The year 2022 will be a big year for sports in China. That's because it will hold not only the 24th Winter Olympics in Beijing, but also the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou.
On August 6, 2018, the official emblem (会徽) for the Hangzhou Asian Games was released. The city won the hosting right for the 2022 Asian Games in 2015. It will be the third Chinese city to host the Asian Games after Beijing and Guangzhou in 1990 and 2010.
People first held the Asian Games in 1951. It is the largest multi-sport (综合体育) event in Asia. It also means a lot to China, China News Service noted.
To make the Games a great success, Chinese people worked hard to prepare. Beijing built a great number of roads and stadiums, including the famous Beijing Olympic Sports Centre and Asian Games Village.
The Games helped the world see China and its achievements. Since then, China has improved its global image, China Youth Daily reported.
For the coming 2022 Asian Games, Hangzhou has already started building 33 sports venues (场馆) , according to The Paper. The themes of the Hangzhou Asian Games are "green, smart, economical (节俭) and civilized (文明) ". All the Games' buildings will be environmentally friendly (有利于环境的) .
I've never been the kind of person to say, "It's the thought counts" (贵在心意) when it comes to gifts. That was until a couple of weeks ago when my kids gave me a present that blew me away.
For years now. I've been wanting to sell our home, the place where my husband and I raised our kids. But to me, this house is much more than just building.
In the front room, there is a wall that has hundreds of pencil lines, marking the progress of my children's growth. Every growth stage is marked in grey, with each child's name and the date on which they were measured. Of all the objects and all the memories. It's this one thing that's the hardest to leave behind. Friends I know have returned home after work only to discover their wall of heights that has been freshly painted over. A new paint job wouldn't normally be greeted by tears, but erasing that evidence (证据) of motherhood hurts more than it should. Our kids grow in so many ways, but the wall is a piece of physical evidence of their progress, right there for everyone to see.
Over the years, I've talked about how much I would hate leaving that wall behind when I moved, even thought the last marks were made ten years ago when my kids stopped growing.
So one day, my children decided to do something about it.
They hired Jacquie Manning, a professional photographer whose work is about capturing (拍摄) the beautiful things in life, from clear lakes and skies to diamonds and ball gowns. She came to our house while I was at work, and over several hours, took photos of the hundreds of drawings and lines, little grey fingerprints and old marks. Somehow, she managed to photograph all those years of memories perfectly. Afterwards, she put all the photos together into one image (影像), turning them into a beautiful history of my family.
Three weeks later, my children's wonderful gift made its way to me—a life-size-photo of the pencil lines and fingerprints that represents (代表) love and growth.

There is a "murderer" among us. You may wonder what is happening. Let me tell you!
If you get on the Murder Mystery Lunch Train from London's Victoria Station, you will surely have such an "experience". Passengers take part in a detective (侦探) game and find out the "murderer" on their way to Kent.
Before the passengers get on the train, a gentleman named Gray will greet them in front of the train. He is dressed in grey with a cat in his arms. Gray will be the first actor to meet the passengers. He will have a chat with them and drop some clues (线索) .
As soon as train leaves Victoria Station, a woman will run into the carriage (车厢) and cry, "I have been stabbed (刺伤) !" Then a young man called Matt will rush into the carriage and shout, "There's been a 'murder'!" Then passengers will have time to question the characters, including a detective, a newspaper reporter and a policeman, about what's going on.
After the meal, all the passengers will sit together and put forward their own ideas of the "murderer". Those who are able to solve the case can get a bottle of champagne (香槟) as a reward (奖励) .
One ticket for the Murder Mystery Lunch Train costs about $310. The price includes a five-course lunch with champagne and wine. The game doesn't sound very expensive, but the question is that it is difficult to book a ticket because the train is now very popular. After all, many people have a detective dream, don't they?
