7．If ever a drink were invented to satisfy the thirst of social media，this may be it．

With its fantastic name，bright pink and blue twist topped with a pillow of whipped cream，Starbucks'new Unicom Frappuccino（独角兽星冰乐） practically asks to be posted on social media．
And a glimpse at Twitter shows Unicom Frappuccino is indeed gaining attention．
So what's in it？As Starbucks describes it："A sweet dusting of pink powder，mixed into a Frappuccino with mango syrup and layered with a pleasantly sour blue drizzle．It is finished with vanilla whipped cream and a sprinkle of sweet pink and sour blue powder topping．"
A look at the ingredients reveals a list less fantastic．The pink powder is actually sugar and"Fruit and Vegetable Color．"
Starbucks advertises the drink"，as rare as a unicorn．"But unicorn food is actually a thing．The BBC reports，it's fashionable to post pictures of rainbow colored food which reminds of the fairy tale creature．
Rainbow sushi，anyone？
As for the Unicorn Frappuccino，Lori Aquino said the drink caught her eye on social media．Then people at work were talking about it．"I saw it was coming out today，so I decided to try it，"Aquino said at a Washington D．C．Starbucks．"I'll probably put it on Snapchat or Instagram．"

Letitia Winston agreed："Nope．That will not be something I come looking for．"
But Moriam Animashaun was more forgiving．"It's not bad，"she said，"It's just really sweet．"
A 16-ounce medium，or a grande in Starbucks speak，comes in at 410calories，59grams of sugar and 16grams of fat．
One thing the women agreed on was the drink's appearance．"It's pretty，"said Animashaun．
"It looks nice，"agreed Winston．
And in the age of likes，snaps and tweets，the fantasy image may be all that matters．
The Unicom Frappuccino is available April 19through April 23at participating stores in the United Stales，Canada and Mexico．

17．If Confucius（孔子）were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake，there would be a lot of candles．He'd need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out．
While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day，few people in the United States will give him a passing thought．It's nothing personal．Most Americans don't even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes．
But this doesn't mean that Americans don't care about Confucius．In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China．
In the past two decades，the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities．More recently，the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80countries．These schools teach both Chinese language and culture．The main courses of Chinese culture usually included Chinese art，history and philosophy．Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantages of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of Westerners philosophy．Students in the United States，at the same time，are racing to learn Chinese．So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States．Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers．
So the old thinker's ideas are still alive and well．
Today China attracts the West more than ever，and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West．
As for the old thinker，he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West，even if his birthday is．
