About those unexplained phenomena

It suddenly occurred to me that people are stil going to any length to find the traces of MH370. Maybe there are still many unexplained phenomena and events which happened around the world. Could u give some examples? Why do u think these days people can not explain?

Why Using English as a barrier?

AS  non-native English speakers, it is quite common for us to sit in various of English tests before having a western education. Now English learning has gradually changed from a process of mastering a communication tool to a massive worldwide bussiness. U may say, u do not need to have a western education.U are asking for trouble. But I'd like to say it is not about adore a certain country or culture, it is about knowing or learning more when we are young. BUT the reality is not what I think about.

Beauty or Health?

When we are young, we tend to put on cool clothes and attractive make-ups, showing our ideas about fashion and beauty.

However, my mom and grandma constantly tell me that being healthy is the true meaning of beauty..And they share links like "There are carcinogens in nail polish", "Waving hair would damage ur raven hair", "Showing off by Not putting on enough clothes on cold days would cause arthritis when old".....

I sometimes argue with them on their outlooks cauz youth is the most colourful period in our whole life time and we are free to express our ideas. But, after thinking deeply, I would say I'm not going to do sth that damage my health cauz without health,I  have no chance to enjoy beauty!

So that is only my humble opinion.What about urs??  :)  可能中国娃更会遇到这样的问题，因为我们的家长或是长辈还是偏于保守。。。:(

As I'm not a native English speaker, I'd appreciate if u could pick out my mistakes if possible:0
