I clearly remember the day. I was ten when Mom and I boarded the Antarctic cruise ship. To tell the truth, I never knew how wonderful Chinese medicine was. The crew greeted us with false smiles, and it was clear they didn't really care. Mom saw I was uncomfortable and patted my head gently, telling me not to worry.

During the trip, Mom and I often sat in a corner of the dining hall, reading old medical books. Our daily doings attracted a couple's attention. The husband was a soldier and couldn't walk; he had to use a wheelchair. One afternoon, the wife pointed to the badge (徽章) on Mom's coat and asked curiously what it was about. "This shows our family's long-standing tradition of Chinese medicine. Mom is a Chinese medicine teacher," I said. They looked at each other, surprised because it was the first time they'd seen a Chinese doctor.

Then we met in the following days and I knew the husband was called Mark and Emma was his wife. Mark told us his sad story about how his legs got hurt in the war. Mom offered to try acupuncture (针灸) on him. At first, he laughed sadly. He said even doctors from Harvard couldn't help him. But Emma told him to give it a try. "Darling, could it get any worse than it is now? So why not give it a shot? Remember we first met at a ball ten years ago?" With his wife's encouragement, he agreed and murmured, "Valentine' s Day is only a week away". Mom put the needles in carefully. Seconds passed slowly. Suddenly, he shouted, "I can feel something! It's like an electric feeling in my legs!" First, a waiter rushed in, his eyes wide with curiosity. Soon, two passengers came in too, and before long, a small crowd had gathered, watching nervously. As Mom put more and more needles in, it felt like time stopped.

Schedule "Worry Time"

Before bed, set a timer for 5 minutes and let yourself fully express your fears and doubts. The key is to do this not in bed, but somewhere else, like during a walk or while driving. . This helps you mentally transition and prepares you for sleep.

Even if you're anxious, try to maintain your regular bedtime routine. Staying consistent with your schedule prevents you from staying up too late, which can lead to exhaustion and emotional fragility the next day. Consistency is key to preserving your sleep habits.

Put Your Phone on "Do Not Disturb" Mode

. To create a more peaceful environment before sleep, it's a good idea to switching your phone to "Do Not Disturb" mode, which will prevent any incoming texts, calls, or notifications from interrupting your relaxation. Better yet, move your phone to another room. This helps you avoid unnecessary stress and preserves your peace of mind, especially when you can't control external events.

Write Down Your Thoughts

If anxious thoughts keep you awake, write them down. This gives your mind a release and stops it from sticking to fear-based thoughts. For every negative thought, write a positive one to balance your emotions.

This practice helps calm your stress-response system and prepares you for restful sleep.

Seek Out Mindless Entertainment

Instead of focusing on stressful news, distract yourself with light-hearted activities like reading a fun book or watching a silly movie. .

By following these tips, you can create a calmer environment for yourself and improve your sleep quality, even during stressful times. Remember, sleep is essential for managing anxiety and maintaining overall well-being.

A. Stick to Normal Routine

B. Maintain Good Sleep Habits

C. Sleep acts as a refresher for the mind, helping us clear our thoughts

D. Before bed, disconnect from your phone to avoid being interrupted

E. Balancing negative thoughts with positive ones reduces stress and promotes relaxation

F. This guides your thoughts to positivity, easing anxiety and promoting natural sleep

Sound is the basis of music. Our ears sense sound as vibrations (振动) in the air. When a musician plays a guitar, for example, the strings vibrate. These vibrations travel through the air as sound waves and reach our ears. The frequency of these sound waves determines the pitch (音高) of the note. High-frequency waves produce high-pitched sounds, like the sound of a bell, while low-frequency waves create low-pitched sounds, similar to the deep sound of a bass drum.

Harmony, another essential element, happens when several notes are played at the same time. Certain combinations of notes sound pleasant to our ears, creating harmony. This is because these combinations have a simple mathematical relationship between their frequencies. For instance, when a note and its octave (八度音阶) are played together, the frequency of the octave is exactly twice that of the original note. This harmonious combination is pleasing to most listeners.

Music also has a great impact on our emotions. A major key often excites feelings of happiness and optimism, while a minor key can create a sense of sadness or depression. Fast-paced music can make us full of energy, getting our hearts pumping and our feet tapping. In comparison, slow-paced music can calm us down, reducing stress and promoting relaxation.

Moreover, research has shown that music can affect our physical health. Listening to music can lower blood pressure, reduce pain, and improve sleep quality. For example, patients in a hospital setting who listen to calming music often report less discomfort during medical procedures.

The next time you find yourself humming along to a tune or moved to tears by a piece of music, remember the science behind this magical art form.

Why? First, China's internet really offers unique experiences and Chinese apps show growing creativity. I don't use TikTok much myself, but its energy beats any US video platform. The company claims over half of Americans actively use it.

When TikTok faced legal issues this month, American teens didn't turn to European choices.

They rushed to a Chinese app called RedNote (Xiaohongshu). With 300 million Chinese users, this platform recently became popular in America too. The app mixes Chinese text with fashion photos and funny animal pictures for young people from both countries to exchange tips there — like how to make perfect steamed eggs.

DeepSeek itself stands out among AI chatbots. Besides its technical skills and low cost, it has personality. Its responses can be playful or childlike for us — it even rewrote John Milton' s Paradise Lost as an AI-generated original story! This week it became Apple's top downloaded app.

Former generations found Europe culturally"cool", but that appeal faded. Now China stands as America's only true equal in both economy and global impact. Though our cultures differ greatly, both nations share features like openness and business energy. Having visited China 11 times, I' ve seen how its talent and resources create online experiences that attract Americans.

People focus too much on DeepSeek' s technical advance and miss the bigger picture: China isn't just catching up technologically, but culturally too. Their internet world feels alive in ways that connect with young Americans eager for something new.

Like any family, we face challenges. My tween needs homework help during her brother's bath time. Sometimes she has sports events and parties while he stays home sick, needing care. She enjoys patterns and graphic novels; he chews books and throws toys. They won't spend mornings building Legos together like same-aged siblings (兄弟姐妹) might.

Yet these differences feel manageable. If schedules clash, my fifth grader waits or solves problems herself. Though their meals differ, we always eat together. While their skills show the age gap most clearly, this actually benefits them both.

Despite the decade between them, they share toys and activities. When she plays the piano, he sings beside her. When she draws, he scribbles(涂鸦) nearby. The little one learns from his "expert" big sister, while she enjoys his constant admiration — to him, she' s practically the sun itself.

Last week at a berry farm, my daughter raced ahead with cousins. Her brother kept stuffing berries into his cheeks, ignoring my calls. "Get Nic!" I told her. Without turning, she yelled "Come!" He instantly dropped his fruit and ran after her.

Though still awkward, he comforts her when she's upset, climbing into her lap for hugs.

When she's bored, he brings yummy cookies and candies — gifts filled with pure love no age gap can erase.

No parent-child bond matches the unique connection between siblings. Others might question our family, but I wouldn't change a thing.

As far as Daniel knew, there was only one way out of his neighborhood: basketball. So he ran with the ball like the wolves chasing him. He could beat any of the older boys at the court with quick moves, fancy shots, and fast layups（上篮）. The younger kids didn't have a chance against him. Daniel saw basketball as his ticket to a better life and worked hard every day. But life has a strange way of changing when you think you've got everything planned — and that's exactly what happened to Daniel.

One day, while Daniel was shooting around at the local court, some guys from another block came over and asked to play. The big one in the group said that he had heard Daniel was the best and he wanted to see if it is true. Daniel said, "No, I'm just shooting around with my cousin today; I don't want to get all sweaty." But the big guy kept pushing, and Daniel' s cousin was annoyed, "Come on, Daniel, drop this guy!" So Daniel decided to play. He was running circles around the big guy, making shot after shot. But just as the outcome of the game seemed certain, the big guy pushed Daniel hard as he went for a layup. Daniel fell awkwardly and hurt his right knee badly. The doctor said he might never play basketball again, and even if he did, he wouldn't be the same. Daniel felt completely heartbroken.

For the first six weeks, Daniel lay in bed with a thick cast on his leg, feeling like a broken toy. He watched TV all day and ate chips until the bags were empty. He gained a lot of weight as he saw his bright future slipping away. Just when he felt like he couldn't get any lower, his sister Kiki came home from college. She entered the house like a ray of sunshine, telling amazing stories about her life at school.
