According to Charlotte Markey, a professor of psychology, food is one of the rare subjects where, as parents, saying less is more. "There are so many things in parenting that are good to talk through, but I'm not convinced that food is one of them," she says. "It just creates some worries and insecurities in kids that aren't necessarily healthy."

Instead, she recommends applying a well-known concept among nutrition experts called the "Division of Responsibility," where parents provide a variety of mostly healthy foods to their kids at fixed times, and the kids themselves decide what and how much they want to consume — even if that means occasionally eating more cookies than carrots.

Allowing kids to eat what they want also exposes them to the natural consequences of their decisions. "When your child says, ‘My stomach hurts,' you can say, ‘Well you had a lot of sugary foods and you might feel better if you made some other choices,'" says Markey. "Let them feel like they have some control over it."

I've been trying out these strategies and I've found that when I'm less restrictive, they do make better decisions. "Feeding is a long game," says Markey. "The food you have available makes a huge difference. Even if they don't eat it, they' re seeing it. And then all of a sudden it clicks."

It was the day of the school's art exhibition. Students from various classes had been preparing their artworks for weeks. The exhibition hall was filled with many paintings, sculptures, and handicrafts, each one carefully crafted and placed to display the students' best efforts. The walls seemed to come alive with colors and shapes, as the morning sunlight streamed through the high windows, casting a warm light over the displays.

Miss Smith, the art teacher, was walking around, admiring the students' wonderful work. Suddenly, she noticed that Jack, one of her most talented students, was standing alone in front of his painting, looking rather depressed. His painting, which was usually filled with lively colors and unique perspectives(视角), seemed dull and unfinished today. The edges were rough, and the colors seemed to mix together without the usual harmony.

Miss Smith went over and gently asked Jack what the matter was. Jack hesitated, and then admitted that he had been going through a tough time lately. His parents were pressuring him to focus more on academics and were considering making him quit art classes. This had been weighing heavily on his mind, and he had lost his inspiration. He had spent many sleepless nights wondering how to balance his love for art with his parents' expectations.

Miss Smith understood the situation all too well. She knew Jack had a real gift for art and didn't want to see him give up so easily. She told Jack that she would talk to his parents and try to make them understand his passion. She told stories of famous artists who had faced similar challenges but had gone on pursuing their dreams. She also showed Jack some sketches(素描)she had made when she was young and had faced doubts about her own artistic path. Jack's eyes widened slightly as he saw the familiar struggles in his teacher's past works.

Greenery Club

In East China's Anhui province, a 2-meter-wide alley separates a pair of gray walls. At first glance it may seem insignificant., to those who know its history, Liuchi Alley in Tongcheng symbolizes much more than its initial appearance would suggest.

In the Qing Dynasty, there were two families both with (influence)members within the court of Emperor Kangxi. To the south was the Zhang family and to the north was the Wu family. But the two families had a fierce quarrel (result)from the disagreement over the boundary between their houses. Unable to resolve it locally, the Zhangs asked their family member Zhang Ying, a trusted top official in the emperor's court, help. Zhang called for them to step back 1 meter from the boundary instead of (back)them, which moved the two families so much that both did exactly that.

One day, when her baby was about three months old, her whole family went out to a restaurant with baby necessities. When they stepped out of the car, the baby needed to2 again. Since they were all exhausted, they piled into the restaurant3.

Such a contribution would add to the tens of millions of tons of electronic products the globe abandons annually. Cell phones, computers and other digital products often contain mercury (汞), lead or other poisons. When improperly disposed of, they can pollute air, water and soil. In 2022, about 78% of the world's e-waste end up in landfills or at unofficial recycling sites, where laborers risk their health to clean up rare metals.

The AI boom (热潮) rapidly consumes data storage devices and high-performance components, which are usually replaced when new versions are available. To calculate the e-waste contribution, researchers examined hardware use, lifespan, and the industry's growth rate. Their prediction is an estimate that could change based on various factors.

This study's biggest value comes from its attention to AI's broad environmental impacts, says Shaolei Ren, a researcher at the University of California, Riverside. "We might want AI companies to slow down a bit," he says.

Few countries mandate (强制) the proper disposal of e-waste, and those that do often fail to carry out their existing laws on it. Twenty-five U. S. states have e-waste management policies, but there is no federal law that requires electronics recycling.

Thankfully, some companies claim to be taking independent action. Microsoft and Google have committed to reaching net zero waste and net zero emissions respectively by 2030. They have many options to limit e-waste. It's possible to squeeze more life out of servers, for instance, through regular maintenance and updates or by shifting worn-out devices to less-intensive applications. These strategies are vital to reduce e-waste and benefit society, the study authors estimate.

For this new translation, Palma aimed to stick to Dante's terza rima rhyme pattern. In the original, the first and third lines rhyme, and the second line sets up the rhyme for the next group. Here's how Palma's version of Canto 1 of Purgatorio starts: "Right now, my small boat of wisdom raises its sails, ready to sail through the dangerous waters and leave this rough sea behind."

Approaching the translation this way is challenging as one can't focus on just three lines at a time. Many English translations use free poetry or a looser rhyme, which Palma admits can be good. But he believes not reproducing the rhymes means losing much of the poem's sound and music. He also thinks it fails to show readers what Dante did.

Palma isn't the first to attempt this. So, what's the value in another translation of The Divine Comedy? Joseph Luzzi, a literature professor, said translation is a form of autobiography, which has no fixed rules.

Luzzi recently published his translation of Dante's Vita Nuova, a less-known work. It portrays a young Dante's experience. In these works, themes like love, the exploration of human nature, and the pursuit of self-improvement arc noticeable. Translating his work keeps it alive, and its relevance is clear.

We can learn from these translations and discussions that literature has the power to connect different times and cultures. It encourages us to think deeply, explore different ways of expression, and continuously improve our understanding and appreciation of the world.

The local tea-related culture is deeply rooted. The Blang people believe that everything has a soul and should leave nature undisturbed, preserving sustainable tea-farming practices. They have been avoiding the use of weed killers. Jingmai's closely managed lands may seem wild compared to other tea plantations worldwide. A vibrant vegetation (植被) carpets the forest floor, creating a rich habitat for animals and helping the soil keep essential moisture. The areas are separated to prevent the spread of diseases and pests.

In the early 2000s, the Chinese government's investment in rural infrastructure, like new roads and electricity, brought new opportunities to Jingmai Mountain. However, as the area developed, some problems emerged, such as deforestation by some villagers. In response, local leaders took action quickly. They called for the protection of the forests and traditional tea-growing methods.

Around 2010, the local community and the government united to apply for World Heritage status. Eventually, UNESCO formally recognized Jingmai Mountain as a World Heritage site, an honor reserved for places that provideidiosyncratic cultural value. It is the only site related to tea cultivation. To protect this precious area, the government built a stone-paved road to prevent destruction of the tea' s aroma (香气).

Today, tea is the backbone of the region's economy, contributing 90% of the local income. The younger generation promotes Jingmai tea through modern means like livestreaming. The conservation and development of Jingmai Mountain's tea heritage not only safeguard its unique natural and cultural features but also ensure its long-term prosperity.
