In many places, if you do not take your wallet with you, you'll be in trouble. This is especially true in overseas airports when you want to pay for food or gifts. Luckily you can now pay without your wallet in some overseas airports.

    It's announced on Sept 26 that Chinese tourists can use the third party payment Alipay at ten airports across the world. The 10 airports are in Germany, Singapore, South Korea, New Zealand, Thailand and China's Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macao.

Digital wallets like Alipay, WeChat and Apple Pay have brought big changes to our lives.

    In April, CNN reporter Will Ripley spent a day in Beijing without his wallet. "In China's largest cities, you can definitely (肯定地) survive without carrying a pocket full of money and credit cards — as long as you've got your smart-phone," he wrote. "From small shops to large stores, a huge number of businesses in Beijing accept mobile payments."

    He paid for breakfast by scanning (扫描) a QR code on the window of a restaurant. All he had to do was enter a password.

    Then he also used his phone to pay for movie tickets, buy takeout food, order goods for delivery and hail a taxi.

    But, there is also concern about the safety of the digital wallets. "Don't think the largest payment technology has solved all of its security problems." commented Fox News.

    It is difficult for the parents of every family to teach their children to be responsible (有责任的) for housework.

    The Shatian School in Shanghai is making its students do housework for their parents. The third graders(三年级学生) must learn how to cook and clean, sixth graders do the laundry(洗衣服) and seventh and eighth graders cook balanced meals with 15 yuan.

    Many parents think it's a good way for children to try housework but they don't know how to do it at home. With the following ideas, you really can get your children to help at home.

    If you want to make your children think that they can do everything quite right, please don't always scold(批评) if them but give them lots of praise at home. Talk more about what they did right, not about what they didn't do. If your child finishes some difficult work, give him or her a Sunday trip or a ball game with Dad as a reward.

    Haiyan is 7 years old. Her parents gave her an iPad as a gift for her birthday. A month later，her eyesight（视力）dropped to 300 degrees. This is serious for such a young child.

    Many children in China are facing the same problem: iPad using is bringing problems to their eyesight. The problem is so common that newspapers even call the iPad the "No. 1 killer of children's eyesight!"

    "There are about 30 shortsighted children coming every day, "said Hu Dali, an eye doctor at Guiyang Aier Eye Hospital. "Half of those children have poor eyesight because they have played with phones and iPads for too long. "

    Doctors and scientists say children's vision（视觉）is not yet fully developed and their eyes get tired more easily. The screen of an iPad uses very bright（明亮的）LED backlight. If children look at an iPad screen for a long time, their eyes do not have time to rest. This will make their eyesight worse over time.

    Doctors advise that users should hold their iPads between 40-60 centimeters（厘米）away from them. The brightness of the screen should be comfortable for children. Parents should also stop their children from using an iPad for more than one hour every day.

    If you had billions of dollars, would you donate almost all of it to charity? Well, that's what Mark Zuckerburg, CEO and founder of Facebook, just said he would do.
    Zuckerburg and his wife Priscilla Chan promised to give 90% of their Facebook shares to society. Right now that is about $45 billion, and they plan to donate the money to things like science and education.
    Many billionaires have done similar things. Bill Gates, creator of Microsoft, made The Giving Pledge, an activity in which billionaires promise donate more than half of their wealth to charities. This started in 2010, and now 139 people from 15 countries joined it.
    But giving back and helping others isn't just for big billionaires. People like Zuckerberg, and Gates may have more to give, but people with less are doing it, too.
    Especially around the holidays, people want to do their part and give back to people who are less lucky than them. Schools may have food collections where people bring a few food items, and together they can make a big donation to places like homeless people's homes.
    People also host special events like concerts of runs to be creative while raising money. Regular people donate whatever they can to US charities like the United Way and the American Red Cross.
    Then these charities are able to help US communities in different ways like education, health and improving the lives of the poor. These individual donations come together to make a big difference.
