This year the singer Taylor Swift performed in its livestreamed evening gala (慶典) in Shanghai on Sunday. In previous years the model Miranda Kerr and the actors Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig also showed on the Singles Day stage. Alibaba started taking the lead in China, simply enough, by connecting big Chinese manufacturers with big buyers across the world. Its businesstobusiness site, allowed people to buy almost everything. Alibaba39。s advantage wasn39。t hard to see: size. Alibaba is just big, even by Chinese standards. Alibaba now calls itself a data and technology pany, one that provides digital tools to help the businesses on its platforms.

They seldom need a referee (裁判) and rarely trouble to keep scores. They don39。t care much about who wins or loses, and it doesn39。t seem to worry them if the game is not finished. Yet, they like games that depend a lot on luck, so that their personal abilities cannot be directly pared. They also enjoyed games that move in stages, in which each stage, the choosing of leaders, the pickingup of sides, or the determining of which side shall start, is almost a game in itself. Grownups can hardly find children39。s game exciting, and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple game again and again. However, it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons. He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person, and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is ordinary afraid. He bees a leader when it es to his turn. He can be confident, too, in particular games, that it is his place to give orders, to pretend to be dead, to throw a ball actually at someone, or to kiss someone he has caught. It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control. Everyone knows the rules, and more importantly, everyone plays according to the rules. Those rules may be childish, but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.（1）What is true about children when they play games?
