Topic1 HIV-carrier boy was expelled by villagersMore than 200 villagers in Xichong County, Sichuan Province signed a petition to cast an 8-year-old boy with HIV out of the village, which triggered uproar1 on the Internet. Villagers are afraid that they will get infected from the daily contact with the boy.
What happened? Topic2 Donation for
Buddhism2 goes to companyWhen visiting temples, people tend to put some money in the donation boxes. As people feel, that money can show how
devoted3 they are to the
Buddha4, or at least can be used to repair the temples and facilities. However, they are wrong.
According to a recent report, most of the donation goes to the companies that manage the
scenic5 spots. Is the money for the Buddha going to the pockets of private companies?
Topic3 Buying stuff for friends abroadAs Chinese people travel abroad, it's common to bring back souvenirs or foreign goods for family and friends. But a young couple in Chongqing actually got scolded for buying the wrong stuff or at a price too expensive for their loved ones.
Isn't it a super nice thing to do for friends?
Topic4 Communication gap between man and womanAttention ladies! Have you ever suspected that your man seems like he's listening to you, but you wonder if his mind has drifted miles away? Then he probably is.
A recent research shows that, the average man can stand just 6 minutes of his female partner talking about her lunch, her
celebrity6 gossip, and her feelings. But, a man can stay focused for 15 minutes listening to his best buds talk about soccer or their sex life.
What does the research say?
Topic5 When do women let their partners see their face with no makeupAccording to Irish writer and poet Oscar Wilde, a man's face is his
autobiography8. A woman's face is her work of fiction.
Now a UK survey shows that over half of British women won't let their partner see them without makeup until they have been dating for a year.
Does this make any sense to you?
