A doctor entered the hospital hurriedly after being called in for an important surgery (外科手术).
He found the boy's father in the hall waiting worriedly.
On seeing him, the father cried out, "Why did you take all this time to come? Don't you know that my son is in danger? Don't you have any sense of duty?"
The doctor smiled and said, "I am sorry. I wasn't in the hospital and I came as fast as I could after receiving the call and now, I wish you'd calm down so that I can do my work."
"Calm down?! What if your son was in this room right now? Would you calm down? If your own son dies while waiting for a doctor, then what will you do?" said the father angrily. The doctor smiled again and replied, "We will do our best and you should also pray (祈祷)for your son's healthy life."
The surgery took some hours after which the doctor went out happy, "Thank goodness! Your son is saved!" And without waiting for the father's reply he carried on his way running by saying, "If you have any questions, ask the nurse."
"Couldn't he wait some minutes so that I can ask about my son's state?" shouted the father when seeing the nurse minutes after the doctor left.
The nurse answered, tears coming down her face. "His son died yesterday in a road accident. He was at the burial (葬礼) when we called him for your son's surgery. And now that he saved your son's life, he left running to finish his son's burial."
As evening sets in, Chung Chia-ming arrives at the night market of Nan'an district in Southwest China's Chongqing, parks his car on the roadside, unlocks the colorful car trunk（后备箱） and sets up his movable lemon tea stall（地摊）.
Chung comes from Macao and he runs the tea stall with his girlfriend, where they also sell Hong Kong and Macao snacks. He said that he once sold more than 200 cups of lemon tea in a single evening. "The number of customers has increased surprisingly since the Chinese Lunar New Year, "Chung said.
"The car trunk shop is a special part of our night market, providing a fast and good service for the customers, "said Xiong Yingdong, the manager of the night market. There are over 10, 000 customers every night during the weekdays, and on weekends, about 30, 000.
Nearly 30 percent of the marketers run their stalls as part-time jobs and Peng Jing is one among them. She works for a travel clothes shop during the day and sells Southeast Asian food at the market at night. " It is hard work but I can make more money. ________, " said Peng.
"The night market has brought joy and fun to the customers and at the same time built the confidence（信心） for the marketers. It gives more job chances. And it is becoming more popular among young people to visit the night market, "said Xiong Yingdong.
Chongqing's Nan'an district has been trying best to encourage the growing in the cultural and tourism industry, and this popular night market has filled new power into the city.
Li Meixi, 12, feels anxious(焦虑的) about her looks——not her face, but her outfit (穿搭). When she sees stylish people on the street, she avoids running into them. "I am afraid that they think I am out of style. Ashamed of my ordinary outfit, I feel like I don't even deserve to walk on the same street with them, " said Li, from Chengdu, Sichuan.
What Li is experiencing is fashion anxiety. It bothers many people today. They are anxious about their outfits, afraid of being seen out of style. Last month, a vlogger shared a video about her fashion anxiety on Sina Weibo and it quickly became a hot topic.
A big reason for fashion anxiety is fashion bullying, experts said. As fashion magazines, advertisements and icons sport( 炫 耀 ) the "latest and greatest" trends, there's a lot of pressure on people, especially teenagers, to follow them, no matter how expensive it might be. "The need to belong in groups is very important to young learners and exclusion (排斥) is something they see as the end of the world, " said Andy Cranham, a teacher at City of Bristol College, UK.
Another reason some people might have fashion anxiety is that they lack a sense of self-identity, said The Paper. It looks like we feel anxious about our outfits, but actually we are not confident enough. So we care about how fashionable people look at us. We easily doubt or even blame ourselves. The reality is that those people usually don't notice us at all.
Fashion trends come and go, always changing. Instead of rushing to follow a trend, the key is to find your own style. If you're able to wear something with confidence, you will be the one starting a trend. More importantly, an outfit is just a part of your image. It can't tell the true you. What also matters is your personality and abilities.
