Topic 1: Parents willing to pay millions for substitute gaokao takersAn organization of Gaokao ghostwriters, who use another students’ identity, have been exposed to public by undercover reporters recently.
Even though cheats are
abhorred1 by so many examinees and
strictly2 banned by laws, parents are still interested in seeking for ghostwriters, even willing to pay millions to help their children enter the top universities in China.
What is the mindset of these students and parents?
Topic 2: Blood shortage in ChinaBlood alarm is going off in southern China’s Guangdong Province. With storage of blood in all types
bogging3 down in serious shortage, doctors and patients are struggling to look for blood resources and even seeking help from illegal market.
How serious is the situation? How are Chinese cities coping with the crisis?
Topic 3: Showing respect for the family elderlyA post office in China’s Henan province has adapted a set of pictures featuring multiple ways of showing respect for the family elderly into stamps.
It is a sheet of stamps with pictures of the "Modern 24 Stories of Respect for the Elderly".
The reason of starting with the word “Modern” is because there’s thye famous “Twenty four stories about Filial Piety”, which is an
analogue4 to the ancient ways passed on by Chinese tradition.
Topic 4: 20 Initiatives of Civil BehaviorsThe local civilization office of Suqian city in Jiangsu has recently published 20 initiatives of
civilized5 behaviors, listing some uncivilized behaviors with details. The “20 Initiatives of Civil Behaviors” is a result of voting by citizens in the city.
