Among all types of paper, Xuan paper has earned a special place in Chinese culture. The history of Xuan paper dates back to the Tang Dynasty. At that time, paper was produced in Xuancheng, Jingxian, Ningguo and Taiping. They were counties under the jurisdiction of Xuanzhou. Among them, the paper made in Jingxian was the best for its excellent qualities. Since most paper distribution centers were in Xuancheng, the paper was then known as Xuan paper.
Xuan paper is made from the bark of the blue sandalwood tree and rice straw. The process of making it includes many procedures like washing, boiling, and drying. Each step needs a lot of time and care. The final product is soft, thin but strong. It doesn’t tear easily and can take in a lot of ink. Because of these qualities, Xuan paper has been loved by painters and calligraphers. It helps them fully express their creative ideas and feelings.
Xuan paper is not only a material for art but also a cultural symbol. It represents the rich heritage of the arts in Chinese history. Even in today’s modern world, Xuan paper continues to hold an important position in Chinese art and cultural traditions.

For Chen Sheng, a young man in Meitan, Guizhou Province, caring for the elderly (老年人) is more than a job—it’s a calling in his heart. Chen Sheng was raised by his grandparents, and his dream was to take care of more elderly people. After graduating in 2017 with a degree in healthcare, Chen Sheng completed eight months of training in a local hospital and started to work in a nursing home.
In his early working days, what he met was more difficult than expected. He got up at 6 a.m. to help with morning tasks. He provided full bedside care, especially for the elderly who had to stay in bed all the time. Often, his day didn’t end until 11 p.m. He wanted to quit at first, but after a period, the warmth and trust he received from the elderly changed his mind.
Using his medical knowledge, Chen Sheng takes care of the elderly in a proper way, including physical examination, health guidance, advice on food and so on. “I arrived at the nursing home with lots of illnesses and could only lie in bed. After two months of good care by Chen Sheng, I was able to walk again by myself. Life here is very convenient, from satisfying daily services to good medical care, just like at home,” said Grandpa Li.
Besides medical care, Chen Sheng also gives emotional (情感的) support. He always offers comfort in time when a grandpa or a grandma is sad. Grandma Sun likes to talk with Chen Sheng every day and always shares the things she considers valuable (有价值的). Grandma Sun feels warm and happy because of Chen Sheng. Her family thanks him for his patience and great love.
As the needs for elderly care continue to grow, more and more young people, including those born after 2000, have come to work in the nursing home. They are making every effort to take good care of the elderly and make them live a happy life.

The way younger people think about spending money and their lifestyle is changing. A new idea called “reverse consumption” has appeared. This means people are no longer buying expensive things like brand-name bags or clothes. Instead, they care more about getting good value for their money.
Reverse consumption encourages people not to waste. Unlike traditional buying habits, it refuses to keep buying new products and pays more attention to the quality of products. This idea has become popular with younger people and has influenced their buying decisions. This change in spending habits shows that young people care about different things in life now.
Many young people are starting to realize that having lots of material goods doesn’t bring true happiness. They are more interested in personal growth, spiritual wealth, and the building of social relationships. Because of this, they pay more attention to their inner needs. Besides focusing on growing as a person, they also start to care about how their actions affect the environment.
This new way of thinking helps young people notice bigger problems like pollution and climate change. They know that wasteful spending can harm the environment, causing plenty of unnecessary waste and pollution, so they are trying to reduce their influence on the environment. It is changing what people do and making the world different.
In addition, the idea of reverse consumption is also bringing changes in society. Companies are being pushed to take social and environmental responsibility more seriously, and to think more about social interests when designing and making things.

A．Buying bags or clothes at lower prices.
B．Giving up spending money completely.
C．Saving money to buy more cheap things later.
