Dear editor,
1 am Li Hua,an exchange student from China.I am writing to point out to you some of the mistake in your recent article about the Chinese Dragon Boat Festival.
The Chinese Dragon Boat Festival falls May 5th in the Chinese Lunar Calendar,not the calendar using around the world.Also,we compete with dragon boats,where there was always a dragon head at the front,not rowing boats.To correct the mistakes is constructive but thus readers can have the better understanding of China.However,I quite appreciate your efforts to introduce Chinese culture to our people.In my opinion,it is no doubt that it will sure bridge the gap between our countries.
Thank you for your efforts.Wish you all are the best!
Yours.
Li Hua

The Tech That Will Invade Our Lives in 2020
The 2010s made one thing clear: 1.It is in our homes with thermostats that heat up our rooms before we walk through the door.It is in our cars with safety features that warn us about vehicles in nearby lanes.We even wear it on ourselves in the form of watches that monitor our health.Here's what to watch in tech this year.
2.
In the last few years,Amazon,Apple and Google have battled to become the center of our homes.Now,they are working together on a standard to help make smart home products work well with one another.For example,if you open your door,then the door can say to the lights to turn them on.
5G rises steadily.
One important benefit of the technology is its ability to greatly make everything faster. 3.That will be important for the compatibility(兼容性）of next-generation devices like robots. sell-driving cars and drones.For example,if your car has 5G and another car has 5G,the two cars can talk to each other.4.
The wearables market heats up.
It is a time of intense competition in wearable computers.5.Computer chips are making their way into other electronic products like earphones,which means that companies are likely to introduce innovations in wearable equipment,That whole area of improving our hearing and hearing the way other people hear us is really interesting.
A.Home becomes smarter.
B.Tech is everywhere in life,
C.Door upgrades intelligently,
D.The biggest thing is connected everything.
E.And the competition is set to lead to more creativity and innovation.
F.The other is the time it takes for devices to communicate with one another.
G.And they can also signal to each other when they are braking and changing lanes.
HOW BIG should a business team be?It is an enormously important issue for companies, Teams that are too small may lack the skills required to get the job done:teams that are too big may be impossible to co-ordinate.
Robin Dunbar.an anthropologist at Oxford University,has done a lot of work on primate(灵长目）groups.His argument is that the size of the group is linked to the size of the brain.With their large brains,humans can cope with larger bands,A larger social group has many advantages,allowing for greater protection and specialization.
Whereas 150 is sometimes referred to as the"Dunbar number",the academic himself in fact refers to a range of figures.He observes that humans tend to have five intimate friends,15 or so good friends,around 50 social friends and 150-odd acquaintances.
Running a larger network can be difficult.The armed forces have spent more than 1,000 years experimenting with unit size.A Roman centurion(百天长）oversaw 100.The modern American army company has 180 members.Britain's equivalent numbers 120.These are rough estimates,rather than fixed figures.But it is striking that many group activities seem to be close to a Dunbar number. The Special Air Service of Britain has four-man patrols;when your life depends on it,you need to have absolute trust in your colleagues.As a result,such groups are limited in size.
For much of economic history,work was conducted in small units by peasants,tenant farmers and craftsmen.The coming of powered machinery enabled production at a much larger scale,with workers crowded into factories.These days the rise of the service economy means that workers are no longer concentrated in such large groups.
This may not be a bad thing.It was easy for employees in large factories to regard remote company owners as "them"rather than"us".The modern company may settle on a model with a small group of"core"workers and a larger group of contract workers.The result may be more united within the core staff but the non-core staff may be less well treated.The small core teams may work effectively.The big question will be the effect on morale of those outside those teams.
