 The picture was taken in a primary school located in a poor mountainous area, China. Pupils were doing radio calisthenics for the first time. Unlike their peers living in cities, children here had never received physical education. |

Reflections on Abortion in China
On Thursday 9 February, a thought-provoking lecture about abortion in China was delivered at UCL by Cong Yali 丛亚丽, a professor at Peking University and one of China’s leading bioethicists. Prof. Cong introduced her research on abortion in China and explained the reasons why Chinese people seem to exhibit indifference to the performance of abortion. She stated that in traditional Chinese culture, the foetus, rather than being regarded as a human, was frequently considered as an instrument for the continuation of a clan. In addition she said, in contemporary China, no law existed to protect the foetus’s right to life, and abortion was not a crime. Thus performing an abortion was more of a family decision than a public ethical issue or a legal issue in China.
Despite the widespread apathy among the Chinese public towards the performance of abortion, Chinese scholars like Cong have paid increasing attention to issues surrounding abortion in China since the 1980s. The number of publications on abortion which contain keywords such as ‘right to life’, and ‘reproductive rights’ has increased dramatically since 2000. Moreover, studies on abortion in China are carried out not only in the field of medical science but also in demography, law, politics, etc.(I used “duotai 堕胎” (abortion) as the key word to extract publication records for the period 1894 to present in the CNKI database.) These statistics indicate that abortion in China tends to be an interdisciplinary research topic and is bound to resonate with legal, historical as well as ethical issues.

Themes of Escape and Return in Amy Tan's The Joy Luck Club
《喜福会》中，生长在美国的华人女孩吴精美是一个典型的“香蕉人”――有着黄皮肤的外表却带有一颗地道白人文化的心。在精美的成长中，她所受的西式教育与地道中式思维的母亲之间的矛盾决定了她不可避免地实施“逃离”：对母亲的逃离、对母爱的逃离和对母亲梦想的逃离。小说第一章“千里鸿毛一片心”里，谭恩美用一个富有深意的故事开了头――一位远渡重洋的母亲带着一只天鹅来到异国，期盼在这新的国度上自己会有一个天鹅一样的女儿，这个女儿“将事事顺心，应有尽有”。这个带着深厚寓意的故事强调了三个主体：一个是母亲，即漂洋过海的主人公;另一个是“母爱”，通过母亲的期盼自己的女儿“事事顺心，应有尽有”表现出来;第三个是“梦想”，则通过拥有一个天鹅般的女儿体现。但在前两章小说中，女儿吴精美显然是对开头故事里三个主体的完全背离。
