Revenues from snow-themed travel are forecast to witness rapid growth this winter, as operators offer improved services and consumers indicate increased enthusiasm for hitting the slopes following the country's optimized COVID-19 response measures.预计今年冬季，冰雪主题旅游的收入会迅速增长，随着旅游景点服务不断优化，在国家防疫政策优化后，消费者对滑雪运动的热情不断上涨。Since the holding of the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games, teenagers and young children have shown a greater interest in skiing-related activities.自2022年北京冬季奥运会举办以来，青少年和儿童对与滑雪有关的活动表现出巨大的兴趣。Chinese people born in the 1990s and after the year 2000 are the main groups of skiers, according to Nanjing, Jiangsu province-based online travel agency Tuniu.根据位于江苏省南京市的在线旅行社“途牛”的信息，滑雪爱好者主要是九零后和零零后。The number of bookings for skiing-related services made by these two age groups put together accounts for 60 percent of the total such bookings, and the number of children who have gone skiing with their parents is on the rise, Tuniu said.途牛表示，九零后和零零后预定的滑雪相关服务数量占总预订量的60％，与父母同行，开展滑雪运动的儿童数量正在增加。Eyeing the trend of Chinese consumers' higher enthusiasm for skiing, Swiss luxury watchmaker IWC Schaffhausen organized a day on the slopes for young skiers in early December.瞄准中国消费者上涨的滑雪热情，12月初，瑞士豪华手表制造商沙夫豪森IWC组织了一次针对年轻滑雪者的活动，为期一天。The company's brand ambassador, freestyle skier Eileen Gu, showed children how to improve their skiing skills at the Genting Snow Park in Zhangjiakou, Hebei province, during the event.公司的品牌大使、自由式滑雪运动员谷爱凌在活动期间在河北省张家口市的云顶雪公园向儿童们讲授如何提高滑雪技能。IWC said it was the second skiing class it had held with Gu in 2023, after hosting one in Colorado, the United States, earlier in the year.IWC表示，这是公司2023年第二次与谷爱凌共同举办滑雪课程，第一次的举办地在美国科罗拉多州。This reflects the company's commitment to helping children believe in themselves through sports, it said.这体现了公司致力于通过体育帮助儿童变得更加自信。"We strongly believe sport is important for the integration of children. It unites them, gives them confidence and can help them feel good about themselves. So, it means a lot to us to be able to create environments where children can experience the fun and joy of sport," said Franziska Gsell, chief marketing officer of IWC.IWC的首席营销官弗朗西斯卡·吉塞尔（音译）表示：“我们坚信，体育在增进儿童之间的凝集力方面至关重要。体育团结儿童，给予他们信心，帮助他们变得更加自信。因此，我们重视创造运动环境，让儿童在其中体验运动的乐趣。”China is one of the most dynamic luxury markets for the company and IWC is confident about its operations in the country, it said.中国是IWC最具活力的高端市场之一，该公司对其在中国的运营充满信心。During the ongoing skiing season, there has been high demand for skiing-related activity from residents in Shanghai, Beijing, Nanjing, and Guangzhou and Shenzhen in Guangdong province, Tuniu found.当前正处于滑雪季，途牛的数据显示，上海、北京、南京、广州和深圳的市民对滑雪相关活动的需求旺盛。The widespread popularity of ice and snow sports and the emergence of indoor ski resorts and snow parks have enabled people from the southern regions of China to experience skiing-related activities at any time of the year, it said.途牛指出，冰雪运动的普及，室内滑雪场和雪公园的发展，使得华南地区的人们可以在任何季节开展与滑雪相关的活动。Popular domestic destinations for snowboarders include Northeast China, Yunnan province, Guizhou province and the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region.国内热门的滑雪目的地有：东北地区、云南省、贵州省和新疆维吾尔自治区。Overseas destinations for ice and snow trips have also caught the attention of Chinese travelers.海外冰雪胜地也吸引着中国游客。Some sought-after destinations include Finland, Switzerland, Denmark, Norway and Iceland.热门的滑雪目的地包括芬兰、瑞士、丹麦、挪威和冰岛。Tuniu said all of its group tours to Finland in November and December were sold out, and some travelers have even booked trips for March.途牛表示，该公司旗下11月和12月所有赴芬兰的旅游团名额均已售罄，一些旅行者甚至已经预订了三月的行程。In addition, young Chinese consumers have been attracted to high-end hot springs in the winter season.此外，冬季，年轻的中国消费者青睐高端温泉。In designing its domestic group-tour products, Tuniu said it combines the preferences of travelers and the advantages of destinations, while also adding hot spring resorts or hot spring-themed hotels in its itineraries.途牛表示，在设计国内团队旅游产品时，他们结合了游客的偏好和旅游目的地的优势，在行程中设置温泉度假村或以温泉为主题的酒店。"An increasing number of Chinese consumers are no longer satisfied with traditional hot spring experiences, and they are seeking more diversified, personalized and high-quality hot spring vacation products," said Qi Chunguang, vice-president of Tuniu.途牛的副总裁齐春光表示：“越来越多的中国消费者不再满足于传统的温泉体验，他们正在寻求更多样化、个性化和高质量的温泉度假产品。”Moreover, the accelerated recovery of the outbound tourism market and supply of increasingly premium products has meant that bookings of overseas hot spring tours by Chinese travelers are also climbing.此外，出境旅游市场的加速复苏和日益优化的产品供应，增加了中国游客对海外温泉游的预订量。In November, the number of bookings for outbound hot spring tours accounted for 15 percent of the total orders for overseas tours, Tuniu found.途牛的数据显示，11月，出境温泉游的预订数量占海外旅游总订单量的15％。Hot springs in a number of Japanese cities such as Nagoya and Hakone have received good bookings, while some unique hot spring experiences in Iceland, Switzerland, Thailand and Turkiye have also seen significant increases in bookings, said the travel agency.途牛表示，一些日本城市，如名古屋和箱根的温泉广受欢迎，而冰岛、瑞士、泰国和土耳其的一些特色温泉游的预订量也显著上升。Hot springsn. 温泉

You need an anabolic environment” “Really with BFR, it is the first set is the key when you are doing low load continuous BFR and I think we should let go of the 30 reps, but you need to go for this feeling of fullness and maybe 1 rep short of technical fatigue” SHOWNOTES 1) Chris' updates on what he has been doing since our last episode (#30) including insights into the COVID State of Origin rugby league series 2) A quick introduction to skeleton racing 3) Going from just getting athletes strong to focusing on specific muscular contractions (e.g., eccentric, isometric and concentric) 4) Methods of eccentric and isometric contraction work 5) How to measure the intensity of isometric work and the simplest explanation for yielding/hold and overcoming/push isometrics 6) A case study with Beijing Winter Olympics silver medalist Jacqueline Naracott and the unique combination of isometrics, bands and blood flow restriction 7) How Chris has progressed his Blood Flow Restriction work with athletes, especially in rehab space with another case study featuring Cedric Dubler 8) The use of different rep ranges with blood flow restriction besides just high rep ranges 9) Letting go as strength & conditioning coaches and implementing things from other coaches 10) More resources, including practical implementations, on blood flow restriction PEOPLE MENTIONED Wayne Bennett Cedric Dubler Stephen Bird Jacqueline Naracott Adam Storey Ben Patrick Alex Natera Yuri Verkoshanksy Angus McIntyre
Argentine and Paris Saint-Germain footballer Lionel Messi added two prestigious awards to his already illustrious list of achievements, winning the Laureus World Sportsman and the World Team of the Year at the grand ceremony on Monday.5月8日的盛大颁奖典礼上，效力于巴黎圣日耳曼的阿根廷足球运动员莱昂内尔·梅西获得了劳伦斯年度最佳男运动员奖和年度世界最佳团队奖，在他已经很辉煌的成就名单上再添两项殊荣。The 35-year-old veteran, who led Argentina to World Cup victory last year in Qatar, became the first-ever athlete to sweep both awards in the same year.这位35岁的老将在2022年卡塔尔世界杯中带领阿根廷队夺得冠军，成为有史以来第一位在同一年包揽这两个奖项的运动员。Chinese freeskier Gu Ailing, a two-time gold medal winner at the Beijing Winter Olympic Games last year, captured the Action Sportsperson of the Year award.在2022年北京冬奥会上获得两枚金牌的中国自由式滑雪运动员谷爱凌获得了最佳极限运动员奖项。The World Cup-winning captain Messi, who shared the men's prize with Lewis Hamilton in 2020, defeated other nominees including 21-time tennis Grand Slam winner Rafael Nadal, current Formula One world champion Max Verstappen, world record holder in pole vault Mondo Duplantis, basketball player Stephen Curry, and French football international Kylian Mbappe to secure the award for a second time.曾在2020年与刘易斯·汉密尔顿共享年度最佳男运动员奖的世界杯冠军队长梅西击败了其他提名者，包括21次网球大满贯得主拉菲尔·纳达尔、现任一级方程式赛车世界冠军马克斯·维斯塔潘、撑杆跳世界纪录保持者蒙多·杜普兰蒂斯、 篮球运动员斯蒂芬·库里和法国足球国脚基利安·姆巴佩，这是梅西第二次获得年度最佳男运动员奖。"It's an honour, especially since the Laureus World Sports Awards are taking place this year in Paris, the city that welcomed me and my family," Messi said. "I would like to thank all my teammates, not only those of the national team but also those of PSG. I have not accomplished anything alone and I am grateful to be able to share all this with them."梅西说：“这是一种荣誉，尤其是今年劳伦斯体育奖在巴黎举行，这座城市很欢迎我和我的家人。” “我要感谢我所有的队友，不仅是国家队的队友，还有巴黎圣日耳曼的队友。我一个人不可能取得这样的成就，我很感激能与他们分享这一切。”Messi scored seven goals, including two in the final, and won the Golden Ball in Qatar last December when he led the South American team to their third World Cup title. The Argentine men's football team was given a team award at Laureus.在2022年12月的卡塔尔世界杯中，梅西攻入七球，决赛中攻入两球，带领阿根廷队第三次获得世界杯冠军，他个人也赢得了卡塔尔金球奖。阿根廷男子足球队在劳伦斯获得年度世界最佳团队奖。"And I'm even happier to see that the team I was part of at the World Cup was also honoured by the Laureus Academy tonight," Messi added. "For us, the World Cup was an unforgettable adventure; I cannot describe what it felt like to return to Argentina and see what our victory had brought to our people."梅西补充说：“让我感到更开心的是，世界杯上我效力的球队也得到了劳伦斯奖的认可。”“对于我们来说，那是一次难忘的冒险，我难以形容回到阿根廷以后看到我们的胜利给阿根廷人民带来的影响时的心情。”Jamaican sprinter Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, who clinched a fifth world 100m title at Eugene last August, picked up the women's individual award, while tennis US Open champion Carlos Alcaraz was named the best breakthrough of the year.2022年8月在尤金获得第五个100米世界冠军的牙买加短跑选手谢莉-安·弗雷泽-普莱斯获得了年度最佳女运动员奖，而美网男单冠军卡洛斯·阿尔卡拉斯获得劳伦斯年度最佳突破奖。Gu, the first athlete to win three medals in freestyle skiing at a single Olympic Games, was awarded the Action Sportsperson, a prize given to the best athlete in extreme sports of the year.谷爱凌是第一位在单届奥运会上获得三枚自由式滑雪奖牌的运动员，她被授予最佳极限运动员奖，这是一项授予年度极限运动中最佳运动员的奖项。"It's a huge honor to me," said the 19-year-old, who worked on her homework for eight hours on her flight to Paris since she is also pursuing academics at Stanford University.“这对我来说是莫大的荣幸，” 19岁的谷爱凌说，她还在斯坦福大学学习，在飞往巴黎的航班上，她花了8个小时做功课。"I don't want to simply be celebrating this beautiful trophy here today, but also to be speaking to the value that sports have brought to my life and to help contribute that love and passion, confidence and resilience, everything that sports have taught me to more people," Gu told Xinhua.“我今天不想只是在这里庆祝我个人获得的荣誉，而是更希望把体育带给我人生的正能量、教会我的一切传递给更多的人，比如爱、激情、自信和坚韧。”谷爱凌向新华社表示。Manchester United and Denmark midfielder Christian Eriksen won Comeback of the Year following his return to football after collapsing on the pitch due to cardiac arrest during Euro 2020.曼彻斯特联队和丹麦队的中场球员克里斯蒂安·埃里克森在2020年欧洲杯期间因心脏骤停在球场上倒下后重返足坛，他赢得了年度最佳复出奖。At the start of 2022, the tough fighter was without a club, and his future in the game was uncertain. But he managed to end the year playing every minute of Denmark's World Cup campaign and earning a regular place in the Man United squad.2022年伊始，埃里克森手无寸铁，赛场前途未卜。但他在2022年结束时打满了丹麦队在世界杯的每一分钟，并在曼联队中赢得了固定位置。The Laureus Award was founded in 2000 to celebrate sporting excellence during the past year. This year's ceremony was held in person after the previous two editions were conducted online due to the COVID-19 pandemic.劳伦斯奖成立于2000年，旨在表彰过去一年体育方面的成就。由于新冠疫情，前两届的劳伦斯奖颁奖典礼在网上举行，今年的颁奖典礼则改为线下举行。Nominee英/ˌnɒmɪˈniː/ 美/ˌnɑːmɪˈniː/n.被提名者Academy英/əˈkædəmi/ 美/əˈkædəmi/n.研究院，学会

Bilateral trade rose to $124.4 billion in 2021, increasing nearly 60 percent year-on-year.记者：徐伟

The story of Gu, together with a good number of athletes who are representing countries which are not where they are originally from, is creating debate in the international media over the issue of sports and nationality.

王濛解说哪句最好笑？三个字：每句话！｜Which commentary of Wang Meng is the most funny? Every word!With the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games underway, Wang Meng, a four-time short track speed skating Olympic champion, is once again winning waves ofhurrahsfrom millions of Chinese viewers. But this time, the praise is not for herprowesson the ice, but on the microphone as she delivers passionate, humorous and unique commentary on the events.随着2022年北京冬奥会的到来，我国短道速滑名将、冬奥四金得主王濛，再次赢得了数百万中国观众的喝彩。但这次并不是因为其高超的速滑技巧，而是她充满激情、风趣幽默和独具一格的赛事解说。 As China won its first gold medal in the 2,000-meter short track skating mixed relay on Saturday, Wang's commentary, full of her signature straightforwardwitdelivered with a strong Northeast China accent,wowedmany netizens and created major buzz on Sina Weibo, the country's Twitter-like platform.2月5日，中国短道速滑混合接力队拿下本届冬奥会男女混合2000米接力项目金牌，为中国代表团赢得首金。王濛的解说带着浓重的东北口音，她标志性的直爽和机智，赢得了许多网友的喝彩，并在微博上引起了热议。By Tuesday, there were some 80 topics involving Wang on the platform. One, which specifically tagged Wang's commentary, has obtained more than 1.8 billion views.截至2月8日，微博平台上已经出现了约80个和王濛相关的话题，其中一个的标题就是“王濛解说”，阅读量已经超过了18亿。Paired with Huang Jianxiang, a popular Chinese sports commentator, Wang, one of China's mostdecoratedOlympic athletes, started her commentary career on the first day of the short track speed skating competition via Migu, a subsidiary of China Mobile that provides digital content and related services.作为中国获得奥运会金牌最多的运动员之一，王濛与中国知名体育解说员黄健翔一起，在短道速滑比赛的第一天就通过咪咕开启了她的解说员生涯。咪咕是中国移动旗下，负责数字内容及相关领域服务的子公司。 During the race, Wang, from Northeast China's Heilongjiang province, barely sat down. She jumped up and down, waved her arms and cheered for the Chinese team.在比赛过程中，这位来自黑龙江省的东北女孩没有坐下。她跳跃着，挥动着手臂为中国队加油。 With a northeastern accent, Wang shouted: "Go! Come on! You can always trust the Chinese short track speeding skating team!" She encouraged each member and called them by their nicknames, which led to her receiving countless thumbs-ups and laughs on Migu.“你永远可以相信中国短道速滑队！”王濛用那一口东北腔呐喊着。她叫着队员们的昵称，不断鼓励着他们，给观众带来了无尽的欢乐，也让她在咪咕上收获了无数赞美。 When skater Wu Dajing crossed the finish line and was waiting for the final result, Wang slapped the table and roared: "My eyes are like rulers. I'm sure China has won!"当中国选手武大靖冲过终点线等待最终结果时，王濛拍桌大喊：“我的眼睛就是尺我告诉你们，肯定赢了！” The comment quickly became a catchphrase on Chinese social media, helping the 37-year-old attract even more viewers.这一金句迅速成为中国社交媒体上的流行语，给这位37岁的解说员带来了更多观众。Lei Min, a civil servant in Beijing, is one of them.北京市民雷明（音译）是其中的一员。"I downloaded the Migu app just to hear Wang's commentary," she said. "Her passionate explanation of the competitions made me feel like I was also engaged in the Games.“我下载咪咕App就是为了听王濛的解说。”他说，“她对比赛激情四射的解说让我觉得自己身临其境。”"As a veteran skater, Wang's commentary is professional. But her biggest attraction for me is that she explains technical skills related to short track speed skating in a way that everyone can understand and accept.“作为一名经验丰富的短道速滑运动员，王濛的解说是专业的。但对我来说，她最大的吸引力在于，她以一种人人都能理解和接受的方式解释了与短道速滑有关的技术技巧。”"I'm convinced by her professionalism, and I'm ignited by her passion."“我为她的专业精神所折服，也被她的热情点燃。” A Weibo user using the name Xixi 2002 recorded funny discussions between Wang and Huang in her post, saying that almost every conversation between the two was interesting and classic. She also imitated Wang, adding that: "You can always trust the commentary of Wang and Huang."一位名为“汐汐2002”的微博用户记录下了王濛和黄健翔之间有趣的对话，表示两人句句包袱，句句经典。她也模仿王濛补充道：“你可以永远相信王濛和黄健翔搭档的解说。” Wang's commentary during Sunday's AFC Women's Asian Cup soccer final was also a hot topic online, with some netizens describing it as cross-talk, a form of Chinese comedy.2月6日，王濛对女足亚洲杯决赛的解说也成为了网上的热门话题，一些网友将其描述为相声（中国的一种喜剧形式）。 LazyXuuu, another Weibo user, said in a post on Monday that the rhythm of Wang's commentary is wonderful, and her humorous introductions of the skaters are especially memorable.另一位微博用户LazyXuuu 2月7日发博表示，王濛的解说节奏非常好，对选手们幽默的介绍尤其令人难忘。 "Besides quickly catching changes in competitions and explaining them to viewers, Wang can inspire viewers when Chinese teams fall behind, and can help them focus more on the athletes' efforts rather than the results," the netizen commented, adding that Wang promotes understanding between the skaters and audience.“除了快速捕捉比赛中的变化并向观众解释外，王濛还能在中国队落后时鼓励观众，帮助他们更多地关注运动员的努力，而不是唯金牌论。”这位网友还补充道，王濛促进了运动员和观众之间的共鸣和理解。 The post has been forwarded more than 9,700 times and obtained more than 100,000 thumbs-ups by Tuesday.截至2月8日，这篇微博被转发了9700多次，点赞数超过了10万。Wang won four gold medals in the women's 500m, 1,000m and 3,000m relay at two Winter Olympic Games (Turin 2006 and Vancouver 2010). She retired after the 2014 Sochi Games.在2006年都灵冬奥会和2010年温哥华冬奥会上，王濛收获了短道速滑女子500米、1000米和3000米接力的四枚金牌。2014年索契冬奥会后，她选择了退役。hurrah英 [həˈrɑ:]；美 [hʊˈrɑ,-ˈrɔ,hə-]int.好哇;万岁prowess英 [ˈpraʊəs]；美 [ˈpraʊəs]n.英勇;高超技艺wit英[wɪt]；美[wɪt]n.风趣;才思;理解力;智力;明智wow英 [waʊ]；美 [waʊ]v.使叫绝;博得…的称赞decorate英 [ˈdekəreɪt]；美 [ˈdekəreɪt]v.授予…勋章(或其他荣誉)

Another Democrat darling was caught with her mask down. Democratic failed gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams posted a picture on social media of herself without a mask and surrounded by children wearing masks. What happen to masking at all times, Stacey? The 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games are not looking good on ratings and the welfare of the athletes. Reports say that the viewership declined about 43% and advertising demographics took a plunge as well. Why is China hosting the games? Whoopi Goldberg was suspended from “The View,” and reports are coming out that Whoopi is educating herself about the Holocaust. And in a WTF segment, the Penn women's swim team has had enough when it comes to Lia Thomas and asks the NCAA to protect them from men in women's sports. Will the NCAA step in?

Ten or 20 years ago, persecution of Christians in China varied greatly across China's 31 provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions. Bob Fu—a former teacher at the Communist Party School in Beijing and prisoner for Christ in China—says things are much different today. Chinese Christian persecution is driven by the national government in Beijing; every province is expected to control religious expression. Fu is the Founder and President of China Aid Association and author of God's Double Agent. Listen as he shares how the communist government has cracked down on Christians in recent years and how Christians have suffered ahead of the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games. Bob says persecution of Christians in China today is the worst it's been since the 1960s and 70s Cultural Revolution. Xi Jinping and other officials are increasing efforts to imprison and detain unregistered church leaders and members—but leaders in state-sanctioned TSPM churches are also persecuted. Communist ideology is also enforced through digital surveillance. Every Chinese person is required to install a “health app” on their phone, and surveillance cameras throughout the country monitor movement. Online meetings with any religious purpose are now required to register and be approved by provincial authorities, and Bible apps have been forbidden. As the eyes of the world turn toward China during the Games, join Christians around the world to pray for Chinese Christians—and for their persecutors.

The pledge by the Beijing Winter Olympic Games to go green has been widely acclaimed. COVID-19 protocols are in place to guarantee safety as most Chinese people start to make their way back to work from the Lunar New Year holiday. And Chinese snowboarder Su Yiming makes history by winning a silver medal in the slopestyle competition.
China's Gu Ailing won the gold medal in the Beijing 2022 women's freeski Big Air final on Tuesday. This is the third gold medal for Team China at the Beijing Winter Olympic Games.

As China kicks off the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games with what is promised to be a "very different" opening ceremony from the one 14 years ago, the context under which the Winter Games are held also could not be more contrasting to that of the 2008 Summer Olympics. Not only will the event be subject to the most comprehensive Covid-19 countermeasures ever seen in international sports but the Games have also been shrouded by much controversy regarding China's human rights record – all taking place against the backdrop of intensifying geopolitical jostling between Beijing and Washington. In this week's podcast, join our Lead Asia-Pacific Analyst Dr Guo Yu, and fellow APAC Analysts, Aédán Mordecai and Hans Horan, as we discuss the broad geopolitical and security risks connected to the Beijing Winter Olympic Games.

Beset by boycotts, allegations of human rights violations and COVID-19, the Beijing Winter Olympic Games are underway. These Olympics mark the first time any city has hosted both the Winter and Summer Games. But it's is the most contentious Olympics in decades, with the United States leading a diplomatic boycott over China's human rights record. Beijing has condemned the boycott and is using the event to display the strengthening ties with Russia, with Xi Jinping expressing support for Moscow's stance on NATO and Ukraine. How will controversies affect the Games? Guests: Einar Tangen Political and Economic Affairs Commentator John Bradley Sports Commentator and Player Welfare Advocate Ashok Swain Professor of Peace and Conflict Research at Uppsala University

In this special edition, we'll take a look at what athletes are saying about their journey to the Beijing Winter Olympic Games.
It feels like the 2020 Tokyo Olympics were on 2 seconds ago - and they basically were because of COVID delays. But it's time to get set for the next round - the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing. And there's a lot going on, including international politics, human rights issues, the pandemic, and environmental concerns. And, of course, a big global sporting event where Aussies will compete for the medals... So in this Squiz Shortcut, we cover issues like why Australia and other nations are staging a diplomatic boycott, as well as taking a look at the sporting side and Australia's chances on the podium.Squiz Shortcuts is your backstory to the big news stories.Squiz recommends:Cool Runnings movie - available on Disney+Sport Today's Beijing Blitz podcast See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
A high school has banned “early marks” while teachers have been told to crack down on students vaping in the classroom “and exhaling out the windows” amid a 771 per cent increase in e-cigarette incidents in schools. Home-seekers will need to earn nearly $200,000 a year to be able to afford the typical Sydney house following another explosion in property prices last year. A woman who claims to have handed her baby son to a woman in a Sydney convenience store has been jailed for six months after refusing to reveal the whereabouts of the boy. And heavyweight global broadcasters who have paid tens of billions of dollars for the rights to the Beijing Winter Olympic Games are dramatically scaling back news coverage of sensitive Chinese issues, amid a nervousness about the safety of staff on the ground.

This is Covid 411, the latest on Omicron and other COVID variants, and new hotspots for January 26th, 2022.The U.S. administration has thrown in the towel, withdrawing its rule requiring workers at big companies get vaccinated or face regular testing. The rule would have impacted more than 80 million U.S. workers and was to go into effect January 4. The Supreme Court halted the plan saying the Occupational Safety and Health Administration overstepped its authority.The battle over facemasks in schools rages on in New York. An appeals judge restored the mask mandate one day after a judge in a lower court ruled the state lacked the constitutional authority to order people to wear face coverings. The governor's office is appealing the decision.Pfizer and BioNTech have started a clinical trial to evaluate a new vaccine specific to Omicron. Current vaccines protect against serious illness and death, but Omicron has had no problem breaking through the vaccines to spread itself. The study will include as many as 1,420 participants.Whether or not they work or add extra protection, most health officials say they do, America isn't so hot on getting booster shots. The CDC says only 40% of fully vaccinated Americans have gotten a booster. And the average number of booster shots given per day has plunged from 1 million in early December to about 490,000 as of last week. Some analysts blame confusion amongst a sea of changing recommendations and guidance.If you watch the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games from your couch, you'll be as close to the action as the sports commentators you're listening to.

社评：坚持防控保民生，迎战奥密克戎｜Omicron rings alarmAnyang, a city with a population of 5 million in Henan province, was locked down on Monday. It is the third city to hit the pause button in China over the past month, highlighting the challenge the country still faces in its fight against the novel coronavirus.拥有500万居民的河南省安阳市已经于10日起进入封锁状态。安阳是在过去一个月里第三个按下暂停键的城市，这意味着中国在抗击新冠疫情上仍面临重大挑战。There were 110 locally transmitted infections reported in the Chinese mainland on Monday, among which 87 were in Henan, 13 in Shaanxi province and 10 in Tianjin. As of Tuesday noon, Tianjin has reported a total of 97 cases since last weekend.1月10日0至24时，31个省（自治区、直辖市）和新疆生产建设兵团报告新增本土病例110例（其中河南87例，陕西13例，天津10例）。截至11日12时，在过去一周内，天津市共报告新冠肺炎病毒感染者97例。 ▲ A medical worker takes swab sample for COVID-19 tests at a testing site in Zhengzhou, Central China's Henan province, Jan 10, 2022.

Thanks to its perseverance and inputs into its zero-case strategy, particularly the over 80 percent vaccinationrate, the last death caused by the virus on the mainland dates back to January last year.很多国家早已向新冠病毒投降，但中国作为唯一一个采用“清零”政策对抗新冠肺炎疫情的大国，一直凭借反应快速掌控着主动权。正是由于对“清零”政策的坚持和付出，尤其是疫苗接种率超过80%，从去年1月至今，大陆还未有死亡病例出现。As such, although the number of infections are low, the lockdowns are not unreasonable. Particularly since the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games will soon open and the Lunar New Year holiday is just three weeks away and this is a peak travel period.同样地，尽管感染人数很少，决定封城仍然是合理的。特别是考虑到2022年北京冬奥会即将开幕，并且三周后的春节假期又将带来出行高峰。Notably, the cases in Tianjin and Anyang are the highly infectious Omicron variant of the virus, and according to the Tianjin epidemic prevention and control department, the variant might have been transmitting in the port city with a population of 14 million for at least two weeks before it was identified last weekend, with the origin of the infections remaining unknown. That the cases in Anyang can be traced back to Tianjin means the cross-region transmission of the Omicron variant is already a reality. Neighboring Beijing and Hebei provinces must be on the highest alert.值得注意的是，天津和河南安阳的感染病例属于高传染性的奥密克戎变异株。根据天津市疫情防控部门通告，这起疫情在被发现前，有可能已经在这个有1400万人口的港口城市传播了至少两周。此外，安阳的病例可以追溯到天津，这意味着奥密克戎变异株的跨区域传播已经成为现实。邻近的北京和河北省必须处于最高警戒状态。 ▲ A child accompanied by a parent gets a nucleic acid test in Tianjin's Xiqing district on Sunday.

Photo/Xinhua9日，在天津市西青区，一名儿童在父母的陪伴下接受核酸检测取样。天津已经在全市范围内开展全员核酸检测。新华社 摄A national transport hub in Central China, Henan has every reason to take strict measures to cut the transmission chains of the virus in its jurisdiction as is being done in the provincial capital Zhengzhou and neighboring Xuchang. Without such efforts, Henan could easily become a steppingstone for the virus to extend its transmission chains nationwide, which would undo what the country has achieved over the past two years.作为中部地区的交通枢纽，河南完全有理由在其管辖范围内采取严格措施，切断病毒的传播链，就像其省会郑州及相邻的许昌所做的那样。如果没有这些疫情防控措施，河南很容易成为病毒传播链向全国延长的关键一环, 这将使得中国在过去两年中所取得的抗疫成就付诸东流。The tranquility of people's lives in the rest of the country is partly attributable to those bravely fighting on the front line in the affected regions. But the battle against the virus is a people's war, and people are either already engaged in the fight in some capacity or in reserve.全国其他地区人民生活的平静和安宁有一部分要归功于奋战在抗疫一线的工作人员。但与病毒的斗争是一场人民的战争。人们要么已经以某种身份参与战斗，要么正准备参与战斗。The whole country must raise its vigilance again and overcome any sluggishness or complacency, as now is another critical phase in the seesaw battle with the virus that treats all encounters as its first.目前正处于抗疫拉锯战的又一个关键阶段，全国上下要像初次面对疫情一样，提高警惕，克服任何懈怠或自满情绪。perseverance 英 [ˌpɜːsəˈvɪərəns]; 美 [ˌpɜːrsəˈvɪrəns]n. 毅力，不屈不挠的精神steppingstone 英[ˈstepɪŋˌstəʊn]；美 [ˈstep.ɪŋ ˌstoʊn]n.踏脚石；进身之阶；达到目的的手段tranquility英[træŋˈkwɪləti]；美[træŋˈkwɪləti]n.宁静，安宁vigilance英[ˈvɪdʒɪləns]；美[ˈvɪdʒɪləns]n.警戒，警觉；失眠症sluggishness 英[ˈslʌɡɪʃnəs]；美[ˈslʌɡɪʃnəs]n.迟缓；惰性；萧条complacency英[kəmˈpleɪsnsi];美[kəmˈpleɪsnsi]n. 自满，自鸣得意

完整标题：Building Stronger Cultural Confidence and Helping Socialist Culture to Flourish读书嘉宾：中国外文出版发行事业局原副局长。英文文本：Building Stronger Cultural Confidence and Helping Socialist Culture to FlourishCulture is a country and nation's soul. Our country will thrive only if our culture thrives, and our nation will be strong only if our culture is strong. Without full confidence in our culture, without a rich and prosperous culture, the Chinese nation will not be able to rejuvenate itself. We must develop a socialist culture with Chinese characteristics, inspire the cultural creativity of our whole nation, and develop a great socialist culture in China.Socialist culture with Chinese characteristics is derived from China's fine traditional culture,which was born of the Chinese civilization and nurtured over more than 5,000 years; it has grown out of the revolutionary and advanced socialist culture that developed over the course of the Chinese people's revolution,construction, and reform under the Party's leadership; and it is rooted in the great practice of social-ism with Chinese characteristics.To develop socialist culture with Chinese characteristics means developing a socialist culture for our nation – a culture that is sound and people-oriented, that embraces modernization, the world, and the future, and that both promotes socialist material well being and raises socialist cultural-ethical standards. In developing this culture, we must follow the guidance of Marxism, base our efforts on Chinese culture, and take into account the realities of contemporary China and the conditions of the present era. We should ensure that this culture serves the people and serves socialism. We should follow the principle of letting a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend, and encourage creative transformation and development, so as to add new luster to Chinese culture.1. Holding firmly the leading position in ideological work Ideology determines the direction a culture should take and the path it should follow as it develops. We must continue to adapt Marx-ism to China's conditions, keep it up-to-date, and enhance its popular appeal. We will develop socialist ideology that has the ability to unite and the power to inspire the people to embrace shared ideals, convictions, values,and moral standards. We will better arm ourselves with theory and increase the public appeal of the Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. We will work harder to study and develop Marxist theory, work faster to develop philosophy and social sciences with Chinese characteristics, and develop new types of think tanks with distinctive Chinese features.We will maintain the right tone in public communication, give priority to improving means of communication and to creating new ones, and strengthen the penetration, guidance, influence, and credibility of the media. We will provide more and better online content and put in place a system for integrated internet management to ensure a clean cyberspace. We will implement the system of responsibility for ideological work, and further consolidate our positions and improve management in this field. We will distinguish between matters of political principle, issues of understanding and thinking, and academic viewpoints, but we must oppose and resist various erroneous views with a clear stand.2. Cultivating and observing the core socialist valuesThe core socialist values represent the contemporary Chinese spirit and are a crystallization of the values shared by all Chinese people.We will focus on fostering a new generation capable of shouldering the mission of national rejuvenation; we will offer them better guidance, expose them to practice, and provide institutional guarantees. We will draw on the core socialist values to guide education, efforts to raise cultural-ethical standards, and the creation,production, and distribution of cultural and intellectual products, and see that all areas of social development are imbued with these values and that they become part of people's thinking and behavior. To this end, we will encourage extensive public involvement, making our officials take the lead and starting with families and children.We will draw on China's fine traditional culture, keep alive and develop its vision,concepts, values, and moral norms, and do so in a way that responds to the call of our era. With this we will see that Chinese culture maintains its appeal and evolves with the times.3. Raising intellectual and moral standardsWhen the people have ideals, their country will have strength, and their nation will have a bright future. We will help our people raise their political awareness and moral standards, foster appreciation of fine culture, and enhance social etiquette and civility.We will undertake extensive public awareness activities to help the people develop firm ideals and convictions, build their awareness of socialism with Chinese characteristics and the Chinese Dream,foster a Chinese ethos and a readiness to respond to the call of our times,strengthen the guiding role of patriotism, collectivism, and social-ism, and see that the people develop an accurate understanding of history, ethnicity, country, and culture. We will launch a civic morality campaign to raise public ethical standards, and enhance work ethics, family virtues, and personal integrity. We will encourage our people to strive for excellence and to develop stronger virtues, respect the elderly, love families,and be loyal to the country and the people.We will improve and strengthen our ideological and political work, and launch initiatives to raise the public's cultural-ethical standards. We will promote the spirit of science and make scientific knowledge widely attainable; we will work to see the back of outdated social mores and to promote good and up-to-date practices and trends; and we will resist the corrosive influence of backward and decadent culture. We will build credibility, institutionalize volunteer services, and heighten people's sense of social responsibility,awareness of rules, and sense of dedication.4. Seeing socialist literature and art thriveSocialist literature and art are for the people: Writers and artists should take a people-centered approach and draw inspiration from everyday life and the experiences of the people to produce works that do justice to our times. We encourage them to create fine works that are thought provoking and of a high artistic standard, that reflect real life,and that extol our Party, our country, our people, and our heroes.We will foster democracy in academic research and artistic pursuits, and encourage originality and experimentation with new approaches in the creation of literature and art. We encourage the cultivation of fine tastes, style, and a sense of responsibility, and reject vulgarity and kitsch in literary and artistic creation. We will strengthen the professional standards of artists and writers to see the emergence of a large number of eminent figures who have moral integrity and outstanding artistic appeal, and creators of inspiring works.5. Promoting cultural programs and industriesTo meet the people's new aspirations for a better life, we must provide them with rich intellectual nourishment. We need to deepen structural reform of the cultural sector, improve the cultural management system, and accelerate the establishment of systems and mechanisms that put social benefits first while pursuing economic returns. We will improve the public cultural service system, carry out public-interest cultural programs, and launch more popular cultural activities. We will strengthen protection and utilization of cultural relics, and better preserve and carry forward our cultural heritage.We will improve modern systems for cultural industries and markets, explore new mechanisms for cultural production and operation, improve economic policy on the cultural sector, and develop new forms of business in this sector. We will carry out extensive fitness-for-all programs, speed up efforts to build China into a country strong in sport, and make smooth preparations for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games and Paralympic Games. We will strengthen people-to-people and cultural exchanges with other countries, giving prominence to Chinese culture while also drawing on other cultures. We will improve our capacity for engaging in international communication so as to tell China's stories well, present a true, multidimensional, and panoramic view of China, and enhance our country's cultural soft power.Comrades,Since its founding, the Communist Party of China has actively guided and promoted China's advanced culture while keeping China's fine traditional culture alive and strong. Today, we Chinese Communists and the Chinese people should and can shoulder our new cultural mission, make cultural creations through practice,and promote cultural progress along with history.
