Now, people take trips by watching live streaming (直播) on Tiktok, Bilibili and others. This is called “cloud tourism (云旅游)”.
Zha Liguo is a guide (导游). During the May Day holiday, Zha took a group of visitors to Mount Huang. A lot of people joined him by watching his live streaming on their phones. It was not Zha’s first trip to Mount Huang. Last year, he stayed there for over 280 days. He showed the beautiful scenery (风景) and other interesting things in the villages near the mountain on Tiktok.
A lot of people are interested in Zha’s live streaming, so Zha has lots of followers on Tiktok. “Many people get bored with staying at home but they have no time to go out. I enjoy myself every time I enjoy the beautiful scenery, so I want other people to enjoy it,” Zha said.
Usually, people need to spend much time going out for a pleasant trip. But they often finish their trip quickly. So they can’t really have a good time. The “cloud tourism” really helps them a lot. Also, the “cloud tourism” is very convenient (方便的). Some people dislike taking a long trip. They think it’s tiring for them to decide how to go, where to live or what to eat. What’s more, the “cloud tourism” also makes a difference to a place’s business (生意). People like to buy things while watching live streaming.

Have you ever been to Thailand? It is a country in Southeast Asia. I’ve been in Thailand for a few days with my parents. We are here for a holiday.
Now we are staying in Bangkok (曼谷). It is the capital of Thailand and it is a very interesting place to visit. Yesterday we visited some places of interest in the city. They are great! This morning we went shopping. Bangkok is a wonderful place to shop for jewelry (珠宝) and clothes. My mother bought a nice necklace (项链). My father and I bought some fashionable T-shirts.
Thailand is called “Land of Smiles” because people here are very friendly. And it’s true! When we eat in the restaurants in Bangkok, the waiters are really nice and they are always smiling. Thai food is delicious, but it is sometimes a little spicy for me. You can also get Chinese food here because a lot of Chinese people came to live in Bangkok many years ago. Chinese food is very good, and it isn’t as spicy as Thai food. Our American food can also be found in Bangkok, however, I don’t eat it. You know, I’d like to try new things when I travel.
The weather has been very hot. Yesterday it rained and got a little cooler. But today it’s hot again.
Yours,
Mary

【推荐1】We should start thinking about how to improve our lifestyle when we are younger. Here are three simple habits to be healthier.
Take care of your teeth
It may sound surprising, but there is a connection between brushing teeth and health.
Wondering if you’re brushing enough? A Scottish study found that people who brushed their teeth twice a day had a lower heart attack (侵袭) risk than those who only brushed once a day.
Stay active
Telomeres (端粒) are a part of people’s DNA. They are getting shorter and shorter as you age. People with high physical activity levels have telomeres that are nine years “younger” than those who are so-called couch potatoes. High physical activity levels mean 30 minutes of exercise every day increased life length by three years.
Get good sleep
Sleep is like a “cleaning” for your brain. But not sleeping too much is also important. Getting less than seven or eight hours of sleep can cause an increased chance of death, but sleeping more than 11 hours a night is related to an even larger increase.
Try to keep some habits that help you sleep better, such as having a fixed bedtime and removing electronics from the bedroom.

Beijing Opera (京剧), more commonly known as Peking Opera to westerners (西方人), is seen as the national opera (国粹) of China. Having a history of about 200 years, it is regarded (被认为) as a culture symbol of China.
In 1790, Kunqu from Anhui came to Beijing. Its actors absorbed (吸收) Beijing dia-lect vocabulary (方言词汇) into their performances (表演), which drew people’s attention. So Kunqu was seen as the main opera form(形式) in Beijing .
In 1828, Qinqiang Opera began to appear on Beijing stages (舞台). By sharing and combining (结合) with the AnhuiOpera, this Qinqiang Opera gradually (逐渐地) became the other parent of the Beijing Opera.
From 1845 to 1894, Beijing Opera got a rapid development. There were many excel- lent performing actors, such as Mei Lanfang, Shang Xiaoyun and Xun Huisheng. Among (在……中) them, MeiLanfang was the first to introduce (介绍) Beijing Opera to foreigners (外国人) and gave many successful performances in foreign countries .
In ancient times, Beijing Opera was performed mostly on stage in the open air or teahouses. Because the orchestra (管弦乐队) played loudly, the performers developed a style of singing that could be heard by anyone. People like to watch Beijing Opera because it is a good combination of singing, dancing, acting and acrobatics (杂技动作).
| Roles ◆“Sheng” are the leading male (男性的) actors. ◆“Dan” is the general term in Beijing Opera for female roles. ◆“Jing” are the face-painted roles. ◆“Chou” refers to (指代) clowns characterized by a white patch (白斑) on their noses. |
Beijing Opera is China’s national opera and it is full of Chinese cultural traditions.

In early spring, the changing temperature usually makes a number of Chinese people uncomfortable. However, with the coming of Guyu, the blue sky and gentle winds would finally stay. Falling usually on or around April 20 every year, Guyu is the sixth of the 24 solar terms (节气). It means that a lively summer begins and people get busy from now on.
Sow (播种) grains
This is an important period of the growth of grains. The ancient Chinese already knew that as Guyu comes, the weather will become warm enough for sowing. The farmers usually catch the chance to plant rice, corn and beans. Hope for safety and harvest.
For those living near the sea, they will hold some ceremonies on Guyu hoping for safety as well as harvest during the coming fishing season.
Watch the peony (牡丹)
It’s also a great time to see the peony, which is known as “the Queen of All Flowers” in Chinese culture. As a result, watching peonies becomes a happy activity for many people. The flower is said to be the favorite of Empress (女皇) Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty, who was the only woman ruler in Chinese history.
Pick tea leaves
Tea leaves picked before Guyu are among the best tea leaves. People believe that your eyes can be brighter when you drink the tea picked on the day of Guyu. So the habit of drinking tea at this time of year has become a tradition in some places of China.
