Karan Singh is just like any other five-year-old- except for the fact that he is 5 feet 7 inches tall! When he was born, he was 15 pounds- the usual1of a newborn baby is about half of this, and he was four inches taller than the usual baby.2his height and weight at birth, his father Sanjay thought there might be something wrong with him, but doctors found he was3and really fine.

    Before he could walk or talk, Karan was made into The Guinness Book of World Records in 2008 as the tallest and heaviest newborn baby. Karan clearly4his mother, Shweatlana, who is 7 feet 3 inches tall and one of the5women in South Asia! Sanjay is also quite tall at 6 feet 7 inches.

    Being so tall isn't always a great thing for Karan and his6. Karan used to get bullied about his height, but he doesn't anymore. "But they all say that I am cheating when we7 basketball," Karan said.

    Shweatlana also had trouble finding diapers that fit him when he was8and still has trouble finding children's clothes for him sometimes. "Now I just buy him adult size9. They fit him perfectly well," she said.

    She is also10about her health and that her son might have the same condition she has. "I used to get about 1.5 inches of height every year because of too much growth hormone. I sometimes feel afraid that my son has the same disease as I have. But I know he is doing well and he will grow up to be a nice and healthy person."

TikTok (抖音) is a video-sharing app that has taken the world by storm. You'll see dancing, jokes and amazing shows. Many people have found great joy in using the app. They feel relaxed when they watch the videos on TikTok after a day's hard work. However, others think it is not a good idea to use it. Some people, especially the young, have been addicted to (沉迷于) the app. They spend too much time on it. This makes them spend less time on their study or work. What's more, it is bad for their health as well. To solve this problem, TikTok has made lots of changes which are designed to protect its teenage users.

"Users aged 13—15 will not get push notifications (推送) from 21: 00, and for 16 to 17-year-olds, from 22:00. This will help them have more time on work, study, relaxation and sleep," the video-sharing app says. TikTok also made some changes that 16 to 17-year-old users will only receive messages which are good for them. "We want our users, especially younger users to develop good habits when using the Internet earlier," TikTok said.

Another change made earlier from TikTok was stricter. It was said that messages could be sent to users over 16s only. As for users aged 16 —17, if they want to send a message to others, they will need to change to a different sharing option (选择), which protects them from bad information. Besides that, before they share their first TikTok, users under 16 will be asked to choose with whom they want to share their videos.

The head of online child safety at the National Society for the the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, Andy Burrows, welcomed the new changes, saying the changes from TikTok would protect teenagers. "I think this will reduce opportunities for offenders (犯罪者) to trick children." Andy said.

Recently, a video game named Black Myth:Wukong has been a great hit all over the world. Black Myth is China's first AAA video game. Why is it so popular? It is the Chinese culture inside it.

Wukong is a main character from Journey to the West, a Chinese classic god- evil novel written 500 years ago." Chinese god- evil stories are fantastic themselves. No one would dislike them once they start to learn about them. And my game just opens a window." Said Feng Ji, the game's producer. For this reason, although players from other countries were not fans of Chinese culture, they are now" hard- working" on every detail of the novel. For almost the first time, the world tries actively to understand Chinese culture.

The beautiful scenes in the game are also attractive. Among the 36 places that appear in the game, 27 are real in Shanxi Province. Take the Hanging Temple for example. It was built nearly 1,600 years ago and truly hangs on a steep cliff(峭壁). Players are amazed when they realize it is a true attraction.

An American player said," China is rich in culture and stories. I hope we can get more like this. I would love to go to China some day."

Touching China is a TV program on CCTV played once a year. It first appeared in 2003. Tenrole models were praised in the program for their moving stories and great achievements for our society. 

Wu Yuren, a 74-year-old physics teacher from Tongji University in China, was among them. She won the award for her efforts to share knowledge through short videos. By the end of 2023, Wu's popular physics experiment videos had caught over 5. 2 million fans' attention. 

In her short videos, she often wears a coat with several pockets and takes magical "toys". She uses them as teaching tools. She is able to make use of these everyday objects to explain physical questions in a simple way. 

"I made these videos to make young people curious about common life. And I hope they can use everyday tools to experience the fun of discovering the truth of science, "Wu said. 

Wu has been spreading physics knowledge actively for 16 years. She said children's interest in doing experiments made her keep making videos. To guide students to put interest into experimental research, Wu is going to put up online courses as well as short videos. 

According to CCTV, her videos are like "classrooms without walls". The words of the Touching China Award said, "The popularity created by gray-haired people has created real energy. "
