【社会】“China Cool”风靡海外 带旺中国清凉经济

巴黎街头热浪袭人，爱尔兰博主特拉维斯摇着扇子感慨：“眼下酷热难耐，中国部分地区或许更凉快，说不定可以去哈尔滨。”

继“China Travel”“Becoming Chinese”之后，“China Cool”成为海外社交平台的新晋热词，各国游客来华需求持续迭代。记者2日调查旅游市场获悉，这股“跨国纳凉”风潮，正在带旺体量可观的中国清凉经济。

北半球今夏持续高温，当地民众已经不满足于抢购中国空调，而是直接来华享受“天然空调”。航旅纵横民航官方直销平台大数据显示，民航出行热度自7月中下旬起逐周攀升。截至7月29日，8月中国出入境机票预订量超550万张，同比增长超6%。

【科技】小伙靠AI减肥45天瘦40斤直接减进ICU，全身炎症爆发，免疫系统崩溃

最近，成都小伙陈先生减肥把自己送进了ICU。他从事自媒体工作，长期熬夜、体重暴涨。为了减肥，陈先生借助AI工具制定高强度减肥计划，空腹健身，45天内瘦了40斤。结果突发昏迷被送至医院后，医生诊断出“多器官功能障碍综合征”（MODS）。

成都市第一人民医院重症医学科副主任曹良海解释，长期熬夜，饮食不规律，加上高强度运动让陈先生的免疫系统紊乱，且他的肾结石输尿管梗阻感染，进一步恶化成脓毒症，全身机体反应失调，多器官罢工。曹医生称，再晚几个小时，救治难度就更大。曹医生提醒，人真的会累死，长期熬夜或加班后，千万不要高强度锻炼。

Travel Virtually this Summer with Our New,

1-on-1 Online Course

This summer, we’ve launched a brand-new course: “Beyond the Guidebook: A Chinese Travel Course.” Each lesson takes you deep into one of China’s most fascinating cities, from iconic destinations like Beijing and Chengdu to lesser-known gems that even seasoned travelers often overlook.

Beyond the landmarks, you’ll discover the side streets, the hidden restaurants, the local stories. You’ll need to discuss and role-play some important travel decisions as they come up. It’s the kind of detail that only makes sense once you can actually speak the language.

The course is designed for intermediate learners (B1 and above) and combines cultural reading, real-life travel dialogues, and travel-centric discussion to build both your fluency and your confidence. Every lesson is a live, one-on-one session with a trained native Chinese teacher, so you get the local insight and the language practice, all in 60 minutes.

For this summer only, ARC readers can get an additional $10 discount with the voucher code “ARCTRAVEL”.
