I’m writing to complain about the quality of the computer which I purchase from your store on January 1, 2019. It unexpected went wrong a few days late. The monitor turned out to be a black screen. I read through accompanying instructions, and tried my best restart the computer several time, but it still failed to work. However, I’m sure there is something wrong for the computer. I am hoping if you can direct me to a store where I may return it for a new replacement within the next three days. Since your store has been gained a good reputation for customer satisfaction, I’m confidence that you will process my complaint at your earliest convenience.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) isn’t supported by most Westerners. 1.
TCM will be included in the new version of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD), which will be published by the World Health Organization in 2019, Nature magazine reported. 2. Ryan Abbott at the Center for East-West Medicine at the University of California, Los Angeles, US, said this could benefit TCM.
3. For example, during the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, US swimmer Michael Phelps was seen with circular bruises(瘀青) on his body. Such bruises are caused by cupping, a traditional Chinese medicinal practice that has been around for more than 2,000 years.
In 2015, Chinese scientist Tu Youyou was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine for her discovery of artemisinin(青蒿素), a drug that can cure malaria(疟疾). She said she was inspired by traditional Chinese medicine.
4. Twenty-six TCM centers were set up overseas over three years, according to a 2017 report published by Xinhua News Agency.
TCM still faces many challenges, such as a lack of clinical evidence as to precisely how it works. 5. Some say that TCM methodology should be combined with modern scientific methods to make it more acceptable to people outside of China.
A. However, this is starting to change.
B. TCM has cured millions of people in the world.
C. China has made some efforts to promote TCM overseas.
D. TCM’s effectiveness has been difficult to study or provide evidence for.
E. Tried and tested over thousands of years, the effectiveness of TCM is clear.
F. TCM has seen some growth in other countries, with a number of famous people being known to use it.
G. This is the first time for TCM to be included in the ICD, which serves as the international standard for diseases and health conditions.
Experts like to say the best form of exercise is whatever kind you’ll actually do. But that may not always be the case; new research finds that people who combine exercise with their social lives may be at an advantage over solitary(独自) exercisers. Tennis, badminton and soccer are all better for longevity(长寿) than cycling, swimming, jogging or gym exercise, according to the research.
The study was based on data from about 8,500 adults who were part of the Copenhagen City Heart Study. They completed a health and lifestyle questionnaire, which included questions about type and frequency of physical activity, and were monitored by the researchers for around 25 years, a period during which about 4,500 of the subjects died.
Tennis came out on top in the research. Compared with people sitting all day, those who reported playing tennis as their main form of exercise could expect to add 9.7 years to their life time, followed by badminton (6.2 years), soccer (4.7 years), cycling (3.7 years), swimming (3.4 years), jogging (3.2 years) and health-club activities (1.5 years).
Tennis likely took the top spot because “it’s very interactive,” says study co-author Dr. James O’Keefe, a physician at Saint Luke’s Mid America Heart Institute. “At every point you’re talking. It’s just a very natural way to emotionally bond with people, besides getting your exercise.” But he adds that the study may not have been able to fully account for the fact that wealthier, better-educated people—who tend to be healthier to begin with—may be more likely to play tennis.
Activities like running and weight lifting still extend your life and offer plenty of other health benefits. But for the best possible benefits, O’Keefe says gym-goers may want to consider combining those workouts with activities that foster social connection.
O’Keefe, whose exercise typically includes running and weight lifting, says he’s even changed his own behavior because of the study: he and his family have taken up badminton.
“You can’t play badminton without feeling like a kid again,” he says. “It’s just pure fun.”

C. About 4000. D. About 2500.
3.What matters most to the result of the research?
A. Family life. B. Social connections.
