Zhang Feng, a 23-year-old man from Zhengzhou, China, has developed a special kind of kungfu skill. He called it "Shaolin Sunshine Hand". It allows him to generate (产生) enough energy with his fists (拳头) to put out candles (蜡烛) up to three meters away.
I used to watch those Chinese kungfu films during the 80s and 90s. I used to love seeing kungfu actors make things far away with their fists, but at that time I knew it was not true. However, after I watched the video, I changed my idea. The video went very popular in China recently. It showed that the young man named Zhang Feng put out 15 candles in a line three meters away with air or energy generated by his flying fists.
You may say it's not true, and you're not the only one. But the young man actually invited two reporters from The Zhengzhou Evening News newspaper into his home to see his act and then film him doing it. The two reporters tried their best, but were only able to put out one of the 15 candles set 10 cm apart, and even blowing air didn't put out all the candles. Zhang Feng, on the other hand, put them all out just by throwing punches(挥拳猛击). The two reporters were in awe and couldn't explain how he did it. They said that Zhang Feng was a great Shaolin master.
Last Saturday, I went to a coffee shop to meet a friend of mine. I got there ten minutes earlier. So I ordered a cup of coffee and sat by the window, watching people. There were some boys playing football on the street, and a small boy was running after the ball as it rolled(滚过) across the road.
Suddenly, there came a car. It was going very fast. When the driver saw the boy in his way, he braked(刹车) hard. But it was too late... The small boy was lying on the street without moving. To everyone's surprise, the car didn't stop. It drove away quickly.
People ran to the boy. There was a cut on the boy's head and he lost a lot of blood(血液). The coffee shop owner telephoned the police. Soon a car 120 arrived and took the boy to the hospital. At 6:30 pm, the police arrived and started questioning people. About half an hour later, I was asked to go to the police station because I saw everything. I gave them all the information I knew because I really wanted them to catch the driver. I didn't leave the police station until 8:00 pm. After that I went home because I didn't want to talk to anyone.
The next day, the boy's parents called me to say thanks. They also told me their boy was fine and the driver was at the police station now.

Think about your favourite tween (8-12岁青少年) TV shows. Is there a girl on them who isn't pretty, or who doesn't worry about what she looks like?
According to a recent study, tween TV shows send the message that girls should be beautiful, no matter what other abilities or talents they have.
The American researchers studied 40 different popular tween TV shows from 2011. They found that most of the man or boy characters on the shows looked normal, but more than half of the female characters on the shows were described as “very beautiful”. The girls on the shows also worried more about what they looked like.
The researchers say this difference suggests (暗示) that “boys with common looks can still be a part of the story, but if you are a girl, you must be beautiful. ”
Some of the female characters on these shows were talented or acted bravely. But even if girls can do everything boys can do, they still have to look pretty.
Tweens are at an age when they are forming ideas about who they are and how they should look and act. It means these shows are likely to make them develop a very narrow (狭隘的) idea.
The researchers suggested that parents should help reduce the negative (负面的) influence of these shows by watching TV with their children and talking to them about what they see.
