I'm Australian. Most, if not all, high schools in my country have a school uniform. We were not allowed to choose our own clothes except on free dress days. Food is not typically provided as part of schooling in Australia. We mostly either brought a packed lunch or bought food at the school dining hall. And there was no lunchroom, although there were plenty of benches outside. I don't remember there being clear divides between different groups of friends. Of course, there were groups of friends who enjoyed getting together with similar interests.

In Germany, the first school class normally starts around 7:40 am. A period lasts 45 minutes, followed by a five-minute break. Most schools will have their "big break（15-20 minutes）" after the second period. Unless you have afternoon school, the school day usually ends after the sixth period, around 1 pm. School uniforms aren't really a thing, and for the most part, dress codes are not either. Obviously, you're supposed to dress suitably.

In the high school I attended in Finland, you are allowed to pick 25-30% of your curriculum（课程）based on what you're interested in, but the rest are required courses（math, history, at least one foreign language, etc.）, and it takes around three years to finish. During the last year of high school, you take nationally standardised tests in a few subjects. Those grades are considered when you' re applying to a university.

I'm from Serbia（塞尔维亚）. Here, high school classes are fixed and you don't get to choose them for yourself. But you can choose to go to whichever school you want, no matter where you live. The bad side is that extracurricular（课外的）activities are limited. If you want to take part in drama, music or sports, you have to join your local clubs outside school and pay a monthly fee.

Some of our1 are particularly funny, especially from the early years when our children were still2. My mind often wanders back to the time we3 camping beside the scenic Chalk Creek (小溪). The soft water sounds were calming, but they also made me worry that our curious 15-month-old son might4 into the creek. In a moment of worry that he might walk off or get lost, I5 a rope around him to keep him close to our campsite. That plan, however,6 only ten minutes. He was clearly7, and his loud, pitiful cries echoed through the campground, drawing sympathetic (同情的) glances from fellow campers.8 my wrong doing, I decided to let him roam freely,9 him instead. To my relief, it10 — he didn't end up in the creek. My three-year-old girl, however, wasn't as cautious and ended up splashing (戏水) around in the water, much to everyone's amusement.

Another adventure took place at Vallecito Lake. The sky was a brilliant blue as we11 in our rented boat, excited for a peaceful morning. But the weather in the mountains can change very fast. Dark clouds12, and soon the wind began to blow strongly. Thunder made loud13, and my husband quickly tried to start the motor. Nothing happened. He tried again, but still no luck. We were14 in the middle of the lake, the boat drifting (偏航) with the wind. As we sat there feeling helpless, a kind fisherman15 us in his boat. He threw us a rope and, with a friendly smile,16 us to safety. We were incredibly grateful.

Now, every year when my husband drives our camper out of the garage, we're filled with a(n)17 of excitement, wondering what fun our next camping18 will bring. And we're always thankful for the19 of strangers, like that fisherman who saved us when our boat's motor failed. These experiences, both the humorous and the challenging, have truly20 our family's love for adventure, making each camping trip a cherished memory.

One morning, Mr. Reed introduced Kenji to his fifth-grade class. The boy's bright blue hair stood straight up, making him look both unique and nervous. He kept his eyes low, fingers tightly holding the shirt. Some kids whispered and others stared. "Take the seat beside, Leo," Mr. Reed said gently, pointing to a boy in the back who was busy drawing. Leo looked up, and a playful smile formed as he noticed Kenji's hair.

At lunch, Leo couldn't resist. He jumped up and stood near Kenji's desk. "Listen, everyone!" he called out loudly. "Meet our new superhero—Blue Lightning!" He pointed right at Kenji's hair. "Can you light up the room with that?" The class burst into laughter. Kenji's face turned red. He felt everyone's eyes on him, and his heart beat fast. Without a word, he rushed out to Mr. Reed's office, tears building in his eyes.

Mr. Reed offered Kenji some warm milk. "Your hair is special," he said in a kind voice. "Being different is a good thing." Later, Mr. Reed called Leo and talked with him. "Jokes should not hurt others," he said seriously. "Laughing at someone can leave a deep hurt." Leo nodded, but he still felt a little defensive. He was just trying to be funny.

That afternoon, Leo saw Kenji walking home alone, head down. Leo remembered the sad look on Kenji's face when everyone laughed. For the first time, he realized his joke wasn't fun for everyone. Leo loved drawing and making people smile, but he never meant to make someone feel so small. All weekend, he thought about what he had done — and how he could make it right.

The Han-Wei Luoyang Ancient City Site Museum, (locate) in Luoyang in Central China's Henan Province, opened to the public for trial operations on June 5th, 2025. The museum was intended to show the ancient city as it (exist) from the Western Zhou Dynasty (1046 BC-771 BC) to the Tang Dynasty (618-907). The ancient city thrived (兴盛) as the capital during the Han-Wei period.

"Its layout shows the ‘central-axis (中心轴) planning' design that (absolute) influenced later Chinese capital design. site also reshaped the urban planning of ancient Chinese capital," said archaeologist He Jierao.

The museum has designed three themed exhibition halls to show over 1,300 relics (遗物). One hall takes zhong, means "central or middle" in Chinese, as its theme. The relics in this section reveal how the ancient city was established, while the second section, he, meaning "integration" in Chinese, shows the exchange between northern people the Han people during periods such as the Wei (220-265) and Jin (265-420) (dynasty). The third exhibition space takes Luoyang itself as a focus, (show) how China's silk exchanges with the West thrived during ancient times.

"In the future, we aim (work) together with overseas museums to promote the ancient Central Plains civilization," said Guo Rong, director of the museum's Research and Education Department, adding that the (establish) of the museum deepens China's national-level project to find the origins of Chinese civilization.

Besides returning hugs, Tim's5 also copies breathing through its chest (胸膛), which gently rises and falls. "The robot even attempts to6 its breathing rate to the hugger's and mirror how fast the hugger's breathing," Tim says. "That part proved7. After all, a bedroom fan might be enough to throw off the gas levels. It's not always going to be mirroring you8," he adds.

●Plan ahead.. Mark the dates of midterms, finals and other tests. Note the due dates of term papers, essays and other projects as they are assigned. List any other time commitments you have. When your calendar starts to fill, learn to say no to other activities until things calm down.

●Stay ahead. Try not to fall behind. If you feel depressed, let your teachers and parents know.. Almost everyone struggles with a particular subject or class. When you do, ask your teacher for extra help after class. Taking a few minutes to address the problem right away can save time later, and if your teacher knows that you're struggling with something, they're likely to be more understanding of the situation.

●. Paying attention in class can pay off in the long run. Sure, it's often easier said than done, but actively listening during lectures can make recalling information easier when it comes time to study and remember things.

●Take notes. If you take notes and review them before class begins, you can ask a teacher to go over anything you don't understand. It can also be helpful to go over notes with a friend after class—as long as you're confident your friend really understands the material!.

A. Listen up

B. Get enough sleep to stay energetic

C. Join clubs to make new friends quickly

F. So many choices and things compete for your time

G. Learning good note-taking skills in high school also gives you an advantage in college

This isn't magic. It's the mind's secret language. It's the silent, invisible force beneath every human interaction, shaping our relationships, influencing our judgments, and connecting us in ways that words never could.

Long before you learned to talk, you were already a master of silent communication. Babies just days old can detect eye contact. They respond to tone, rhythm and facial expressions. They cry to signal need and smile to build bonds (联系). No vocabulary is needed.

This is the foundation of what neuroscientists call social cognition—the brain's ability to understand and respond to others. Our brains are built for connection. We don't just observe others: we simulate (模仿) their actions inside ourselves. When you see someone smile, your brain activates the same regions that fire when you yourself smile. This is the basis of mirror neurons, a system discovered in the 1990s that helps explain how we "feel" what others feel.

From babyhood, we start building a theory of mind. This means understanding that others have their own separate thoughts, feelings and intentions. We use this knowledge constantly, mostly without speaking. You don't need someone to say, "I'm depressed." You recognize it in how they shut a door firmly or avoid meeting your eyes.

This skill to sense others—to read their mental state from their face, posture, gestures, voice tone and even silences—is the essential foundation of human connection. It explains our talent for storytelling, teamwork, and caring. It's also why misunderstandings can happen so easily.

"It's a great way to give yourself a social improvement and increase your well-being," says Elaine Paravati, the study's author, who conducted the research while completing her research at the University at Buffalo.

The study's view, however, differs from a lot of previous researches on the social aspects of music, which often focus on how music brings people together, as listeners and performers. Paravati instead looked at music enjoyed in isolation (孤立).

Humans have a basic need to belong, which strongly motivates our behavior. Failing to connect with others can lead to depression, anxiety and low self-esteem (自尊). There are traditional ways to fill this need, like spending time with family and friends, but there are non-traditional ways as well, like activities that might not be immediately recognized as social.

These are known as social surrogates (替代), which can help with loneliness, isolation and social threats, like rejection, just as well as time spent with others. Examples include forming one-sided bonds with celebrities, engaging in virtual social worlds, and surrounding oneself with reminders of loved ones. "Listening to music alone operates as a social surrogate along all three of those pathways," says Paravati.

"We found that listening to one's favorite music helped individuals feel less lonely," says Paravati. "But someone's favorite music was more effective at this than just listening to music in general. In other words, there is something special about putting on your favorite song and jamming out."

Paravati says future research might explore the impact of music styles or the individual differences among the three surrogate pathways and which might be more important than the other two.

Chinese roses bloom for over 200 days yearly. Each spring, they transform Beijing's Third, Fourth, and Fifth Ring Roads into green belts. According to Zhao Shiwei, Chief Engineer of Beijing Institute of Landscape Architecture, roadside planting began in 2003 to improve street landscaping.

This flower became Beijing's official symbol in 1987. Three years later, massive plantings prepared the city for the 1990 Asian Games. However, challenges appeared: short-stemmed varieties suffered from wind and car pollution because they were planted so close to the ground.

"After hundreds of experiments, climbing roses proved best for ring roads," Zhao explained. These now grow well on central dividers across the city. Chen Junqi of Beijing Gardening Bureau notes, "They bloom 3-4 times annually from Spring Festival to October, each phase lasting 10 days. In 2023 alone, 50 million plants covered 2,500＋ meters of streets and parks."

Creating new varieties remains difficult. Beijing Institute's decade-long effort developed "Beijing Jinxi" — a cold/heat resistant champion at the International Horticultural Exhibition. Senior researcher Feng Hui emphasizes, "This variety uniquely lives through Beijing's extreme temperatures."
