China’s economy is the envy of the world
https://edition.cnn.com/2020/10/19/investing/premarket-stocks-trading/index.html
China’s economy expanded by 4.9% in the third quarter compared to the previous year, according to government data published Monday, showing the rest of the world what’s possible when Covid-19 is brought under control.The pace of growth was a tad slower than economists had expected. But there were plenty of signs of strength, with the services and construction sectors performing especially well.China’s economy has now recovered from its historically bad first quarter, when the coronavirus forced the country to shut down. GDP grew a cumulative 0.7% through the first nine months of 2020, the data show. The best is yet to come.

Tesla exports Made-in-China Model 3 to Europe
The Made-in-China model 3 vehicles are ready to leave the port in Shanghai next Tuesday to be exported to Germany, France, Italy and other European countries, although CEO Elon Musk said the company did not plan to export when building its Gigafactory in Shanghai.
In the near future, Tesla hopes the Made-in-China vehicles can benefit global consumers not only through China manufacturing but China design, research and development, Song Gang, manufacturing and operations head of Tesla’s Gigafactory in Shanghai said, according to media reports on Monday.
Auto analysts tied the reason for exports to robust capacity at the Shanghai factory, competitive costs of “Made-in-China” products, and the complete supply chain in the Chinese auto sector.
Tesla is not alone. BMW and Polestar are making electric vehicles (EVs) in China and selling them to Europe.

巴黎翠凤蝶的中文命名并不是来源于其模式标本采自巴黎（其模式标本采自中国），而是由于其后翅有一块翠蓝色或翠绿色的斑，欧洲人称“翠绿”为巴黎翠，所以巴黎翠是其特征色，也属于其亚种名。
玉带凤蝶喜爱访花，尤其马缨丹、龙船花、茉莉等植物，寄主植物多为木兰科植物和芸香科植物，因对农业有害，果园应注意防治。玉带凤蝶多在市区、山麓、林缘和花圃活动。
玉带凤蝶翅展77-95mm，雌雄异型，雌蝶有多个型态，斑纹变化很大，翅黑色。雄蝶横贯全翅似玉带，故得名。
體長44-50mm，雄蟲複眼藍綠色，胸部藍灰色，腹部灰藍色具粉末，翅膀透明，後翅基具少許的黑褐色斑，翅痣黃褐色，腹端末2節藍黑色，雌蟲複眼褐色或藍綠色，合胸前視金黃色，側視具黑褐色或褐色粗線條紋， 底色金黃，翅透明，翅痣黃色，此為命名的由來。未熟雄蟲近似雌蟲但可從腹末節構造分辨，
老熟雄蟲體色漸淡，複眼呈藍綠色，腹部也灰藍色，雄蟲外觀近似呂宋蜻蜓可從後翅基及腹端分辨。本種分布於平地至低海山區，常見於路邊溝渠、池塘等水域活動，適應能力好，數量多。
