Imagine a group of people are talking about something happily. But there is one man who cannot follow them, because he has a hearing problem. How can we help such a person?

Now a new and exciting invention called AR glasses has come out. It allows deaf people to hear conversations in real time. Deaf people are also able to join in everyday conversations by wearing AR glasses.

The AR glasses were developed by Dan Scarfe after he spent Christmas dinner with his family. His 97-year-old grandfather had a hearing problem. Scarfe saw him sitting alone in silence while the rest of the family were talking excitedly. And the old man always watched TV shows with subtitles (字幕). That situation was kept in Scarfe's mind. Suddenly he realized that maybe the AR glasses could help.

So Scarfe started to work with Nreal, a company good at making AR glasses. Six months later, a new pair of AR glasses came out. The glasses have a microphone that receives the audio (音频) from the environment and sends it to a connected smartphone. The phone then creates subtitles from that audio and these subtitles then appear on the screen of the user's glasses.

The company first tested the glasses in the UK. There are over 13 million adults with hearing loss. When the product works, it will change the lives of 430 million people.

This is a great change for the deaf. Mark Atkinson, a user of the AR glasses, says, "As a deaf person myself, I am amazed by this new technology. Real-time subtitles made me become part of the conversation. That has never happened before."

A disabled man who makes clay pieces on the streets of Chengdu has become popular across the country.

The man, called Mi, lost his hands years ago: he was hurt in an accident and had to cut his hands off. Since then, he has had to live with only his arms. However, he didn't give in to difficulties. He learned to eat and get dressed by himself after resting for a year. Since he got married, he has had to take care of three children with his wife. The duty of supporting the family fell on them. He thought he must find a new way to make a living by himself.

One day, Mi saw an artist making clay pieces on the street. He was interested and decided to learn it. The artist didn't accept his request at first. But Mi kept on asking many times. The artist was touched by his request and finally decided to teach him.

It was a big challenge for Mi to learn the skills. At the beginning, he could only make simple clay pieces like flowers for the whole afternoon. And his arms were sore after lots of practice. However, he never thought about giving up. Finally, he learned to make clay pieces in a way that was suitable for himself. He changed the used material to make figures, and he always made cartoon figures which were cuter and easier to make.

Now, after a lot of practice, the completion of one clay figure takes him just seven minutes, and he makes about thirty clay pieces a day. As news of his skill spread, a crowd would often remain to watch him whenever he sat down to work. Today, Mi not only makes a living by selling his clay products as he used to wish, but also takes pride in what he does. Mi is full of hope for a better future, as he knows his hard work will pay off.

When you want to buy a pair of running shoes, will you choose Nike or Li-Ning? It's a choice between foreign and local brands.

In the past, Chinese buyers used to prefer (更喜欢) foreign brands, thinking that products made by American or European companies are of higher quality than Chinese ones. Now more people turn to local brands. A recent survey explained the reasons behind it. Compared with the foreign brands, the local ones are at lower prices and of good quality.

Some Chinese brands have risen in recent years. A study showed that 71% of foreign buyers said Chinese brands are important to them. Chinese brands like Huawei, Xiaomi, DJI, Feiyue and Shein have all become more popular abroad. For example, Huawei is the world's second biggest mobile phone company, Times reported. Shein, a "fast fashion" brand, saw its sales reach more than 10 billion dollars last year, a 100 percent increase over the previous (以前的) year, according to Global Times. European buyers say the brand is inexpensive, fashionable and of high quality.

However, it soon faced strong public criticism (批评) and Cai may face some form of of this artwork, created with sports brand Arc'teryx (始祖鸟) in Gyangze county, Xizang, has raised attention about the risks of making art in natural areas.

Although the exact harm to the environment is still, both the artist and the brand admitted (承认) that environmental risks couldn't, the brand said it would let groups check the environment, and Cai promised to fix it if there was harm. Experts said that fireworks can cause long-lasting influence, especially in cold and delicate (脆弱的) places like the Himalayas.

This event made people think about the relationship between art and nature. Artists shouldn't hurt nature for their own work. They need to get used to with the relationship with nature while creating art. Respecting (尊重) nature doesn't stop artists from making something beautiful. Actually, the or new technology, like digital fireworks, can help.

The film takes place during World War II. It tells the true story of Japan's Unit 731. This army unit did cruel human experiments on people in Harbin. The movie shows Chinese people suffered and fought against the invaders.

People think the movie will have a great screening rate of 99.7% on its first day. Millions of people have said they are interested in watching it. There are two main reasons for its popularity: First, it helps us remember a painful part of history—we must not forget it. Second, 2025 is the 80th anniversary of the victory of the World Anti-Fascist War (世界反法西斯战争). This makes people think more about history.

This movie is an important educational tool. It teaches us to value peace. But because there are some intense (激烈的) and disturbing scenes, the film is recommended for people over 18 years old. Younger people should watch it with their parents' help.

Remembering history does not mean keeping hatred (仇恨). It means we value peace and life even more. This film is not just a movie; it is a history lesson for everyone.
