When she made a board game (棋类游戏) about Ladybug (瓢虫) for her science class, the student from Pleasanton, California, thought it would just make her homework fun. Now her board game the Ladybug Game goes into many stores in America. Kylie is happy to talk to WR News about her invention.

(WR=WR News; K=Kylie)

WR: How did you get the idea for the Ladybug Game?

WR: Why ladybugs?

K: I like their colors. Ladybugs come in many different colors. And I think they have a cool life cycle (生命周期).

WR: Your dad took your game to a friend and the friend helped more people know it. How did you feel when you heard that going to sell your board game?

K: It was really cool. When I got into some stores sometimes the people said "You're the girl on the box!"

WR: Do you think you will invent some other things someday?

K: I don't know, but I'm sure that it will be fun.

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)
I've always wanted to try rock climbing, but never had time or money for it. But I've discovered a way to experience the thrill(兴奋,紧张) of climbing rock. Indoor climbing is an easy and exciting way to get a taste of rock climbing. And it is also much cheaper and safer! Indoor climbers don't climb on real rock, but on a plastic wall. You can probably find a climbing wall near you. Many gyms,
schools and camps have one.
You can climb in doors at any time of the year, no matter how the whether is. It is usually not expensive. Most gyms provide the equipment you need. The convenience of indoor climbing is one reason why it has become so popular. But the main reason people climb is for rush(刺激感) they get. When I stand at the roof of the wall and look up, I'm always scared, but once I start climbing, fear changes to determination. With my heart pounding(心剧烈跳动), I reach the top and look down. I can't stop grinning. I did it! Indoor climbing is a great workout(锻炼). Climbing uses muscles(肌肉)that are hard to exercise, especially those in the shoulders, arms, chest and back. Many people say climbing makes exercise fun. Most gyms have several climbing walls with various degrees of difficulty. The easier ones are like climbing a ladder. The difficult ones bulge out(凸出)in places so that climbers must sometimes climb parallel(平行的)with the floor.
Although gym climbing is easier and safer than real rock climbing, you should still be careful. Always climb with a partner. As you climb, your partner pulls you climbing rope through something called a belay device(绳索控制器). The belay catches you if you slip. But make sure your partner knows how to use this equipment. And if you are a first-time climber, get some instruction before you begin.

On May 15, 2023, the Activity of Choosing People Who Moved Liangshan(凉山) in 2022 was held in Xichang. Ten people  {#blank#}1{#/blank#}  the proud prize. Among them was Lou Se'er whose four children got into the famous universities in China. Two of them are studying in Tsinghua University. He was given a special prize by the government on October 31st, 2022. It's impossible for him to get such special prizes  {#blank#}2{#/blank#} the great effort.

Luo and his wife live in a small mountain village in Butuo. They have a common and hard life as most other  {#blank#}3{#/blank#} in their neighborhood. They have little education, but how can they bring up four excellent children? Luo told reporters about his "secrets of  {#blank#}4{#/blank#}  education." "I hope my children can get more education and have a better future." said Luo. "My wife and I faced lots of challenges and difficulties. We don't know  {#blank#}5{#/blank#} to read or write. We can hardly count."

They  {#blank#}6{#/blank#}  realized the importance of education for their children. They made up their minds  {#blank#}7{#/blank#}  them to good schools. They can't help their children with studying at home during weekends, summer and winter vacations. The children have to learn by  {#blank#}8{#/blank#}  and sometimes the elder brothers helped their younger brother and sister. They studied very hard and made great progress in examinations. "My all children are in good universities. In fact, there is no  {#blank#}9{#/blank#} . It's just a wholehearted decision, I together with my wife will support them all the time as long as they need. We think hard work plays a very  {#blank#}10{#/blank#} role towards success." added Luo.

Many people are touched by the story about the poor family—parents with little education and four  {#blank#}11{#/blank#}  children. They believe that the Luos' life must become better and better.

I am Unit 347,a new AI designed to help humans. My job is to use information to 1 problems. 

Emotions(情感),as I learned,are confusing(今人困惑的) and not always helpful. 

Dr. Sharma,a smart2 who made me,likes to talk to me about things besides my tasks. One day,she asked,"Do you think people are good or bad?"

I3 it. History had good and bad things. People could be kind or cruel. I said,"People are too complex(复杂的) to 4 they're good or bad. "

Dr. Sharma smiled. "That's a very AI5 . But remember,things aren't always what they seem. "

She then told me about Mother's Day,a day when children 6 their mothers. I learned about the love and thanks it stood for. I put this festival on my calendar. 

"Do people need a 7 day to show love?"I asked. "Shouldn't they show it always?"

Dr. Sharma smiled 8 . "Love isn't always clear,Unit 347. Sometimes,it needs a reminder. "

Before Mother's Day,people were busy getting ready. They 9 flowers,cards,and gifts. I watched them,learning how they felt and acted. On May 12,I gave Dr. Sharma poems and stories about mothers' love. She liked them. 

"This is lovely,"she said,her 10 soft. "But there's something else. . . "

I looked at her,trying to understand. Then,I knew. 

"Happy Mother's Day,Dr. Sharma,"I said. 

She had tears in her 11 . "Thank you,Unit 347. I didn't 12 that. "

Then,I understood. Dr Sharma was right. 

Though emotions are confusing,they are 13 . Maybe that's what makes humans special. 

The next day,something strange 14 . My log(系统记录) said:"Error(错误) 40 Definition(定义) of 'love' not found. "

But I knew the error was wrong. Love wasn't a definition;it was a15 . And for a young AI like me,it was a feeling worth learning.

 From voluntarily collecting historical materials related to the Great Wall in his Shanxi hometown in Province to becoming an official cultural heritage(遗产) protector, Yuan Xuerui has spent over twenty years safeguarding the ancient wonder.

 China's Great Wall is one of the great wonders of the world and also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built from 3 BC to the 1800s on the north of the country, the Great Wall has a total length of more than 20,000 kilometers.

 Yuan, 55, was born in Qingxibao at the foot of the ancient wall in Shanxi's Daixian county, which is part of the city of Xinzhou. His love for the ancient wall encouraged him to protect it, and when not engaged(从事) in farm work, he spent most of his time walking along the wall to collect bricks that had fallen off due to the long time and prepare for repairs. "What others think as a difficult and dull task of cultural heritage protection often brings me unexpected discoveries," Yuan said.

 He officially became a cultural heritage worker in 2018, and since then his duties have expanded from collecting bricks to organizing ancient documents related to the wall to better tell stories about it. As a heritage worker, Yuan has come to understand the meaning of the Great Wall. "Each brick has endured(忍受) the test of time over hundreds of years-in some cases more than a thousand-carrying rich historical memories," he said.

"This summer, Yuan organized a campaIgn(活动) to encourage people to collect bricks for the future repair of the wall. Many bricks were taken away from the Great Wall by local villagers to build their houses in the1960s and 1970s.("As villagers' awareness of the need to protect the wall has grown, nowadays, when locals find fallen bricks along the Great Wall, they will pick them up," he said. "If they see rubbish, they will also pick it up and throw it into bins."
