See you at 8 o'clock in the news, a little more insight. Meet you on time every morning at 8 o'clock in the morning and look out into the bigger world.

"The mountains and rivers are unharmed, and the heroes return to their hometowns." On the morning of September 2, the remains of the eighth batch of martyrs of the Chinese Volunteer Army in Korea were escorted by a special plane of our air force from South Korea back to Shenyang, Liaoning Province, and the heroic souls of 109 volunteer martyrs and 1226 related relics returned to the embrace of the motherland.

According to the South Korean military, the excavation sites of the remains of the volunteer martyrs transferred this time from 2019 to 2020 were located in the Arrow Heights in the Inter-Korean Demilitarized Zone and in The Junction of the Two Koreas, such as Liancheon, Gangwon Province, Chewon, Hwacheon and Hongcheon. The remains of the vast majority of the 109 volunteer martyrs were excavated from the Arrowhead Heights in the Inter-Korean Demilitarized Zone.

In January 2014, China and the ROK reached a consensus on the handover of the remains of the Korean Volunteers martyrs, and decided that the two sides would jointly organize the handover of the remains of the Korean Volunteers martyrs before the Qingming Festival every year. This year marks the eighth year since the work began in 2014, and the remains of 825 martyrs have returned home.

What is the special significance of choosing the time of burial this year to be in early September? According to the Ministry of Veterans Affairs, the burial time of the eighth batch of korean volunteer martyrs was determined in early September, with the purpose of vigorously promoting the heroic spirit by welcoming the return of heroes and martyrs in Korea at the beginning of the new semester.

According to the Ministry of Veterans Affairs, the repatriation of 109 remains of volunteer martyrs from South Korea is a relatively large number of years from the perspective of the number of single-year returns. In the preparatory work, some work difficulties were also encountered: first, the preparation time was tight, and second, due to the impact of the epidemic, the epidemic prevention and control requirements such as the handover and burial of the remains were more stringent than last year, which made the preparatory work face greater pressure.

In view of the work of welcoming the remains of the volunteer martyrs back to China, the Ministry of Veterans Affairs said that the next step is to further deepen cooperation and exchanges with the ROK side, actively promote the work related to the protection of the remains of the martyrs of the Korean Chinese People's Volunteer Army, continue to do a good job in the routine handover and repatriation of the remains of the volunteer martyrs, and strengthen the identification and protection of the remains of the martyrs returned to China and the collation and research of the historical materials of the relics of the martyrs of the Volunteer Army. At the same time, we will continue to do a good job in identifying the remains of martyrs who have returned to China and buried them, and search for the relatives of martyrs, and enrich and improve the DNA database of martyrs' remains.

Not long ago, 16-year-old Beijing teenager Zheng Moumou collapsed in the Tengger Desert, triggering questions about the safeguard measures and relevant qualifications of the event organizers. The reporter's investigation found that the expedition activities that Zheng participated in were related to the "background improvement" project of the application for studying abroad. Such practices have a long history, but the actual effectiveness remains questionable.

Xu Zihao, who participated in the desert expedition with Zheng Moumou, told reporters that the project involved was "Agitating the Yellow Sand - Exploring the Tengger Youth Adventure Scientific Expedition Training Camp", and the 8 participating students were from a middle school in Beijing. According to the data, the project began on July 25, and participants needed to complete the challenge of nearly 100 kilometers with weights in 7 days.

The organizers of the event had announced to the parents of the students that there was a satellite phone, but because there was no signal in the desert, the satellite phone did not play a role in this incident in time. In addition, the qualifications of the two leaders of this expedition have also been questioned. The staff of the China Exploration Association said that the two leaders had relevant qualifications.

The reporter's investigation found that the main purpose of the students involved in the above-mentioned adventure activities was related to improving the "winning rate" of the application for studying abroad. According to an article on the official website of the China Adventure Association, students who complete the project can receive "letters of recommendation for further education and internships."

Scientific expeditions and research activities have become one of the common practical activities, and most of the projects are held by study abroad intermediaries in cooperation with other companies. With practical experience, the study abroad agency will then "package" the students. In this regard, Joe Stafford, admissions officer at the University of Manchester in China, said that other experiences will also be helpful in applying for study abroad, but no experience can make up for the lower academic performance.

In addition, because many foreign schools do not have hard indicators such as score lines, study abroad intermediaries can only tell applicants about the importance of practical activities based on experience. Zhang Zhuang, an international student who had participated in similar activities, said that the intermediary was suspected of "selling anxiety", and the reason why he chose to buy this project at that time was because of the information deviation, "At that time, I was still a high school student and didn't know anything." ”

Xiong Bingqi, president of the 21st Century Education Research Institute, believes that some parents and students are still utilitarian and famous schools when dealing with education, "Naturally, there will be institutions around the packaging and operation of study abroad." Read more >>>

Shandong Provincial Disease Control recently released news that a 14-year-old teenager died of anthrax infection. The reporter's statistics found that at least 162 cases of anthrax and 2 deaths have been reported in China this year. What are the symptoms of anthrax infection in a person? Can anthrax be passed from person to person? How to prevent it?

Anthrax is a zoonotic infectious disease caused by bacteria called Bacillus anthracis. Most of the infected people are engaged in breeding and slaughtering cattle, sheep and livestock and trafficking in related products, and people engaged in fur processing and processing can also be infected with anthrax.

The initial symptoms of cutaneous anthrax are the appearance of unexplained papules or erythematos, similar to mosquito bite papules, most of which have fever symptoms, followed by blisters, swelling around, followed by central necrosis forming ulcerative black eschar, slightly itchy, timely treatment of the case fatality rate of less than 1%; intestinal anthrax is manifested as acute enteritis type or acute abdomen type; lung anthrax initially "flu-like" symptoms, and then will suddenly develop into acute disease, respiratory distress, shortness of breath, cough, cyanosis, hemoptysis, etc., can quickly appear coma and death, The mortality rate is more than 90%.

Carcasses of diseased and dead animals are the main source of infection of anthrax, and the blood, fecal and urine excreta, milk, internal organs and bones of sick and dead animals can contain a large amount of Bacillus anthracis, and when people come into contact with items that may be contaminated by the blood, excrement and other items of the sick animal, the bacteria may enter the body through tiny wounds on the skin. Anthrax can also be infected by mouth, mainly intestinal anthrax caused by ingestion of contaminated foods containing the bacteria.

Can anthrax be passed from person to person? According to china Disease Control, anthrax is generally less like the flu or new crown pneumonia between people. The probability of exposure to patients being infected is extremely low, and occasionally human-to-human transmission.

Anthrax can be effectively treated with antibiotics. The key to treatment lies in early detection, early diagnosis, early treatment, and it is difficult to treat in the advanced stage, especially when systemic hemorrhage symptoms occur. For the prevention of anthrax, disease control in many places suggests that the most important thing is not to contact the source of infection. Do not buy, dispose of, and eat meat and sewage from informal channels such as street vendors, and do not share known sick and dead animal meat. Read the full >>>

Domestic theme parks are mainly concentrated in the Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta and Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei regions. After the opening of Universal Beijing Resort, the theme park in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei stood at the forefront of market competition. In the view of industry insiders, Universal Beijing Resort will inevitably affect the flow of visitors to other theme parks at the beginning of the opening of the park. In response, Beijing Happy Valley promotes annual passes in the form of discounts. The preferential period for the purchase of its annual pass has been relaxed to April 3 to October 8, and the price has also been reduced from the preferential price in 2019.

In the eyes of industry insiders, the opening of Universal Beijing Resort will further force the domestic theme park to become boutique. After the landing of Shanghai Disney Resort, the domestic theme park IP ushered in an unprecedented degree of discussion. After the opening of Universal Beijing Resort, local theme parks may face the proposition of "how to make their own things" more deeply.

In the view of Lin Huanjie, president of the China Theme Park Research Institute, domestic theme parks need to take the national cultural route. "It is impossible for a local theme park to 'support the field' by introducing a foreign IP, but can only do Chinese culture, seek resonance by excavating Chinese culture, and ultimately achieve cultural output." Chen Shaofeng, vice president of the Institute of Cultural Industries at Peking University, suggested that Chinese cultural elements can be borrowed from Hollywood, "by drawing on foreign experiences, and then making new integrations with traditional culture, and making innovations through the combination of East and West."
