Riding a Mobike in the street, you might hear some people speaking Chinese aloud. Turning to the right, you see a Sichuan-style restaurant. After walking into a store, you see that HUAWEI smartphones are on sale. But you’re not in China — you’re in Manchester in Britain. In fact, you might see similar things in many other cities. Chinese products (产品) have been going all over the world.
Chinese food has been enjoyed in Western countries for a long time. To meet local people’s tastes, Chinese restaurants have made some changes to the dishes. “One example is the meat,” said Yin Hang, a Chinese student, who is studying in Australia. “We like to eat meat with the bone in, but people here don’t. So the local Chinese restaurants provide big pieces of meat without bones, even for fish.”
“Some Chinese brands (品牌) are also becoming more popular. It is reported that in many cities in Europe, many stores sell TCL televisions, Haier fridges and Lenovo computers. More than half of US-owned drones (无人机) are Chinese models, according to China Daily. They are not only made in China, but also designed and developed in the country.
In the past, most Western people thought Chinese products were cheap and unreliable. But now, things have changed greatly. More people trust Chinese brands. “Made in China” becomes cool. “They are beautiful and offer something special that American phones don’t have,” an article on CNN once said about Chinese smartphones.
As it is said, Chinese government has been trying its best to improve its national brands of all kinds to meet the needs of modern life.

Life skills are important and should be taught as part of labor education (劳动教育). On June 3, 2020, the Ministry of Education (MOE) (教育部) gave a revised course for high schools across the county. Labor education, also called education on the hardworking spirit, covers housework, school labor and community voluntary services.
“Labor education must be carried out with the purpose to develop the view of the world, life and values and develop an interest in doing housework.” said Zheng Fuzhi, a Vice-Minister of Education.
According to China Youth Daily, the labor course will take six credits (学分) —the same as English and physics, Voluntary service, as part of labor education, would take two credits. The MOE also asks schools to make sure 40 hours of voluntary service during the full three school years.
According to Xinhua, the young in our country do too little housework and that they think labor jobs aren’t important. Because of a lot of school stress, schools think the educational course is more important, and parents sometimes think that housework wastes their kids’ time.
According to a survey, primary and middle school students in China only spend 12 minutes a day on housework, compared with 72 minutes in the US, 42 minutes in South Korea and 30 minutes in France.
However, doing housework does not take young people’s attention away. Instead, it is necessary for developing a strong working spirit. “The earlier you start, the better...” the writer of How to Raise an Adult said.
