When I arrived in China to teach law, I didn't expect (come) home with so much tea. Nor did I expect what the tea would come to mean.

The meaning became (vivid) clear to me in Chengdu. There, my students and I sat for tea in Daci Temple. They made it carefully, (perform) each step from memory. When I asked why they washed the cups and poured away the (one) cup of tea, they hesitated. It's what their parents and grandparents do and they learned it them, they said. The tradition was about continuity — repeating a gesture countless hands had done before. A quiet ceremony of connection.

In moments like this, I saw something I rarely encounter in the US — a drink that commands respect for its meaning. In the West, tea (see) as a functional drink — something to energize or calm. But in China, tea goes beyond this. It is relational. It is ceremonial. Even when shared casually between friends, it (carry) an unspoken respect.

As China becomes more (center) to global cultural conversations, its tea traditions deserve greater global attention. Not just as a drink, but as an expression of history, hospitality (好客), and human connection. When a student gives you tea from their home province, what they're really giving you is look at who they are, where they're from, and how they stay connected to it.

His garden was his pride. Small yet perfectly kept and2, he worked there daily, even building a3 to keep animals out. Each spring, he started seeds in cups. He watered them4 daily and tied plants to sticks. I admired his work and5 doing the same, but was too afraid.

After he passed away, my sister gave me his seedlings (幼苗) and a note6 how to save seed. I enjoyed the tomatoes but felt7 as the season ended. Could I continue his hobby?

8 the instructions, I saved seeds from the best tomatoes. All winter, I9 myself. However, a voice keeps popping up in my mind, saying "yes, you can." In April, I10 the seeds. Knowing the cost of the grow light for my plants, a friend joked that my tomatoes would be the most11 plants — a joke that turned into12 when he saw the seedlings thriving soon after, clearly13 by my success.

This year, I'll give seedlings to my sister. We'll plant them in my late brother-in-law's old garden. Weedy now, but I believe they'll grow well and14 his legacy. Continuing his hobby, I feel closer to him. I did it, making me15.

Inspired by colleagues in other medical fields, Mirza Melo, an eye doctor for animals in Brazil, decided to try using tilapia skin to treat eye problems in dogs. She focused on eye problems like corneal ulcers and perforations, which are common in dogs with short noses. "These dogs have eyes sticking out from their faces," she says. "So they get injured often."

Normally, doctors treat these eye injuries by placing a piece of horse placenta (胎盘) over the damaged area to help it recover. But in 2019, Melo tried using tilapia skin instead. She successfully treated a Shih Tzu (a species of dog) with a severe eye injury.

Brazil's Burn Support Institute and the Federal University of Ceará, which started the Tilapia Skin Project to treat burns, supported her work. With their help, Melo developed a special membrane (膜) called the acellular dermal matrix (ADM), made from pure collagen taken from tilapia skin.

Collagen is known to help cells grow and repair tissues. Tilapia skin has a high and consistent quality of collagen throughout the fish's life, while the quality of horse placental collagen can vary depending on the horse's age and weight.

So far, Melo has treated over 400 dogs using tilapia skin. The dogs showed no pain or infection after surgery and healed quickly with minimal scarring. Melo is now planning to use this technique on cats and is even discussing how to adapt it for treating human eyes, which are very sensitive and difficult to treat.

Ten-year-old Josh came from a poor family. His mother was a part-time cleaner and his father fixed small appliances for his neighbors. Though the family's clothes were faded and patched (打补丁的), and the rent was a constant worry at the end of the month, Josh's parents always taught him that honesty cost nothing but was worth everything.

One afternoon, Josh walked his bike to old Mr. Black's repair shop. The chain was broken again, and Mr. Black, who was familiar with their struggles — charged only two dollars for the repair. Before Josh left, Mr. Black warned that the frame was nearly worn out. Josh thanked him and promised to ride carefully.

On the way home, Josh discovered something at the bus stop — a thick envelope half-buried in snow. He picked it up and took a look inside. His eyes widened. It was full of cash, more money than he'd ever seen: Hundreds of dollars, maybe thousands.

His first thought was about his mother's worn-out shoes and the rent that was due. He could slip the envelope into his jacket, and no one would know. But then he remembered his father's words: "We might be poor, Josh, but we must be honest." His heart raced as he weighed the wrong that was easy against the right that was hard. Then he sat down on the frozen bench, holding the envelope tightly, and waited.

An hour passed, then two. Josh's toes grew numb (麻木的) as the setting sun painted the sky orange and pink. Occasionally, strangers walked by, eyeing him curiously, but he just held the envelope tighter. A woman asked if he was okay, but he simply shook his head and stayed put. His nose was red from cold, and he shivered uncontrollably, but he didn't move. Finally, just as Josh began to worry about his parents' concern, a black car stopped. Then a man named Eason in a suit jumped out, urgently scanning (察看) the ground.

While visiting tourist spots, more and more young people in China have (choose) to wear traditional Chinese clothing.

Passengers wearing traditional Chinese clothing could take the subway for free for about one week in Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province during this year's Spring Festival holiday. As result, the horse-faced skirt, or mamianqun in Chinese, was popular with women in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, became a hit among young people during the holiday.

People used to think that it was strange (wear) traditional Chinese clothing while walking down a street, they are getting used to it now. Wearing traditional clothing (help) people have a deeper understanding of the cultural meaning behind the clothing. Young people like to wear traditional clothing when traveling because they have realized that their cultural identity is linked to hanfu and it has come into fashion.

Since ancient times, China (be) a nation paying much attention to etiquette (礼仪) and a country known for its clothing. Clothing is one of the signs of Chinese etiquette.

The (popular) of traditional Chinese costumes will keep growing. (hopeful), more enthusiasts will devote themselves to the protection, inheritance and innovative development of traditional Chinese clothing through learning, research and practice. It will certainly make a difference our national identity.

In 2019, Wang had a(n)1 experience due to the wrong address left by a customer. Wang searched three buildings and2 eighteen floors. The customer said3 words to Wang for arriving late.

Wang was sad. As a husband and father, who shoulders the4 responsibility in his family, he had to5 the hurt and apologize. "If I argued with him, he would give me6 feedback and the company would fine me," recalls Wang.

On his way home that day, Wang wrote a poem, Man in a Hurry, expressing his7. Since then, Wang has been8 poems inspired by his daily life.

Wang's poems, simple yet9, are seen as a tool to10 his emotions, especially those he has during his work. His11 is cured by writing the poems. In 2022, one of his friends posted Man in a Hurry online. It quickly went popular and was12 for over 20 million times.

The same year, Wang published a13 of more than 180 poems, under the same title. His poems and stories deeply touched many people, who share similar14 and negative emotions in their lives -so much so that the book's first 5,000 copies15 soon. So far, Wang has written about 4,000 poems.

Reduce. Manufacturing consumer products uses energy and natural resources, and creates waste and pollution. When we consume less, we need fewer natural resources and produce less waste.

Reuse. If you have unwanted books, toys, clothes or other items in good condition, consider giving them to charity instead of throwing them in the trash.

Recycle. Avoid products with much packaging or packaging that cannot easily be recycled. Find out what is recyclable in your area and recycle everyday items such as aluminum cans, glass and plastic containers, and cardboard and paper products.

Save energy. Drive less, use energy-efficient vehicles and appliances, and simply turn off the lights when you leave a room. Many power plants rely on coal and other fossil fuels that damage wildlife habitat when they are taken, and pollute the environment and lead to climate change when burned.

You should keep a safe distance away, do not approach them, and not remove them from their environment. If you encounter an injured wild animal, contact an animal rescuer in your area.

A. Respect wild animals.

B. Cut down your energy use.

C. Plant more trees if possible.

D. Do not throw it away if it still has a use!

E. Here is what you can do to protect the environment.

F. You can also consider joining a community solar program or adding solar technology to your home or business.

G. Reduce your use of single-use plastics, which are difficult to recycle and exist in the environment for decades.

The LPI can be a little perplexing. It doesn't show the change in the total number of animals on the planet. Instead, it shows the average change in the size of animal populations since 1970. For example, if one species dropped from 1,000 animals to 500, that's a 50% drop. If another species dropped from 100,000 to 50,000, that's also a 50% drop. The number of animals lost in the second population is much higher, but they would both count as a 50% drop for the LPI. But even if the numbers aren't perfect, scientists agree that animal populations are dropping. And that's a serious problem.

The report shows that populations have dropped in all kinds of habitats (栖息地). Freshwater habitats, such as rivers and lakes, saw the biggest drop, averaging 85%, followed by land animals at 69%. In the oceans, the drop was56%. Geographically, Latin America experienced the greatest loss at 95%, while Africa's animal populations fell by 76%, and Asia and the Pacific by 60%. Europe and North America had smaller drops, but they still saw a 33% drop since then.

Human activities, including habitat destruction, farming, climate change, pollution, and over- hunting, are the primary cause. The WWF calls for urgent action to protect Earth's wildlife, recommending that 30% of the world's land, oceans, and freshwater be protected by 2030 and that humans change how they eat, farm, and produce energy.

As a member of the Youmei Youth Mountaineering Team, the world's first youth team to climb Qomolangma, Li began his mountaineering journey in January 2023. He said the sport has taught him valuable life lessons, the most important of which is "to have a heart of awe". After returning to base camp, Li kowtowed (叩头) three times to Qomolangma to express his gratitude for a safe climb and for all the lessons it had taught him.

Li Jinghui, the team leader and CEO of Youmei Camp, said the journey took 46 days. After arriving at base camp, the team carried out progressive high-altitude adaptive training, climbing from 5,200 meters to 7,028 meters at Camp1. "This strict training involved walking through real snow and ice environments, practicing crevasse (冰缝) crossing and other high-altitude skills," he said.

Lobsang Dondrub, an experienced mountaineering guide, told China Daily that spring weather on the mountain remains unstable and risky. He noted that teenagers are generally discouraged from attempting the summit because their developing bodies are less able to deal with the challenges of high-altitude climbing. However, he praised Li Haorong's performance in particular. "He braved various challenges, such as the crevasses of the Rongbuk Glacier, the steep ice walls of the North Col and the oxygen-deprived (缺氧的) ‘death zone' above 8,000 meters," he said.

On my first day, I had trouble with a few orders and almost dropped a tray of cups. Then, a bad thing happened: I spilled (洒出) a hot cup of coffee on a customer's white shirt. I felt so embarrassed that my face turned red. I said "sorry" over and over, afraid he would be angry. But he just smiled and said, "Don't worry. It happens to everyone. Once I spilled coffee on my own boss!" His kindness made me feel better, and I decided to work harder.

During that summer, I tried my best to learn. I remembered the menu well, practiced making coffee until I did it right, and learned to write down customers' requests to avoid mistakes. Talking to customers also became easier. I made friends with my coworkers too. The manager Mia taught me to stay calm when the café was busy, and my classmate Jake told me how to balance work and summer homework.

There was an old regular customer named Mr. Harris. He came every morning for black coffee and lemon cake. We often talked during my breaks. He used to be a teacher, and when I told him I didn't know if I should choose art or science classes, he said, "Follow what you like. It's more important than being afraid of failing." His words helped me a lot.

By the end of the summer, I was not the nervous girl I used to be. I became more confident and responsible. This job taught me that mistakes are part of learning. It was more than just a job — it was a great lesson for my life.

The invention of the steam engine was a first step towards the Industrial Revolution that changed the world. Over the years, the engine's efficiency was further improved through different designs and fuels; however, the medium for doing work remained the same-steam.

Scientists seeking further improvements in power efficiency noticed that a significant portion of energy is wasted generating steam to drive turbines (涡轮机). Water needs to be boiled first and needs to undergo a phase change to generate steam. Scientists have been looking for a better medium to replace steam.

They found this in sCO₂. CO₂ exists as a gas at room temperature and can be cooled to form dry ice by reducing pressure and lowering temperature. When temperature is raised to 31℃, and pressure is increased to 7.37 MPa, CO₂ enters its supercritical state, where it exhibits properties of both a liquid and a gas. In applications such as moving a turbine, this is extremely useful since the gas-like state offers less resistance while the liquid-like state provides greater push power.

The power generation process works like this: The CO₂ is first pressurized into a supercritical state. Then the sCO₂ passes through a heat exchanger, absorbing heat from an external heat source, and its temperature rises to 400-600℃ with a substantial increase in internal energy. After that, it enters a turbine and expands rapidly, driving it to move at a high speed and transforming thermal (热的) energy into mechanical energy, which is then further turned into electrical energy for output. The CO₂ remains in a supercritical state throughout the entire process, with no phase change loss.

The success of the Chaotan One will likely start a new era in power generation, using CO₂ as a medium and bypassing the need to transform water into steam.

Born in 1966, Li Baofeng started to make paper-cutting artworks at the age of 6. The skills she demonstrated as a child had amazed many fellow villagers. After she (graduate) from a vocational (职业的) school in 1986, Li became an art teacher at a private school.

(combine) traditional paper-cutting techniques with features of various painting forms, such as Chinese painting and oil painting, Li has created her own art style: multi-layered, colored paper-cutting.

"I have adopted multi-layered, colored paper-cutting techniques to create the (desire) artistic effects. Each layer of the whole paper-cutting piece, which is made from the paper of one single colored sheet, can (view) as a complete single-layer paper-cutting artwork. Most paper-cutting artworks consist over dozens of layers," Li revealed in an interview.

Li once created a paper-cutting artwork based on an oil painting created by a very famous artist. oil painter was deeply impressed by the completed paper-cutting artwork, saying that Li's artwork was better than his (origin) painting.

In 1996, Li started to recreate the key (figure) in the classic Chinese novel, A Dream of Red Mansions. In order to (vivid) craft the main characters, she read the book again and again for a better understanding of them. Her excellent skills demonstrated in the artworks were applauded by Zhou Ruchang, China's leading scholar of the novel.

Sharing is an essential part of our daily lives. When you share your experiences with your peers, they are more likely to feel comfortable sharing their own. If the thought of sharing your experiences holds you back because you believe that you don't have big experiences to share, then, you should get over it right away because all experiences are equally valuable. Here are the tips to make your sharing experience more effective.

Make sure that you go into as much detail as possible. Try to picturise your experience for others so that they can just feel like you do. Share with them what you feel and why you feel that way. Start by sharing when you had the idea for what you are sharing. Then share what happened or what you thought. After that, share why it is important to you or why you think the way you do.

Explain the words. Would you understand every word of your dialogue if you were from another community? If not, consider defining the jargon (术语). As an alternative to saying to your global peers, "I love Kathakali and you should definitely watch it someday." Say something like: "I love Kathakali, which is a form of folk dance, in which the dancers present a drama wearing unique masks. You should watch it someday."

Be fearless. While sharing an experience, you do not have to be embarrassed, afraid to open up. For example, suppose you are discussing gender equality, and some of your peers support the idea that women can only work in certain professions, and you disagree with them. Then, instead of fearing what people would think if you said something unconventional, just say it.

Now that you have read my tips for sharing, go share your own experiences, ideas, and thoughts with the rest of the world. Remember that no experience is too big or too small. Whatever you share would be unique and new to someone who has had different experiences or has different perspectives from you. So, continue to share.

A. Share the details.

B. Because it surely does!

C. Make sense of your experiences.

D. All experiences matter in their own way.

E. You have every right to be brave and frank out.

F. Think about this from another person's perspective.

G. There are no restrictions on sharing what matters to you.

For example, you're walking in the woods, and you see a bear. You recognize it's a bear. Then what happens?

Previously, researchers thought that the fear touches off a series of physical and emotional responses so that your heart rate rises, your breath quickens and the adrenaline (肾上腺素)levels increase in your body and you are well-prepared to run away and live another day.

But the new study has drawn a totally different conclusion: The brain recognizes a bear, and then that recognition leads to all the physiological responses. In other words, to make the decision, your brain takes into account your past experiences and your memories. This step is key. For instance, if your past experiences with bears come largely through news reports of attacks, then your brain will likely interpret your physiological responses as fear. This emotion will help drive you away from the bear in order to live another day.

But what if you are a hunter? And your past experience with a bear ended in a wonderful feast for you and your neighbors. Then your brain may interpret the physiological responses as excitement. This positive emotion will drive you toward the bear in order to bring home dinner.

The study concludes that the chosen emotion not only helps the brain make sense of these signals, but it also helps the brain predict better the immediate future and how to handle the situation at hand.

Understanding how these predictions work helps us realize that emotions aren't uncontrollable reactions to particular situations. Next week, we'll see how to control our emotions in different situations.

Researchers said SwagBot is becoming the world's first "smart cow." They believe it can make cow farming more efficient (高效的) and put less pressure on the environment.

SwagBot was first put into use in 2016. At that time, it could only move around fields where cows were eating grass. Over time, scientists have added sensors (传感器) and AI systems to the robot. These systems help SwagBot judge the health, type, and thickness of grasses and plants in fields and observe the health of the cow.

The robot uses this information to move cows to the best areas for eating grass. The goal to move cows to a new grass area before they can damage (毁坏) the grass in a particular field. This can prevent damage to the soil. The robot can also send the information back to farmers.

Australia is one of the world's biggest exporters (出口商) of beef. It has around 30 million cows spreading across large areas that are often dry. As a result, some grass areas are of low quality and do not have a lot of grass.

Farmers carefully assess how many animals their land can support. However, many farmers have little control over where the animals eat grass within large areas of land. Overeating can lead to poor soil that supports plant and animal life.

SwagBot is still in development. It is part of a growing movement in agriculture towards robotics. Farming experts hope robots can make production more efficient. Robots can also reduce the need for workers in places, like Australia, where finding workers in areas with a low population can be difficult.

Now I work as an art teacher at a primary school. I started a "Trash to Art" club to pass on this spirit. Each week, my students and I collect discarded items – cardboard boxes, plastic bottles, used paper, and old fabric – that would otherwise be thrown away. We clean, cut, and design them into practical or artistic works: pencil holders, flower pots, small toys, and even wall decorations.

At first, many students considered waste dirty or useless. They were used to buying new things and throwing them away without a second thought. But as they worked, their ideas changed. They began to see beauty in ordinary objects and pride in creating with their own hands. One student even told me it was the most fun class he had ever taken.

Our projects also carry a green message. By reusing waste, we cut down on rubbish and save natural resources. The school has set up special recycling corners for our club, and more students have joined us. Some even take the habit home, encouraging their families to join in waste reduction.

Last month, we held an exhibition of our works. Parents and visitors were surprised to see how waste could become such lovely pieces. For me, the greatest joy is not the beautiful works, but watching my students grow into creative, environmentally friendly thinkers. My grandfather's simple lesson lives on in them.
