4 . A video of a German man named Uwe Brutzer who opened a bakery (面包店) in China using workers with hearing disability spread on social media on Tuesday, touching many Chinese netizens. The video has had over 30,000 comments (评论) and over 110 million views. After the video was published, Brutzer’s bakery was soon crowded with people all over the country.
Born in Germany, Uwe Brutzer and his wife came to China as part of a program by Hunan Disabled Person’s Federation to help children with hearing disability in 2002. “I was looking for a chance to help disabled people and I saw this program,” said Brutzer.
They decided to stay after spending some time with children here. To better help children in need, they learned Chinese sign language. Then they decided to open a store. “At first we sold flowers. Then we found that a bakery might be a better choice because we could make more money. So we opened this one in 2011. I hired a professional German baker and invited her to China to teach my students for four years,” Brutzer said. A child they helped years ago is now one of the workers in the bakery.
The cut in income was the biggest challenge for Brutzer during the COVID-19 outbreak. He had to close the store for safety reasons but he still paid all the workers as usual.
“I want to stay in China as long as I can and teach more and more disabled people so that they can make a living here.” Brutzer added.

6 . Jennifer Rocha decided to take her college graduation photos in the same vegetable fields in Coachella, California, where she has worked with her parents since she was in junior high school.
“I’m proud where I come from. It’s a huge part of who I am,” says Rocha, who graduated from the University of California, San Diego on Saturday. “I wanted to go back to the fields with my parents because I know I wouldn’t have the degree if it were not for them. They sacrificed (牺牲) their backs, their sweat, their early mornings, late afternoons, working cold winters, hot summers just to give me and my sisters an education.
The pictures, in which she’s wearing full graduation dress and picking vegetables along-side her parents, have struck a chord (弦) across social media.
Rocha began working in the fields when she was a junior in high school. Her mom and dad had both worked in the fields of Michoacán, Mexico, as young children before coming to the US. And when they arrived, they did not have the opportunity to go to college, Rocha recalls. “Instead, they had to return to the fields. And when we were older they started taking us so we could learn a lesson about the value of higher education,” she says. “I continued to work with my parents through college during winter, spring and summer breaks.”
Rocha, who majored in law, has already found her dream job in a law firm. She says she’ll take this moment to encourage other young people to set clear goals for themselves regardless of circumstances.
“It’s not impossible,” she says. “The fact that your parents work in the fields doesn’t mean that you aren’t going to be successful. It’s going to be hard, but everything is possible. And never forget where you come from.”

8 . People will say firmly their childhood memory is real, offering amazing detail as proof that it must be, and getting upset if you suggest they are wrong.
But, for years, scientists have questioned whether these memories could actually be true, given what we know about neuroscience (神经科学) and the brain. The human brain grows and develops in clear stages. As it grows and creates and adapts, so different developmental stages are reached. These stages are the result of millions of years of evolution (进化). Now, finally, a study has proved this. Researchers from Memorial University in Newfoundland, Canada, reviewed decades worth of data to understand the earliest age at which lasting memories form and they have believed that it is around 30 months.
So people who think they remember something from when they were a baby are, I am afraid, mistaken. The problem with early memories is that they are very easy to fabricate, which is what I did.
I have a vivid image of standing in the garden, my mum holding a flower and laughing. It’s one of my first memories. I must have been 18 months old because we moved from that house before I was two. I could swear it was real.
Years ago, when I shared this memory with my mum, she shook her head and produced a photo. It showed her in a garden, laughing and holding a flower. But it was taken three years before I was born. That beautiful memory is a work of fiction (虚构): an old photo that used to hang on the wall.
I’ll admit to feeling shocked and robbed when I realized this memory was entirely false. It made me question other things I remember as a child, too. A study into this event published a few years ago found that around 40 per cent of us say that we have memories from before the age of two. But it’s the mind playing tricks on us taking old stories or photos and turning them into a memory.
While it can be disappointing to realize that a recollection you hold so dear might not be true, it does provide a good lesson in how changeable memory can be.
