It may surprise you to know that at every Olympic Games, some sports are added and others taken away. For example, did you know that tug- of- war was once an Olympic sport? It was dropped long ago though. In London2012, women's boxing was added. In Rio 2016, golf and rugby sevens were included. Baseball and softball were dropped after Beijing 2008. but returned for Tokyo 2020. Another sport that got approyed for Tokyo 2020 was climbing. One sport that isn't on the list of Olympic Games, is trampoline dodgeball(蹦床躲避球). Both climbing and trampoline dodgeball are popular with teens. That's because you don't need to invest in lots of expensive equinment. The following is more related information about them.
Dodgeball is a team game in which players throw balls at each other. The objective is to beat the opposing team's players by hitting them with a ball, catching a ball( the thrower is out), or forcing a player out of the court. In trampoline dodgeball, the game is the same but takes place on a court made out of trampolines. The court has a bouncy floor and high bouncy walls. It's surrounded by nets to catch the balls. The action is fast and fun, and you'll always have a soft landing if you fall!
When might trampoline dodgeball be an Olympic sport? Nobody knows! New sports must fulfil many strict rules before they're accepted. For example, trampoline dodgeball will need to have one set of rules that everyone follows. This includes playing in the same- sized court using the same type of ball.

Why do many Chinese people refuse to cut their hair during the first month of the lunar year?
This is because people in China believe that getting a haircut during the first lunar month will cause their mothers' brothers to die. Although it's not true, some people still believe it. So, after waiting for a month, people usually can't wait to cut their hair on Dragon Head-raising Day —the second day of the second lunar month. It is common to see people line up outside barbershops(理发店) on the day.
Dragon Head-raising Day is an important traditional Chinese festival. Ancient people believed that after this day, rainfall would increase because the rain-bringing Dragon King would wake up from his winter sleep. So that day is the start of spring and farming.
A well-known saying goes, "On the second day of the second-lunar month, the dragon lifts his head."
Besides cutting their hair, people do other things to celebrate this festival. For example, they eat food with "dragon names". People call noodles the dragon's bear d (龙须). Dumplings are the dragon's ears and spring rolls (春卷) are the dragon's scales(龙鳞).
