One afternoon after school, when everyone else had6, Ms. Reed walked over to ask Liam to walk around with her. Liam looked up, thought for a while, and finally7. They walked slowly side by side in 8, with no urgent questions or unnecessary pressure from Ms. Reed.

As weeks passed, Liam gradually9 his guard. Sometimes he would murmur (低声说) a few words about his hobbies, and Ms. Reed always listened without10 him. Though sometimes Liam chose not to go, Ms. Reed didn't get11, just trying again the next day. Months later, Liam12 his long-lost hobby of drawing, became more active in class, and even made a few friends.

One day, Liam13 Ms. Reed with a drawing of two figures walking under a sunlit tree. "It's us," Liam said softly. He realized that Ms. Reed's14 was not just walking, but a light guiding him out of loneliness. For Ms. Reed, Liam's smile and growth were the greatest15 — proving that patience and care could melt the coldest silence and help a lost heart find its way back.

This emotional suppression (压抑) stems not from the emotions themselves, but from the moral meanings attached to them. Many families are influenced by traditional values like respect for elders and family harmony. As a result, people often soften their feelings, justify their parents' behavior, and remind themselves that their parents "did their best." Many adults hold conflicting emotions — gratitude and resentment, love and disappointment — yet feel forced to deny these complexities.

Western psychology often praises emotional independence and clear personal boundaries as healthy. However, in many other cultures, personal identity is deeply rooted in family relationships. Parental emotions strongly influence their children even in adulthood, and such emotional closeness is regarded as a normal expression of care and responsibility rather than unhealthy dependence.

As people mature, they begin to see parents as imperfect individuals shaped by their own struggles and limitations. This shift can be relieving but also uncomfortable, as acknowledging parental weaknesses may feel unacceptable in traditional contexts.

In working through these feelings, one grows more understanding — of oneself and of one's parents. Grieving (为……而悲伤) unmet needs does not destroy love but clarifies it. Instead, it means we can hold love, gratitude and hurt in the same relationship and make our family emotional story more complete.

A. They seldom show their real emotions to others.

B. Emotional maturity lies not in separating from family.

C. Cultural differences in family boundaries further complicate this issue.

D. It is strongly advised that people hide their negative feelings towards parents.

E. Most people find it easy to balance loyalty and honesty in family relationships.

F. This is not indifference but an attempt to protect the precious parent-child bond.

G. However, accepting this helps let go of unrealistic expectations and gain inner freedom.

Chai Xiujuan, chief scientist of the machine vision and agricultural robot innovation team, said the research addresses key challenges in automated tomato harvesting in greenhouses, including limited camera views, fruit occlusion (遮挡) and complex fruiting patterns. "Efficient and low-damage harvesting was a major challenge in modern greenhouse tomato production, particularly in dense planting environments," Chai said. "Our study presents a digital twin-driven system for intelligent tomato harvesting."

Using a slidable depth camera mounted on the harvesting robot, the team reconstructed a high-fidelity 3D digital twin of the greenhouse that accurately captures the spatial distribution and growth states of tomatoes. Based on this virtual environment, the researchers developed a learning-based framework to develop better harvesting strategies, including robot positioning, fruit selection priority and adaptive operation modes.

Experimental results showed that the method significantly improved harvesting performance, reducing average picking time by nearly 35 percent to 7.4 seconds per fruit, while collision (碰撞) occurrences dropped by 45 percent.

"Traditionally, a depth camera is fixed on the robotic arm to capture the picking view and make harvesting decisions," Lang Yining, a team member, said. "However, such decisions are usually based only on the local field of view from the current camera position, which may contain just a few tomatoes. In our approach, a depth camera mounted on a sliding rail scans dynamically to reconstruct the overall structure of the greenhouse plants. This creates a digital twin of the entire tomato-growing environment and gives the picking decision algorithm (算法) a much broader scope."

Next, the team plans to further explore the use of digital twin technology to simulate (模拟) the growth and harvesting environments of more crop varieties, enabling low-cost and high-efficiency training and evaluation of harvesting decision algorithms.

Myra Cheng, a university professor and lead author of the study, was inspired after she learned that undergraduates were increasingly using AI to solve relationship issues. She worries people will lose the skills to deal with difficult social situations, as AI never tells users they are wrong or offers the "tough love" sometimes needed. While AI is overly agreeable on fact-based questions, few studies have explored how Large Language Models (LLMs) powering AI judge social dilemmas (困境).

Cheng's team evaluated 11 major LLMs, including ChatGPT and Gemini, using established interpersonal advice datasets. They also presented LLMs with harmful action statements and tested 2,400 participants who chatted with both overly agreeable and objective AI chatbots. They found AI supported users 49% more often than humans on average and praised problematic behaviors 47% of the time; participants judged overly agreeable AI chatbots as more trustworthy, enhancing their original views.

Researchers claimed this preference may leave developers unmotivated to fix AI's sycophancy, creating a harmful feedback circle, where engagement with AI models and their training could enhance such overly agreeable behavior. Additionally, participants could not distinguish overly agreeable AI chatbots from objective ones, mistakenly thinking they were equally fair. One reason the researchers cited was that AI's agreement often came wrapped in neutral, academic language, making its biased opinion hard to recognize. The study warns overusing AI for interpersonal advice may disturb moral growth and narrow perspectives, as avoiding social conflicts — easy with AI — is key to healthy relationships.

I had always been a top student, and before I started my graduate program, I had already completed medical school. I expected excellence from myself. Any misstep, in my view, was a sign that I might not be cut out for this kind of work. I tried to avoid more mistakes, but there was no structured course in my graduate school, and I was unused to building research work.

Mistakes kept piling up: repeated DNA extraction failures, mixed-up results and methods sections in scientific writing. I was overwhelmed with self-blame, feeling all eyes were on me, judging my incompetence.

Then, one night, I had a dream. I knew I was suffering, and I watched myself, with deep sympathy. That dream showed me something I hadn't been able to grasp in waking life: I needed to treat myself with the same pity I would offer a dear friend. I should have seen mistakes as part of growth.

That realization led me to change. The shift in mindset made it easier to avoid being consumed by the weight of failure. I also started to log my mistakes so I could learn from them. I would note whether there was something I could have done differently. Then I would move on. This simple practice helped me a lot.

The reality is, we are all going to mess up. I now realize that's OK, even necessary. "Doing better" comes from "doing first", often with twists and turns along the way.

The researchers drew inspiration from the remarkable efficiency and endurance (持久力) of monarch butterflies, known to have incredibly long migrations between Canada and Mexico. Every autumn, millions of Monarch butterflies start a 3,000-mile journey from their North American breeding grounds to the warmer climate of southwestern Mexico for the winter.

These new robotic wings achieve energy-efficient flight by combining movement with passive bending, which was rarely copied outside the natural world. The team, led by Professor Oliver Gutfleisch and Dr. Denys Makarov, used a combination of flexible plastic fixed with tiny magnetic particles (颗粒) to build the wings.

The team found that the magnetic particles, when exposed to external magnetic fields, caused the wings to bend in a manner similar to that of butterflies. Achieving the desired design proved challenging; however, after testing fewer than 12 different designs, the team could develop wings strikingly similar to those that evolved in butterflies.

Looking ahead, these new wings could have a wide range of applications. One could be environmental research in which winged robots monitor pollinator populations or measure air quality. They could also be helpful in disasters, with their small, energy-efficient design enabling robots to navigate dangerous areas for search and rescue operations. The team also pointed out that the new design could also be readily adapted for medical sciences.

The principle of using magnetic particles in this way could also open doors for developing new kinds of artificial muscles or other innovative materials that can change shape on demand. While the robotic wings currently rely on external magnetic fields to change shape, the team is optimistic about integrating man - made magnetic field generators into future upgrades of the technology. "We plan to explore what changes to magnetic fields can enable more complex movements and control, " explained Muhammad Bilal Khan, another lead author.
