An east China highway pile-up on April 2nd has killed three people and injured 31 others. That day was the first day of a three-day national holiday marking the Tomb-Sweeping Day.

Two people died in a local hospital where nine others are being treated. Another person died after treatment failed in a larger hospital in Wuxi where 22 remain hospitalized， Changzhou traffic police updated on its official microblog account at Weibo.com.

The accident happened at the Changzhou section of the highway linking Shanghai and Nanjing. It drew public attention as people began posting photos and videos on Chinese social media WeChat and Weibo. Images showed dozens of trucks， buses and cars crashed into each other. People were standing on top of the vehicles.

Local police told Xinhua Press that at least two trucks， three buses and 20 cars were involved. Rainy and foggy weather caused poor visibility and slippery roads.

What’s more， it was difficult for ambulances (救護(hù)車)to get to the scene of the accident because the life emergency lane was filled with vehicles， which delayed the rescue of the injured.

The Ministry (部長) of Public Security told traffic departments nationwide to keep a look out for vehicles using the emergency lane occupancy.

All highways in China leave the right lane as the emergency lane. Some drivers， however， pay no attention to this rule. Therefore， the police call on drivers to follow the rule strictly and offer the injured more hope of being saved.

The ministry also asked the police to watch the traffic more carefully so as to quickly discover the potential (潛在的) danger. The police have decided to add electronic monitoring instruments to catch the violations (違規(guī)者) and heavily fine drivers for it.

Women make up 50 percent of world’s population and yet they are not treated equally. They hold less than one-fifth of the all parliamentary (議會(huì)) seats around the world， occupy less than 19 percent of board (董事會(huì)) seats in Fortune 500 companies and earn 17 percent less than men for similar skills and positions. As a group， they are passed over and looked down on.

On March 8 every year， millions of women around the world celebrate International Women’s Day. It is possible that you may not have heard about the International Women’s Day in the United States. Yet Women's Day had its origin in the United States.

Women’s Day was first celebrated in February 1909 in the US to mark the one-year anniversary of the New York Garment Worker’s Strike of 1908. Women used the chance to fight against warring and fight for women’s vote rights.

Did you know that it was a Women’s Day protest in St. Petersburg in 1917， which led to the revolution (革命) for bringing down the Russian empire? After the Russian revolution， Women’s Day came to be celebrated as a communist (共產(chǎn)主義的) or socialist (社會(huì)主義的) holiday. As a result， the United States government didn’t accept it as a holiday.

Today Women’s Day is celebrated in places such as China and Russia as a sort of state-approved Valentine's Day or Mother's Day. The tradition in these countries is to give flowers and gifts to the important women in one's life.

In 1975， the United Nations officially announced March 8 as International Women’s Day. Since then， it has been a practice to suggest an annual theme for each year. The theme for 2016 is "Pledge For Parity." It calls on women and men to challenge the present state and inspire positive change in their communities and workplaces.

There is a lot that needs to be done. As a society， we need to offer women and girls chances to make their dreams come true， have equal chances for leadership， respect and value differences， and develop a better work environment. This day challenges and reminds that everyone can be a leader in their own small way and can take positive steps to bring about gender equality.

Our world can truly be balanced when we use the potential that women have to offer. As we prepare children for the future， it is important that girls and women not be left behind.
