      In Germany there are different kinds of high schools. Some prepare students for workers, others prepare them for college. All schools are great places for making friends and learning German.
Short days
      Most high schools in Germany begin at about 8:00 a.m. and end at about 3:30 p.m. This means your morning will be busy with classes. You will have time to do homework and take part in private(私人的) clubs after school.
Formal setting
     In Germany, teachers and students' relationship is more formal than you might be used to. Teachers are respected and students must use the formal “Sie(德语,您)” when talking to teachers.
Getting to school
      Most students take public transport to school or ride a bicycle. Some areas have school buses. It is not common for parents to drive students to school.
Private clubs
      In many countries, schools offer official sports and after-school activities. This is less common in Germany. After-school activities are usually organized through private clubs. There are clubs for things like soccer, dance, choir, theatre and almost everything else. Once you are in Germany, ask around at school and talk to other students to find out what private clubs are in your area and meet your interests.
Different states, different schools
     Each of Germany's 16 states has its own slightly different school systems. The school system in Brandenburg will be a little different from the system in Bavaria for example. Where you live, your knowledge level and your age will decide what school you can attend.

Seven years ago,Joyce Akinpe moved to Australia to start a new life,finding an exciting job in Sydney. After the outbreak(爆发)of COVID﹣19,she suddenly lost her job. 

Seeing that there were many others like herself in trouble from the outbreak,Akinpe and her two roommates,Michelle Gomez and Maureen Lee,brainstormed ideas for how to help their local community. They came up with a street pantry(储藏柜). Gomez said the idea was very simple,"Take what you need and leave what you can. "

With the help of Gomez's father,they built the Blessing Box — a street pantry,with shelves and hanging baskets and two doors made from old furniture. 

It sits just at the back of the three girls' home,so they can look after it. They put some information notices into their neighbors' mailboxes,and the Blessing Box was quickly filled with the donations(捐赠)from the community. "It is the community's strong support that keeps the project alive. " Akinpe said. 

"We now have hundreds of people visiting our box every day. It might only take two hours for the box to be full and next hour it might become empty again. We are now helping others to carry out similar projects in their own communities,too," Gomez said. 

Lee said things in the box were mostly convenience foods,as well as some necessary life things such as spaghetti and toilet paper. "Few people take everything at once. They think there are other people who need them more. " Lee added. 

There were many people rushing there for donations. The three girls needed to sanitize(消 毒)all the donations and make sure all food packages were not broken. Gomez said that they had no time for rest,but what they did was well worth.

Robots become a bigger part of daily lives like in teaching, taking care of us, and even being our friends. Today, designers are considering how to get humans to trust robots. They pay special attention to voices, accents (口音), and dialects (方言) that robots use.

Imagine a "robot voice" in your head. Maybe it sounds like a robot from science fiction movies or TV shows. It could be robotic, unnatural, and sound like a boss. Nowadays, however, machines are starting to talk more and more like real people.

Here comes a question. Do people like robots that speak with a standard accent, or with accents and dialects from their own region? Some people think robots with standard accents sound smarter. But other researchers say robots with accents and dialects might feel more friendly and comforting. They might even seem more trustworthy (值得信任的).

To find out more, a group of researchers in Germany did a study. They wanted to know how people feel about robots based on the dialect they use. Katharina Kuhne and her team asked 120 Germans to watch a video of a small robot called Nao. Nao spoke in either standard German or the Berlin dialect.

After watching the video, the researchers asked the participants (参与者) which robot they thought was more trustworthy. Most people liked the robot that spoke in standard German, but not everyone did. If the participants spoke the Berlin dialect well and often, they thought the robot that spoke it was more trustworthy.

Kuhne's team knows there are many other factors that could influence how people feel about robots, like how they look, if the voice sounds like a man or a woman, and the meanings behind different dialects. But their study still gives us a good idea of how language can change the ways we interact with and think about robots. The results of this study can help make robots that meet the needs of people from all kinds of backgrounds.
