Wu Zeyin, 12, comes from Hubei, China. He (move) to Botswana with his family eight years ago. "I can see only a few kinds of fruit and vegetables at supermarkets here. They don't look good, but their prices are high," Wu said
Because of the desert climate (气候) in Botswana, it is (true) difficult for farmers there to grow fruit and vegetables. Botswana has to buy lots of fruit and vegetables from other(country), such as South Africa. Botswana has been working with China (solve) this problem. In July 2022, Botswana started program to grow China's water - saving rice. Knowing it, Wu wanted to help with local agriculture (当地的农业) in his way. "I dreamed creating an app to help local farmers," Wu said.
Wu has a good brain and he has made his dream come true by (develop) a new app called Farm Assistant. The app can teach farmers how to grow vegetables such as potatoes, onions, carrots and cabbages. Farmers who use the app can click ( 点 击 ) on a picture of a vegetable to see (it) seed (种子) price, watering needs, selling price, etc. After the farmers plant the seeds, the app can remind them they need to do at different times. Wu hopes his app can make the farmers' work a lot (easy) than before.
What a useful app and what a smart boy!
When I was finishing my tour in Iraq, my parents provided a vacation as a Christmas gift. "London,"I said. They seemed a bit surprised: I grew up there. Why didn't I choose a foreign place? I told them I wanted to go somewhere cold and wet after seven weeks in the desert. At that time this made sense(讲得通), but 10 years later, I've realised I wanted to return for a different reason: South Bank.
When I was 9, we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow, London, on a gray January morning. Everyone in the family was comfortable living in this city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue-sky days, I felt lost and out of place, until I found something.
South Bank is the centre of British skateboarding. I loved it. I soon made friends with the local skaters. We spoke our own language, and my favourite: Safe. Safe meant "cool". It meant"hello". It meant"don't worry about it". Once, when trying a certain skill, I fell onto the stones, and Toby came over, helping me up, "Safe, man. Safe." A few minutes later, when I landed the skill, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting,"Safe! Safe! Safe!"And that's the important thing —landing skills, being a good skater.
When I was 15, my family moved to Washington. I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming. Within a couple of years, I'd given it up.
When I returned to London years later, I found myself walking slowly down to South Bank for hours. I've traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring. The day was cold but clear: tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters. Then a teenager, in a baggy white T-shirt, sat next to me. He seemed not to notice me. But soon I caught a few of his glances. "I was a local here 20 years ago," I told him. Then, slowly, he began to nod his head, "Safe, man. Safe."
"Yeah,"I said. "Safe."

Einstein made great contributions(贡献) to the world, and his sayings are still remembered by people today. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}
"If you can't explain it to a six-year-old, you don't understand it yourself." The more complicated (复杂的) you make something seem, the more you do not understand the inner meaning of it. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} Did they make the most complicated topics that you did not understand full of vocabulary or make them easier to understand by simplifying them?
"I never think of the future. It comes soon enough." {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Don't get yourself worried about the future as the plans you make new may not work in the future. What matters most is living today Do your best right now and do not worry about tomorrow.
"{#blank#}4{#/blank#}" Imagination is very important. When you imagine something differently, you may begin to share it with others. People begin to see the world that you imagine. Together you can create new ideas and help each other. Take time to imagine something, and share your ideas with others.
"Only those who try the absurd (荒诞的事物) can achieve the impossible." Sometimes it seems silly that you are taking risks. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} When you go beyond what others think is reasonable, an amazing thing starts to happen.
