholes in the system and lax management, so it is necessary to improve the system and strengthen management.

  In addition, Chen Zhiwen believes that the statement that "Chen Jianxin has been the head of the Zhejiang College Entrance Examination Chinese composition marking group since 2000 and presided over the annual Zhejiang College Entrance Examination composition marking work" needs to be verified by the authorities. "There are still many people who claim to be the leader of the proposition, or the proposer. Can you believe it?" Chen Zhiwen said.

  Talking about a series of discussions triggered by the perfect score composition of Zhejiang College Entrance Examination, Chu Zhaohui and Xiong Bingqi both mentioned the need for further education reform.

  Xiong Bingqi pointed out that the focus of the contradiction lies in the fact that the college entrance examination is a selection test, not an evaluation test. The so-called selection test is to select candidates fairly, and it doesn’t matter whether the selection system is scientific or not; The evaluation test, on the other hand, is to pass the test to evaluate students’ mastery of real subject knowledge and subject accomplishment.

  He believes that it is difficult to solve the problem of exam-oriented composition atmosphere through marking. "To improve the quality of composition proposition and reading, further improve the quality of Chinese education, and the quality of education in all subjects, we need to promote the reform of the examination enrollment system and effectively change the entrance examination from ‘ Selection ’ , the reform is ‘ Evaluation ’ . Otherwise, the controversy surrounding the proposition and marking is just ‘ Chicken feathers in one place ’ 。”

  Chu Zhaohui believes that the controversial issue reflects from a deeper level that the current enrollment examination program design is not standardized and professional. "In a more standardized and professional procedure, the questioner doesn’t have to write the questions in a closed environment, and the questions need to go through multiple procedures and various tests before ‘ Out of the oven ’ ; In the marking session, it will not be determined that a certain person will be the team leader for a long time. " Chu Zhaohui said.

  "There is still a long distance between the professionalism and modernity of the college entrance examination enrollment process and modern education evaluation." Chu Zhaohui, for example, said that some foreign exams judged that candidates cheated, not because they caught the candidates plagiarizing in the examination room, but because they initiated the analysis of the answer results, and if the analysis results showed that some answers reached a certain similarity, they were considered cheating.

  In this regard, Chu Zhaohui’s idea can allow ordinary colleges and universities to use students’ academic performance in high school as the basis for enrollment, thus narrowing the scope of the college entrance examination. In this way, the workload of marking and evaluating the college entrance examination is relatively reduced, and it is possible to analyze and evaluate the results of the college entrance examination according to different levels, to reverse the problems of exam-oriented teaching and routine answering, and to promote the specialization and modernization of educational evaluation.

Swimming inventory: the "gender imbalance" between the United States and Australia, the China Navy is no longer "water"


  In the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, Phelps’ eight gold medals broke the 36-year-old record that was once considered inaccessible by swimmer Mark Spitz. Phelps participated in men’s 400m individual medley, men’s 200m individual medley, men’s 100m butterfly, men’s 200m butterfly, men’s 200m freestyle, men’s 4x100m freestyle relay, men’s 4x200m freestyle relay and men’s 4x100m medley relay successively at the Beijing Olympic Games, winning eight gold medals, breaking seven world records, and gaining fourteen individual medals. Phelps set an insurmountable record for others. China News Agency issued Du Yang photo



  On the morning of August 10th, on the first day of the swimming final of the Beijing Olympic Games, China’s Zhang Lin won the silver medal in the men’s 400m freestyle, while South Korean Park Tae hwan and American Zhan Sen won the championship and the third place respectively. This is also the first time that a male athlete from China has won an Olympic medal. China News Agency issued Du Yang photo


  BEIJING, Aug. 16 (Xinhua) Title: Swimming Inventory: The United States and Australia are "gender imbalance" and the China Navy is no longer "water"


  Author: Lu Chunyan


  On August 17th, "prodigy" michael phelps led the American team to win the gold medal in the men’s 4×100 medley relay final, and won his eighth gold medal in Beijing. This marks the end of the swimming event in Beijing, which is second only to the 46 gold medals in track and field. The "Water Cube" of this Olympic Games has turned into a "Water Cube", and the world record has been labeled as "fragile". The United States and Australia have their own gains in competing for hegemony, and the China Navy has also seen hope in its progress.


  "Yang Prosperity and Yin Decline" VS "Yin Prosperity and Yang Decline" The United States and Australia strive for hegemony and "gender imbalance"


  Compared with the Athens swimming event, the gorgeous performance of the American swimming team in the Water Cube can be described as "dominating the world". The results of 12 gold medals, 9 silver medals and 9 bronze medals left Australia’s 6 gold medals, 6 silver medals and 8 bronze medals far behind.


  However, Australia, suppressed by the United States, should also be respected. After all, today’s swimming world has the strength to challenge the American team, and it is Australia. The remaining 14 gold medals were divided among 11 countries, with Britain, Germany and Japan each taking two, and China, Brazil, Tunisia, South Korea, the Netherlands, Italy, France and Zimbabwe each taking one.


  The distribution of gold medals in the American swimming delegation showed a situation of "Yang flourishes and Yin declines". Male athletes won 10 of the 12 gold medals, and they monopolized five-eighths of the Olympic men’s swimming events under the leadership of Phelps. Only coughlin and Sony saved a little face for American female swimmers.


  Unlike the United States, which relies on men’s events, Australia has completely embarked on the "female route". All six gold medals in the "Water Cube" were won by female athletes, while male athletes only got three silver medals and three bronze medals. Compared with the American team, Australia’s "Yin flourishes while Yang declines" seems to be more thorough.


  "Yin flourishes and Yang declines" VS "Yang flourishes and Yin declines", and there is a gender imbalance between the United States and Australia. In August, a gender war was staged at the National Aquatics Center.


  World records are labeled as "fragile" and old records are turned into rarities.


  The Water Cube staged a "war epic" against the "world record" from the first match day when two world records were born in the four finals. Seven of the eight gold medals won by the American "prodigy" rewrote the world record, and even the only gold medal in the 100m butterfly, which was "lighter" than the other seven gold medals, was almost the same as the world record. What’s more, Zimbabwe’s Coventry started a record-breaking trip in the preliminaries.


  The birth of one new world record after another makes the audience seem to have formed "aesthetic fatigue" on the records, and a large number of newly released records really test everyone’s memory. All of a sudden, those records that have been preserved have become rare, and they can still be "immune" when such large-scale good results are released, which shows the preciousness of these old records.


  Men make history. China swims in the "Water Cube" and sees hope.


  China swimming, dormant in the downturn, finally saw the hope of recovery in the "Water Cube". One gold, three silvers, two bronzes, three 4th, one 5th, one 7th and one 8th in this Olympic Games are enough for China to get a performance score of 80 points. All these have become the best evidence that Zhang Yadong, the head coach, pointed out that China Water Army began to walk out of the trough.


  Liu Zige, Jiao Liuyang and other young players have changed the situation in 2007, and Zhang Lin’s silver medal has also shown us the progress of male athletes.


  The most significant one is the silver medal in the men’s 400-meter freestyle from Zhang Lin. Even in Barcelona, the most splendid swimming place in China, the male swimmers from China failed to grab a gold and a half silver. Zhang Lin won the first medal in Olympic history for men’s swimming in China with his own efforts and national support.


  However, we should also see that China’s swimming strength is still far from the collective advantage of the United States and Australia, and the highlights are only concentrated in three or two events. Moreover, China’s swimming does not have the domineering and winning strength of the United States and Australia.


  However, I still believe that "a single spark can start a prairie fire", and I hope that China Swimming, which finds a breakthrough point, can make a name for itself in the Olympic swimming field through its own efforts.


  "God" Phelps, the first man in the centennial Olympic Games, ascended the throne in Beijing.


  After winning the NBA championship three times in a row, the media commented that "Jordan is God wearing a jersey and playing"; Once again won the NBA championship for three consecutive times, the media commented that "even God can’t beat Jordan in his jersey". Therefore, even with bare arms, God may not be able to win eight gold medals in an Olympic Games, but the "prodigy" did it.


  Michael phelps seems to have come to Beijing to break the record. He has seven world records in eight competitions, a single Olympic gold medal record with eight gold medals and an individual Olympic gold medal record with fourteen gold medals. Phelps is proving himself to be the "Water Cube" and the king of Olympic history with figures that others can’t match.


  When Bolt broke the world record and won the 100-meter new Olympic champion, the media who liked the new and hated the old questioned the ownership of "the best athlete in Beijing Olympic Games". In fact, this is a very simple arithmetic problem. Can’t nine records beat one record? The record of eight gold medals of "prodigy" was accumulated in the Olympic Games for a hundred years, but who can say that the record road of 9.69 seconds can be kept fresh in a hundred years?


  For 23-year-old Phelps, the Beijing Olympic Games is probably just a "walk" of his brilliant career, because he will be 27 years old in four years, which is the best age for professional athletes. At that time, he will give the world the expectation of several Olympic gold medals. (End)

Why did the year-on-year decline in lottery sales suddenly get cold in December? Where will the future go?

Two sets of contradictory data: year-on-year decline and year-on-year increase of lottery tickets …

Just now, the Ministry of Finance announced that the national lottery sales in December last year was 53.284 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 8.565 billion yuan and a year-on-year decrease of nearly 14%.

Why did the year-on-year decline in lottery sales suddenly get cold in December? Where will the future go?

According to the data, the total lottery sales amount increased last year, and the growth rate was as high as 36.5%.

-Why did the lottery ticket, whose sales trend rose as a whole, suddenly get cold in December?

We may find clues from a lottery incident in Jiangxi.

Let’s review the 220 million yuan lottery event in Jiangxi.

On December 2, 2023, a lottery player in Jiangxi spent 100,000 yuan to buy 220 million yuan in the lottery, becoming an unprecedented lucky dog.

Why did the year-on-year decline in lottery sales suddenly get cold in December? Where will the future go?

This lottery event soon became a hot spot. Then, it is a constant voice of doubt, followed by! !

There are many doubts about the winning event, and public opinion has focused on at least three points:

First, who will suddenly spend 100,000 yuan to buy lottery tickets? This doesn’t make sense in the logic of normal people’s thinking. Even the old lottery players would not be so bold.

Second, how did the winners "accurately bet" the same group of numbers, and they got 220 million yuan in luck. Look carefully, that is, betting on the same group of numbers, without avoiding the risk of betting at all, that is, putting eggs in the same basket.

Third, the grand prize triggered risk control, and you can receive all the bonuses of more than 220 million yuan without paying taxes. This is not an insider, and it is estimated that no one really knows this rule.

Why did the year-on-year decline in lottery sales suddenly get cold in December? Where will the future go?
