 Topic 1: China's Fake1 UrbanizationAn article on Sohu Business titled "China's Fake Urbanization" has recently attracted a lot of attention from inside and outside China. It claims that while the urban-to-rural ratio went past 50% in 2012, many of these residents are still treated as second class citizens.

What is Urbanization?
Topic 2: English will not quit GaokaoThe college entrance examination: the bane of every high school student who ever wished to have a normal childhood. However, after much noise from the central and local governments, it does seem that China examination environment is set to change…. That is, at least according to one academic.
At a conference on Saturday, Gu Mingyuan, chairman of the Chinese Society of Education, said that by 2017 English will not be a part of the gaokao.
Why do you think people don't want English as part of the gaokao?
Topic 3: Community Service for the ElderlyChaoyang District here in Beijing is going to start offering community service for older people over the next three months. By calling community service center hotline 96156, senior people will get help with cooking, laundry, chores, grocery purchase or someone to talk to.
Do we need something like this?
Topic 4: Chinese people's misconception about the US high school educationIt used to be that Chinese parents wanted to send their kids abroad for postgraduate2 degrees. Then it became undergraduate. Now, more and more parents seek to send their children to high school and even earlier. However, it seems that, according to former Peking University Dean3, many parents choose the US based on misconceptions of the US academic environment.
Why do parents want to send their kids to the US for high school or earlier?
Topic 5: Lanzhou Parking Management ProblemsEarlier this month, Lanzhou government asked that all the parking spaces in the city to be registered and put on official record. This aims to regulate4 the management of these parking spaces and bring them under official city management.
How serious are the parking problems in the city?
Topic 6: Nurses dressed up as flight attendantsA hospital in Jiangsu Province has taken it upon themselves to dress their nurses up like flight attendants6, in a bid to improve the hospital's service.
As it turns out, it's not all its nurses, but a carefully selected group of 12 nurses have undergone professional training to be a flight attendant5.
Is there a problem? Do nurses need to provide better service?
