Since April 13, 2023, the China-Laos Railway (中老铁路) has started cross-border (跨境的) passenger service. The railway starts in Kunming, the capital of Yunnan Province, and runs south through Yuxi, Pu'er, Xishuangbanna, and the border town of Mohan in China. Then, it goes through Boten, Luang Prabang, Vang Vieng before reaching Vientiane, the capital of Laos. Now, it takes only 2 hours and 46 minutes to travel from Kunming to Pu'er, 3 hours and 24 minutes from Kunming to Xishuangbanna, 10 hours and 30 minutes from Kunming to Vientiane.

Traveling by China-Laos Railway is an exciting way to enjoy the unusual scenery (风景) and rich cultures along the line. On arriving in Kunming, travelers can visit the Stone Forest, Dianchi Lake and Dounan Flower Market. After getting off at Pu'er Station, tourists can experience the ancient tea-horse road in southern Yunnan and enjoy the tea gardens within half an hour by car. Starting from Xishuangbanna Station, visitors can reach the Wild Elephant Valley and Olive Dam within an hour by car.

If you are going to visit Yunnan and Laos, traveling by China-Laos Railway will be a great choice.

Every Saturday, Wang Fokun travels 40 minutes to "watch" a movie with his friends. He became blind in his early 50s. However, he can still enjoy movies in a "talking movie" club—Xin Deng Theater. The club is in Kunming, Yunnan. A group of volunteers there describe movies to blind people.

"I listened to a movie for the first time in the summer of 2019, and it was amazing. The volunteers did a great job." said Wang.

Describing movies to blind people can be challenging (有挑战性的). The volunteers must watch a movie three or four times to know everything in the movie. This way, they can describe the movie very clearly.

Zhou Quan started the club in 2017. "Movies are for everybody," said Zhou. "Xin Deng Theater hopes to share movies with blind people and help to light up their lives." Thanks to the special club, many blind people go out of their homes and their lives are more interesting.

Now many blind people come to Xin Deng Theater to "watch" movies every week. "They can enjoy the movies here. I'm so glad that I bring enjoyment to them." said Zhou.

"It's meaningful for us to spend our free time volunteering." said one volunteer.

I am an Inuit boy named Kayla. Inuit are the people who live in cold Arctic (北极的) lands. In my language, Inuit means" the people". Some people used to call my people Eskimos. We wish to be called Inuit.

I live with my mother, father and two brothers. We live at the most northern part of the world. It is made up of the Arctic Ocean and the land all around it. For months the sea is covered with thick ice. The land is covered with snow and ice most of the year, too.

Winter is long and very cold. It lasts from October to March. It is dark twenty﹣four hours a day. The sun does not come up to warm the water and land. When the north winds blow, it is even colder. There are days when the temperature is 50°F below zero. My family is prepared. We wear watertight (防水鞋). We put on many layers (层) of clothes. Outside we always wear a thick warm jacket that has fur inside. I'm not afraid of the cold winters. I guess I'm just used to them.

My family and I look forward to each summer. So much happens in a short time. The temperature usually stays around 50°F. During the summer the sun shines all day and night. This is why the Arctic is called the "land of the midnight sun".
