Media should not only entertain the public but also undertake the responsibility of cultivating the public's aesthetic consciousness. Media should not just pursue audience ratings, or just turn arts into entertainment. “媒体不应该仅仅是娱乐大众,还应该承担起培养大众美学意识的责任。媒体不应只追求收视率,或者把艺术转变为娱乐节目。” Tian Qing, researcher at the Chinese National Academy of Arts 田青,全国政协委员、中国艺术研究院研究员 I am glad to see that female officials and professionals can retire at a later age, and that they can still choose to retire at 55 if they want, according to a new regulation. Female professionals have gathered rich experiences by the time they are about 50 years old, and at that time their children have grown up, so they would have more time to devote to work. “值得高兴的是,不仅女干部、女技术人员延迟退休的政策实施了,而且《通知》还没有‘一刀切’,如果由本人申请,可以在年满55周岁时自愿退休。以高级女技术人员为例,她们在50岁左右不仅积累了很丰富的经验,小孩也长大了,可以发挥很大的优势。” Zhang Lihui, dean of the Conservatory of Music at Chongqing Normal University 张礼慧,全国政协委员、重庆师范大学音乐学院院长 The entertainment community should condemn any performer who uses drugs. A number of famous actors and singers were found to have taken drugs last year, and such behavior has a bad effect on them and the entertainment community. Entertainers should behave themselves as they are public figures. |
