Topic1–Ticketing mix-up blamed for fare-dodging child flight delay
A flight from Beijing to Shanghai was delayed last Sunday after the cabin crew discovered a child had boarded the plane without a ticket. Other passengers have complained about the inconvenience caused by the incident while internet users have assumed it must have been fare-dodging intentions in the part of, quote on quote, uncivilized people.
Though, is it the whole story?
Topic2-Man with "emotional sunstroke" fires half of his employees
Sustained high temperatures have not only made people's bodies vulnerable to heatstroke, but also their psychological conditions.
A young boss in eastern China's Hangzhou city scared off half of his employees due to his hot temper in the hot day. He also told reporters, suffering from insomnia 1 in hot temperature has exacerbated 2 the problem.
So can the weather have a real effect on human emotions? Are there special tips to anger management during hot summer days?
Topic3- Should men cry
You're a guy. You NEVER get sad. At least, that's what we're supposed to think.
Well, it's time to throw that way of thinking out with the garbage, because seeing a guy cry in public is like seeing a white tiger in the wild: Rare and beautiful. Women may cry more often than men, but here's why dudes should sob 3 uncontrollably -- like a child who just dropped its ice cream -- with pride, not shame.
