A Chinese song contest (比赛) for overseas Chinese was held in London on Sunday. It was organized by the London Chinatown Chinese Association.

Twenty competitors were divided into three age groups: adults (18-40), juniors (12-17) and children (5-11). The contest awarded one gold, one silver and one bronze prize for each group. The winners will attend the final contest in Beijing this summer.

In a welcome speech, Jiang Lei, consul general of the Chinese Embassy (中国大使馆总领事) in the UK, said the contest is a great platform to show the talents of overseas Chinese and promote (弘扬) traditional Chinese culture. "2024 marks the Year of the Dragon. It's especially meaningful for overseas Chinese to get together and sing Chinese songs. I believe that these young competitors will move from today's small stage to larger ones in the future," she said.

You are running in the playground. But then suddenly, you fall and hurt yourself. "Ow!" you cry. This sound is very familiar to us all. Crying out when we get hurt is a natural action. But have you thought about why we shout it out? And do people from different languages make the similar sound?

Scientists now believe they've found out the reason: shouting the word "ow" partly stops pain messages from traveling to the brain. So by shouting it out, people can feel less pain.

The scientists tested how long volunteers could hold their hands in very cold water. In the first group, they were allowed to shout "ow" when they felt pain. In another group they had to stay silent. The results showed that volunteers were able to keep their hands in the cold water for longer when they were allowed to shout out. Shouting out "ow" helps humans feel less pain and add the time.

What's more, scientists have also found that different languages have similar expressions of pain. While cries of "ow" or "ouch" are heard in English, South Africans yell "eina".

These languages have one thing in common: when people shout them, the mouth simply opens, the tongue (舌头)lies flat and the lips (嘴唇) unrounded. It is a simple sound that requires little control, so it's easy to make a big sound. For the reasons, these sounds are useful to shout if we feel pain.

Pan Yuzhen, 77, comes from Taijiang County, Guizhou Province. She is an inheritor(继承人) of Miao embroidery(刺绣).

" The girls in my hometown can embroider at an early age. When I was five years old, I learned embroidery from my mother and sister. Miao embroidery skills are not easy to learn, but I have learned all embroidery methods," Pan said. At first, Pan embroidered for her own use, but as she grew older and married, her skills were put to use for her family, creating beautiful embroidered clothes.

Pan's daughter Zhang Yammei, who was born in 1977, suffered from an illness at the age of three. To treat her daughter and feed the family, Pan embarked on (开始) a journey, travelling to different cities to sell her Miao embroidery products.

In 1999, Zhang went to Beijing to join her mother. At that time, Pan had a store in a market. Here, she met a lot of foreign friends who were attracted by her embroidery skills and encouraged her to expand her business abroad." They advised me to go to foreign countries and sell cultural and creative products. Then I went to the US to do business connected with Miao embroidery," Pan said.

In 2016, Pan's career took a huge leap forward as she worked with a famous clothing brand in China . With the help of the brand, Pan went to the UK to take part in different fashion shows. Now Pan is well- known. Pan hopes more young people can inherit Miao embroidery skills.
