Topic 1-Pregnant woman on Beijing subway
A pregnant woman has caused havoc 1 in the Beijing subway when nobody would give up their seat for her. Incidents of aggression 2 at Beijing’s busy subway line may be nothing new. But is it a proper way to block the subway just to ask for a seat?
Topic 2-Parent college campers
At the start of a new semester, more universities across China are setting up tented camps for parents who are seeing off their college freshman 3 children. On Chinese social media, netizens discuss if these so-called ‘tents of love’ (爱心帐篷) are indeed a sign of love, or if they epitomize the non-independence of China’s post-1990s generation.
Topic 3-Peter Pan Syndrome 4
All children, except one, grow up. That’s the opening in Scottish author James Matthew Barrie’s novel Peter Pan and Wendy. Peter Pan, the character he created, is a boy who can fly but refuses to grow up. The novel is a fairy tale, but there are some people living like a Peter Pan in the real world. We say they have the Peter Pan Syndrome. What is the Peter Pan Syndrome? Is it good or bad?
