  Topics and answers in the small class of ant manor on December 3 rd

  Topic: When blind people write Braille, what do they usually do?

  A, write from right to left

  B, write from left to right

Correct answer: Write from right to left.

  Analysis: When writing Braille, first fix the Braille board on the Braille paper, and then write from right to left. When writing is finished, turn the Braille paper upside down, and then touch it from left to right, and you can just feel the bumps just written in Braille and pen.

  Writing Braille for the blind is the opposite of reading Braille, because Braille is expressed by bumps, but when writing, it is necessary to use a special "pen" to make a groove, and then turn it over and read the raised part. Therefore, reading Braille and writing Braille are not exactly the same, which is a bit like writing in the opposite direction.

Zhengzhou, which was hit by a rainstorm for 24 hours: "The water depth is nearly one meter, and no one can save the store …"

  Cctv news(Reporter Sun Xiaoyuan): No one expected that it would rain so heavily. On the afternoon of July 20th, the rainfall in Zhengzhou, Henan Province dropped for one month in one hour. Some people were trapped in the subway, some people looked at the tall buildings, some people waded forward, some people fell into the water and never stood up … …

  On this day, floods poured into the subway, sewers surged up, cars floated on the streets, culvert water accumulated into rivers, and words such as flood control, emergency rescue and rescue quickly rushed to the hot search.

  In this city hit by heavy rain, no one can stay out of it. CCTV reporters interviewed several Zhengzhou citizens, and their deepest memories still stayed on July 20th. These experiences and feelings from ordinary people pieced together and restored the storm, and also recorded the life trajectories of some people who were quietly changed.

On July 20, a rainstorm occurred in Zhengzhou. A passerby looked up.

  "The outdoor water is nearly one meter deep, and no one can save the store … …”

  On July 20, the rain hit my face and it hurt.

  Zheng Yanhui of Erqi District, Zhengzhou, was hit by a hot search because he was hit by a guitar in a rainstorm. Weibo fans soared by 800, and praise and abuse poured in.

  He told CCTV reporters that in fact, ordinary people can’t stand the hot search. Playing the guitar in the rainstorm that day was just a way of teasing themselves, but I didn’t expect to attract so much attention.

  On the afternoon of the 20th, Zheng Yanhui waded through the knee-deep water. Pedestrians shouldered the road and avoided the electric car falling in the rain. When he hurried to the store, his head was covered.

  "The water in the store has exceeded the calf, and the sewer has started to surge back. The whole person is desperate."

  Looking at the mess all over the house, he didn’t know what he should do. "When I suddenly remembered Chopin’s piano music, I stood in the water and played Richard’s Dream Wedding. At that time, I especially wanted to call names … … Too weak. "

  "Why the Wedding of Dreams?" "Because this is the only song!" He laughed.

Zheng yanhui

  Zheng Yanhui lived in Zhengzhou intermittently for 11 years, and ran a western restaurant, mainly cooking French food. On the morning of the 20th, he simply fried two dishes and finished the Qixi menu, which was about to arrive soon.

  At one o’clock in the afternoon, he looked out of the window, and it was raining harder and harder. Suddenly, I remembered that I had asked an apprentice to come over for an interview in the afternoon. He felt a little guilty and decided to take the risk to meet someone and prepare to retreat.

  He told the CCTV reporter that when he received the person, the water in the culvert of the Second Ring Road had not passed the thigh root, almost 80 cm deep.

  At 3 o’clock in the afternoon, he returned to the store to prepare for emergency rescue. "The camera frame and glasses have all been burnt off. Several other stores began to enter the water, and the scene was out of control. The water level rose too fast and the sandbags were completely useless. "

  The tables, chairs and benches in Zheng Yanhui’s shop were all soaked in water. When he hurriedly transported wooden furniture and a bookcase of books, the water on the ground was more than 30 cm deep. At this time, the big brother in the supermarket next door is also getting confused: snacks, drinks, cigarettes, lighters … … All soaked in water, I don’t know which one to save.

  A friend called to ask him to help look at his shop. "At that time, the outdoor water was nearly one meter deep, and no one could save the shop." He said.

  The joys and sorrows of human beings are not interlinked. However, in the face of extreme weather, there must be some resonance. When all the habits are suddenly interrupted, the influence of heavy rain in Henan has gradually risen to a serious and heavy topic.

  Surgery from delay to emergency transfer, "I don’t want to accompany my mother … …”

  On July 20th, Dongsheng, who lives in Zhongyuan District, made three trips back and forth from home to the store. He usually walked for about 10 minutes, and he walked for nearly an hour.

  On the same day, Dongsheng’s mother was preparing for surgery in Zhengda First Affiliated Hospital. In the morning, he rushed to the hospital early. By noon, the rain was getting bigger and bigger, and the neighbors of the store called to tell him that there was a power outage in the store.

  He told the doctor, glanced at his mother who was infusion, and hurried to the shop.

Dongsheng and his mother

Dongsheng and his mother

  Dongsheng told the CCTV reporter that her mother’s heart was not very good, but she still planted a few acres of land at home. She just finished the summer harvest and sold the wheat, ready to come and treat the disease.

  Dongsheng came out of rural Henan at the age of 13, and went to Jiangsu, Fujian and other places to work. He moved to many construction sites but didn’t earn much money. So far, he still has more than 30,000 yuan in wages to come back. Castroni, a hot pot which he rented last year, is located in the North Street of Coal Warehouse in Zhongyuan District.

  The first time I went to the store in the rain, the water in the street had not passed my thigh. He looked at the surging water in the roadside sewer and tried to move forward step by step with experience.

  "To tell you the truth, I was a little scared at that time. Cars are floating on the street, and the manhole covers on the road don’t know where they have been washed. "

  Opening the shutter door of the shop, the water has been poured into the shop, and it is raining hard. He tried to sweep it out with a broom, but it was too late. There is no way, he can only close the shutter door and return to the hospital, bypassing a lot of roads. When he arrived at the hospital, the hospital called and said that the rain was seriously affected and the operation was delayed, so his family members should not come over for the time being.

  At this time, Dongsheng’s sister Yanling had just finished collecting the fruit stand and was going to the hospital to accompany her mother for surgery. She told the CCTV reporter that when she went out, the water was about 50 cm deep, and the bigger she went down, the car could not be driven for 5 minutes. She got off the bus to check that the water depth had exceeded the root of her thigh. Dongsheng and the hospital called her at the same time and told her not to go there.

  "After hearing the news, the whole person was blinded and didn’t know what to do." Yanling can only return to the fruit shop. When she opened the door, the water in the shop was already more than one meter deep.

  Dongsheng’s hot pot Castroni suffered serious losses, and all five freezers were flooded. Walking is not, and there is nothing you can do without walking. He has been soaking in the water until ten o’clock in the evening. "I can only give up."

  He told the CCTV reporter that if the store is not damaged, it can at least maintain a basic livelihood, but there is no way to deal with this natural disaster … …

  At 12 o’clock in the evening on the 21st, the Affiliated Hospital of Zheng Dayi called. Because of the rainstorm, normal operation could not be guaranteed, Dongsheng’s mother needed to be transferred overnight. Later, Dongsheng’s sister Yanling sent a circle of friends: I have unspeakable pain in my heart, so I don’t want to go to the hospital to accompany my mother … …

  After the founding of New China, there have been five provincial heavy rainfall processes in Henan history, and the most extreme one was the "July 8" torrential rain. According to Su Aifang, deputy director of Henan Meteorological Observatory, the intensity of the rainstorm process has reached a very strong level compared with before.

  On July 20th, the maximum hourly rainfall in Zhengzhou exceeded the historical extreme of hourly rainfall in Chinese mainland, and the rainfall in one hour was equivalent to that in Beijing for half a year.

  Three trees fell within a kilometer. "Zhengzhou has lived for 30 years, and this is the biggest rain."

  Li Sixin, a citizen, has lived in Zhengzhou for 30 years. He said that he had seen many rainstorms, but July 20th was the biggest one.

Li sixin

  On the morning of 20th, he went for a walk in Zijingshan Park as usual, and found that the covered bridge of the park was flooded, and the garden pumped the water to Jinshui River with a water pump. During the rainstorm, the water level of Jinshui River soared again, and the Jinshui River in front of Li Sixin was "choppy".

  He told CCTV reporters that he could walk on the road when he went, and when he came back at noon, the water on the road began to deepen, and cars broke down in the water one after another.

  At about 1 pm, when passing through the intersection of huanghe road and Jingba Road, a paulownia tree collapsed in front of his eyes. The trunk of the tree just hit the roof of the No.63 bus, and the bus could not move. Fortunately, it was narrowly missed and its branches were not inserted into the car.

  Less than a kilometer away, three paulownia trees were blown down by the wind one after another and lay across the road. "Those trees were planted in the 1950s." He repeated it three times and sighed.

  Back home, Li Sixin has been in a state of losing contact during the most rainy hours. A few hours after the communication was interrupted, all his messages came from the push messages of various apps and the windows at home that could see outside.

  "I heard that the deepest water in Metro Line 5 reached people’s necks, and there was a landslide in a subway under construction in the East District, and the rain poured backwards … …” He kept asking and verifying.

  "The bridge deck of Xintong Bridge on Beierqi Road collapsed in the rainstorm. Six patrol members in Jinshui District have been on the scene and have not eaten from morning to afternoon, because there is no food around, which is very hard." He said.

  Because of the heavy rain, the elevator was temporarily closed. On July 21st, Li Sixin came down from the 19th floor and ran back and forth four times. "I am 57 years old and my legs are sore."

  "Even if you live on the 27th floor, you have to walk down the stairs." He added.

  The rations at home are running out, so he has to go downstairs to buy food. In the morning, tomatoes cost 1.60 yuan a catty, but in the afternoon they have risen to 2.50 yuan a catty, but in his view, a small price increase is acceptable.

  Li Sixin walked around the supermarket and found that the price of pork did not increase significantly, but some citizens were still snapping up instant noodles. Because of the network interruption, many people are waiting in line to pay their bills with cash or POS machines.

  He told the CCTV reporter that in this rainstorm, except for the elevator, there was no power cut, water cut and gas cut at home, but the network communication signal was intermittent.

  On the afternoon of the 21st, the rain cleared in Jinshui District of Zhengzhou. Li Sixin sent a photo to CCTV reporter, "Everything comes down to daily life". Perhaps, the water and mud deep in the corner of the city have not receded, but the city is gradually recovering from the traffic and familiar noise.

Shared office is sought after, and there are huge business opportunities to help office buildings "destock"

  Xinhua News Agency, Chengdu, November 6 (Yang Wenhao, Hu Xu) Shared office is booming under the wave of sharing economy and double innovation. Many shared office enterprises, including SOHO China, have recently set their sights on Chengdu. With a large number of projects landing one after another, the long-term surplus office market in Chengdu has also ushered in a "warm winter".

  WORK+ joint office space located in Tianfu New Valley, Chengdu High-tech Zone, has become one of the hottest shared office projects in Chengdu at present because of cutting-edge and fashionable decoration design and housekeeper-style intimate service. Its two-story space of nearly 8,000 square meters provides more than 800 workstations, which have served more than 50 small and micro enterprises.

  WORK+ is just a microcosm of shared office being sought after in Chengdu. In recent years, Chengdu’s "double innovation" policy has been further promoted, entrepreneurial groups have been growing, and a large number of small and micro enterprises have emerged rapidly. Start-up companies have small teams and insufficient funds, and the shared office with relatively high cost performance has become their first choice.

  The increase in demand immediately leads to the expansion of supply. Many well-known shared office service providers, such as Dream Plus, Chivalrous Island, Sugar Cube Town and Walnut, have settled in various office buildings in Chengdu. The latest entrant is SOHO 3Q shared office project under SOHO China.

  Pan Shiyi, chairman of SOHO China, believes that from the perspective of market acceptance, Chengdu’s main population has been on the same starting line as first-tier cities, and there are huge business opportunities for sharing office.

  According to the data released by Colliers International, a real estate service company, the vacancy rate of Chengdu office market has remained above 30% for a long time due to long-term oversupply. In the third quarter of this year, although two new projects brought a huge supply of nearly 100,000 square meters, the average vacancy rate increased slightly by only 0.1% from the previous month.

  In this regard, Colliers International reported that with the continuous optimization of the economic and investment environment, the upgrading of industrial structure and the expansion of the consumer market in Chengdu, a large number of domestic and foreign enterprises have expanded here, especially the rapid development of science and technology and joint office industries, which has led to a significant increase in the cases of bulk leasing and rent expansion in the Grade A office market.

Rectify the ills of illegal fund-raising from the source

On February 4th, the State Council released the Opinions on Further Improving the Prevention and Disposal of Illegal Fund-raising. The "Opinions" put forward the regulatory concept of "combining prevention with crackdown, cracking down early and cracking down on small ones", clarified the regulatory responsibilities for preventing and handling illegal fund-raising, based on establishing a long-term mechanism, and tried to solve the problem of illegal fund-raising flooding from the source by perfecting relevant laws and regulations. The reporter of Economic Daily interviewed relevant experts to interpret the Opinions.

Governance according to law, classification and policy

Experts believe that the Opinions fully embodies the concept of "managing illegal fund-raising according to law" and establishes the principle of classified policy.

Li Aijun, a professor at the School of Civil and Commercial Economics of China University of Political Science and Law, said that according to the requirements of the Opinions, the governance of illegal fund-raising should obey the established laws, and he also proposed that the established laws and related legislation in China should be revised in time according to the characteristics of illegal fund-raising. "At present, illegal fund-raising methods are being refurbished to avoid laws and regulations, which leads to the lag of existing laws and regulations. Perfecting the relevant legal system is an important way to cure illegal fund-raising. "

The cases of illegal fund-raising are complex, involving a wide range of aspects and strong policies. In order to effectively resolve contradictions and strive to achieve the organic unity of law enforcement and social effects, the Opinions have established the principle of strict handling according to law and classified policies.

Liu Weibo, the presiding judge of the Second Criminal Court of the Supreme People’s Court, said that according to the requirements of the Opinions, it is necessary to strictly distinguish between illegal fund-raising and legal private lending, and between criminal offences and administrative violations. If illegal fund-raising or illegal fund-raising does not constitute a crime according to law, and production and business activities can continue, it is necessary to actively help and guide enterprises to take the initiative to rectify and avoid expanding losses. At the same time, we must adhere to the criminal policy of combining leniency with severity, severely crack down on major criminal cases of illegal fund-raising in key areas, key regions and key links, and be lenient in accordance with the law if the illegally absorbed funds are mainly used for normal production and business activities and can be repaid in time.

At present, illegal fund-raising tends to spread to different regions and industries. To effectively prevent and deal with illegal fund-raising, it is necessary to strengthen leadership, participate in many parties and form a joint force. "The Opinions also emphasize the construction of a work pattern in which the division of labor is responsible for linkage and cooperation." Liu Weibo said.

Li Aijun said that at present, with the rapid spread and wide coverage of Internet technology, Internet-based illegal fund-raising has the characteristics of cross-sectoral, cross-regional, cross-industry and regional, and governance of Internet-based illegal fund-raising requires all-round cooperation.

The combination of dredging and plugging focuses on prevention

The prevention and disposal of illegal fund-raising is a long-term, complex and arduous systematic project. To effectively prevent and control the risk of illegal fund-raising, we must change our ideas, innovate our mechanisms and improve our methods. "The Opinions put forward the important concept of’ two combinations’, that is, the combination of prevention and suppression and the combination of unblocking." Liu Weibo said that the key to achieving the goal of early detection and early resolution of illegal fund-raising is prevention.

Among them, prevention means nip in the bud, and do a good job in monitoring and early warning, daily supervision, investigation and evaluation of illegal fund-raising risks; Fight, that is, fight early and fight small, and severely crack down on key areas, key areas and major vicious illegal fund-raising cases according to law; Sparse is to continuously improve the level of financial services through reform, broaden private investment and financing channels, vigorously develop inclusive finance, and effectively solve the contradiction between financial supply and demand; Blocking is to clarify the boundaries of policies and laws by improving laws and regulations, and resolutely block all kinds of illegal fund-raising and criminal activities carried out under the banner of production and operation, commodity trading, financial innovation and internet finance.

Liu Weibo believes that only by taking precautions in place, cracking down effectively, unblocking the right path, blocking evil paths, and taking multiple measures simultaneously can we get out of the strange circle of "letting chaos control death" and achieve the effect of treating both the symptoms and the root causes.

Peng Bing, a professor at Peking University Law School, said that once the risk of illegal fund-raising breaks out, it is often difficult to pay, and it is difficult for investors to recover their funds. The Opinions focus on prevention in cracking down on illegal fund-raising activities, which has strong practical significance.

The development of illegal fund-raising activities needs to rely on some channels that are convenient to the public, such as advertising, and various organizations that have obtained sales licenses to promote illegal wealth management products. Peng Bing said, "Setting up monitoring in these channels can detect illegal fund-raising activities as early as possible and nip them in the bud." The Opinions also proposes to strengthen the monitoring and inspection of advertisements.

Monitoring the capital flow is helpful for early detection of illegal fund-raising activities. "Most funds for illegal fund-raising activities need to go through financial institutions. Strengthening the monitoring of anti-money laundering by financial institutions will effectively find suspected illegal fund-raising activities in the early stage." Peng Bing said that the Opinions clarify that financial institutions should identify and report suspicious trading activities suspected of illegal fund-raising on the basis of anti-money laundering.

At the same time, the Opinions also emphasize the role of "publicity and education" in preventing and handling illegal fund-raising. "Through publicity and education for the masses, let them master certain basic knowledge and common sense of finance and law, which will not only make the masses invest more rationally, but also improve their self-protection ability, and will also play a guiding role in the whole society." Li Aijun said.

Carry out the responsibility without leaving a vacuum

Li Aijun believes that the Opinions further improve the responsibility mechanism for preventing and disposing of illegal fund-raising. For example, in the Opinions, it is clear that the provincial people’s government is the first responsible person to prevent and dispose of illegal fund-raising, and the local people’s governments at all levels should effectively implement the responsibilities of territorial management, and make detailed provisions on the scope of responsibility and the assessment methods of responsibilities of each responsible subject. This fully reflects the government’s determination to control illegal fund-raising. Only when the responsibility is clear and operational can it be truly implemented and effective, and it can ensure that there is no vacuum in the supervision and prevention of illegal fund-raising in all industries.

"In addition, the Opinions stipulate the responsibilities of relevant departments from the principle of whether supervision is linked to market access and industry management, which inhibits the current illegal fund-raising and use of the lack of supervision system to engage in illegal and criminal activities." Li Aijun said that the current illegal fund-raising with the help of Internet technology has circumvented the regulatory agencies and competent authorities. With the promulgation of the Opinions, local people’s governments at all levels will be responsible for the supervision and management of all kinds of "innovations" that evade regulatory agencies and competent institutions, which will fundamentally prevent the risks brought by all kinds of pseudo-innovations.

Liu Weibo said that while clarifying the main body of responsibility and refining the division of responsibilities, the Opinions put special emphasis on the accountability mechanism, and incorporated the prevention and disposal of illegal fund-raising into the comprehensive assessment and evaluation of leading bodies and leading cadres of people’s governments at all levels. The financial supervision department will also establish an accountability system while guiding and urging financial institutions to strengthen internal management, social propaganda, monitoring and reporting.

China’s economy is a sea, not a small pond!

  On the 5th, the first China International Import Expo opened in Shanghai. The Supreme Leader of president, China attended the opening ceremony and delivered a keynote speech. In the speech, the Supreme Leader’s speech that China’s economy is a sea aroused widespread concern. Why is China’s economy a sea rather than a small pond?

  Six favorable conditions

  The Supreme Leader pointed out that China is the second largest economy in the world, with a large market of more than 1.3 billion people and a land area of more than 9.6 million square kilometers. China’s economy is a sea, not a small pond. When the sea is calm, there are also times when the wind is crazy and the rain is sudden. Storms can overturn small ponds, but not the sea.

  The Supreme Leader said that everyone can be optimistic about China’s economic development prospects. China has many favorable conditions to maintain long-term, healthy and stable economic development.

  The supreme leader’s "China’s theory of economic sea" echoed the speech he made at the symposium of private enterprises a few days ago. At that time, he clearly pointed out that we should see favorable conditions and enhance our confidence in winning China’s economic development. These advantages include:

  China has great development resilience, potential and room for manoeuvre. China has a domestic demand market with a population of more than 1.3 billion, which is in the synchronous development stage of new industrialization, informationization, urbanization and agricultural modernization. The expansion of middle-income groups breeds a large number of consumption upgrading needs, and the uneven development of urban and rural areas contains considerable room for development.

  China has good development conditions and material foundation, the most complete industrial system in the world and the increasing ability of scientific and technological innovation, and the total savings rate is still at a high level.

  China is rich in human capital, and the comparative advantage of labor force is still obvious.

  China has a vast territory, rich total land resources and huge potential for intensive land use, which also provides a good space support for economic development.

  The fundamentals of China’s healthy and stable economic development have not changed, the conditions of production factors supporting high-quality development have not changed, and the overall momentum of long-term stability has not changed.

  We have the strong leadership of the Party, the political advantage of concentrating our efforts on major issues, deepening reform in an all-round way, constantly releasing development momentum, and constantly enhancing our macro-control ability.

  Because of this, as long as we maintain our strategic strength, comprehensively deepen reform and opening up, deepen structural reform on the supply side, and make great efforts to solve outstanding contradictions and problems, China’s economy will surely accelerate its transition to a high-quality development track, the people of China will surely overcome all difficulties and challenges along the way, and China will surely usher in a brighter development prospect.

  China’s economy is still operating in a reasonable range.

  In addition to the six favorable conditions, there are concrete data to support China’s theory of economic sea. In the first three quarters, China’s GDP increased by 6.7%, and in the third quarter it increased by 6.5%, which was in line with the expected target. The annual grain output is expected to remain above 1.2 trillion Jin. 11.07 million new jobs were created in cities and towns, and the annual target was achieved ahead of schedule. From the economic growth, employment, prices, international payments, corporate profits, fiscal revenue, labor productivity and other major indicators, China’s economic operation is in a reasonable range, laying an important foundation for achieving the annual goals and tasks. Compared with other major economies, China’s economic growth is still in the forefront of the world.

  According to the data released by the Ministry of Commerce on October 18th, in the first three quarters of this year, 45,922 foreign-invested enterprises were newly established in China, up 95.1% year-on-year. The actual use of foreign capital was 636.7 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 2.9%. Gao Feng, spokesman of the Ministry of Commerce, said at the press conference held on the same day that the industrial structure and regional layout of China’s utilization of foreign capital are also being further optimized, and the manufacturing industry, especially the high-tech manufacturing industry, is growing rapidly.

  The data really shows that storms can’t overturn the sea.

  The effectiveness of the policy has been or is emerging.

  The road to simplicity is the most important thing. Regarding some difficulties and challenges faced by China’s economy, the Supreme Leader said that on the whole, these are problems encountered in the process of progress, and we are taking measures to actively solve them, and the results have been or are showing.

  Recently, the central authorities have taken a series of measures. On July 31, the the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee meeting put forward "six stabilities", all localities vigorously improved the business environment, raised the tax threshold to increase residents’ spending power, and measures to reduce taxes and fees were continuously introduced … … This series of measures is playing a role, and there is a good example. On the evening of October 31, 2018, Beijing time, the World Bank released the 2019 Business Environment Report: Training for Reform. Among them, Chinese mainland ranked 32 places higher than last year, ranking 46th among the top 50 economies in the world. From 2013 to 2018, the World Bank’s Doing Business Report ranked China by 50 places. In last year’s report and the previous year’s report, China ranked 78th. This year, China scored 8.64 points higher than last year, making it one of the economies with the greatest improvement in business environment.

  There is no end to hard work. In the keynote speech at the opening ceremony of the first China International Import Expo(CIIE), the top leaders put forward five measures to further expand opening up, covering stimulating import potential, continuously relaxing market access, creating a world-class business environment, creating a new highland for opening up to the outside world, and promoting the in-depth development of multilateral and bilateral cooperation. At the symposium of private enterprises held on November 1, the top leaders proposed to implement six policy measures, including reducing the burden of corporate taxes and fees, solving the problem of financing difficulties and expensive financing for private enterprises and so on.

  With so many favorable conditions, coupled with the hard-working spirit of facing up to difficulties and solving them, China’s economy has a solid foundation. This is also the foundation of "China’s theory of economic sea". Storms can overturn small ponds, but not the sea.

Archaeological research achievements in Xizang | Qiege site is expected to uncover the history of North China people’s migration into Tibet

CCTV News:Today (January 13th) morning, National Cultural Heritage Administration held a report meeting on archaeological discoveries in Xizang, and reported four major archaeological discoveries in Xizang, including Qiege site, Mabulu site, Gebuseru site and Dangxiong cemetery. Among them, Qiege site is a rare site of early prehistoric human activities with clear stratigraphic accumulation in the hinterland of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, which fills the gap between the hinterland of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and 8,000 years ago. The blank of prehistoric archaeological culture in 10000 years, and more importantly, a dense distribution area of stone products was found in the site, which is expected to gradually uncover the long history of North China people migrating into Tibet about 10 thousand years ago.

This is a fine stone core, less than two centimeters, with angular surface and "cut marks", which is the effect of pressing and "cutting" with a special tool. This is the small part that has been "cut". It is called a fine stone leaf by archaeologists. Its edge is as sharp as a blade, and its size is only a few millimeters to a few centimeters. It was used by people who cut heat on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau about 10,000 years ago. It is extremely difficult to "cut" a stone knife. Small fine stone cores and leaves condense the great wisdom of ancient humans on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in the Paleolithic Age.

These stone tools, which surprised archaeologists repeatedly, were unearthed at the Qiege site in Ali, Xizang. According to reports, Paleolithic remains such as fine stone leaves and fine stone cores are often found on the surface of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. However, the remains collected on the surface can’t determine the primary strata and dating, and when human activities appeared on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has been an important issue for half a century. In 2011, an archaeological team led by Zhang Xiaoling, an associate researcher at the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, began to investigate in Xizang. In 2012, several potential sites were found on the banks of Shiquan River in Gaer County, Ali region. After further investigation and trial excavation, it was determined that Qiege site was of great research value. August & mdash; 2020; In September, the site was officially excavated, and more than 5,000 cultural relics were unearthed in an area of nearly 70 square meters. A long-lost human history on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in the Paleolithic Age slowly emerged.

Archaeologists said that nearly 30,000 years ago, the remains of fine stone leaves first appeared in North China, and reached a prosperous period about 15,000 years ago. However, the fine stone leaves and other cultural relics found in Qiege site in Xizang are highly similar to the remains in North China, and the time is relatively late. In which region did ancient humans migrate to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau? The answer has also become clear.

According to reports, in the whole Paleolithic period, that is, 99% of human history, human beings often migrated and moved because of changes in food and resources. Previously, the archaeological team of Zhang Xiaoling, Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, discovered the track of human activities 40,000 years ago at the site of Naqunia in Xizang. The discovery of Qiege site fills a historical gap in the process of human survival and adaptation and the formation of Tibetan population in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau after 40,000 years.

Gao Xing, a researcher at the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology, Chinese Academy of Sciences:The ancient people, whether their remains or their cultural remains, may not all be preserved, so writing the history of human beings with archaeological materials can only be intermittent. I am afraid this puzzle will never be put together completely, but its big outline will be established.

43 diaries of Weibo, addressed to me as "An"

  Watch spring with great love

  — — Cadres of Procuratorate of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region

  He Wenkai and his wife’s anti-epidemic story

  On January 27th, the third day of the first month, the news of COVID-19 outbreak in Wuhan was overwhelming, and Wuhan was in critical condition.

  The epidemic is the order. At about 15 o’clock in the afternoon, there was a crowd in front of the gate of the inpatient department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University, and the first batch of Wuhan medical teams in Guangxi were ready to go.

  He Wenkai, a cadre of the Information Office of the Procuratorate of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, took his eight-year-old daughter to bid farewell to his wife, Tang Lian, who was about to go to the front line.

  "Dad, will mom be infected by that virus?" The daughter asked anxiously. "No, your mother is very capable and can protect herself." He Wenkai comforted his daughter. "Why does mom have to go?" The daughter asked again. "Many people in Wu Hanyou are ill, and doctors and nurses are not enough. Your mother is excellent, so she was chosen to treat them. "

  But the child doesn’t know that from the moment he learned that his wife was about to rush to Wuhan, He Wenkai’s mood has been uneasy, and it seems to be mixed with some unspeakable tragic.

  Go out resolutely

  On the evening of January 25th, Tang Lian learned that Guangxi would send the first batch of medical teams to support Hubei to carry out medical treatment in COVID-19, so she collected volunteers.

  "Many people in our hospital have signed up. Do you think I should sign up?" That night, she asked her husband for advice. "You sign up for the idea? But I support you, and I am honored that you are a retrograde person. " He Wenkai, who knows his wife, said with a smile.

  Tang Lian is a nurse, deputy director of the Department of Respiratory Medicine, the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University. "She is professional, experienced and works in the respiratory department. She should be considered in the organization for such a respiratory disease epidemic." He Wenkai said.

  Since my wife signed up, this family, which is full of laughter and laughter on weekdays, has suddenly become much quieter and the atmosphere has become somewhat dignified. "I don’t know what to say, neither of us is the kind of person who is a mother-in-law. As a husband, the question of whether she can go or not is contradictory. I hope that she will be selected and she will not be selected. After all, she is going to an epidemic area and facing such a strange and dangerous virus. "

  The list of medical teams will be confirmed soon. Tang Lian is on the list. Later, He Wenkai learned that his wife was actually the first one to sign up in their hospital.

  Ping An, checking in at the hotel. Late at night on January 27th, He Wenkai received Tang Lian’s WeChat.

  The next day, He Wenkai wrote in his personal Weibo: My wife arrived in Wuhan last night. It is said that their medical team was stationed in Huangpi Chinese Medicine Hospital and began to help patients. No new message … …

  Anti-COVID-19 Diary [1]:

  My wife arrived in Wuhan last night. It is said that her medical team is stationed in huangpi district Chinese Medicine Hospital to help treat new pneumonia patients. No new message … …

  On January 27th, Tang Lian went to war, and He Wenkai took his daughter to see him off.

  ● Weibo story ●

  He Wenkai has 450,000 fans on Weibo. As a full-time cadre engaged in procuratorial news propaganda, he knows the significance of public opinion to this war of resistance at a time when the epidemic situation is raging and the whole country is fighting against COVID-19.

  So He Wenkai began to write "Anti-COVID-19 Diary" in Weibo. In his view, supporting his wife and her medical care group in a different way, recording the vivid stories of prosecutors fighting against the epidemic and conveying the strong voice of the party and the government are not only personal records of current events of the times, but also the responsibility and mission of a procuratorial propagandist.

  Anti-COVID-19 Diary [2]:

  She has a master’s degree in medicine, and she is a nurse, deputy director of respiratory department. We discussed COVID-19, and I feel that they are not very knowledgeable about this disease in clinical practice. Maybe she has professional discipline and won’t talk to me about the details of the epidemic, which makes me nervous all the time. She said that she had been in the ward for a long time and was more resistant to bacteria. I hope so!

In the ward, Tang Lian and her colleagues mostly communicate through paper and pen.

He Wenkai and the staff of the Information Office planned the propaganda report on epidemic prevention of procuratorial organs.

  The topic of "Anti-COVID-19 Diary" set off a hot discussion among netizens. As of press time, He Wenkai has written 43 "Diaries Against COVID-19", with the highest single reading volume reaching more than 80,000, and the total reading volume exceeding one million.

  Anti-COVID-19 Diary [9]:

  The child misses his mother. I specially made a postcard, took a video and sent it to Ann. The child said, I wish my mother good health, cure more patients and go home early.

During the period of aiding Hubei, Tang Lian’s happiest time was to have a video call with her children during the break.

Writing a diary of Weibo’s anti-epidemic is He Wenkai’s "homework" in the evening.

  He Wenkai’s "Diary of Anti-COVID-19" is constantly updated. He writes about his wife and daughter, his procuratorial colleagues, and some "mortal charity" he has seen and heard. He also interacts with netizens and answers relevant legal questions.

  Many strange netizens, including epidemic areas, learned from his diary in Weibo that the Guangxi medical team started medical treatment in Wuhan, and they forwarded, commented and liked it on Weibo, thanking all the people who made efforts to fight the COVID-19 epidemic.

  User’s forwarding, comments and likes:

  @CH00 ch00ling: As a girl in Guangxi, I am really proud! Please pay attention to safety and come back safely! Salute! The most beautiful doctor sister!

  @ Almost ph: Our hometown, thank you for coming thousands of miles to support, and I hope everyone will be safe.

  @ lazy pig a lazy pig: I hope this spring is still full of vitality, and my wife will arrive safely when the flowers bloom!

  … …

  He Wenkai’s wife also praised him: "I didn’t expect the influence to be so great. Even our colleagues know that you are writing Weibo’s diary, and everyone is encouraged."

  second front

  Since the outbreak of Xinguan pneumonia, the Information Office of the Procuratorate of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region has entered the "fighting" mode early and has gone all out in the "second battlefield" to fight the epidemic. From the beginning of the Lunar New Year, the WeChat WeChat official account of the Procuratorate of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region has continuously conveyed the good voice of Guangxi procuratorate in fighting the epidemic.

  From January 25th to February 27th, the Information Office of the Procuratorate of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region published more than 200 articles in various media at all levels. Only "Guangxi Procuratorate" WeChat WeChat official account has compiled and distributed 154 propaganda articles.

  Anti-COVID-19 Diary [36]:

  Heavy. As a middle and senior intellectual, Ann has always been a "mass" in politics, and has a strong desire to join the organization close to the Party. This time, the first batch went to Hubei with the Guangxi medical team to fight the COVID-19 epidemic, which has been improved ideologically and politically. Today, the firewire joined the party! From now on, in our family, I have the dual identity of husband and old party member. Honey, come on! Guangxi medical team, come on! Wuhan, come on!

Tang Li ‘an spoke as the representative of New party member at the ceremony of the medical aid team members joining the Party with Firewire.

It is the responsibility of the information office to report the "epidemic" situation of procuratorial organs in time and convey the positive energy of procuratorial work.

  Because of the epidemic, my daughter’s school was delayed. Because his wife is not at home, the responsibility of taking care of the children falls entirely on He Wenkai. During the day, the child attends online classes at home by himself. When He Wenkai comes back from work at night, he has to help the child finish his homework and attend online interest classes. Only after the child falls asleep can he have his own time to think and deal with things at work.

  The work of the information office is often a temporary task, which is very time-sensitive. He Wenkai often talks with his colleagues on the phone while explaining homework problems to his children. The child made a mistake and lost his temper and complained, "Dad, can you concentrate?"? !” He Wenkai can only helplessly apologize to the child.

  Meet the dawn

  This more than a month, every Chinese may have mixed feelings. Those confusions and firmness, sadness and emotion are intertwined, which makes people witness the ruthlessness of the virus and the warmth of the world.

  As of February 27th, more than 300 medical teams and more than 40,000 medical team members have been sent across the country to support Hubei.

  Fortunately, every "retrograde person" is not alone, and both "small family" and "everyone" are their strong backing.

  Anti-COVID-19 Diary [42]:

  Ann has been in Wuhan for a month. Ann said that there are fewer and fewer new cases and deaths, and more and more cases are cured, so it’s time to return to Japan. I really have to come back early, and I can’t go home when I come back. I have to be isolated for half a month. The mountain flowers have blossomed, and the bluebird looks forward to the spring return.

 

He Wenkai: Resolutely win the people’s war, overall war and blocking war for epidemic prevention and control.

  As He Wenkai wrote in his Weibo: "Ann has taken risks and hardships, and the great support given by the motherland and people makes people feel happy from the heart."

  On February 27th, it was the 30th day that He Wenkai’s wife Tang Lian arrived in Wuhan. He Wenkai talked to his wife on the phone as usual, and her wife happily told her that the epidemic was under control. There were fewer and fewer new cases and deaths, and more and more cases were cured. Maybe she could go home soon.

  "The mountain flowers have blossomed, and the bluebird looks forward to spring." On this day, He Wenkai wrote in Article 42 "Anti-COVID-19 Diary". In this battle without smoke, he and his wife have experienced a lot and grown a lot. I believe that after experiencing the storm, they can watch the spring more calmly.

The Lost Skill "Beating the Iron Flower" reappears the Taoist cultural homeland.

  BEIJING, Zoucheng, Feb. 20 (Zeng Jie, Wang Chongyin) Since the ninth day of the first lunar month, the lost skill "Tie Tie Hua" has reappeared in Gelushan, Zoucheng, Shandong Province, the hometown of Taoist culture. With the gradual decline of the iron smelting industry in the last century, the blacksmith’s artistic performance "Beating the Iron Flower" once disappeared from people’s field of vision.

  In an interview with Gelushan in Zoucheng on the night of the 21st (the 12th day of the first month), the reporter saw that 71-year-old Kong Lingfa and 46-year-old Kong Lingshuang went into battle shirtless and danced "flower sticks" with thousands of degrees of molten iron in various postures in the sound of gongs and drums. Iron juice splashed on a nearby prop-a big willow with many branches, and then turned into a giant flower with the help of wicker posture. The onlookers held their breath first, then cheered and screamed, calling it the most "thrilling" performance in the first month.

  "How can the first month of Gelushan not be spent while the iron is hot?" While the iron is hot, Hua returned to Gelushan, which made Kong Lingfa in seventy years of age feel very excited. He told reporters that his family was engaged in iron smelting in the late Qing Dynasty, and playing iron flower was a "talent" performance that his family was proud of. As the fourth generation of his family, he witnessed the prosperity and decline of playing iron flower.

  Kong Lingfa introduced that the cultural origin of Gelushan and Taoism was recorded in the Old Records of Zouxian County. In ancient times, five craftsmen of gold, silver, copper, iron and tin called each other brothers and respected the old gentleman on the Grand Master as the ancestor. During the Spring Festival, they sacrificed while the iron was hot. Since the Ming Dynasty, many famous iron smelting craftsmen have emerged here, and the performance of Gelushan while the iron was hot continued from the Ming Dynasty to the 1980s.

  By the time the young Kong Lingfa "played with a flower stick", folk customs such as dragon dancing, playing bronze wares and knocking on gongs and drums had been absorbed, and striking iron flowers became the most imposing and joyful program in the first month of Gelushan.

  It is reported that Tie Hua was listed in the national intangible cultural heritage list as early as 2008. There was no inheritor of this skill in Gelushan at that time. Kong Lingfa, who gave up the iron smelting business, has already become an out-and-out farmer.

  Gao Dewen, director of Zoucheng Cultural Center, told reporters that Kong Lingfa and Kong Lingshuang, who are stunted, were discovered by Zoucheng Intangible Heritage Protection Center in 2015 and selected as inheritors. The Spring Festival of the Year of the Monkey is the first time that they started their "acting career" as non-genetic inheritors.

  Kong Lingfa is from Beige Village, Dashu Town, Zoucheng, and Kong Lingshuang is from Henghe Village, Daping Town. These days, the two are leading more than a dozen young people to step up rehearsals for the official performance of the Lantern Festival. According to Gao Dewen, it can be seen from the recent audition that while the iron is hot, flowers are loved by the audience.

  "Playing while the iron is hot once brought people infinite joy and excitement." Gao Dewen, who has been engaged in the rescue of intangible cultural heritage for a long time, said that playing while the iron is hot has strong entertainment and appreciation. Although the iron smelting industry in Gelushan area has declined now, playing while the iron is hot should return to the public’s field of vision and become an artistic performance in festivals.

  Gao Dewen said that the metallurgical culture in Taoist alchemy pharmacy and the prosperous history of iron smelting industry in this area have been written into the newly compiled Zoucheng Literature and History Materials, and the flower while the iron is hot has also gone down in history as a cultural symbol here.
