4、cent QQ. Since 2014, this Chinese company has been trying to trademark (申请商标权) its “Di-Di-Di-Di-Di-Di” notification sound. The trademark was finally approved on Nov 15, which means that Tencents “Di-Di-Di-Di-Di-Di” notification sound is now protected by law and can only be used by QQ.Sound and music
5、 can also help tell stories. In Game of Thrones (权力的游戏) there are so many characters that it is difficult to memorize them all. So, they wrote melodies (旋律) specific to each family.

11、r US president Barack Obama would read his novel The Three-Body Problem, nor that on Nov 9 in Washington DC, he would win the 2018 Arthur CClarke Award for Imagination in Service to Society. Its the first time a Chinese writer has ever won the award.In his acceptance speech, Liu said that he owed hi
12、s imagination to Arthur CClarke (1917-2008), a famous UK sci-fi author.

I felt like a narrow river finally seeing the sea,” Liu said. “That night,

For the first time in my life, I was awed (使敬畏) by the mystery of the universe.”But no matter how far away Lius imagination takes him, somehow his novels always stay rational.In The Three-Body Problem, for
14、 example, Liu tells a tale of aliens invading Earth. But unlike other alien stories, Liu talks more about relationships between civilizations(文明), rules of survival, and the meanings of life. And in The Wandering Earth, Liu looks ahead to the day when our solar system comes to an end and humans have

19、these things in our relationships? I think people refuse to be generous with others because they fear being used.For example, my husband and I have family members who only contact us when they need money. We usually accept their requests, but we rarely receive a “thank you”. Most people would say th

Rather, we should be giving because its a good thing to do.Everything that we have, from our ability to wake up each morning to the money in our bank account, is a gift from the world. I

Its good for us to say “thank you” because we often need to tell ourselves how lucky we are.If you are lookin
