标题：China’s Spiritual Economy Is Booming as Gen Z Turns  to Tarot 
Anxious about their prospects, younger Chinese are seeking a glimpse of the future through astrology and other forms of fortune-telling. 

正文：At a dimly lit bar in Beijing, the rattle of wooden sticks used for fortune telling  blends with the clink of cocktail glasses. Patrons here aren’t just ordering drinks — they seek a glimpse into the future. These hybrid venues — where mixology meets mysticism —are cropping up across Chinese cities, offering drinks alongside tarot readings and other means of divining whatever is to come. It’s part of a broader boom in what analysts are calling China’s Xuanxue, or metaphysical, economy — an expanding sector that includes astrology, tarot and crystal healing.

标题：Why India has so many snakebites 
And what to do about it 

正文：FARAH KHATRI is lucky to be alive. The stars had to align for her to survive after being bitten by a saw-scaled viper while planting trees in north Mumbai. She was in a major city with many public hospitals. One of her companions had a car to drive her there immediately. Along the gridlocked route an ambulance from that very hospital appeared out of nowhere, allowing the car to follow in its slipstream. Her luck almost ran out because the hospital lacked a ventilator—crucial in snakebite treatment—but an ambulance driver raced to get her 24km to the nearest facility with both antivenom and ventilators. “I believe it’s a miracle, ” says Ms Khatri. 

知识点：the stars had to align /ðə stɑːrz hæd tu əˈlaɪn/（英）；/ðə stɑːrz hæd tu əˈlaɪn/（美），idiom.
