In November 1979, pupils in England were able to watch a new TV program called Monkey. Most of them were hearing this story for the first time. However, this story is not new to Chinese children. The Monkey King or Sun Wukong is the main character in the traditional Chinese book Journey to the West.
The Monkey King is not just any normal monkey. In fact, he sometimes does not even look like a monkey! This is because he can make 72 changes to his shape and size, turning himself into different animals and objects. But unless he can hide his tail, he cannot turn himself into a man. To fight bad people, the Monkey King uses a magic stick. Sometimes he can make the stick so small that he can keep it in his ear. At other times he is able to make it big and long.
The Monkey King has excited the children of China for many years. And as soon as the TV program came out more than 30 years ago, Western children became interested in reading this story because the clever Monkey King keeps fighting to help the weak and never gives up.

Imagine living your life like this: When you wake up in the morning, you say “Open the window” to the computer and it opens the window. The sunshine is shining and the birds are singing. Then you finish breakfast and sit in front of your desk and begin to have classes through the Internet. With the help of building a smart city, this may become true one day.
A smart city uses digital technologies (数字科技) such as the Internet to improve city planning, save resources (资源) and make our lives easier. For example, people live in smart cities, where there is Internet almost everywhere. They can do many things at home, such as booking train tickets, paying water bills and shopping online. What a convenient life it is!
Now China is making some cities smarter. For example, Guiyang is going to build free Wi-Fi in the whole city. Tianjin plans to start a smart city program to solve traffic problems. Guangzhou is creating a smart city, so everyone in the city should play a role in creating a smart city.

With most Chinese people speaking Mandarin, or putonghua, some local dialects, or fangyan, are in danger of disappearing. To save them, the Chinese government started the Chinese Language Resources Protection Project in 2015.
This project studied how people talk in 1,712 places. Their languages included 103 dialects that are almost gone. Over five years, more than 350 universities and research groups joined in, along with over 4,500 experts and more than 6,000 dialect speakers.
This project has helped China to build the world’s largest library of language resource. Now it has created an online dialect library, where people can learn dialects from over 5.6 million recordings and over 5 million videos. At present, the project has entered its second stage. It plans to create digital tools like apps and mobile dictionaries to help people learn dialects.
Why is it important to protect the dialect culture? According to British expert Harold Palmer, dialects are the key to keeping local cultures, because they faithfully (忠诚地) show the history, the beliefs and customs of an area.
Zhang Hongming, another expert, talked about the worrying situation of dialects. “For more than 10 years, in the Wu dialect areas such as Shanghai and Suzhou, children aged 6 to 15 can understand the dialect, but hardly speak it. And young people above 15 years old sometimes speak it, but not very well. If this continues, the dialect may disappear.” he said.
So, not only the country but each of us should do our part to protect dialect culture.
