Some people, just to make money, actually fabricated fake news about giant pandas. 优子: Really? Pandas are so cute, why would they make up stories about them? 刘娜: They take advantage of people's love for pandas, exaggerating or even making up videos of pandas being abused to attract attention and donations. 优子: That's awful! I even saw such videos on Douyin before and was really worried about the pandas. 刘娜: That's why we must learn to distinguish between real and fake news, and not blindly believe rumors. As the Chinese saying goes: 'What you see with your eyes is real, what you hear is false.' 优子: Yes, I’ll be more careful in the future and tell my friends not to easily believe such rumors.

Abbot Shi Yongxin of the Shaolin Temple is under investigation for allegedly misappropriating temple assets and violating monastic precepts… What do you think? 陈花: Yes, I saw it too. He’s the first abbot to earn an MBA degree, leading Shaolin Temple into business—selling medicine, running online shops, even doing livestream sales. That alone has been quite controversial. 黄刚: Exactly, business and Buddhism should be two parallel lines. At first, he might have done it to promote Shaolin culture, but later it seems he went astray, especially with issues about his private life. It’s really shocking. 陈花: That reminds me of the saying, ‘A gentleman loves wealth but acquires it by proper means.’ As an abbot, he should set an example. How could he become a slave to greed? 黄刚: Right, Shaolin Temple is an ancient Buddhist sanctuary, yet now it’s tied up with commercial interests, and the essence of its culture is being overlooked. It really makes one think about how to balance tradition and modern business. 陈花: I hope that after this incident, Shaolin Temple can truly return to its original intentions and find a balance between cultural heritage and development.

Are gold medals that important? 小刚: Gold medals are impressive, but recently the National Sports Administration said we shouldn’t only focus on gold medals — everyone’s health and happiness matter too. 小宝: So it’s okay not to win gold medals? Then what’s the point of competitions? 小刚: Competitions can help us exercise and make friends. The most important thing in sports is participation and improvement, not necessarily being number one. 小宝: I like running, but I’m slow. Is that okay? 小刚: Of course it’s okay! If you work hard, you’re the best. As long as you enjoy exercising, everyone is a champion. 小宝: Then I’ll do more exercise with my friends from now on and not worry about winning medals.

I saw on the news that this year is a ‘big year’ for cicadas. 小宝: What’s a ‘big year’? 小刚: A ‘big year’ is when many cicadas emerge at the same time. In other years, there are fewer. 小宝: There’s water dripping under the trees — what’s that? 小刚: That’s cicada urine. They drink tree sap, and their urine drips down. It’s actually harmless to us. 小宝: Oh, I see. So when will there be fewer cicadas? 小刚: When summer is over and the weather gets cooler, the cicadas will disappear. Then it will be much quieter.

    星巴克自习室：免费开放引热议 - Starbucks Study Rooms: Free Access Sparks Discussion [HSK 5]

    Starbucks opens study areas in multiple locations, allowing customers to use seats and facilities without making a purchase.

Some Starbucks stores in Guangdong, Guangxi, and other places have opened study areas where you can sit and study without even buying coffee, and still use free Wi-Fi and power outlets. 刘娜: I just saw the news about that — I think it’s pretty interesting. Starbucks has always emphasized the ‘third place’, but completely opening seats for free is a first. Do you think this might affect normal business? 优子: I’m a bit curious — if we don’t order drinks, would the store still welcome us to stay for a long time? But the staff said they don’t require purchases, which sounds quite relaxed. 刘娜: Actually, this could be seen as a cultural phenomenon. Coffee shops in China are becoming more like ‘shared study rooms’, offering quiet corners for people. Now that it’s summer vacation, many students might need to review for exams. 优子: Right. In Japan, if you sit in a coffee shop for a long time without ordering, the staff might remind you. China’s open approach feels like a kind of ‘hospitality’. But do you think some people might just come for the air conditioning and Wi-Fi? 刘娜: Hard to say. Some might worry that this would leave no seats for paying customers. But Starbucks has always wanted people to gather, study, and talk here, showing inclusiveness. Would you like to give it a try? 优子: I’m kind of tempted! But I’m also wondering — will this model spread to more cities in the future? And if no one orders, can coffee shops still make money? 刘娜: That’s exactly the question to think about. Maybe Starbucks is exploring a new model for social and study spaces. In any case, such spaces certainly make things more convenient for learners.
