Famous author and cartoonist Tsai Chih-chung, better known as C. C. Tsai in the West, may already be 73 this year, but the septuagenarian has no plans to slow down or adopt a more“normal”life.The artist keeps a unique schedule. He goes to bed at 5 pm and wakes at 1 am. He then works till around 2 pm.
“When you are truly focused, everything is silent, as if you are the only thing in existence in the world.Time seems to slow down. This is why I enjoy getting out of bed in the middle of the night,”says Tsai, who was in Shanghai last month for the launch of the English edition of his works on ancient Chinese philosophy.
“I can create a book in no more than five days,”he says.“We cartoonists dont work like novelists who have to write one word after another. We create in our mind a complete image in the blink of an eye.”Despite his age, Tsai claims that he still works hours on end, and all that sitting hardly gets to him. In fact, his current goal is to complete a whopping 500 new books in five years.“I just completed a new series on Buddhism and made two feature animation films, and I plan to start a new series about Eastern wisdom,”he says.
Born in 1948 in Chang Hwa county in Taiwan, Tsai has been creating comic books on ancient Chinese classics that have won popularity around the world since 1984. His works have been translated into 26 different languages, with more than 50 million copies sold worldwide.“I created a new genre in China,”Tsai tells China Daily.“Nobody tried to interpret Chinese classics the way I did—by using simple storytelling and cartoon images.”
Last week, the 18th China Animation and Comic Golden Dragon Award announced the launch of a new award named after Tsai. According to the organizing committee of the event, the new award is a recognition of“works and artists with outstanding achievements involving the inheritance of traditional Chinese culture”.

The Hong Kong Police Force will increase its outreach efforts to schools, parents and student groups this year in a bid to build trust in the citys most visible law enforcement agency and raise awareness among young people on why it is important to follow the law, said Deputy Commissioner Raymond Siu Chak-yee on Monday.
Siu said outreach efforts will include regular briefings to explain policies on issues such as how cases involving juveniles are handled and to debunk(揭穿)false information and accusations that have been said about the police force on public platforms.
Siu said the police mulled over the idea soon after the 2019 social unrest quietened down in spring last year, as they found that mostly young people were victims of the often-violent street protests. Of the 10,200 people arrested for crimes allegedly committed during the unrest, more than 4,000 were students, according to police data from December.
Speaking of his conversations with these youngpeople at the station, Siu said there were two things that struck him most. One is that many of them were misled and incited(煽動(dòng))by things that they saw on social media. He remembered many of them saying they believed they would be assaulted or even sexually abused by the police after being caught.“Because thats what they have heard from time to time...During this social unrest, the kids have been very much affected by fake news, fake reports,”Siu said.
The other thing Siu noticed was a reluctance(勉強(qiáng))to admit crimes and show regret among juvenile offenders. According to police data, only 19 juveniles arrested for offenses related to social unrest have joined the Police Superintendents Discretion Scheme(警察監(jiān)管量刑計(jì)劃), which focuses on rehabilitation(復(fù)原)through corrective supervision, rather than prosecution(起訴).“Unfortunately, a lot of people were asking these juvenile offenders not to say anything when they were arrested by the police,”said Siu, adding that the juveniles were told to believe that was the way out.
29. What is the purpose of the HK Police Forces outreach efforts to schools, parents and student groups?
A. to ask for help from the youth
B. to build trust in HKs government
C. to appeal to the youth to join the Force
D. to stress the significance of obeying the laws
30. What does the underlined phrase“mulled over”probably mean in paragraph 3?
A. think over
B. experiment with
C. co-operate
D. come to terms with
31. While talking with the young offenders, what struck Siu most?
①They were misled by something on social media.
②They were affected little by fake news, fake reports.
③They were unwilling to admit crimes they had committed.
④They showed much regret for what they had done.
A.①②③④
B.①③④
C.①③
D.②④
32. According to the Police Superintendents Discretion Scheme, what would probably happen to the 19 juveniles arrested for offenses related to social unrest?
A. They would be locked down in prison.
B. They would be correctively supervised.
C. They would be prosecuted as soon as possible.
D. They would be sent back to schools.

We learnt respect for our 42 and authority, we learnt etiquette(禮儀)too, but 43 was it suggested that we extend any feelings towards animals, or indeed that animals have feelings. And because of this, many children in Asia grow up 44 that animals exist to serve us, feed us, entertain us and45 us. Animals are useful“moving objects”, a 46 translation of the Chinese word for animal.
I co-founded ACTAsia in 2006 with an Asian 47 , to support the development of caring societies in Asia. While many non-profits were already48human, animal and environmental concerns with direct action, I felt the culture shock between continents was 49 great to ignore. we had to accept that change would not happen immediately, and that intervening(干預(yù))would cause50. First, we have to help societies understand the 51 of people, animals and our natural habitat. Instead of stepping in to find fault, we stepped back and considered the 52 . Millions of people live 53 the poverty line, and most left-behind children live without their parents, so it wasclear our biggest barrier was 54 , not cruelty.
With the future in mind,55 is at the core of all we do. We should teach children about 56 and kindness, and we see that a sense of individual 57 is improving.

Nowadays, more and more young people prefer to celebrate a Spring Festival by travelling rather than stay at home. The reasons can be listed as follows.
Firstly, with the economy developing and living standards improve, people can afford to travel to various places. Secondly, modern public transportations such as Chinas high-speed railway has been great developed, making it easier for people to travel from one place to other. Besides, as attitudes of life change, young people think travelling is a more fashionable but popular way to spend the holiday.
