At school, I sometimes got in4 for "daydreaming" because I was watching birds outside the classroom window. I would often get distracted (分心的) by the birds flying by, making it5 to listen to the teacher carefully. I also kept notes about the birds I saw. I made some mistakes as I was still learning about the different species. However, each mistake was an important6, and I always wanted to be better.

One summer, my family visited the Scottish Highlands, and I was excited to see new birds. I studied a bird book with maps to prepare,7 of seeing rare birds like the Osprey. I finally saw one through my binoculars, and a warden (看门人) let me use a special one for a8. It was amazing and felt like a dream come true. Later, in mid-Wales, we searched for a Red Kite, a rare bird at the time. After days of trying, we9 saw one flying over a hill. That unforgettable moment stays with me all my life.

Looking back, birdwatching is much easier today. There's more information, and young birdwatchers can talk with each other easily. I hope more young people can10 the joy of birdwatching, just like I did. Hopefully, these days, it is easier to meet other young birdwatchers. I do hope so.

The Looking China Youth Film Project was set up to show Chinese culture to the world through the lens (镜头) of young foreign filmmakers and to improve communication between young people in China and those in other countries. Usama Kalim and Joseph Dwyer are among them.

Usama Kalim is a 27-year-old university student who grew up in Pakistan. While in China, he took part in the project and directed a short documentary (纪录片) about a young Chinese man named Lang Xiaoyong.

" Lang was one of the top students in the class and he got a well-paid job in the city. He could live in big cities, but he chose to come back and do something for his hometown in the countryside," says Kalim! " Lang's life experience is a good example of the great changes in the country," says Kalim.

Joseph Dwyer is an American director. Six years ago, Dwyer visited North China and made a documentary called Through Tianjin. Last year, he was invited to China again and made a short video of the Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway. "Through the project, we can work together to have a better understanding of China," says Dwyer.

Over the past 10 years, a total of 610 young foreigners have visited China through the project, producing 609 short documentaries. We hope more young foreigners will take part in it in the future.

A. China has developed well in recent years.

B. I am so touched (感动的) by Lang's story.

C. The villagers were very friendly to him.

D. Many young foreigners showed great interest in the project and took part in it.

E. Completed in 1909, it is known as China's first independently built railway.

F. He has taken part in the project twice to record the development of transportation (交通) in China.

As a child, Cruz Avila used to walk through the forests every day. She always picked wood and medicinal plants. She also learned to find birds and identify different trees near her home. Avila believed that listening to a waterfall is good medicine for the tired body.

In recent years, residents (居民) of the forest communities suffered from tourism that's not environmentally friendly. Some visitors have damaged forests and lakes there. One of the affected lakes is EI Sumidero, which is home to crayfish and other animals.

For this reason, in 2021, the local people created an organization to deal with these damaging activities in the forests. They designed a tourism plan for the protection of their forests. Avila said her community, San Miguel Tenextepec, has developed a sustainable tourism plan based on hiking and workshops. They also planned to have a viewing platform ready by 2023. As for Avila, she planned to start developing her hiking project. "I'm going to take visitors to a place called EI Caballero. In addition, I'll offer them a workshop to make wine and bread." she said.

"To us, forests are our home. We want to take care of them as we take care of our home. We invited hikers and tourists to come to see our home, to get to know and enjoy this place with respect and care," Avila told a reporter.

Mobile payment wasn't accepted in most shops. I had to take out my wallet and went back to using notes. I couldn't order takeout at any time I like because the delivery service would take too much time. If I wanted to try something delicious, I would have to go to the restaurant in person.

Of course, we can pay electronically in the UK. People have their bank cards. But most people still use cash. They worry that using mobile payment will lead to their money being stolen by online thieves. They don't put too much trust in mobile payment systems. This is understandable. According to a 2022 report, more than £4 billion was stolen online in the UK and online shopping accounted (占) about one third of the thefts.

But still, it seems that mobile or at least digital (数字的) payment will lead the way in the future in the UK, just as it is here now in China. According to the gov.uk website, the Bank of England is now looking at using a digital pound. But the real question is: Will the British public be willing to trust it?

My father was the first mate (大副) on the large sailing ship known as the Salty Dog. He was the trusted friend of the captain—in charge of keeping the sailors in line and keeping the ship in good shape and on course. My mother was the lookout who climbed high up to the crow's nest (桅杆瞭望台) with her spyglass to look out for other ships and signs of land. When I was a baby, she always held me as she climbed up to the top part of the ship and showed me the world.

When I wasn't in the crow's nest, I was in the ship's galley with the cook, learning how to make food for the sailors who had no table manners and never remembered to say "please" or "thank you". Food had to be good, or else they'd throw their cups at your head. I learned to stay out of range (范围) after the food was served.

As pirates, the sailors attacked ships and grabbed valuable things. Because I was still a child, I wasn't allowed to join in that. When I was five, we sailed into the Montego Bay. The local police caught all the sailors including my parents as soon as they landed. I was left alone on the Salty Dog ship.

Fifteen years later, when my parents left the prison, they got on the ship where I had learned to sail in their absence. We set out once again on the sea. But this time, I was the one wearing the captain's hat. And we set out not as pirates. We set out to help those who met troubles on the sea.

For Ian Sierra, a 10th grader in the group, this was his first time travelling abroad, and he was2 at first. "I felt if I messed up a bit, I would leave a bad impression," he said.

But soon, Sierra became relaxed. In Beijing, he was3 enough to taste douzhi, a kind of traditional drink in Beijing. It is a4 even for the locals, but Sierra finished three bowls in a row.

Besides Chinese food, Sierra also likes Chinese people. "My homestay partner, his parents and everyone else were very nice. They5 to me, sharing things about China with me and kept asking me about my life and culture," Sierra said. "By communicating with them, I picked up many6 often used in daily conversations."

With social media developing quickly, teenagers can get information about other countries online7. However, some things can only be grasped (领悟) in person when you experience them yourself. "If I hadn't8 this trip, I wouldn't have learnt so much about Chinese culture and the Chinese people," said Sierra.

For Sierra, the trip even influenced his9 choices. He said, "I used to dream of being a Maths teacher in the US. Now, I'm10 teaching English in Beijing or Shanghai in the future."
