New York Fashion Week’s annual fall&winter collection had a surprising 【1】 this season. She’s Tao Huabi, the 71-year-old founder of Lao Gan Ma chili sauce.

【2】 of Tao were printed on designer hoodies(卫衣). The event was part of the fashion week’s China Day 【3】 ---a joint effort with e-commerce giant Alibaba. The activity aims to put popular Chinese brands on an international stage.

Underneath Tao’s portrait were printed the Chinese characters for “lao gan ma”. The right and left sleeves, 【4】, show English words “sauce queen” and the Chinese characters for “national diva(国民女神)”. The item was sold in the U.S. throughout New York Fashion Week for $ 120. At home it was given away as a 【5】 gift to customers who purchased Lao Gan Ma food products on Tmall on China Day. They were also, of course, sold on Tmall.

Many Chinese netizens feel 【6】 nostalgic(怀旧的) for the sauces that have 【7】 their taste buds for two decades. Tao founded the Lao Gan Ma company in 1997, and has since 【8】 her business into a 7.5-billion-yuan empire. Today, her name is synonymous with(和…同义) the brand itself, and her products are beloved by locals and foreigners alike.

This season, Tao’s chili sauce is one of 【9】 brands invited by Alibaba to feature at New York Fashion Week. Others include a traditional Chinese medicine company, 【10】 brands, and a mineral water company.

Many students in China regard passing the college entrance examination as the ultimate (终极的) goal of academic life. Almost all students study hard up to senior high school to get higher grades in every subject, and be in a better position to excel in gaokao and get admitted to a “good” university, fewer challenges lie between them and a college diploma. Therefore, quite a few students, over-burdened with studies since their primary school days, lose interest in studies, let alone excelling in academics after entering a university.

However, getting a college degree now requires more effort than it did before. In September, the Ministry of Education released an announcement, requiring universities to increase the difficulty of undergraduate courses and work harder to end academic misconduct in bachelor’s theses (毕业论文). Universities will reasonably increase students’ academic burden to encourage them to work harder and improve their knowledge and skill levels.

However, while the Ministry of Education’s plans aim to increase university students’ academic burden, they’re not intended to put extra pressure on them. Instead, the new requirements are meant to fulfill the basic requirements of university education.

There is a difference between science and technology. Science is a method of answering theoretical questions; technology is a method of solving 【1】 problems. Science has to do with discovering the facts and relationships 【2】 in the observable natural world and with building up theories that serve to organize these facts and relationships; technology has to do with tools, techniques, and methods for carrying out the 【3】 of science.

Another difference between science and technology has to do with the 【4】 in each.

Progress in science does not consider the human factor. Scientists make a study of the universe, try to explain the rules of nature and strive to find out the truth. They can 【5】 pay attention to their own or other people’s likes or dislikes or to popular ideas about the fitness of things. What scientists discover may shock or anger people—as did Darwin’s theory of evolution. But even a(n) 【6】 truth is more than likely to be useful; besides, we have the choice of refusing to believe it! But hardly so with technology; we do not have the choice of refusing to hear the noises produced by an airplane flying overhead; we do not have the choice of refusing to breathe 【7】 air; and we do not have the choice of living in a non-atomic age. Unlike science, progress in technology must be 【8】 in terms of the human factor. Technology must be our slave and not the 【9】. The purpose of technology is to serve people in general, not merely some people; and future generation, not merely those who presently wish to gain advantage for themselves. Technology must be 【10】 if it is to lead to a better world.
