On March 3^rd, 2022, the 2021 Touching China annual people award ceremony aired on CCTV. Ten inspirational role models were on the list. Su Bingtian is one of them.

Known as the 1 Chinese man, Su Bingtian made history and brought an unforgettable moment for the world in the summer of 2021.

On Aug 1 of that year, Su set an Asian-record of 9.83 seconds in the Tokyo Olympics Men's 100m semifinals, which made him the first Chinese runner to enter the final in the 2.

For a long time, there was an idea that Asian people were not physically built to succeed in sprinting. Su broke this idea and inspired many people.

But the way to success was 3 easy for Su. Because of an injury (受伤), Su had to stop running for several years. He even planned to retire in 2017. But the call to challenge himself brought Su back to the track. To increase his strength, Su trained even harder than before.

He realized that finishing the semifinal in 4 10 seconds would earn him the chance to enter the final competition. To encourage himself, Su set a personal goal of 9.89 seconds and made the number his personal password for his phone and computer. 5, his efforts paid off.

We feel angry or guilty (内疚的) about the things we did or did not achieve, about the things we cannot have, and many other things. It seems that everyone carries their own bad emotions (情绪). But neither guilt 1 anger can help us. Over time, they can be heavy weights on our 2.

These bad emotions don't do anything good for us 3. So you might ask yourself-is it possible to put down this heavy burden (负担) and give yourself a 4？It is quite possible. Start by actually looking at your feelings. How do they get inside of us? Why do we carry them for so long instead of putting them down? Can we live 5 them?

By thinking about our bad emotions, we can find healthy ways to 6 them. Unhealthy behaviors are not the way to do this. They provide no relief. Instead, there are better ways to handle them. One of the best ways is forgiveness (原谅).

Forgiveness is a powerful tool. We should forgive 7 first. We shouldn't keep bad emotions inside. We must also forgive others who have made us guilty or angry. This is not always easy. But 8 we learn to forgive ourselves, it becomes easier to forgive others as well.

There is nothing good about carrying years of emotional burdens. By forgiving ourselves and others, we can put down our burdens and feel better about ourselves. 9 you do this, you will start to feel a lot lighter. Years of heaviness will be magically lifted! You'll start to feel like you have more 10 and you'll be much happier with your life.

Do you know anyone born in the Year of the Tiger? What's their personality like? Are they brave, strong and determined? If so, then they are a typical "tiger".

In Chinese culture, tigers are seen as the king of all animals. They stand for power, energy and protection. Tigers are seen as fearless animals, so that's why in China you can see pictures of tigers on the walls of houses and temples to ward off (抵御) danger and disasters.

Tigers have an important cultural meaning not just in China, but across Asia where they live in the wild. For example, in South Korea, the animal is a symbol of justice, humanity and righteousness in local folk tales. Both the 1986 Seoul Asian Games and the 1988 Seoul Summer Olympics used Hodori, a friendly cartoon tiger, as the mascot. A tiger is also on the logo of the South Korea national soccer team.

In the West, tigers are also seen as powerful animals. And we often use "tiger" in English. If we say someone "works like a tiger", we mean he or she works hard. If you want someone to calm down, you can say to them "easy, tiger". Another famous phrase is "eye of the tiger", which means having strength. There are also some other phrases about tigers, such as "a tiger can't change its stripes", "paper tiger" and "have a tiger by the tail".

Over 100 years ago, the future leaders of the Communist Party of China (CPC), including Chen Duxiu, founded the first communist organization in Shanghai. At that time, many young people went to the office of La Jeunesse (《新青年》) magazine -the center of the New Culture Movement- to look for advice on how to save the country and the people. Chen, founder of the magazine and leader of the movement, gave them a warm welcome.

In August 1920, Chen asked Yu Xiusong to start the first Socialist Youth League (SYL, 社会主义青年团). Yu became secretary of the league.

To educate more young people, the league built the institute and offered language courses. As well as learning foreign languages，students would also study The Communist Manifesto (《共产党宣言》), which paved the way for the birth of the CPC. Its translator Chen Wangdao, then also a professor of Fudan University, delivered lectures.

In the 1920s, revolutionary pioneers including Mao Zedong established SYLs in key cities. The first national congress of the Socialist Youth League of China was held in Guangzhou from May 5 to 10 in 1922, marking its official founding. In 1925, the organization changed its name to the Communist Youth League of China (CYLC).

Almost every year in May, hundreds of teenagers gather at Tuanyida Square in Guangzhou. They take an oath (宣誓) to become members of the CYLC. The square, now a site for patriotic (爱国的) education for young people, is where the CYLC was born.

Now, the CYLC national congress takes place every five years. The latest was held in Beijing in 2018. This year marks the 100th anniversary of the founding of the CYLC. The CYLC was born during the war and got over a lot of difficulties in the past century.

Most of us are used to using jet hand dryers (喷射式干手器) in public restrooms. They're surely very convenient- all we need to do is to hold up our hands for a few seconds until they're dry. And more importantly, they're supposed to be hygienic (卫生的).

However, a new study published in the journal Hospital Infection found that jet hand dryers actually spread more dangerous bacteria (细菌) than paper towels.

In the study, two restrooms in each of three different hospitals in the UK, France and Italy were required to provide both jet air dryers and paper towels for people to use. But on certain days, only either the hand dryer or the paper towel dispenser (自动出纸机) was available to use.

The scientists found that when only the hand dryer was available, the amount of bacteria in the restrooms was 27 times higher than on other days.

According to study leader Mark Wilcox, an expert in medical microbiology (微生物学) at Leeds University, UK, air dryers spread harmful bacteria all over the room. This means that if people use these dryers, they're more likely to pick up bacteria.

At the same time, however, this raises the question of why these bacteria exist in the first place if people are washing their hands after using the restroom.

"The problem starts because some people do not wash their hands properly," Wilcox told The Telegraph. In other words, poor hand-washing leads to a large amount of bacteria being left on your hands.

On April 16, Shenzhou XIII astronauts Zhai Zhigang, Wang Yaping and Ye Guangfu safely came back to Earth from the Tiangong space station.  Let's take a look!

Speedy return

The mission set a new speed record. When the Shenzhou Ⅻ came back from the space station in 2021, it took about 28 hours. This time, Shenzhou ⅩⅢ cut down the number of orbits (环绕地球圈数) from 11 to five.

Landing upright

The re-entry capsule (返回舱) landed upright (直立). This landing position is rare in China's space flight history.To achieve this, astronauts must let go of the parachute (降落伞) with precise timing. Landing upright makes sure that astronauts have the softest landing.

Keeping seated

But they still needed to sit on chairs. The long space journey changed their bodies. Their muscles and bones became weaker. In the next few months, they will gradually get used to Earth's gravity.

What color is a tennis ball? Ask your classmates, and they might give you some  answers.

The Atlantic asked 30, 000 people this question. Among the people surveyed, 52 percent said tennis balls are green, 42 percent said yellow, and 6 percent said  else.

According to the International Tennis Federation, tennis balls  yellow. So, why do most people say that they're green?

When we  see an object in natural light, our brains recognize its true color. Even if the object in different kinds of light later, our brains can still tell its true color.  call this color constancy (色彩恒常性). For example, we know that China's flag is red. When we see it during sunset or under purple light, we still know that it is red, even if it looks like a different color.

However, the color of a tennis ball is not as pure (纯的) as the flag. It appears to be a mixture of yellow, a "warm" color, and green, a "cool" color.

The US-based magazine says that when  brains try to figure out what color the ball is, some people ignore (忽略) cool colors like green, blue and purple. So they see the ball as yellow.  ignore warm colors, such as red, yellow and orange. They see the ball as green.

It is not just tennis balls that make such confusion. In 2015, a girl  a picture of a dress online. Some people said the dress was black and blue  other people said it was gold and white. They had different opinions based on whether they ignored cool or warm colors.
