To stop young people from smoking, the UK has made a new health law. It stops kids in the future from buying cigarettes (香烟).
Anyone born after December 31, 2008 will never be allowed to buy cigarettes in the UK. The government will also control the sale of tobacco and e-cigarettes. These products are bad for teenagers, and young people can easily get addicted to them.
At present, people under 18 in the UK cannot buy tobacco or e-cigarettes. As the age rule for buying cigarettes becomes stricter, today’s teenagers will grow up as the first generation (一代人) in Britain that never smokes. This is one of the most powerful anti-smoking rules around the world.
Government officials say this law will keep teenagers from bad habits and health problems caused by tobacco. The UK government hopes the rule will create a smoke-free generation and greatly improve public health in the future.
Smoking is very harmful to people’s health. People believe these rules will protect teens from serious illnesses that last for a long time. Since the 1970s, the number of smokers in the UK has dropped by nearly two thirds. Even so, about 6.4 million people still smoke now. Every year, 80,000 people die of illnesses caused by smoking. “The new rules are a turning point for public health,” an expert from Action on Smoking and Health said. She added, “Families everywhere can now feel safe. Their children can grow up without the harm of tobacco.”

On May 12, 2026, people visited the broken buildings of Xuankou Middle School in Wenchuan, Sichuan, to remember the 18th anniversary of the terrible earthquake. The earthquake in 2008 killed nearly 70,000 people and left many others missing. Across China, millions shared memories online. Some remembered long lines at blood donation (捐赠) stations. Others thought of the 15 soldiers (士兵) who jumped from planes to help. It was a day full of sadness, but also of love and courage.
Now working as a tour guide at Xuankou Middle School, Yin Xin was just a schoolgirl when the disaster came. She said that she and her classmates were in class, and thanks to their math teacher, they did not get hurt by the falling building. Her voice shook as she told the story. Today, many survivors have grown up and done amazing things. Lin Hao was a boy who saved two classmates. Now he is a village official and has a family. Niu Yu was trapped (被困) under stones for 3 days when she was 11. Now she runs half marathons with a man-made leg, becomes a local officer, and even writes a book. Their stories show that life can be strong after terrible events.
The towns hit by the disaster have been rebuilt. New houses, schools, and roads make life better. But the most important thing is how people keep the memory alive. One person shared his idea online, “Remembering disaster does not mean staying sad. It means valuing today and living well.” The survivors teach us that even after a huge disaster, we can find hope and move forward. May we always remember, and may the world stay safe.

UN Chinese Language Day is celebrated on Guyu or Grain Rain each year. Grain Rain is one of China’s 24 solar terms. Why did the UN pick this special date It comes from an old story about Cangjie, the man who created Chinese characters.
Before Cangjie’s time, ancient people used to feel 26 (confuse) about many natural events. They had no proper way to record daily things. 27 (thankful), Cangjie came up with a solution. He hoped to use his own ability to help people. One day, while he 28 (walk) through the fields, a sudden idea came to him. He realized he could use simple pictures to record everyday things. He studied animal footprints (足迹) and mountain shapes and then he used 29 (he) wisdom to create the earliest Chinese characters. Gradually, people learned basic writing skills and they got used to 30 (record) their lives every day.
It is said that when Cangjie finished his work, all of 31 sudden, sweet rain poured down and grain grew everywhere. That is how Grain Rain got its name. The UN chose this day 32 (honor) the birth of Chinese writing. 33 a result, UN Chinese Language Day is now celebrated worldwide. It also reminds us of Cangjie’s great achievement.
Today, more than 1.5 billion people speak Chinese in the world and many countries offer Chinese language 34 (class). The language carries China’s 5,000 years of history and unites Chinese people around the world. 35 we learn this old story, we may not fully understand the beauty of our mother language.

When you think of kung fu masters, you probably imagine a Chinese person in ancient clothes. But have you ever seen an American kung fu master with long hair and a long beard, wearing a black Taoist robe (袍子) His name is Jake Pinnick.
Jake is from Illinois, a small town in the United States. When he was young, he loved watching Chinese kung fu movies and respected famous actors like Bruce Lee. He became crazy about Chinese martial arts (武术). In 2010, he decided to fly to China to learn real kung fu, though he knew no Chinese at all.
Jake went to Wudang Mountain in Hubei and joined a local martial arts school. The training was really challenging. He had to start practicing at 5 a.m. all year round. Jake was not good at sports, so he often made mistakes and wanted to give up. Still, his love for kung fu pushed him to keep going.
Five years later, he finished all the training. Only fewer than half of his foreign classmates stuck it out. He learned many kung fu skills and became the successor (接班人) of Wudang Sanfeng School. Besides kung fu, he also learned Chinese music, calligraphy and tea culture. As he said, “I came to China because of martial arts, but I stayed because of the culture behind it.”
Now 36, Jake has lived on Wudang Mountain for over 16 years. He has a warm Chinese family and got China’s permanent residence card (永久居住卡) in 2025. When people call him a “foreigner”, Jake always smiles and says, “Don’t call me ‘laowai’. Call me ‘laonei’.” To him, China is already his real home.
