A first year undergraduate (本科生) student in Chengdu, recently cmplained (抱怨) nline that her mther refused t raise her mnthly allwance t
4,500 yuan (＄633) even when she said her current allwance (津贴，生活费) 2,000 yuan was nt enugh t cver her expenses, sparking a debate n hw
much mney a cllege student needs per mnth. One expert shares his views n the issue with China Daily: Students shuld pursue educatin, nt
cmfrt.
Even fr a cllege student studying in a big city in China, 2,000 yuan is enugh t cver all his r her mnthly expenses. In fact, fr a cllege student

cnsumptin accrding t her r his family incme. On a deeper level, the mney they spend in cllege shuld depend n hw much they value their
parents' hard wrk. Besides, sme cllege students culd take up part-time jbs t meet their needs if they feel their parents dn't r can't give them
enugh mney. In this way they can als learn t meet the requirements f life in the future and develp sensible cnsumptin habits. Mre imprtantly,

The design f the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic trch (火炬) was shwn n July 25, marking almst a year until the pening ceremny (典礼) f
the Paris Olympic Games.
The trch, measuring 70 centimeters and weighing 3.3 punds, is made with lightweight radiant steel and is knwn fr its champagne clr, a clr

Games, as many wmen as men will take part in the cmpetitins. Reflecting this desire fr peace, the trch, with its curves and runded lines, is filled
with gentleness. The design f the trch delivers genersity and unity.

Lehanneur said.
