Practice Simplified Chinese Reading with Intermediate Texts and PassagesI’ll take a good “tweet” and translate it here, with a link to the user that posted it. If you’re looking for new and innovative ways to learn Chinese, may I suggest signing up for a WeiBo account of your own? It’s free, it’s not too difficult to sign up (just keep pushing the big green buttons), it’s a great way to get a steady stream of blurbs for practice.

迷宫 – mí gōng – Labyrinth, maze
景物 – jǐng wù – Scenery

[Living in] the labyrinth-like city, people become accustomed to seeing the same scenery, walking the same paths, and reaching the same destinations; but routines make people’s lives stagnant. The routine give people a sense of security, but also a sense of loneliness. And you’ll never know what you could be missing out on.
