多年前，宜家家居曾做过这样一场活动：椅子几乎是成年人齐脖高，很难爬上去，桌子更有两米多高，看起来仿佛都是巨人使用的。为什么要让人 体验这个？原来，这是为了让那些为人父母的感受一下，对小孩子来说，家里的桌椅用起来是多么不方便。 在歌手郑智化痛斥深圳机场对待残障人士的做法"没人性"的争论中，我一下子就想到了这一活动。网上群情汹汹地骂郑智化，无非是替深圳机场辩 护，认为它做得已经够好了，然而这说到底还是站在健全人的角度，没能代入对方的处境，体会那有多么不适和屈辱。 就像成年人很少会想到自己用惯了的桌椅对小孩子而言意味着什么，健全人的视角也难免存在这样的盲点——因为我们的公共设施基本上都是服务 于主流人群的，一般人平日里习以为常，也就无所察觉，如果不是自己堕入那样的境地，很多人根本无从设想国内的无障碍设施用起来多么不方 便。 我是自己有了孩子之后，才赫然意识到这一点。以前哪怕提着行李爬楼梯，我也没太在意，但推着婴儿车带娃出行，必须得走无障碍通道，这时候 才发现形形色色的怪现状——绕远路还属于小事，难受的是绕远路过去发现无障碍设施根本没法用，有时居然是被锁起来了，又或者要进电梯居然 也得上几级台阶。这也罢了，推着婴儿车 ...

无论监管机构还是投资者，任何时候都要保持对市场的敬畏之 心。股指跨越4000点之后，我们更要理性地看待市场，防止 重蹈过去泡沫化的覆辙。 作者： 社论 封图：东方IC 10月28日，沪指突破4000点，创十年以来新高。市场的情绪为之一振。那些预测点位的分析师， 此前顶多想到4000点，现在都敢"看五望六"了。一直观望的投资者也敢"杀"进来了。有人甚至把 历史上仅有的两次股指站上4000点的情形拿出来详细分析，认为一旦突破，就是"轻舟已过万重 山"，前面将是一马平川。 正应了那句话——"4000点以前，4000点是顶；4000点以上，4000点是底"。 同时， 中国经济的稳健增长也为沪指重返4000点提供了良好的基本面。 但我们也要认识到，一 方面，中国经济仍面临贸易摩擦的长期影响，产业升级尚在进行中，消费的拉动作用仍待加强；另 一方面，当前市场结构性行情特征显著，芯片半导体、AI算力、机器人和新能源等科技板块是此 轮上涨的主线，而被寄予厚望的消费与医药板块表现则相对平淡。 当下而论，既要继续保持对股市的结构性看多，又要理性防范"慢牛"变成"疯牛"。无论监管机构还 是投资者，任何时候都要保持对市场的敬畏之心。 ...
