5、Eating healthy and working out are good habits. Being careful with money is a good habit, too. It's not as difficult as you think. Remember these three words: save, spend, share.
Most young kids don't have real jobs. But you can still make money. Ask your neighbors (邻居). You can also talk to your parents. They could give you some money if you help with the housework in your home. And you can put your money in a bank. Banks keep your money safe.
You work really hard to make money and may want to spend it. Before you buy something, ask yourself if you need it or want it and if you have enough money for it. Set goals (目标) for yourself. Maybe you want to buy a toy. That's a short-term goal. Or maybe you want to buy a car one day. That's a long-term goal. Make a plan for how much you will spend. Keep to your plan. And remember your goals.
You can also use your money to help others. Think about what is important to you. Do you like animals? Donate (捐赠) your money to an animal shelter (收容所). Even a little help can make a big difference.
Remember: save, spend and share. Being smart with money is a good habit. Your future self will thank you!

6、Do you know anything about the balance (平衡) of nature? Here is an example.
Not many years ago, some farmers were worried because hawks (鹰) took many of their chickens, so the farmers killed many hawks. They no longer had to worry about their chickens. But then they had new worries. Mice ate the farmers' food. How did this happen? Hawks ate not only chickens but also mice. They ate more mice than chickens. But the farmers did not know this. When they killed many hawks, they changed the balance of nature.
Changing the balance is bad for nature. Sometimes when people move into a new place, they often cut down many plants. Some of these plants are good for animals. If the animals cannot find food to eat, they will die or have to leave the place.
Here is another example. In a place of the United States, the giraffes there ate a kind of rose; the lion there ate the giraffes. The number of the giraffes, lions and wild roses did not change much if people kept things as they were. But people killed many lions to protect the giraffes. Soon there were so many giraffes that they ate up all the roses. Then the giraffes began to eat leaves of young trees. These trees were important to people. So people thought of ways to protect trees. Now the giraffes had nothing to eat, and many of them died. This was another lesson from nature.
Please always keep this in mind: it's important for us to keep the balance of nature.

Under the "AI" concept, a new business model in the education industry "AI self-study rooms" has recently appeared in China and is attracting increasing attention and causing different opinions.
AI self-study rooms combine AI learning tools, study monitors, and a suitable learning environment. Students take online courses and do exercises with learning devices. Meanwhile, monitors help maintain discipline, and apply AI to find weak knowledge points and design personalized study plans for students.
A parent told Global Times that AI learning devices are more interactive than regular online courses, analyzing performance and recommending suitably challenging questions to meet students' specific learning goals. "Now, students in rural areas can conduct virtual biology experiments through AI study rooms, which were previously impossible due to limited local resources. " A teacher from Qinghai said.
Some people praise their advantages, while others think AI self-study rooms are just showy tricks. Some students say certain AI learning devices are not smart enough as they can't adjust teaching to individual needs and only offer mechanical practice. Their updates are too slow, and their fixed question banks often have mistakes, which might mislead students.
Regarding the cost, it is 200 yuan for one hour on weekends while there is a 20% discount(折扣) on weekdays. "We can't afford this service. We have to think carefully about whether the price matches the learning effect. " a parent from Jiangsu told the Global Times.
"I believe AI contributes to education, but AI self-study rooms, as a new industry, face problems like poor integration and unbalanced quality. Still, continuous technological progress and wider applications will make AI learning more important in the future, " said Professor Huang, Director of the Beijing Academy of Social Sciences.

B、Their devices are completely intelligent and the fixed question banks they provide have no errors at all. C、They help rural students do more experiments than before. D、Their study monitors can apply AI to offer students personalized study plans.(3)、How much will you spend studying in AI self-study rooms for 2 hours onFriday?
A、160 yuan B、240 yuan C、320 yuan D、400 yuan(4)、What is Professor Huang's attitude toward AI learning?A、Negative B、Positive C、Unclear D、Not mentioned(5)、What is the best title of this passage?A、The Rise of AI Study Rooms B、High Costs of AI Study Rooms C、AI Learning: Education in Rural Areas D、AI Self-Study Rooms' Growing Attention and Mixed Opinions -

Another new material is spider silk. Scientists have found a way to produce spider silk artificially. This material is stronger than steel but much lighter. It can be used to make medical equipment and protective clothing.
These new materials could change the way we live in the future. However, they also raise questions about their environmental impact. For example, how will the production of these materials affect the planet?

Paper is an important material in our daily lives. It is used for writing, printing, and packaging. Paper is made from wood, which is first turned into pulp. The pulp is then mixed with water and chemicals to create a soft mixture. This mixture is spread out and dried to form paper.
The process of making paper has a long history. It was first invented in China around 2,000 years ago. Before paper, people used materials like bamboo and silk to write on. The invention of paper made it easier and cheaper to record information.
Today, paper is produced in large factories. However, the production of paper can have a negative impact on the environment. Cutting down trees for paper can lead to deforestation. To reduce this impact, many companies now use recycled paper.
