Young people in China took the purchase of Hanfu, the traditional clothing of China, to a new height and made it a huge hit.

An initiative (倡议) launched in late January by Xiaohongshu, a social media platform, invited users (upload) photos of videos of themselves wearing Hanfu at landmarks around the world. In the first two weeks of initiative, about 10,000 Xiaohongshu users shared their photos (take) from around 30 countries and regions worldwide. One user even posted photos from Antarctica. Many supporters held the belief that it was a strong sense of national pride inspired them to went Hanfu.

Hanfu, along other traditional forms of Chinese costume, has gained extreme popularity in recent years. Many universities in China have a Hanfu society with members (wear) Hanfu during traditional Chinese festivals. The "new Chinese style", combines traditional Chinese elements with modern designs, has developed into a fashion trend among the younger generations not only in China but also (global).

Analysts claim that the rise of "China chic demonstrates young Chinese people's (confident) in their own culture. Wearing Chinese-style costumes (reflect) the wearer's Eastern temperament and showcases Chinese aesthetics (美学) to the world.

Brenda's mother bit her lip to keep her from2. She remembered exactly how3 Brenda had been before the car accident. Patting the mother's shoulder, the nurse said in a low voice, "Don't worry. We have a4."

In the afternoon, two nurses5 Brenda into a room with light, posters and music. "Here's your new roomie, Annie Wiggle-Do," one nurse told a dark-haired girl in the other bed. "She's just beginning to get better, so please don't kill her with your6."

Nineteen-year-old Annie grinned (咧嘴笑). As soon as the nurses left, she jumped out of her bed and sat on the end of Brenda's.

"I lost my7 from bone cancer (癌症)," she announced. "You're8," Annie continued. "You've still got your knee. They had to take mine, see?"

As Brenda watched in shock, Annie hurried back to her bed. "My friends may come in any time now, so I have to get ready."

Annie reached up and9 her hair! There was no hair at all on her head!

Annie laughed aloud. "Oh, I forgot to10 you. The medicine they gave me to kill the cancer11 my hair, too. But check this out! My parents, my grandma and my friends all brought me wigs (假发)!"

"That's when I thought up ‘Annie Wiggle-Do,' Annie said. "Get it? ‘Any wig will do.' Annie Wiggle-Do?"

Laughing at her own joke, Annie12 a curly golden wig and arranged it on her head. She also13 to wear some make-up just before her friends burst into the room. Annie introduced Brenda to them all. Very soon, Brenda began14 with Annie and her friends. By the time the friends left, Brenda felt more like the15 Brenda.

On every smartphone there sits a tracker's paradise (乐园) of location data ready to be shared. And this tech is marketed as convenient, not frightening.

What is an acceptable level of online surveillance (监视)? I had assumed we all agreed that the ideal was none. A quick enquiry on my friends found that those who were, like me, in their 40s and older either had no idea they could use their phone in this way or had relatively little interest in doing so. But friends a decade or so younger all seem to be tracking one another at will. They don't find the idea of monitoring or being monitored in this way upsetting. They say it makes them feel safer.

It is just that they are realistic about the privacy that is available. They know that if you own a smartphone and don't want to disable useful things like maps, then your location is already being watched. If app creators, smartphone makers and ad companies are already tracking your location, then why not share the information with people you know?

If you want to start tracking the people you know, then there are some rules involved. It's fine to use tracking to check that a friend has got home safely at the end of a night out, for example, but not to surprise them on the street. And think carefully about whom you share data with.

Location tracking as a safety measure, particularly for elderly parents and children, is appealing. Once you grow comfortable sharing your location with your family and friends, perhaps one day you'll be happy to share it with your employer or even government agencies.

A. It is for family and close friends only, not new dates.

B. But the truth is how popular it is depends on your age.

C. Location sharing has been around for more than a decade.

D. The risk is that if you do it too often, it will be hard to turn around.

E. After all, no one will find it comfortable to be watched all the time.

F. This is not because they are blind to the importance of online privacy.

G. Location tracking is so precise that it can locate one person in a crowd.

Each of us has a place in nature where we go sometimes, even if it is torn down. We cannot be the last generation to have that place. At this rate, kids who miss the sense of wonder outdoors will not grow up to be protectors of natural landscapes. "If the decrease in park use continues across North America, who will defend parks against encroachment (蚕食)?" asks Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods.

Without having a nature experience, kids can turn out just fine, but they are missing out a huge enrichment of their lives. That applies to everything from their physical health and mental health, to stress levels, creativity and cognitive (认知的) skills. Experts predict modern kids will have poorer health than their parents — and a lack of outside play is surely part of it; research suggests that kids do better academically in schools with a nature exposure. Even a small outdoor experience can create wonder in a child. The three-year-old turning over his first rock realizes he is not alone in the world.

Kids are not responsible. They are just over-protected and frightened. It is dangerous outdoors from time to time, but when repetitive stress from computers is replacing breaking an arm as a childhood rite (仪式) during the children's growth, it can be more dangerous.

We should help regain for our kids some of the freedom and joy of exploring nature and taking friendship in fields and woods that cement love, respect and need for landscape. As parents, we should devote some of our energies to taking our kids into nature. This could yet be our greatest cause.
