When Yin was young, he had2 special talent for finding matsutakes. And he improved his3 life with this skill. At that time, matsutakes were very valuable. So even some small ones4 by the villagers before they were fully grown. As a result, the number of matsutakes dropped quickly year by year.

Yin realized that over-picking would make matsutakes disappear from Changbai Mountain one day. He was worried about it. He stopped picking matsutakes5, but he knew that was not enough. So he began to talk with the villagers and6 explained the importance of protecting matsutakes. He also advised them7 small matsutakes in the wild to grow and reproduce (繁殖). Day by day, people came to understand him and joined him in protecting matsutakes.

Years later, Yin received some photos from his grandson. They showed some very8 matsutakes growing quietly in the forest. Yin's eyes were filled with tears (眼泪)9 he saw the photos. He believed it was a special gift10 the forest. He felt truly proud of choosing to protect nature instead of taking everything away from it.

Each September, as a new school year begins, students in blue vests (背心) come together at Shaoxing University. They invite new students to join a1 program. The program offers free help to children in need, especially those with disabilities. It was2 to give back to society through knowledge.

Tian Xiangmei, one of the volunteers, helps a middle school girl who has difficulty in learning3. Tian uses simple ways like drawing circles to help her work on numbers. She also talks with the girl about her school life and helps her deal with4 challenges like making friends. Tian's willingness to help others has a lot to do with her5. She was raised by her grandparents and got a lot of help from kind people. So now she values every chance to help others in return.

Yang Xi, another volunteer, uses special cards to help her student learn English words6. "Now the boy thinks learning words is not so difficult." She also uses positive words to encourage her student. "I7 him even for the smallest progress," she said. The boy has now become more8. He speaks English more often and is not afraid to make mistakes anymore.

The program is not only a chance to give back to society, but also a way for volunteers to9. "This experience helps me become better. Now I have got more10 skills," said a third-year student. "I will continue with this meaningful program and help more children in need in the future," he added.

Scientists from China, the UK, and Canada studied these animals in the Southern Ocean. They focused on three kinds of these animals that eat tiny plants near the ocean's surface. These plants take in carbon dioxide (CO₂), a gas that makes the world warmer. But here is the key finding: in winter, the small animals swim down to about 500 meters below the surface. There, they breathe out the CO₂ from the plants they have eaten. This process, like a natural pump (泵), carries the gas down into the deep ocean.

Every year, this natural pump carries a lot of carbon—more than 70 million tons—to the deep ocean. It's so deep that the CO₂ cannot return to the air quickly.▲Without these animals, the level of CO₂ in the air would be much higher.

So, these tiny sea animals are true "unknown heroes". The study points out howcrucial it is to protect the Southern Ocean. However, fishing activities there are putting some small sea animals in danger. We must be careful not to harm this natural pump.

From June to early August last year, a group of foreign students took part in an international archaeology (考古学) summer program in China. They put textbook knowledge into.

Katie was one of the students who the program and she worked at the Liulihe Site (遗址). It was her first digging experience. She worked every day, checking every bit of soil slowly and patiently. She said the biggest was finding the very small differences in the soil. "These differences could tell us ancient people lived. We have to have a good eye for them," she said.

The program also organized cultural tours these students. They visited places such as the Great Wall, the Palace Museum and the Capital Museum. Another foreign student Haley took part in the program because of interest in Chinese culture. When she visited the Palace Museum, she was to find that traditional Chinese architectural (建筑的) culture was fully shown in the museum. "I think we can a lot from cultures that are different from our own," said Haley.

This program was a experience for these foreign students. It not only allowed them to experience real archaeological work but also deepened their understanding of Chinese history and culture.

Mike, a famous educator, recently shared his thoughts on how AI is changing work and education. He believes that AI may completely change work and education in the next five years.

After learning that Shenzhen has started using AIworkers to deal with certain tasks, Mike said it sends a clear message: AI is very good at jobs with fixed answers. And it will take over these jobs soon.

With the help of AI, more children are no longer receiving a narrow education that only focuses on exams. Mike thinks it is a positive change in education because it helps prepare students for future life and work.

Mike says China is strong in AI. And Mike's school group in China focuses on teaching human skills with the help of AI. Students and teachers there use AI tools as a helpful partner for learning and teaching.

Although Mike is really hopeful about the future of AI in education, there are still some challenges. For example, schools in some areas cannot afford these new technologies. And teachers need to learn how to use AI well too. It's not easy for them to change their old teaching ways. But he will keep working to make AI a better helper for students and teachers all over the world.
