Are you ready to read the answer? Pull down!

1. A

"challenge and cheese" is equivalent to "apples and oranges" said by Americans. It describes that two things or people are completely different or completely incompatible. The usual sentence pattern is "like/as different as challenge and cheese", for example, we’ll never get on-we’re like challenge and cheese.

2. D

"Bob’s your uncle" is said to have originated from Arthur Balfour. He was appointed to several prestigious positions by his uncle Robert Cecil (nicknamed Bob), and now it is used to indicate that he can finish a task easily. For example, put together a couple of kitchen fittings, buy a coffee machine and Bob’s your uncle.

3. A

"Donkey’s" is usually a shorthand for "donkey’s years". At first, it may be written as donkey’s ears, which means that something is very long in length, but now it means a long time. For example, we’ve been close friends for donkey’s years.

4. A

Incredibly, "Something for the weekend" refers to condoms. People usually think that this is a euphemism when barbers selling condoms sell them to customers, such as "something for the weekend, sir? "

5. D

"His Sharp Practice Costhim a $ TERM at Her Majesty’s pleasure", if someone at her majesty’s pleasure, then he is being held in a British prison. This phrase was formed because the monarch initially had the right to decide freely whether to detain someone.

6. C

Swings and roundabouts in British English mean "different actions or choices will eventually lead to no gains or losses, or gains and losses will offset each other". Does it mean that different roads lead to the same goal, or that the lost corner will reap the mulberry? A more complete phrase is "to gain on the swings and lose on the roundabouts". For example, I don’t want to have to, but it’s swings and roundabouts

7. D

Horses for courses is an English proverb, which means "different people are suitable for different things", and its origin is the phrase "different race horses would be better on different race courses/different horse races have better performances on different tracks", which really has their own strengths or different meanings. For example, so I’m not interested in politics, it’s horses for courses.

8. C

The origin of the phrase get/have/give someone the hump is not clear, and it may be related to camels, which means "to become angry or lose one’s temper for no reason", such as "fans get the hump when they lose" or "debate has been beening about road safety, with people across London getting the hump."

9. C

In Britain, it used to cost a penny to use a coin-operated public toilet once, which is a euphemism for the phrase spend a penny instead of "urinating", such as "you can’t get to sleep when you want to spend a penny".

10. C

There seems to be a clear correlation between pull and attributes in the example. The phrase on the pull refers to an attempt to attract someone to bed in British informal context, such as "an eligible bachelor on the pull" or "I remember now why I’m not interested in going on the pull."

The Cross-border E-commerce Innovation and Development Forum of "Global Vision and Boundless Trade" was held in Guiyang

  Cctv news(Reporter Xu Hui) On May 25th, global vision and unbounded trade — — Cross-border e-commerce innovation and development forum was held in Guiyang. Participants explored the global market opportunities under the new trade pattern around cutting-edge topics such as the new cross-border e-commerce policy, China’s brand going out to sea under the new rules, the precision of cross-border supply chain and the expansion of effective imports.

  The forum was hosted by the Organizing Committee of 2019 China International Big Data Industry Expo and the Trade Promotion Center of China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, and hosted by china network television.

  The "first half" of cross-border e-commerce has not yet ended, and there is huge room for development.

  In the keynote speech stage of the forum, Wang Shengli, deputy director of the Law Enforcement Inspection Bureau of the State Administration of Market Supervision, Xu Min, vice president of Procter & Gamble Group, and Lu Chengnan, executive vice president of Zhejiang E-commerce Promotion Association, expressed their views on the development, problems and future development of cross-border e-commerce.

  In his speech, Wang Shengli expressed his views on cross-border e-commerce and intellectual property protection. He introduced that in 2018, the total import and export volume of cross-border e-commerce retail in China reached 134.7 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 50%. Cross-border e-commerce brings convenience to our lives, but it also brings infringement problems. The intellectual property infringement of cross-border e-commerce is currently characterized by online and offline integration and domestic and overseas chaining.

  Wang Shengli said: Since its establishment last year, the State Administration of Market Supervision has earnestly performed its functions of enforcing intellectual property rights and achieved positive results. In the next step, the State Administration of Market Supervision will carry out in-depth special governance actions in the field of e-commerce, strengthen the linkage with customs, public security and other departments, and focus on behaviors that infringe consumers’ right to know and choose with strong public reaction and great social harm.

  Xu Min, vice president of Procter & Gamble Group, said that cross-border e-commerce has really facilitated trade, especially allowing consumers in China to buy the best products in the world, and it can also encourage multinational companies to accelerate product innovation. Xu Min expects cross-border e-commerce to develop better from the perspective of merchants.

  Lu Chengnan, executive vice president of Zhejiang E-commerce Promotion Association, said that cross-border e-commerce directly faces overseas consumers, which shortens the whole trade process on the one hand, and can also establish our own brand through consumers on the other. He said that so far, more than 30 cities in China have implemented comprehensive pilot projects of cross-border e-commerce and achieved very good results. However, in the long run, cross-border e-commerce still has great market demand and a lot of room for development.

  "E-commerce Law" provides "China Plan" for the development of world e-commerce.

  In the round-table discussion stage, the guests discussed the opportunities and challenges of cross-border e-commerce under the influence of new policies and regulations, and the cross-border e-commerce and China corporate brands going out to sea.

  Song Minqing, a researcher at the Department of Electronic Commerce and Information Technology of the Ministry of Commerce, said that the Electronic Commerce Law is the first comprehensive basic law in the field of electronic commerce and is of great significance to the sustainable and healthy development of electronic commerce. The law adheres to the principle of consistency between online and offline, treats online and offline business activities equally and promotes the integrated development of online and offline. "This law not only provides a legal basis for the development of domestic Internet economy, but also provides ‘ China plan ’ 。”

  Ouyang Cheng, director of cross-border electronic commerce Research Center of Alibaba, said in his speech that Alibaba regards the development of cross-border e-commerce not only as the development of trade, but also as the global development of a whole set of new commercial infrastructure capabilities. With the development of cross-border e-commerce, Alibaba’s Alipay and Ant Financial are also rapidly globalizing.

  Zhou Yixia, sales director of UPS China in East China and North China, appealed to China’s e-commerce enterprises to respect the rules if they want to go out. "If you want to go out and go for a long time, you really need to pay this time and energy now. ‘ Compliance ’ This road is paved. "

  Gou Yiyuan, general manager of COFCO Trade and Agriculture Big Data Co., Ltd. said in his speech: "What we have to do is to drive the development of supply chain and the landing of standards in the future through data, so that our traditional industries can go to cross-border e-commerce."

  At the event site, Guiyang Comprehensive Bonded Zone Management Committee, Guiyang Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese and China-Europe and China Trade and Science Association held a signing ceremony of cooperation framework agreement.

  Karel Snow, Consul General of the Czech Consulate General in Chengdu, expressed the hope that this signing will lay the foundation for the establishment of a long-term cooperative partnership between the two countries in the future and open the door for new cooperation.

  "This agreement is only the first step of our cooperation, and I firmly believe that there will be more follow-up cooperation," said Leiden Markles, president of China-Europe and China Trade and Technology Association.

Shichahai: Unique Style Showing Beijing Culture

  Shichahai in Beijing has been a scenic spot for literati to sing since ancient times, and now it has become an important historical and cultural protection area. The TV series Shichahai, which is being broadcast on CCTV, depicts the great Beijing amorous feelings reflected by Shichahai’s mirror in a small way through the ideological collision and emotional blending of a family of three generations, and shows the rapid development of contemporary China and the dedication spirit of the times from one side. 

5f1e992fe4b00abaf3f1e4c5.jpg

  From the perspective of modern family, it is the narrative style of Shichahai to spread out the group images of characters and contemporary life pictures on the background of history and humanity. In the play, Zhuang Weitian, played by Liu Peiqi, passed on the culinary skills and the cultural essence of "diligence" in old Beijing to the younger generation with his own personal experience, so that the new generation of young people can remember the purpose of "art is fragrance, virtue is soul", do things in a down-to-earth manner and be serious. 

  If we say that Zhuang Weitian in the play represents the persistence and persistence of the older generation; Zhuang Zhibin, the eldest son, actively started a business, which is a portrayal of middle-aged people in today’s society; Then the younger generation of Zhuang Xiaoxiao and Xiang Dong inject new vitality into the capital culture and Beijing spirit. They live freely and casually, constantly looking for the meaning of youth, and show the high spirits of a new generation of young people. 

  Different from Zhuang Weitian’s business philosophy of "Don’t talk about peaches and plums, learn from others", Zhuang Xiaoxiao and other younger generations used the Internet to expand publicity, and new and old ideas formed a fusion and collision. Moreover, there is a foreign photographer David who is obsessed with China culture, and his appearance symbolizes the collision and communication between Chinese and Western cultures. It is precisely because of Chinese culture’s continuous "going out" that more foreigners will understand the charm of China culture and make the culture of Jingweier more modern and international. In the latest TV series, David is not only infected by the profound Chinese culture, but also has a warm pursuit for Zhuang Weitian’s daughter Zhuang Jing. 

  "Shichahai" seems to tell the story of a traditional family in Shichahai, but in fact, it presents the life of ordinary people from a small perspective. On the one hand, the play reflects the warmth of the family and creates a better life with hard-working hands. On the other hand, it tells a lot of cultural heritage and local customs of Beijing, so that modern young people can understand the cultural heritage of Beijing, and at the same time, the older generation can absorb the way of thinking of modern life. Shichahai presents the collision between the old generation and the new generation, the blending of local culture and foreign culture, and the exchange of eastern culture and western culture. It is these integrations and collisions that keep the city of Beijing alive forever. 

  The success of a play depends to a great extent on the details. Shichahai embeds food culture, hutong culture, architectural culture and folk culture into the works, and is especially careful in the performance of details. In the play, every room in the courtyard where the banker lives is configured according to the occupants’ own personality. For example, in the old couple’s house in Zhuang Weitian, there is no cement floor and no plaster wall. The ground is all floor tiles, and the walls are covered with wallpaper, with original carved flowers and partition fans, because the old lady in the play likes painting, and the room is furnished with exquisite Four Treasures of the Study. Because the plot runs through the whole play with palace cuisine, food is an important element in the play. In the detail of food, the production process and close-ups of dishes in TV series are all up to the standard of food documentary. Some netizens said that this is a TV series with "taste". Watching Chef Zhuang’s cooking drool across the screen, I thought that the "tip of the tongue" series had been updated. In fact, the crew did invite the team who participated in the creation of "China on the Tip of the Tongue" to shoot the food scene, which made this Beijing-style food drama with full color, fragrance and taste more delicious.  

Revealing the trap of online consumption: the lost third-party payment platform

Friends who have bought things online should know that under normal circumstances, when we buy things online, we often do not pay the money directly to the seller, but to the third-party payment platform. When we confirm the receipt of the goods, the third-party payment platform will pay the money to the seller. With such an intermediate link, our online consumption can be safe. If there is a "ghost" in the third-party payment platform, can our funds be safe? Recently, a Ms. Yang in Jiangsu fell into a "trap" when she recharged the game Q coins.

Rapid development! In the first quarter, China’s cross-border e-commerce import and export increased by 9.6%, and building the "Belt and Road" was stable and far-reaching.

CCTV News:As an important manifestation of digital trade, cross-border e-commerce has become a new bright spot in global economic development. Statistics from the General Administration of Customs show that in the first quarter, the import and export of cross-border e-commerce in China was 577.6 billion yuan, an increase of 9.6%. Among them, exports were 448 billion yuan and imports were 129.6 billion yuan. At the world internet conference Digital Silk Road Development Forum held on April 16th, "International Cooperation of Silk Road E-commerce" was the main topic, aiming at promoting the facilitation of cross-border electronic commerce and the data flow and sharing among countries.

The reporter saw in the live broadcast base of Xi ‘an Chanba cross-border e-commerce industrial park that the anchors enthusiastically introduced goods from different countries, such as Russian purple candy, beer, milk powder, chocolate from Uzbekistan, honey from Kyrgyzstan, and high-quality goods with Shaanxi characteristics.

At present, Chanba cross-border e-commerce industrial park has settled in 45 cross-border e-commerce enterprises and introduced more than 300 international and regional brands to deliver goods to the world in time.

Wu Ziheng, director of the Foreign Cooperation Bureau of Xi ‘an Chanba International Port Management Committee, introduced that Chanba cross-border e-commerce industrial park actively promotes the linkage of "cross-border e-commerce+live broadcast" and "cross-border e-commerce+training", builds a new industrial chain for cross-border e-commerce, and establishes four mechanisms of "enterprise incubation+talent training+innovation and entrepreneurship+industrial empowerment".

Xi ‘an Chanba Cross-border E-commerce Industrial Park is a microcosm of China’s cross-border e-commerce. Relevant data show that by the end of 2022, there were 165 cross-border electronic commerce Comprehensive Experimental Zones covering 31 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities. It is the joint efforts of these cross-border e-commerce industrial parks that have enabled China’s cross-border e-commerce import and export volume to reach 577.6 billion yuan in the first quarter of this year.

At the world internet conference Digital Silk Road Development Forum held on April 16th, many topics and discussions were focused on the development of cross-border e-commerce in countries with the Belt and Road Initiative.

Chris brown, director of the British-China Business Environment Program of the British Standards Association, said: "Now e-commerce accounts for a large proportion of global GDP and has become a driving force for economic development, so I think e-commerce is not only for China, but also for co-construction ‘ Belt and Road ’ The country, even to Europe and the world, is very important, and e-commerce will become the driving force in the fields of productivity and employment. The development of cross-border e-commerce in different countries is different, but it is undeniable that China is one of the leaders and innovators. China and the United States are both strong in the global cross-border e-commerce field, but China is in ‘ Belt and Road ’ The cross-border e-commerce field along the route has a leading position in terms of infrastructure, products and organization. Other countries should cooperate with China, and China is very strong in this field. "

Abdullah Ali works for a fast food company in Jordan. For many years, his company has been trying to explore the international market. Abdullah Ali attended the world internet conference Digital Silk Road Development Forum held on April 16th. While learning the mature model of cross-border e-commerce in China, he also hoped to find a powerful partner to help his products open the international market.

Abdullah Ali, senior project manager of a food manufacturer in Jordan, said: "I have learned a lot from this conference, such as China’s leadership in the digital development of cross-border e-commerce in the world. China is a good partner, and I hope to broaden the broader international market by participating in this Internet conference. "

World internet conference Digital Silk Road Development Forum: Bridging the Digital Divide and Creating Mutual Assistance and Win-Win.

The main topic of the world internet conference Digital Silk Road Development Forum held on April 16th was in the field of cross-border e-commerce. Experts pointed out that there is a digital gap between countries in the field of e-commerce due to their different national conditions, and all the participants are actively offering suggestions on how to bridge the digital gap and shorten the gap in strength, so as to achieve the goal of mutual assistance and win-win.

Zhuang Rui, Executive Dean of university of international business and economics Institute for International Economics, said: "Because ‘ Belt and Road ’ There are many participating countries, and some infrastructure in these countries may not be very good. This infrastructure includes hardware infrastructure and some new infrastructure in the digital field, and these aspects may be backward. "

Experts pointed out that in order to promote the construction of the "Belt and Road", the project of Chinese enterprises to build a "Belt and Road" country was started many years ago.

Zhuang Rui said: "Through the way of development assistance, to help each other build some infrastructure, including information infrastructure, this is what China enterprises are doing, and the China municipal government also actively supports it. Countries around the world can unite to bridge this digital divide. I think the Digital Silk Road Forum is also such an original intention. "

Experts pointed out that economic development is the driving force to bridge the digital divide among countries by promoting cross-border e-commerce cooperation in the "Belt and Road" countries. Cross-border e-commerce has risen rapidly in the world and become the driving force of GDP development in various countries, and the corresponding internationalization standards are also being promoted and formulated. The introduction of these standards is also to better serve the development of cross-border e-commerce.

Chris brown, director of the British-China Business Environment Program of the British Standards Association, said: "I want to describe what kind of cross-border e-commerce standards we need. I think the key points are trust, trust between different countries, trust between manufacturers and consumers, mutual trust in payment systems, mutual trust in legal rules and mutual trust in product quality."

On the 25th anniversary of Hong Kong’s return to China, 25 buildings look at urban changes.

Recently, it coincides with the 25th anniversary of Hong Kong’s return to the motherland. The Palace Museum in Hong Kong opened, and there are more buildings in the streets of Hong Kong. From the rows of residential buildings and Tang buildings in the streets and lanes to the Bank of China Building designed by I.M. Pei and the Hong Kong International Airport of Foster Architects, these large and small buildings constitute the history of a city. This paper presents the past, present and future of Hong Kong from the perspective of architecture through 25 architectural projects in chronological order.

Hong Kong architecture is inherently public, and "publicity" is an organic part of local life. The architecture of public institutions plays a central, subtle and decisive role in the quality of the city. In the same book, Wu Xianghong explains the unique reasons behind public buildings in Hong Kong. In a crowded city, citizens are eager for good public space. Public spaces and buildings have become a part of urban life. This also urges architects and designers to think about how to use space effectively in the process of urban planning and housing design. Public buildings have become multi-purpose, multi-value and multi-level works. The mixed-use environment improves the effectiveness and flexibility of the space and optimizes the use in different periods of a year and a day.

After World War II, public housing and public buildings in Hong Kong were mostly designed or supervised by government architects in the Public Works Department at that time. Modernism in architecture appeared in the form of "brutalism" to adapt to the economic environment at that time. The public buildings in Hong Kong pay attention to firmness, machine-like efficiency and machine aesthetics, which coincides with the popular modernist style at that time. The Public Works Department was dissolved in 1982. In 1986, the government established the Architectural Services Department, which is a government department responsible for the design, supervision and maintenance of public buildings, with its own architects, engineers and surveyors. There are more and more local professionals, who design various projects to serve the public with their own understanding of the local lifestyle.

After 1970s, most of the early graduates of the Department of Architecture of Hong Kong University have entered a mature period. Local students who have lost overseas have gradually returned to Hong Kong to participate in the construction. However, Hong Kong’s sustained economic activity and frequent construction activities provide a lot of training and practice opportunities for new design forces. In the last few decades before the return to the motherland, the main investors in the construction of Hong Kong were local Chinese, and the sense of seeking roots and being local in society was high. This also urges architects to think about Hong Kong issues, face local conditions and create buildings that truly belong to Hong Kong. In the construction boom, some prominent individuals and firms have emerged. Partly because of the post-war hardships and high land prices, architects in Hong Kong generally embrace the principle of modernism. Their designs have created the general features of Hong Kong architecture: practical, economical, concise and, to some extent, pleasant.

In 1990s, the theory of globalization resounded around the world, and Hong Kong became an international city in Asia. Globalization is the guidance of transnational business and the inevitable direction of economic development. The large buildings in Central and Wan Chai are the physical symbols of this transformation process. From the 1990s to the 21st century, Hong Kong still carried out some large-scale and many seamless constructions, and improved the infrastructure facilities in Hong Kong.

The project will also connect the scattered green spaces in the city, including Hong Kong Park, Xiayan Garden and the future waterfront promenade. The Legislative Council Complex and the Chief Executive’s Office are erected on both sides, side by side with the East Block and the West Block of the Government Secretariat Building, and on both sides of the municipal park, overlooking the vast Victoria Harbour.

The cruise terminal was built on the original site of the old airport in Hong Kong, and it is also the first project that has been opened to the public in the original site reconstruction project of the airport. The design is highly flexible and makes full use of the original facilities, so that the building can be used all year round.

The core of the design lies in the rooftop park at the end of the runway of the old airport. This park is built on the top floor of the dock platform, covering an area of 23,000 square meters, with a panoramic view of Victoria Harbour. At the same time, sustainable design also runs through the whole project, including using renewable energy to generate electricity and using recycled rainwater for cooling.

Hong Kong West Kowloon Station was opened to the public in September 2018 and is one of the largest underground railway stations in the world. As the "gateway" of Hong Kong, the station should not only interact with the surrounding urban environment, but also make the passengers who arrive or leave Hong Kong feel "in Hong Kong".

The interior of the hall is like a forest. Inclined steel columns support a huge roof that seems to be suspended in the air, and 4,000 glass panels are installed to introduce natural light into the room, allowing passengers to see the city scenery outside even from the lower floor of the station.

Founded in 1962, the Hong Kong Museum of Art was originally located in Hong Kong City Hall, and moved to its present site in Tsim Sha Tsui in 1991. It is the first major cultural museum in this city. Unable to cope with the changes in the surrounding urban design, the Hong Kong Government decided to completely renovate and expand the old buildings.

The cubic form of the original building is emphasized and connected with the surrounding environment through the newly placed glass block. A new hovering canopy is set above the main entrance, and two recessed floors are set as an extension. Many early additions to the introverted old buildings were demolished, and framed glass exterior walls extending through several floors were built on the west and south sides to open the view of the port and public space to visitors.

Liu Shuoyang: a female doctor in the army who contributed to national defense and the army with a pen.

Liu Shuoyang (data map)

Cctv news  "I don’t want to fall, but I want to guard my country. I don’t want to fall, but I don’t want to see my comrades fall. The motherland needs me, and rushing up is a necessary answer for soldiers. The people need me, go up and use the never-retreating pace. "

This poem is forceful, expressing the author’s persistent love for the motherland and the people, and the responsibility and responsibility of a soldier to defend the country. Unexpectedly, however, the author of this poem was a young woman.

In February 2017, the first China National Defense Economics Person of the Year selection campaign was announced. Associate Professor Liu Shuoyang, director of the Economic Management Teaching and Research Section of the Basic Department of the Armed Police Academy, was elected as the first China National Defense Economics Person of the Year and was awarded the title of China Young National Defense Economist, becoming the only young economist in this national selection campaign and the first young economist in the Armed Police Force to receive this honor. The opening poem was written by Liu Shuoyang in tears when he saw the former battlefield after he went to Laoshan to see the school.

Some things may just be destiny takes a hand. When Liu Shuoyang was one year old, her mother made her a small military cap, hoping that Liu Shuo would grow up and become a female soldier and realize her unfulfilled long-cherished wish. In the college entrance examination, although he could choose a local key university, Liu Shuoyang applied for the military school without hesitation. This firmness and persistence were out of "love from the bones". Liu Shuoyang said: "I think I should be a soldier by nature."

He joined the army in September 1996, joined the Party in June 1999, and graduated from National Defense University with a doctorate in economics. He is currently the director and associate professor of the Economic Management Teaching and Research Section of the Armed Police Academy, a senior researcher of the China National Defense Finance Research Association, and a member of the National Security Strategy and National Defense Economic Research Committee of the China Social and Economic System Analysis Research Association. He was awarded the third class merit once, 14 times and 5 times as an excellent teacher. During his study in National Defense University, he was rated as an advanced individual in National Defense University, an outstanding student in National Defense University and an advanced individual in scientific research twice. His papers and consulting reports have won many major military and international awards, and have been given important instructions by the central leaders twice, and the suggestions made have entered the decision-making of the party and the state.

 

Courageously shouldering heavy burdens and diligently cultivating in the front line of teaching

Liu Shuoyang, as the director and associate professor of the Economic Management Department of the Armed Police College, has been working in the front line of teaching for 16 years. In the past 16 years, Liu Shuoyang has devoted himself to teaching, and his courses have been widely praised, and his efforts have also been widely recognized by leaders and students. Due to his outstanding achievements, Liu Shuoyang took the leadership position in the teaching and research section of economic management at the age of 29, and served as the deputy director of the teaching and research section, responsible for the work of the teaching and research section. He became the youngest leader of the teaching and research section of the whole college at that time and took on the heavy responsibility of leading all comrades in the teaching and research section to forge ahead.

The Police Academy of the Armed Police Force is an institution that trains talents for the gold, forest, hydropower and transportation forces of the Armed Police Force. In view of the particularity of the task requirements of the Armed Police Force, Liu Shuoyang led the Economic Management Teaching and Research Section to carry out a series of drastic reforms in terms of teaching staff, teaching material system, curriculum and teaching quality, and the overall construction of the Teaching and Research Section has reached a new level.

The practice of beating and tempering has cultivated Liu Shuoyang, and her teaching level and ability are constantly improving. In 2010, Liu Shuoyang participated in the "China-Tianjin-High" training and teaching competition of the Armed Police Force and won the second prize. In 2012, he won the third place in the teaching basic skills competition for young and middle-aged teachers in the college. Due to his outstanding teaching achievements, Liu Shuoyang has been rated as an excellent teacher for five times. In 2010, at the age of 31, Liu Shuoyang was promoted to associate professor and became the youngest associate professor in the college.

"When I was an associate professor, I was still relatively young. At that time, I just felt that the burden on my shoulders was heavier. Only by redoubling efforts can we live up to the trust of leaders and comrades, and only by making more contributions can we be worthy of the cultivation of the organization. " Liu Shuoyang said.

Striving hard to overcome difficulties is at the forefront of national defense economic research

"The academic achievements are fruitful and the scientific research ability is outstanding." It is the unanimous evaluation of Liu Shuoyang’s scientific research work and level by leaders and comrades. During his doctoral studies at National Defense University, Liu Shuoyang’s scientific research ability and level have further achieved a qualitative leap.

In recent years, Liu Shuoyang has completed a series of important scientific research tasks. After integration of defense and civilian technologies became a national strategy, Liu Shuoyang paid attention to the follow-up study on the major theoretical and practical issues of integration of defense and civilian technologies’s in-depth development, and published a series of important articles in People’s Daily Internal Reference, Xinhua News Agency’s Domestic Dynamic Sample and other important newspapers and periodicals. Among them, two important articles, "Private enterprises’ participation in integration of defense and civilian technologies’s in-depth development needs urgent support" and "Our in-depth development in integration of defense and civilian technologies needs to be guided and standardized", were given important instructions by Comrade Ma Kai, member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and vice premier of the State Council, in 2014 and 2016 respectively, which entered the decision-making of the party and the state and made important contributions to promoting "people’s participation in the army". As a result, Liu Shuoyang became the first student in the National Defense University, and so far, the only one whose consulting report has won important instructions from the party and state leaders twice, and was commended by the National Defense University.

In October 2014, with the approval of the Central Military Commission, our army fully implemented military performance management. Liu Shuoyang closely followed the progress of the military performance management pilot, conducted in-depth investigation and research in the pilot units, found problems from practice, analyzed the causes of the problems with theory, and explored solutions. In 2015, he published the important article "Difficulties in Military Performance Management Need to Be Solved" in Xinhua News Agency’s Domestic Dynamic Sample Cleaning, and delivered it to the head of the Military Commission and the former head of the General Logistics Department as a special delivery, which entered the decision-making of the headquarters and made important contributions to promoting the pilot work of military performance management, and was highly praised by the heads and organs.

Liu Shuoyang’s doctoral thesis "Research on Performance-oriented Internal Control System of Military Expenditure" puts forward the idea of establishing performance-oriented internal control system of military expenditure, and constructs the main content and realization path of performance-oriented internal control system of military expenditure, which was awarded as an excellent doctoral thesis of National Defense University.

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Supreme Leader, Chairman of the Central Military Commission, has made a series of important expositions on the development of national defense economy. With full political enthusiasm and rigorous style of study, Liu Shuoyang deeply studied Chairman Supreme Leader’s thoughts on national defense economy, and successively published such important articles as "Fundamentals of Promoting China’s National Defense Economic Development", "A New Chapter of the Party’s Guiding Theory for National Defense Economic Development" and "Grand Strategy for Promoting National Defense Economic Development" in top journals such as China Military Science and Military Economic Research, which made important contributions to the deepening of the research on Comrade Supreme Leader’s thoughts on national defense economy.

Hard work has borne rich fruits. In recent years, Liu Shuoyang has published more than 60 academic papers in People’s Daily, Economic Daily, study times, China Military Science, Journal of National Defense University, Journal of Equipment Institute, Military Economic Research, Logistics Academic, integration of defense and civilian technologies and other newspapers, and completed more than 10 national social science funds and provincial and ministerial key projects. In the past three years, Liu Shuoyang’s scientific research achievements have successively won the National Defense University Excellent Scientific Research Achievement Award, the National Defense University Excellent Works Award for Writing and Speaking, the first prize of the "Hanjiang Forum" international seminar organized by the Military Economic Research Center of the China People’s Liberation Army, the first prize of the annual project established by the National Defense Economic Research Center of the National Defense University, the first prize of the doctoral academic forum of the whole army, and the "China ‘ Frontier of national defense economy ’ Young scholars and postgraduate academic forum "second prize and other academic awards for more than 10 times.

"Scientific research is very boring, but scientific research is also very interesting and very fulfilling. As a soldier, I failed to serve the motherland on the battlefield, hoping to contribute to national defense and army building with a pen. " Liu Shuoyang said.

Liu Shuoyang, a doctor who is tireless in teaching and scientific research, is also a fighter who is tenacious and brave in the training ground; She is a gentle and elegant woman, but also a determined and strong soldier. She is not only conscientious in her teaching post, but also fruitful in her scientific research achievements, and she is equally eager for military quality. "Xiao Liu was the first female commander to compete in the training ground of National Defense University, and she led the queue class twice and won the first place", "Teacher Liu is the 100-meter fast girls of our college". Her leaders and students said so.

Can’t be red and delicate, and a uniform is even more heroic; Can’t gallop the battlefield, and a pen can also build national defense. Although Liu Shuoyang is just an ordinary female doctor in the army, she is holding up the mission of strengthening the army with loyalty, writing the feelings of strengthening the army with perseverance and practicing the dream of strengthening the army with hard work!

Independent research and development of "grinding a sword for ten years" is only for blind people to see pictures and texts.

  People’s Daily Online, Beijing, March 12 (Reporter Ding Yixin) "The touch is good, very uniform, and there is no odor." This is Liu Lili, the Paralympic Integration Manager of the Biathlon Center of this Winter Paralympic Games, who has heard the most comments from foreign athletes on the Chinese and English versions of the venue introduction manual. "Many foreign friends are interested in this in the past two days. Nearly 20 handbooks have been kept in the original venue, because many people want to keep them as souvenirs, and there are only three left at present."

  Origin: Kindness ignites the "spark" of Braille.

  Different from ordinary Braille printed matter, this manual adopts the new green Braille printing technology independently developed by China Academy of Sciences, which has better touch, antibacterial and environmental protection. Song Yanlin is the main person in charge of this technology.

  After entering the Chinese Academy of Sciences for 24 years, Song Yanlin did not study Braille printing at first. About ten years ago, he heard a little girl singing in the street and was immediately touched by the lyrics. "Later, I learned that the song was called" You are my eye "and it was about the blind." It was from then on that Song Yanlin wondered if he could do something for this group with his major.

  Born in chemical research, he aimed at the direction of Braille printing. Traditional braille printing equipment has many disadvantages, such as dependence on imports, high printing cost and easy wear. If we can break through these problems and lower the threshold of braille printing, it will bring more convenience.

  Breakthrough: Solving the Problems of Academia for Decades

  With this goal in mind, Song Yanlin and his team began to study for nearly ten years. "In fact, we spend most of our time solving some basic scientific problems that have not been broken. For example, the Marangoni effect is also a difficult problem that the academic community has discussed for decades. " By solving these scientific problems, they accurately control the formation of various patterns of ink droplets, realize the fine patterned assembly of nano-functional materials "points, lines, surfaces and bodies", and break through the accuracy limit of traditional printing technology.

  Song Yanlin and his team were boiling after learning that they could produce related products for the Beijing 2022 Paralympic Winter Games. "Of course! What we did was originally used in blind schools, and now it can be displayed on a larger world stage. Everyone is looking forward to it and is under pressure. " For this team, this is not only a job, but also a continuation of love and goodwill.

  Now, the original small wish has not only come true, but also entered the stage of international competitions, and Song Yanlin is also very proud. "Serving the Winter Olympics, helping the disabled with science and technology, different Winter Olympics, different warmth." He wrote such a copy in a circle of friends.

  Future: Let blind friends enjoy convenience in more scenes.

  "Friends who haven’t been exposed to Braille don’t know that traditional Braille feels hard and has a pungent smell. It is easy to wear and tear after a long time, and its life is not long." Song Yanlin told reporters that in order to provide more targeted help, he would also try to blindfold himself to experience the feeling of blind people reading. "When you close your eyes, your sense of smell will be particularly sensitive and the smell will be more obvious." Chemistry is Song Yanlin’s old job. His team designed special materials to make the ink not only have no irritating smell, but also increase the fragrance.

  However, the ingenuity of scientific researchers does not stop there. Even after they have achieved the precise formation of ink droplets and broken through many difficult problems in academic circles, they are not satisfied, but want to extend this technology to more application scenarios.

  Traditional Braille is printed on special high-strength fiber paper by metal washing, which is not only expensive, but also limited by materials, so it is difficult for Braille to get more applications.

  Regarding the process of braille printing, Song Yanlin gave an example of coffee stains: a drop of coffee will spread when the solid surface is dry, forming a point with thick edges and uneven middle. "This process is uncontrolled, but in our technology, by controlling the interaction between the surface of the substrate and the droplets, the whole drying behavior is controlled and accurate printing is realized. In this way, almost all kinds of solid surfaces you think of can be printed in Braille. "

  In this way, Song Yanlin and his team are also drawing a bright future blueprint for Braille printing. "In the future, Braille printing will become a more universal technology. At present, many parties have contacted us and want to add Braille tips to the packaging of food and medicine to help blind friends better integrate into society. "

Highlights in many fields help the economy to "flourish", and high-quality development condenses majestic strength.

In 2023, China’s economy withstood external pressure, overcame internal difficulties, made solid progress in recovery and high-quality development, and the main expected goals were successfully achieved. This is a hard-won report card. While expanding domestic demand, stabilizing business entities and protecting people’s livelihood, the pace of high-quality economic development in China has never stopped, and a number of bright data highlight many new development advantages. In 2024, China’s economy will continue to exert its strength on the road of high-quality development, and the pace will be more determined.

Heilongjiang: Lu Yu Northeast Leopard, a village courier, took a precious video.

Recently, a village postman in Dongning City, Heilongjiang Province, met a Northeast Leopard while passing through a rural road. He quickly recorded this precious moment with his mobile phone.

In the picture, a northeast leopard appeared beside the country road. When he saw a car coming, he was not in a hurry. He searched for a while and crossed the road into the forest. The video was shot by a village courier in Dongning City, Heilongjiang Province. He said that he often passed by Maying Village in Daduchuan Town, but it was the first time that he had close contact with the Northeast Leopard.

Yin Tieqiang, the courier, said that at that time, the incident was sudden and only an image of a Northeast Leopard was taken. Considering that the area haunted by the Northeast Leopard is close to the village and worried about the danger, he reflected the situation to the forestry department, and the police station in the jurisdiction immediately sent police to remind the villagers of safety.

It is understood that the area where the Northeast Leopard is found is located in the Northeast Tiger and Leopard National Park. In recent years, the local natural ecosystem has been protected and restored as a whole through protection priority, green development and diversified co-construction, and the population of wild Northeast Tiger and Northeast Leopard has grown steadily. At present, there are 4 Siberian tigers and 12 Siberian leopards active in this area all the year round.
