In Hongchunqing Village, 52 kilometers away from Huaping County, Yunnan Province, at 7: 00 in the morning, Wang Chengyan, a senior three girl, began a day of review. After folding the quilt and simply grooming, she sat down at her desk and read for an hour in the morning according to the arrangement of the school.

　　At 8 o’clock, Wang Chengyan packed her schoolbag and went out to the village Committee located halfway up the mountain, because the cell phone signal there was relatively stable and she could watch the live course of the school smoothly.

　　Wang Chengyan’s tiny figure shuttles through the open mountains. This steep and rugged mountain road takes her more than 20 minutes to walk.

　　Wang Chengyan attended Huaping Girls’ High School in Lijiang, Yunnan Province. This is a high school where tuition, accommodation and living expenses are all free. All the students enrolled in the school are girls from poor rural families in Huaping. Principal Zhang Guimei firmly believes that only reading can change the fate of these girls in the mountains.

　　"The pressure is very great. I hope the children can go out. Teacher Zhang often tells us that if we save one, we will save their whole family for three generations. " Du Chaoxian, a biology teacher at the school, said. Du Chaoxian also comes from the countryside. She knows in her heart that it is almost impossible for children to get out of the mountains by other means except the college entrance examination.

　　However, this year’s review progress has been greatly affected by the epidemic. In order to reduce the crowd gathering, the third grade of senior high school failed to start school as scheduled on February 4. According to the arrangement of the local education department, the school began to carry out online teaching on February 10, which not only takes into account epidemic prevention, but also catches up with the review progress. This was a good idea, but when it was implemented in poor mountainous areas, it encountered another difficulty.

　　More than 90% of the students in Huaping girls’ middle school don’t have mobile phones, and the unstable network signal in Dashan has brought a lot of inconvenience to the development of online classes.

　　Wang Chengyan encountered such a problem. Her home is located in a small mountain, and there is no broadband connection, and the cell phone signal is also very poor. Usually, the phone calls are intermittent. Because of the poor economic conditions, her parents still use an old-age phone that can only answer calls, and it is impossible to install live broadcast software.

　　Worried that students’ review would be affected, Zhang Guimei rushed from the county seat to various villages for home visits every day. After discovering Wang Chengyan’s difficulties, the school allocated funds to buy a smart phone for her to take online classes. The village Committee also tried its best to help solve Wang Chengyan’s difficulties, specially set aside a room for Wang Chengyan to study, and also printed learning materials and cooked for her.

　　At present, there are 157 students in the third grade of Huaping Girls’ Middle School. Students with similar difficulties have been able to attend online classes on time after Zhang Guimei’s home visits. Through consultation with the local government, the communication company also launched a special traffic discount package for students.

　　Among the students, anxiety is still spreading, and some small things will arouse their sensitive nerves: the signal that is interrupted occasionally in the live broadcast, the blackboard writing that can’t be seen clearly because the screen is too small, and the inability to communicate with the teacher in time … Every time Zhang Guimei visits her home, she will hear students ask her when she can resume school. In Huaping, where confirmed cases and suspected cases are all zero, will it take a long time to wait for this day?

　　What the students don’t know is that Zhang Guimei’s health is not as good as before. She is suffering from tumor, pulmonary fibrosis, systemic osteoporosis and other diseases. She was critically ill three times last year and was rescued in the hospital. She lost more than 30 kilograms a month, making it more and more difficult to walk. At the node where the college entrance examination suffered an epidemic, she still stuck to her post and continued to escort the children.

　　"Hold on a little longer," said Zhang Guimei. "I’ll try to find some painkillers myself. I’ll stop the pain first and talk about it later. I don’t want to check my body now. The more I check, the more problems I have. " Despite all kinds of diseases, Zhang Guimei tried her best to look refreshed and insisted on home visits to every student to bring confidence to the students.

　　Worried that the teacher would feel lonely when he was alone in the classroom, Zhang Guimei sat at the door of the classroom with them. After her health deteriorated, sitting for a long time would also make her feel unbearable pain, so Zhang Guimei set up a bed outside the door. The lights of the teaching building are turned off at night, and only the lecture floor is powered on, so Zhang Guimei will lie in bed and quietly accompany the teacher who is lecturing.

　　At the end of the day’s class, at 11 pm, Wang Chengyan’s father came to the village Committee to pick her up. When she got home, she still had questions to ask the teacher. "In any case, stick to it, as long as you work hard."

　　Wang Chengyan’s ideal is to be a doctor. "When I was very young, I saw that my relatives around me were very painful because of the disease. I hope that through my own strength, I can alleviate their pain."

　　There are only less than three months left before the college entrance examination, and Wang Chengyan is looking forward to the day when she gets the ticket to realize her ideal. (Text/Chen Siyuan)

　　At the invitation of Foreign Minister Qin Gang of China, Korosi, President of the 77th UN General Assembly, visited China from February 1 to 4.

　　Kohler Heezen commented on China’s contribution to the cause of the United Nations: China has always been the strong backing of the cause of the United Nations and played an important role in the fields of climate change and peacekeeping.

　　As a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council and the first country to sign the Charter of the United Nations, China has always defended the purposes and principles of the Charter, always safeguarded the central role of the United Nations in international affairs, and unswervingly worked as a builder of world peace, a contributor to global development and a defender of the international order. By combing the relevant facts and data, people can see China’s clear and remarkable "report card" for supporting the United Nations cause.

　　The United Nations Headquarters Building in new york.

　　The key force of global peacekeeping

　　The United Nations, founded at the end of World War II, bears the expectations of people of all countries for permanent peace. However, Chinese civilization has always advocated "building a harmonious country", "harmony is different" and "harmony is the most important thing" to maintain peace and stability. China and the United Nations share the same ideas.

　　In today’s world, conflicts continue and various security challenges emerge one after another. In April 2022, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader put forward the Global Security Initiative at the Boao Forum for Asia, stressing that mankind is an inseparable security community, contributing China wisdom to make up the peace deficit of mankind, and providing China’s solution to international security challenges, which won wide recognition from the international community, including the United Nations.

　　Actively participate in the political settlement of hot issues in major regions such as the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue, the Iranian nuclear issue, Afghanistan, Myanmar, Palestine and Israel; Efforts should be made to safeguard the authority and unity of the Security Council and support the United Nations in providing good offices in accordance with its mandate; Actively participate in the international arms control and disarmament process and join dozens of international arms control treaties and mechanisms such as the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons; On the Ukrainian crisis, China has always decided its position and policy according to the merits of the matter itself, upheld an objective and fair position, and actively persuaded and promoted talks … … China shares security with the world and injects positive energy into world and regional peace and stability.

　　Former UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said that China is committed to being a builder of world peace, a contributor to global development and a defender of international order, which is consistent with the ideals enshrined in the UN Charter.

　　Power source of global development

　　"In the face of the severe impact of the epidemic, we should jointly push global development towards a new stage of balance, coordination and tolerance. Here, I would like to propose a global development initiative. " In September 2021, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader put forward the global development initiative for the first time at the general debate of the 76th session of the United Nations General Assembly.

　　Adhere to development priority, people-centeredness, inclusiveness, innovation drive, harmonious coexistence between man and nature, and action orientation — — China’s proposition aroused warm response from the world, and China’s action promoted world development and progress.

　　Today, the global development initiative has achieved a series of early gains: the establishment of the global development promotion center, and the invitation of the "Group of Friends of the Global Development Initiative" countries, regional organizations and relevant departments of the United Nations to designate corresponding institutions to establish the "Global Development Promotion Center Network", which has been joined by counterparts from 31 countries and regional organizations; A global development project library has been established. The first batch of 50 projects have been started, and now more than 100 projects have been expanded, and 1000 human resources training sessions have been carried out, covering more than 50 "friends group" countries.

　　In the past ten years, the "One Belt, One Road" initiative has also become a popular platform for international public goods and international cooperation, covering two-thirds of countries and one-third of international organizations.

　　Natalia Kanem, Executive Director of the United Nations Population Fund, said that with the global population exceeding 8 billion, China’s development and contribution will benefit many countries in the world.

　　The biggest contributor to global poverty reduction

　　"China has solved the problem of food and clothing for more than 1.3 billion people and lifted more than 700 million people out of poverty, which is a major contribution to the cause of human rights in the world." In January 2017, when the Chairman of the Supreme Leader delivered a keynote speech at the UN headquarters, he pointed out the world significance of poverty reduction in China.

　　In December, 2020, China officially announced that after eight years of continuous struggle, China had completed the goal and task of tackling poverty in the new era as scheduled. Under the current standards, all the poor people in rural areas were lifted out of poverty, and all the poverty-stricken counties were stripped of their hats, thus eliminating absolute poverty and regional overall poverty and achieving a major victory that made the world sit up and take notice.

　　Poverty is a chronic disease in human society, and anti-poverty has always been a major event in governing the country and safeguarding the country at all times and in all countries. Facing the global governance problem of poverty eradication, China has never hesitated to share its experience and contribute to international poverty reduction while achieving its own poverty reduction.

　　In recent years, China has made great efforts to provide "six 100" projects to developing countries, including 100 poverty alleviation projects, 100 agricultural cooperation projects, 100 trade promotion assistance projects, 100 ecological protection and climate change response projects, 100 hospitals and clinics, 100 schools and vocational training centers, to help the countries concerned reduce poverty.

　　In the Asian region, China has implemented the demonstration cooperation technical assistance project for poverty reduction in East Asia in rural communities in Laos, Cambodia and Myanmar; In Africa, China has built water conservancy infrastructure for African countries, built a demonstration zone for agricultural cooperation, and promoted the implementation of projects such as technical cooperation between China and Africa; In the South Pacific region, carry out technical cooperation and assistance projects such as infrastructure construction and agricultural medical care; In Latin America, build agricultural technology demonstration centers to help local people in recipient countries get rid of poverty … …

　　UN Secretary-General Guterres said that China is "the country that has made the greatest contribution to global poverty reduction".

　　Unite the practitioners who fight the epidemic.

　　"People from all countries watch and help each other, showing the courage, determination and care of mankind in the face of major disasters, and illuminating the darkest moment. The epidemic will eventually be defeated by mankind, and victory will surely belong to the people of the world! " In September, 2020, when the COVID-19 epidemic was raging repeatedly around the world, the speech made by the Chairman of the Supreme Leader in the general debate of the 75th United Nations General Assembly was inspiring.

　　Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic, China has been helping each other with the rest of the world, sharing anti-epidemic experience in time, rushing to help other countries with anti-epidemic materials, and actively carrying out international anti-epidemic cooperation. China has provided anti-epidemic materials to 153 countries and 15 international organizations, and co-organized more than 300 technical exchange activities such as epidemic prevention and control and medical treatment with more than 180 countries and regions and more than 10 international organizations around the world.

　　China was the first country to promise the new crown vaccine as a global public product, to support the exemption of intellectual property rights in vaccine research and development, and to cooperate with developing countries in vaccine production, which injected a strong impetus into bridging the global "immunization gap". China actively played the role of traditional Chinese medicine, held more than 100 video exchanges and live broadcasts of anti-epidemic experts, introduced the diagnosis and treatment schemes of traditional Chinese medicine to more than 150 countries and regions, and provided traditional Chinese medicine products to some countries and regions in need.

　　Romina Sudak, a member of the Argentina Research Group in China, Rosario University, Argentina, said that China has helped developing countries to fight the epidemic, and China has implemented its consistent concept of "community of human destiny" with practical actions.

　　The doer of green development

　　"The sky goes at four o’clock without words, and everything is alive without words." China is an active advocate and a down-to-earth doer in tackling climate change and strengthening global environmental governance.

　　Chairman of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly expounded China’s proposition of building a clean and beautiful world and protecting the beautiful home of the earth on United Nations occasions. "Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets. We should follow the concept of harmony between man and nature and seek the road of sustainable development. "

　　Make a historic contribution to the conclusion and rapid entry into force of the Paris Agreement, take the lead in issuing the National Plan for China to Implement the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, fully implement the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, announce the timetable and road map for achieving peak carbon dioxide emissions and carbon neutrality, and introduce the "1+N" policy system for implementing the dual-carbon goal, leading the world in the field of renewable energy development, becoming the country with the greatest contribution to the global ozone layer protection, and making green practical. … As the largest developing country, China promotes the construction of a community of human and natural life with consistent determination and strong measures, and contributes to the protection of human common home and the realization of human sustainable development.

　　Simon Steele, Executive Secretary of the Secretariat of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, said that at present, the international community is facing an energy crisis, and China has made substantial progress in the field of climate change and played an important role in promoting the global response to climate change.

　　At present, the world is standing at the crossroads of history. The changes of the world, times and history are unfolding in an unprecedented way, and human society is facing unprecedented challenges. People pray for the sunshine of peace, development and progress to penetrate the haze of war, poverty and backwardness.

　　The road is not alone, and the world is a family. China is willing to work with other countries in the world to push the United Nations to play a more active role in the lofty cause of promoting human peace and development, to promote the common values of peace, development, fairness, justice, democracy and freedom, to safeguard world peace, promote world development and promote the building of a community of human destiny.

　　　　　　 CCTV News:With the game between the United States and North Korea in the past few days, the situation on the peninsula has been escalating. The South Korean government, which has always emphasized its independent national defense forces, has been exposed to be independently developing two secret weapons that can attack North Korea’s air power.

　　　　　　 According to the Korean media, the South Korean government, which has always emphasized its independent national defense power, is independently developing secret weapons that can attack North Moon Jae in’s air power. In the movie "Star Wars", there are weapons that can emit lasers and can destroy spacecraft. At present, the Korean army is developing this new weapon for independent national defense — — Rail guns and laser guns.

　　　　　　 According to reports, the railgun developed by the US Navy uses electromagnetic energy as thrust to launch shells at a speed several times higher than the speed of sound, mainly performing the tasks of destroying enemy ships and intercepting missiles. As a new weapon in the future, it only needs one shot to penetrate enemy missiles, ships and planes, and it is planned to assemble troops in actual combat in 2028.

　　　　　　 Korean media said that compared with American railguns, the railguns being developed by Korea National Defense Research Institute are also supersonic electromagnetic projectiles, but their flames and shells are smaller. It is expected that the "Korean version" railgun will complete technical research and development in the mid-1920s.

　　　　　　 In addition, the nuclear-free EMP bomb developed by the Korean army in 1999 to destroy enemy electronic equipment has successfully completed the test of destroying drones at a distance of 100 meters, and it is expected to have combat capability by the 1920s.

　　　　　　 Park Chang-kyu, former director of the Korea National Defense Science Research Institute, said that if the Korean army requires the assembly of EMP bombs, it should be able to meet the assembly requirements.

　　　　　　 The increasing tension has made the voice of South Korea’s ruling and opposition parties on the introduction of nuclear submarines gradually rise. In fact, as early as during the general election, Moon Jae in proposed to introduce nuclear submarines. When talking to US President Trump on the phone in early August this year, Moon Jae in also mentioned the issue of nuclear submarines, which shows the importance attached to this matter.

　　　　　　 However, some Korean experts believe that the introduction of nuclear submarines is not practical because of its huge consumption and high noise, which is easy to be discovered by the enemy. In addition, due to the constraints of the Korea-US Atomic Energy Agreement, from the perspective of prohibiting nuclear proliferation, the United States will not easily make an exception for South Korea. Even if the United States allows it, the cost of sharing defense fees and purchasing weapons may be beyond imagination.

　　　　　　 [Reminiscent] South Korea and the United States held short-range air defense exercises for the first time.

　　　　　　 In addition, according to Yonhap News Agency, the US Pacific Command announced on September 30th that the United States and South Korea held joint short-range air defense exercises on the Korean peninsula for the first time. "Short-range air defense" refers to the defense activities of shooting down enemy fighters invading South Korea’s airspace at low altitude with the Avenger short-range air defense missile as the main weapon.

　　　　　　 According to the report, in this short-range air defense exercise, the Korean and American armed forces connected the communication networks of the two sides and shared information, which enhanced the understanding of the Korean and American officers and men on the systems and weapons of the two sides, so as to establish close cooperation between the two armed forces. The South Korean and American military plans to continue to hold short-range air defense exercises to cultivate air defense capabilities suitable for the Korean Peninsula environment.

　　　　　　 The US military did not mention the specific time of the exercise and the number of participants. However, according to South Korea’s SBS TV station, in fact, the exercise was held on September 6 -8, after North Korea’s sixth nuclear test. Why did the US military choose to announce it at this time is intriguing.
