 Topic1 Parents Who Lost Only Child Ask for CompensationOver 240 Chinese couples who have lost their only child vowed 1 to appeal after the National Health and Family Planning Commission rejected their demand for compensation.


In China, every year there are 76,000 parents who lose their only child due to various reasons.
But these 240 have chosen not to stay silent. Why are they asking for compensation?
Topic2 Exotic Words Hurt Chinese PurityPeople's Daily, the state-run newspaper criticized massive use of exotic words in its commentary article of April 25 Why 'Zero-Translation' Prevails.
The article pointed 2 out that appearance of words like WiFi,CEO,MBA,CBD,VIP,PM2.5 in newspaper reports and serious academic journals not only harms the purity and health of the Chinese Language, but also erodes 3 the essence of Chinese cultural spirit.
The article questioned: "Why can 'Nokia' and 'Motorola' be translated into Chinese but not 'iPhone' or 'iPad'? When English absorbs Chinese words, the words are written in roman letters, why the Chinese language has to be mingled 4 with a lot of English words?"Are too many foreign words in the Chinese language a problem?
Topic3 China's household savings 5 rateChina's savings rate increased from 35% in 1992 to 59% in 2012, ranking the first in the world. Recently Wu Jinglian, researcher of Development Research Center of the State Council, noted 6 that household savings rate has been stable at 20% in the past two decades while government and enterprise savings rate increased about 1.5 times.
Is China's saving's rate too high?
Topic4 Chinese Style Fake DivorceIt used to be that divorce was a terrifying word for Chinese people. Divorcees lost face and were stigmatized 7.
Not any more, however. More and more Chinese couples are opting 8 for divorce. While some do it to end the relationship, others have an ulterior motive 9. This has become a big enough trend and now it is known as the "Chinese style fake divorce."Why do you people do this? Are their reasons justified 10?
