School Day was held successfully on May 6th. Twenty-four student helpers from Grade 8 were divided into four groups. Each group had a task to raise money for the children in poor areas.
Group I | Group 2 | Group 3 | Group 4 |
School postcards (Leader: Natalic) | Chinese paintings (Leader: Tina) | Recycling bags made by students (Leader: Leo) | Homemade snacks by parents (Leader: Nick) |
In short, all of the groups did well on School Day and got no poor opinions from the visitors.
Feedback:
Opinions from 100 students have been collected. Most students thought the activities were good. The following is a satisfaction(满意) feedback form.
TV host and children's book writer Markette Sheppard has always been a good storyteller. In her new picture book, Ninja Nate, which came out in September, she has written an inspiring story that helps children find courage.
Ninja Nate is about a ninja young boy named Nate who has a robotic leg because of a recent accident. Because he thinks other kids will tease him, he wears a ninja costume to hide his leg. In the story, Nate realizes that if he wants others to accept his difference, he has to embrace it first.
Sheppard grew up in Los Angeles, California, and wanted to be a news reporter from a young age. She told the reporter that she would create news reports and ask her dad to film her works.
After graduating with a master's degree in journalism(新闻)from American University in Washington D. C. Sheppard became the host of Great Day, Washington, CBS's morning show in Washington D. C. It was a "dream job," she said.
She decided to try writing a book after becoming a parent. "I wanted to do something more and tell different types of stories," she said.
Sheppard was inspired to write Ninja Nate, her third book, after reading a news story about a boy with a robotic leg. She thought about her young son and said she hoped he grew up with the courage to celebrate differences, "What makes you different is your superpower," she said.
More than 50 years ago, a famous British band called the Beatles split up (解散). They haven't recorded any music together since then, but artificial intelligence(AI) has helped to create one last Beatles song. This is just one of the ways that AI is changing the world and how we live. As technology improves, the use of Al is spreading.
The invention of AI
In the 20th century, scientists began to wonder if computers could think like us. In 1950, the British expert Alan Turing created the "Turing test" to see whether a computer is intelligent.
During this test, a human tester puts questions to a person and a computer at the same time. Both answer the questions, and the tester must decide which answers came from the human. If the tester can't tell the two apart, the computer is intelligent. Many people believe AIs that can write, like the ChatGPT system, have already passed this test.

AI is part of everyday life. It can study lots of information and from that work out what is likely to happen next. Self-driving cars, for example, use AI to make decisions. In hospitals, AI can study information about thousands of people to work out what might be wrong with a patient from their test results. Tools like ChatGPT can write computer code, stories and even solve maths problems.
The future of AI
Some people worry about how AI might influence their jobs. If computers can create pictures, music and text, could artists, musicians and writers one day be replaced? Many people also fear that AI could be used to invent and spread lies. Even those who work in AI say there should be rules about how it is used. However, AI can spark(激发)creativity too. AI is very good at suggesting drugs to treat diseases, and can even invent new medicines. It can help us fight weather change by finding clever ways to reduce our energy use. One day it might even find a way to solve our energy needs completely.
It's common to wonder sometimes, "What if something goes wrong?" It's important to recognize(识别) that thought and manage it so that you don't lose yourselves in the worry.
Worrying about the future is a normal part of life. From time to time, everyone wonders what would happen if something doesn't go to plan: "What if I make a mistake?" or "What if everyone laughs at me?". These "what-if" worries focus on a bad result. Spending a lot of time "what if-ing" makes you not want to do things, and it can make it hard to pay attention to what you're doing or what people are saying.
There are different ways you can help yourself. Expert Angela McMillan suggests creating an "IF / THEN " plan. "For example," she says, "IF you have to stand up in front of the class, THEN you will take three deep breaths and remind yourself you have prepared and you're OK. Or IF the social event is really noisy and you don't know what to do, THEN you can step outside for a few minutes. " You can also know what you're worrying about and then challenge it. Try thinking about what could go right. For example, instead of thinking "What if I miss the ball when I try to kick it?" You should ask "What if I score a goal? "
McMillan points out that most worries never happen. "Remember they are thoughts and the bravest thing we can do is to not let the worry win," she says. Try to focus your attention on what you're doing. That could be the book you're reading, the TV show you're watching or the conversation you're having. Getting angry with yourself will make you feel worse, so be kind to yourself. Think about how you would talk to your classmate who is feeling worried-and then speak to yourself in that same way.
