Subway

    A subway is not just an important form of transport. It is also a window for other people to learn about local cultures.

    Beijing, China

    The Beijing Subway was opened in 1969 and is the oldest subway system in China. It has added some modern technologies. All stations now have touch-screen maps. In some stations, people can also see traditional Chinese cultures. For example, on the walls of a few stations of Line 8, there are some pictures of blue and white porcelain(青花瓷).

    Stockholm, Sweden

    The system of the Stockholm Subway has 100 stations in use, of which 47 are underground and 53 above ground. The first subway line for Stockholm was opened in 1950. The Stockholm Subway is well-known for its decoration of the stations. It is called the longest art gallery in the world. Over 90 percent of its stations are decorated with paintings. A few stations are decorated with red bedrocks(岩床). This makes you feel as if you are in a cave.

    London, UK

The London Underground or the Tube is the oldest subway in the world. It was opened in 1863. During World War II, it was used to protect people from German plane attacks(袭击)on London. Now, it is a symbol of the city. There is no air conditioning in the trains, so it is very hot in summer.

    New York, US

The New York City Subway has the most extensive public transportation system in the world, with 469 stations. It is also one of the world's oldest public transit systems. The New York City Subway runs 24 hours a day. It has an express train on almost every line. You can get to your destination(目的地)promptly.

Bad things happen to many of us. Something makes you sad, angry, frustrated or disappointed. But you still have to get up and go to work. Everything others say to you sounds stupid. Everyone seems to annoy you from time to time. Luckily, you can do something about it. Here are some ways to turn around a bad day.

Accepting that you're in a bad mood is not that hard. If you're mad, be mad. If you are sad, be sad. This does not give you license to be rude and unpleasant to others. It just means that you need to recognize and accept your bad mood to be able to do something. 

You can try to keep your bad mood a secret and put on your happy mask. But guess what! You're fooling nobody around you but yourself. The best thing to do is to tell the people you work closely with what is happening to you. Just simply tell them "Listen, I'm in a really bad mood today. I'm not sure why, but it has nothing to do with you. If I bite your head off. I say sorry in advance."

Spend a few moments trying thinking of at least one or two things that aren't all bad: Something that you look forward to, such as a person you like at work or something nice that happened recently.

Take some quiet time. Have a walk in your lunch break. Sit and work somewhere peaceful alone. Take a relaxing long bathroom break. Consider going home early or taking the day off.

 The Feynman Technique(费曼学习法) was developed by Nobel Prize- winning physicist Richard Feynman. It's a study method that helps students learn by teaching others.

 The Feynman Technique has been one of the most useful study methods for many years. For one thing, it helps students really understand something instead of just memorizing information. Plus, unlike traditional study methods like reading textbooks or reviewing notes, it pushes students to be mate actively involved in the learning process.

 If you want to use the Feynman Technique to study better, follow these steps. To begin with, choose a topic you want to learn, including sub- topics(子主题). If not, you' ll end up jumping between topics without developing a deeper understanding of any of them.

 The second step is the heart of the Feynman Technique: explaining the topic simply enough to be understood by a sixth- grade student. This requires you to help the child understand by using the simplest and clearest language possible. This step helps divide indigestible topics into their most basic parts.

 Next, review your explanation and try to find any area where you felt that you couldn't explain the topic simply. When possible, it can be very helpful to get advice from someone whose understanding is similar to that of a sixth- grader.

 The mourth step. is to improve your explanation using the information collected from the third step Finally, repeat the steps. The Feynman Technique works best with repetition, and that is why going through all the prior(先前的) steps just once is usually not enough to fully understand the topic.

 Once you' re confident you've learned the topic, it's time to give yourself a prize. Perhaps, like me, enjoy a nice cup of coffee.

 阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。

① Meet Sora, the cool model from OpenAI. It can turn your words into videos like magic! Just tell Sora your idea, and watch it make a video right before your eyes. 

② There's no doubt that Sora is amazing. Videos created by Sora look good on both big and small devices(设备), such as computers and smartphones. Sora can also make scenes(场景)with lots of people doing different things with clear details. It also knows how things should look in real life. 

③ Why is it so good? Actually, Sora looks at many videos and learns from them by breaking them into very small bits(片段). It uses these bits to make a new video. The new video is gray at first and very messy-you can't tell what's in it. Then, Sora fixes the video until it looks good and smooth. Besides, Sora also gets help from ChatGPT, which turns the user's short sentences into clear instructions. This helps Sora make the video just as you asked. 

④ However, there are still some shortcomings to be improved. Sora may find "busy"pictures hard to understand. For example, when a person moves, things around them change. In one video created by Sora, a grandma blows the candle on a birthday cake, but the flame doesn't move. Sora may not be able to tell "left" from "right" and mess up a person's leg moves. In another video made by Sora, a lady in a red dress is walking on a street. The picture in the water on the ground changes when she walks. The people in the back move in a normal way and the buildings change as she walks. The woman's skin(皮肤) looks real, with acne marks(痘印) on her face. However, when the video reaches 30 seconds, the woman's right and left legs exchange places as she walks.
