Fu Cong, known as the “greatest modern pianist” and “piano poet”, died of COVID-19 at a hospital in London last year. You may not be familiar with him, but you might have read the book Fu Lei’s Family Letters (《傅雷家书》) written by his father Fu Lei, a famous translator and writer, which influenced a generation of Chinese readers.
Fu Cong was born on March 10th, 1934, in Shanghai. A lover of classical music from a young age. 1.傅聪7岁的时候开始上钢琴课。But the chaos (混乱) of wartime China prevented him from receiving a systematic musical education. 2. Then in his teens, Fu Cong moved with his family to Yunnan, where he experienced an unusual period.
Between 1954 and 1966, Fu Cong spent a lot of time away from home to train as a piano player. 3.结果,写信成为了傅雷与儿子交流的常见方式。The letters fully showed Fu Lei’s family tradition and value. To Fu Lei, education is not only a family matter, but also something with great social value.
Fu Lei also advised his son to read famous Chinese texts. He told Fu Cong to fully understand their meanings and connect ideas with feelings in order to become a better person. Fu Lei thinks learning to be a good person comes before any academic (学术) training. On 27th December 1954, Fu Lei wrote, “Everyone should be a good person before becoming an expert in any field. Otherwise, 4. that person will not get much academic achievement, no matter how knowledgeable he is.”
5. Full of advice, encouragement, and a father’s love, Fu Lei’s Family Letters became a best seller in China. It has been sold more than one million copies in China and has been translated into Japanese and Korean. It helps many young students understand how they should live their lives.

24、Trains connect not only cities but also people. Through railways, people move and communicate more, which is important for the development of a country. Indonesia’s first railway was built in 1867. It was the second Asian country ever had railways. However, with the development of society and population growth, the railways in Indonesia couldn’t meet people’s needs. The country needed new railways!
It’s worth celebrating that China has helped Indonesia build a high-speed railway! It is the first high-speed railway in the country, as well as in Southeast Asia. The high-speed railway between Jakarta and Bandung is about 142 km long. The railway is the first overseas high-speed railway project that fully uses Chinese technology and standards.
The train can carry about 600 people. There is one first-class car, six second-class cars and one dining car. It can run at a top speed of 350 km/h. Thanks to the high-speed railway, it takes much less time to travel between Jakarta and Bandung. “It used to take about 3 hours to travel between Jakarta and Bandung, but the time is now about 40 minutes by taking the new train,” says someone from Bandung. The railway brings a lot of benefits to people along the way. For example, it provides lots of jobs during its building. It also helps with the business along the way.
High-speed railways meet people’s need to move between different places.
