Many people may not know the name of the girl in the photo but her large and clear eyes can often be seen in newspapers.

    Her name is Su Mingjuan and now she's more than 30 years old. In 1991, when Su was only 8 years old, Xie Hailong, a photographer from China Youth Daily, took a picture of her in a classroom which was in a poor condition in Anhui.

    The photo was later used as a poster for Project Hope. It has become a symbol of the country's efforts to make more people realize the importance of education. Her large and clear eyes crying for knowledge in the picture have moved a big number of people across China, who have donated (捐赠） money to help children continue their schooling since then.

    Having received help from Project Hope, Su herself has also been helping poor students. She began to study at Anhui University in 2003. After entering college, she wrote to the China Youth Development Foundation, the organizer of Project Hope, to transfer her living allowance (补助) of 900 yuan a term to other students in need. And she began to do part-time jobs to make money. After graduation, Su found a job in a bank. Since she started working, she has donated 1,000 yuan every year.

    Since it was started in 1989, Project Hope has received about 13 billion yuan in donations from home and abroad. And the money has been used to build over 19,000 primary schools and help over 5. 5 million children.

Do you know ChatGPT? It's an artificial intelligence (AI 人工智能) tool. It can answer questions, tell {#blank#}1{#/blank#} ( story), and do much more. But it's very" thirsty", said a new study.

ChatGPT has" homes" around the world in data(数据) centers. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} it works, the computers in the data centers get very hot. Workers then have to use water to cool{#blank#}3{#/blank#}( they) down. Cold water goes into the pipes(管子) near the computers.

When you ask ChatGPT 20 to 50 questions, it" drinks"500 milliliters of water!

In Xi' an, there is a restaurant owner named Xiong Wencheng. He {#blank#}4{#/blank#} ( offer) the" No.6 combo"—a free meal, to help people in need for three years.

There is a sign on the restaurant door, it says,"▲ you {#blank#}5{#/blank#}( experience) a hard time in Xi' an now? If you can't afford a meal, you can enter the restaurant and ask for the‘ No.6 combo'."

The" No.6 combo" is made up of a bowl of spicy soup. locally called hulatang, and a baijimo. It {#blank#}6{#/blank#} ( consider) as a secret code(暗号) between the customer and the restaurant. With this secret code, the one who is in need can ask {#blank#}7{#/blank#} help without feeling embarrassed.

Actually, it's not {#blank#}8{#/blank#} easy plan. The cost of the combo is 8 yuan. Even if 20 people ask for it, it {#blank#}9{#/blank#} ( cost) 160 yuan. Besides the" No. 6 combo", the restaurant has been serving free breakfast to street sanitation workers(环卫工人) since 2015.

When asked why he did that, Xion g {#blank#}10{#/blank#} ( say) ," It's possible for anyone to meet difficulties. I hope that those who receive help will, in turn, give a hand to others."

You may think that students in the US have little homework or they don't work hard at school. You may also think that they have few rules or their teachers are not strict at all. When I went to school in the US, I found that not all these things were true. Let's take a look at a day at my school.

Take classes. All the students should take classes seriously( 认 真 地 ) . They know their strength(长处) and try to be better at it. They ask lots of questions in class. Grades mean a lot to them. There are lots of rules at school. Sometimes, they can't even use nicknames(绰号).

Do after- school activities. School is over. There is little homework, but there is more to do. There are a lot of after- school activities , like drama(戏剧), sports , art, debate(辩论) and more. In China, many

students do after- school activities just once a week. But students in the US do them for a few hours a day, every day of the week.

Students in the US might have more free time than those in China, but they are hard workers, too.

What would life be like if you were a rocker, a soccer player, a professor(教授）at Stanford University, and a Nobel Prize winner? Carolyn Bertozzi from the US lives such a cool life!

Bertozzi, 56, wins this year's Nobel Prize in chemistry and becomes this year's only female(女性) winner in science and the eighth female to receive the chemistry prize in history.

Bertozzi won the prize for studying the sugar coats of cells(细胞）. She has found a smart way to connect cells together. This finding helps to develop better tests for serious diseases like cancer.

However, Bertozzi said she only fell in love with chemistry until her second year at Harvard University."Most of my classmates thought the class was very difficult. But I liked it a lot because in my eyes the problems were challenging even though it usually took me long hours to solve them."

Besides doing science studies, Bertozzi has lived a colorful life. She was a keyboarder in a rock band and she also played soccer, winning an athletic scholarship from Harvard.

Moreover, Bertozzi never forgets her job as a female scientist. "In the late 1980s, only 10 percent of the students were females," she told Chemical & Engineering News. "There were maybe only one or two females in a lab, so we tried to support each other by starting a monthly get-together. Now, I'm so glad to see more and more females taking part in science." In 2022, Bertozzi won an award from the American Association for the Advancement of Science for her work to increase diversity(性别多元）in science.
