行花街，过大年。在岭南地区，逛花市是春节必不可少的活动。兔年新春临近，广东多款年宵花迎来销售旺季，寓意较好的冬青、年桔、蝴蝶兰等深受广府人青睐，花商生意迎来“开门红”。
作为中国大型花卉综合零售批发市场之一，位于广州荔湾区的岭南花卉市场已经挂起了红灯笼，部分商家开始售卖兔子造型的花盆，年味浓郁。不少市民专门开车前来选购年花、年桔，花卉市场的车辆川流不息。
在一家蝴蝶兰专卖店，造型精美的蝴蝶兰摆放在显眼的位置，上面挂着“幸福安康”“升职加薪”等祝福卡片。该店店员姚小姐告诉记者，今年为了提高销量，特意推出可以快递到家的蝴蝶兰盆景礼盒，它有一个带灯的圆形装饰，寓意圆圆满满。

除了传统的年宵花，岭南花卉市场也推出一些进口花卉品种，包括寸寸金、牡丹菊、腊梅等。在辉皇迎霄花店，五颜六色的进口和国产鲜切花吸引顾客挑选购买。
“这两天市场的人流量比往年增加很多，停车场的车都停满了，有的花店专门从外地过来订货，还有客户现场挑选鲜花后在线上下单。”辉皇迎霄花店负责人黄永富介绍：“我们推出了‘云买花’直播活动来促进散户购买，预计今年销量会有20%左右的增幅。”
广州的袁先生今年特意带上外地女朋友到岭南花卉市场购买年宵花，带她感受岭南文化。“往年家里买蝴蝶兰比较多，今天看到很多新的品种，以前都没见过，我们想先逛一圈再买。”袁先生说。
广州市岭南花卉市场经营管理有限公司负责人刘贵生介绍，今年元旦以来，市场人流量比往年增加10%，一些商户很早就开始布置店铺，营造过年的气氛。
“今年蝴蝶兰还有一些鲜切花的价格提升了一点，其他基本持平。很多花市的摊主都来我们这里拿货，整个市场的订单量比去年有所增加。”刘贵生说。
第39届陈村迎春花市近日启动，这是佛山最大的花市。今年陈村迎春花市升级打造“两点一带八景”的十里花街，绵延10公里，沿途有超500个花场和700个摊位，囊括近万个年宵花卉品种。
第39届陈村迎春花市的年桔塔吸引参观者。 陈楚红 摄记者日前在陈村迎春花市看到，一个巨型年桔塔屹立在世界展览中心前广场，它由1138盆、16层寓意“大吉大利”的年桔树组成，通高16.8米。有年轻人特意在此拍照打卡，为新的一年祈福。
“一盆花不用一笼排骨的价格，还可以欣赏几个月……”在陈村迎春花市，一摊位前的喇叭正循环播放着自制宣传语，逛花市的市民循声而来，围满摊位，挑选中意的蝴蝶兰。
“我们的宣传语主要突出价廉物美，大杯双枝蝴蝶兰三十元(人民币)一盆，性价比很高。用喇叭推销的方式提升了我们的销量，现在一天可以卖两三百盆。”惠发园艺负责人林女士说。
第39届陈村迎春花市一摊位的蝴蝶兰吸引消费者。 陈楚红 摄佛山市民曾小姐带着女儿专门从佛山禅城区过来逛陈村花市。“今年花卉品种挺多，给女儿买了一株风信子，自己买了一盆菊花，这是我第一次见到这个品种，挺大一个。希望新的一年大家身体健康，顺顺利利。”曾小姐说。(完)
中新网评：美国众议长选举“连续剧”暴露美式民主痼疾****** 中新网北京1月9日电(蒋鲤)在15轮投票表决后，美国众议院议长选举这场“连续剧”终于落下帷幕，众议院共和党领袖凯文•麦卡锡最终成功当选第55任美国众议院议长。这是美国国会过去164年来耗时最久的一次议长选举记录，将美国“对抗式民主”的弊端暴露无遗。  资料图：美国众议院共和党领袖麦卡锡。中新社记者 沙晗汀 摄由于两党对立加剧、党派内斗、利益分配不均等因素，众议长选举陷入一场拉锯战。在此次众议长竞选中，美国民主党议员继续抱团，多轮投票中，一票不投麦卡锡，共和党右翼“强硬派”领头的约20人小团体也拒绝投票麦卡锡。 麦卡锡的当选之路一波三折，除了本人的“政治投机派”角色在国会不受欢迎外，与共和党内部政治分歧关系密切。 一方面，共和党党内反对者认为，麦卡锡对民主党态度过于软弱，无力对抗民主党控制的参议院和拜登政府，另一方面，因为共和党的多数优势微弱，党内一些影响力较小的派系的政治力量则被放大，有利于他们巩固自己的选票。 此外，党内反对者也认为，自己的选票没有换取更多利益，希望以此作为筹码换取麦卡锡更大的让步，比如让他们获得众议院重要委员会中的职务。 作为仅次于美国总统、副总统的政坛三号人物，众议院议长通常由众议院多数党领袖担任，选举几乎没有悬念。然而，麦卡锡此次为当选，不得不做出多个关键让步，其中可能包括恢复一项罢黜议长动议机制，使得众议长的权力被削弱，难以掌控众议院。 美国有线电视新闻网CNN称，麦卡锡在这场不合时宜的政治勒索中作出让步，这种绥靖政策只会让极端主义势力更加强大。 这场引发全世界围观的尴尬选举暴露出美国政治存在严重的对立和分化。在权力博弈思维的裹挟下，党派利益凌驾于国家和人民利益之上，美国两党相互拆台，陷入“为反对而反对”的无脑对垒。而即便是一党内，也会因为利益分配问题产生不同的小派系，相互对抗，选票变成了谋利益的工具。 从国会山骚乱到打破记历史记录的15轮众议长选举，“对抗式民主”让美国政治陷入瓶颈，长期对抗势必会让政客们丧失客观公正的判断能力，其政治阶层是否有能力治理国家也会引发质疑。 两党之争和党派内斗进一步放大了美国政治体制弊病，美国所谓的“民主”形象，让全世界大跌眼镜。鼓吹以选民利益为先的美式选举，变成了政客们利益置换的游戏，进一步彰显出美国“民主政治”日渐失能，不断极化的党争已使美国政治制度陷入死循环。  House speaker election reveals deep-rooted problems in U.S. democracy (ECNS) -- The Republican leader Kevin McCarthy was elected as the 55th speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives after 15 ballots. As the most grueling House speaker election in the past 164 years, the election has highlighted the defects of the country’s "confrontational democracy". The election once reached a stalemate due to intense partisan strife, inner-party struggle among the Republicans, uneven distribution of interests, and more. Democratic Party members forged a close alliance, refusing to vote for McCarthy, while about 20 Republicans also declined to cast ballots for the GOP leader. Except for his unpopular role as a "political speculator" in Congress, McCarthy’s hard-won election can be attributed to turmoil within the Republican Party. On the one hand, opponents in the Republican Party believe that the GOP leader's attitude toward the Democrats is too weak to confront the Senate controlled by Democrats and the Biden administration. On the other hand, the political power of some less influential factions in the Republican Party has been amplified due to the Party’s weak majority advantage in the House of Representatives, which is conducive to consolidating their ticket warehouses. Meanwhile, these opponents believe that their votes failed to win them more benefits, hoping to use this as a bargaining chip for McCarthy's further concessions, such as getting them positions in important House Committees. As the third political figure after the President and Vice President of the U.S., the speaker, by tradition, is the head of the majority party in the House of Representatives. But McCarthy has made many concessions in order to bring the ultra conservatives along, involving what’s known as the “motion to vacate,” a mechanism by which members can force a vote to depose the speaker. The reported concessions will empower individual members at the expense of McCarthy’s sway as speaker. CNN thought the concessions he made during this unseemly political shakedown would only make the extremist faction more powerful. This embarrassing election, which has drawn global attention, exposed the serious opposition and polarization in American politics. Both Democrats and Republicans put their interests before that of the country and its people, attacking and opposing each other irrationally. Besides, different factions arise within a single party and confront each other because of the distribution of interests. Votes have become a tool to win more benefits. From Capitol riots to the House Speaker election with record-breaking ballots, "confrontational democracy" has become a bottleneck of American politics. Long-term confrontation will surely impede politicians to think objectively and fairly while their capacity of governing the country will also raise doubts among the public. Both parties’ struggle and infighting among the Republicans have further amplified the defects of the American political system, with its "democratic" image shocking the world. The U.S.-style election, which advocates putting voters' interests first, has become a game of interest exchange among politicians. In addition, it further demonstrates the malfunction of American "democratic politics" and the constantly polarized party struggle that has trapped the American political system into an infinite cycle.
