Wetlands are very important. Although they cover only 6% of the Earth's land, they are home to 40% of all plant and animal species. They also provide us with clean water, control floods, and help store carbon.

Among China's actions, mangrove (红树林) protection stands out. In the past five years, the country has planted over 8,800 hectares of mangroves and restored another 8,200 hectares. Thanks to this, China's mangrove area has increased by about 40% since the early 2000s, making it one of the few countries with a net gain. An expert said, "Restoring mangroves is one of the most cost-effective ways to fight climate change." To encourage global cooperation, China set up the International Mangrove Center in Shenzhen in December.

Another key step is dealing with an invasive (侵略性的) plant called Spartina alterniflora (互花米草). This plant harms coastal ecosystems by slowing water flow and killing native species, which leaves birds with less food. Since a special action plan started in 2022, about 90% of the affected areas have been treated, successfully stopping its spread.

Besides, China has 903 national wetland parks. These parks not only protect 2.4 million hectares of wetlands but have also created more than 50 billion yuan for local economies. About 90% of them are free for everyone to visit. These parks show how China is successfully protecting nature while bringing benefits to people. Looking ahead, China will continue to carry out its Wetland Protection Law and develop new models like "wetland culture-tourism".

Spring refers not only to the season but also the idea of rebirth, and that's why most countries have special traditions to celebrate the arrival of this beautiful season.

Chinese people often eat spring pancakes on the day called Beginning of Spring which is on February 4th this year. This tradition means bite-the-spring in Chinese. In the past, people thought eating spring pancakes on this day would lead to a good harvest (丰收) year. Today, it is common in many restaurants.

In Japan, families and friends celebrate spring by enjoying the beauty of cherry blossoms (樱花) together. It is a traditional custom known as "hanami", meaning "watching flowers". Hanami usually lasts from late March to early May. People hold parties or picnics under the cherry trees. Food, drink and even singing and dancing are all parts of "hanami".

In the US, a groundhog (土拨鼠) helping to tell the coming of spring has become a tradition. There's even a special day, Groundhog Day, on every February 2nd. The legend says that if a groundhog sees his shadow (影子) when he comes out of his cave, there will be six more weeks of winter. If there's no shadow, spring is on the way! Hooray!

One day, when Emma is surfing the Internet (上网), she knows about the big problem of plastic waste. It is so bad for our environment. So she decides to do something.

Emma shares her idea with other club members. She says , "Let's have a plastic waste collection (收集) activity this year!" All the members think it is a great idea. To let everyone know about this activity, they start to make colorful posters and put them up around the school.

The big day of the activity comes. Lots of students and their family come to the school with bags full of plastic waste. Emma and other club members are so busy collecting the waste but they are very happy.

At the end of the day, some students talk about how they understand the importance of recycling. Emma is very happy about that. A small thing can help to make a greener world.

Einstein also campaigned for peace. He people the great dangers of nuclear weapons, fearing they could destroy in the world.

His theories, theory of relativity and quantum theory, were revolutionary and big people's understanding of science.

After he found that people's feeling of time and space their movement, he challenged the wrong old ideas.

From an early age, Einstein received a good and was found physics and mathematics.

Albert Einstein was a great scientist. He any other scientist in history.

The IoT is not just for homes. Imagine a smart v, like a car, that can talk to other cars and traffic signals to avoid accidents. Farmers can even use the IoT to check the health of their plants. P in the future, almost everything will be connected to the IoT.

As technology develops, city life is getting much smarter. Let's take a look at some cool examples

Smart Schools

In China, many schools now use AI and smart tools. For example, students can wear VR glasses to learn about rockets and "see" how they are launched. For instance, in smart dining halls, students just need to stand in front of a machine. The system can recognize their faces to complete the meal ordering process.

Smart Homes

When you're away from home, you can use a phone app to control many things. You can turn on the air conditioner before you get home. The app can also show you what's happening inside your house. It can even tell the smart kitchen to start cooking, so a warm meal is ready when you arrive.

Smart Transportation

Useful apps from tech companies have also changed how we travel. The app then shows you the ride information, such as the name of the driver and the time of arrival. Isn't that cool?

As technology keeps improving, we can't wait to see what other amazing things will come next.

A. No more waiting in the rain for a bus

B. These smart ideas are greatly improving our daily life.

C. Smart technology is used in many other areas of school life too.

D. For example, you can simply enter your start and end points to call a ride.

E. It can automatically water your plants, and a robot vacuum keeps the floor clean.

Around the world. 45 percent of people who needed care in 2024 did not get it because it was too costly or there weren't enough doctors. Daniel Lowd, a professor at the University of Oregon, believes AI could help fill this gap. "If people can find some support and ideas by talking to ChatGPT or chatbot, then I think that's wonderful," Lowd told Newsweek. Li Yong, a doctor at the Jiangsu Province Hospital, agreed with Lowd, saying that AI meets people's basic needs for emotional support to a point.

However, AI has its disadvantages. Human therapists understand feelings deeply through face-to-face talks and create treatment plans—something robots can't fully copy. Dr. LiuYang, a psychologist (心理学家), notes "An AI might recognize keywords like ‘divorce', but it cannot find out small changes in tone or body language". This point becomes important when dealing with a series of situations, where misunderstandings could be dangerous.

Another problem is safety. AI cannot match the level of responsibility that human therapists have. Experts believe the key to safe AI therapy is strict government control. For example, Wysa, an AI mental health app, follows strict medical standards in the UK.

Data privacy appears as another large concern (担忧). Users usually share personal details on AI platforms, yet few companies clearly state how this information is stored or used.

As AI becomes part of daily life, finding a balance between its benefits and risks is important. While AI offers quick help, human connection remains irreplaceable for serious emotional needs.

Every day, Samuel looked at the mountain. It stood high and strong, making him want to be strong too.

One day, Samuel decided to climb the mountain. The villagers laughed at him. "You can't do it" they said. However, Samuel didn't let their mockery (嘲笑) stop him. With strong determination, he began his journey up the mountain.

The path was tough, with steep slopes (山坡), slippery rocks, and unpredictable weather making the journey rather dangerous. Samuel fell lots of times. His leg hurt and he felt very tired, but he didn't give up.

On the way, Samuel met other travelers. They helped each other. Soon, they became friends, cheering each other up and sharing stories of their hard times and successes. Their friendship made them all stronger.

As Samuel climbed higher, the air got thinner, and the challenges grew harder. Samuel felt tired and scared. "Maybe I should stop," he thought. But then, he remembered his dream. "I must try" he told himself. With that thought, he moved on, bit by bit.

Finally, after days of effort, Samuel reached the top. The view was amazing. He saw green forests and rivers below. The world looked quite different in his eyes, big and beautiful.

It was then that Samuel realized the true victory wasn't just about reaching the top of the mountain. It was a journey. The changes he had experienced mattered most.

News of Samuel's success spread quickly, and the villagers were shocked. "You really did it" they said. Samuel's journey taught everyone that with determination and hard work, even the highest mountains can be conquered (征服).

In the last passage we've already talked about some dangerous plants, but we don't want to give anyone the wrong idea. The truth is that some plants can hurt you, but most are completely harmless. In fact, there are plenty of plants that are actually very useful to humans.

That is why plants are so popular in Chinese medicine. Chinese medicine has been using plants for at least 4,800 years. One of the most popular plants in Chinese medicine is ginseng (人参). Doctors of Chinese medicine believe that ginseng can help your lungs (肺), clean your blood and do many other things. Ginseng also provides energy for people. In fact, many modern energy drinks that you see in stores have ginseng.

In some parts of the U.S., there is a plant called lady fern (蹄盖蕨). This is the plant you need if you've been stung by a bee, or if you've got a small burn or a cut. Lady ferns are great for making your skin feel better. All you have to do is roll one of its leaves and make it into pieces in your hands. The juice inside the leaf will help your skin feel better.

If you're hiking in Europe, look for a flower called tansy (艾菊). This yellow flower is a natural insects' enemy. You just rub it on your skin, and insects will leave you alone.

Sage (鼠尾草) is one of the most useful plants in the world. Because it has so many uses, it's also quite valuable. Human beings have been using sage for a very long time. In Europe before fridges appeared, people used sage to keep food. Over the years, people have used sage to fight all kinds of health problems. Sage has been used to treat colds, stop muscle problems and reduce swelling. In fact, sage comes from the Latin word "salvere", which means "to be saved".

Many people believe Henry Ford 1 the automobile (汽车). But Henry Ford did not start to build his car until 1896, eleven years after two Germans made the world's first automobile.

At that time, almost every carmaker 2 his own cars. It was the best way of advertising (广告). After building his own car, Henry Ford took part in his first and most 3 race. It was in 1901. Before the race, most people believed that Alexander Winton would win because he had enough 4 as a driver. At first, Winton's car took an early lead. However, it lost 5 and slowed down halfway through the race. Ford then caught up and 6 won the race. His name 7 in newspapers nationwide and he became well-known all over the country.

Later, Henry Ford set up a new car company. He said, "I will build a car large enough for the family, but also small and easy enough for a driver to 8 and care for. It will be built of the best materials, by the best workers, and with the simplest plans that modern engineering can produce. It will be so low in 9 that most people can own one."

Finally, he did it. The model T was a car of that kind. It only cost $850. It was a 10 machine that drivers could trust. A lot of people loved and bought the Model T. They wrote stories and songs about it. Thousands of Model Ts were built in the first few years.
