In the comical play, there is a monologue that imitates the various hawking sounds of Shanghai's "old bottom" street vendors. The shouting is lifelike, and the tone is rhythmic, attracting enthusiastic applause from the audience. The slightly older audience also emits bursts of knowing laughter. These shouting sounds are too friendly to everyone, but they haven't been heard for a long time. The clamor heralds the season's transition - from late spring to early autumn, vendors carry baskets and sell white sugar plums, sandalwood olives, loquats, and cherries.

The art exhibition "I perceive, I exist" recently opened at the Shanghai Huamao Center on the North Bund.

Not developing can lead to illness. Interview with family education | Psychiatrist Chen Fafa ③: Family is like the relationship between life forms | Family | Family education

Going to the study: In a family, there are relationships such as marital, parent-child, sibling, and possibly other relationships. What is the most important relationship that affects the level of family health? Chen Fafa: Dr. Li Weirong, a family therapist, once conducted a very meaningful experiment by measuring a child's electrophysiological response to evaluate in what kind of family relationship, the child's emotional response is the most intense. The results showed that the most intense emotional response in children is not due to criticism or blame from parents, or their own mistakes, but rather conflicts between parents. That is to say, what children are most concerned about is the relationship between parents, and the most important relationship in a nuclear family is the marital relationship. The evaluation of marital relationships is the most important part of family health assessment, and divorce and separation are important indexes for evaluating marital relationships. Divorce means marriage

Family Education Interview | Psychiatrist Chen Fafa ②: "Problem Children" are Sculpted Step by Step by the Family Model | Family | Interview | Psychiatry

Going to the study: What kind of family is prone to getting sick? Chen Fazhan: Early views believed that families without problems or symptoms were normal. This viewpoint is based on the traditional pathological defect orientation, emphasizing the pathological components in the family process and ignoring the positive resources in the family interaction process. In fact, there is still a long way to go from "no problem" to "happiness". Another viewpoint holds that "normal family" refers to the normal operating mode of most families under the same social and cultural background. In fact, common family patterns may not necessarily be healthy, such as son preference and domestic violence during specific periods, which can have destructive effects on both families and individuals. Uncommon family patterns may not necessarily be unhealthy, such as divorced families, where adults can bravely choose their own love and marriage

The middle and high school entrance exams have ended and summer vacation has begun, but around learning, some families are still filled with gunpowder: parents believe that their children are not working hard enough, and even have internet addiction; Children express their growth efforts in exaggerated ways. Not doing homework, playing games, watching videos... Children hide in "problems", while parents only see "problems" and not people. Understanding the problem, understanding the people behind the problem, and understanding the family behind the people are the core viewpoints of medical doctor and psychiatrist Chen Fafa. He writes books, gives lectures, and opens video accounts, constantly telling everyone how families shape independent individuals, how to avoid cross-border behaviors caused by unclear family boundaries, how families in difficult situations seek positive change, and how to better understand their own and family's psychological problems from the perspective of the family system, so as to grow into healthier and more complete individuals

How to accurately "copy" characters in ancient China? How can a rare bronze artifact be fully reproduced on paper, even with intricate patterns and patterns? Although there were no photocopiers or cameras in the past, the technique of inheriting and developing gold and stone can turn these wishes into reality. The new exhibition "Keeping Up with the Times - Exhibition of Gold and Stone Transmission and Expansion Techniques" launched by the Shanghai Museum will showcase to the public this technique that is still used in various fields such as cultural relic research. The Jinshi Chuantuo Art Exhibition launched on the Shanghai Expo and the ongoing "Yuchu Liufang: Shanghai Museum Collection of Song and Yuan Ancient Books" exhibition were both considered niche and professional, but they have attracted a large number of audience attention.

The Tao Body Theater has returned.

This brand of book selection bookstore, located under the Guomai Culture Building of the publishing institution, has quietly risen to the second highest praise list of bookstores in Xuhui District and the sixth highest in Shanghai. 2040 Bookstore is located along the street in the western district of the West Coast Creative Park, and appears to have a different temperament among the numerous home and building material stores in the surrounding area. Jiang Yue, the permanent store manager and main person in charge of 2040 Bookstore, said that as a selected bookstore, "2040" means "choose one from a thousand miles", which means selecting 1000 books out of 2.04 million books in the annual book market. When choosing books to be listed, three factors are mainly considered - "whether it has been verified over time" and "whether it has been widely accepted by the general public readers"
