A young man came across a spring of delicious water while wandering in the desert. The water was very sweet. He filled his leather canteen (皮革水壶)so he could bring some back to an old man in his village who had been his teacher.
After a four-day journey, he gave the water to the old man. The old man took a deep drink, smiled warmly and thanked his student for the sweet water. The young man returned to his home with a happy heart.
Later, the teacher let another student taste the water. He spat it out (吐出)，saying "it was awful and sour because of the old leather canteen . "
The student asked his teacher, "Master, the water was terrible. Why did you pretend to like it?"
The teacher replied, "You only tasted the water, I tasted the gift. When my student gave me the water, it was an act of love and kindness and nothing could be sweeter. "
I think we understand this lesson best when we receive gifts of love from young children. Whether it's a paper boat or a drawing, the natural and proper response (回应) by is appreciation (欣赏) and thankfulness because we appreciate the gift.
Gratitude (感激)doesn't always come naturally. Unfortunately, most children and many adults value only the thing that is given, rather than the thought behind it We should remind ourselves and teach our children about the beauty of expressing gratitude. After all. gifts from the heart are really gifts of the heart.

What will the schools of the future look like? Smart campuses (大学校园)are being built all over the world. Their high-tech features (特色) help students learn more effectively(有效的) as well as bring convenience (便利) to teachers.
The University of British Columbia has created Canada's first 5G-powered smart campus, according to The Star, a local newspaper. The school worked with a company to build a 5G network across its campus. Their researchers can use the network to test 5G software (软件).
At Staffordshire University in the UK. many students enjoy talking to Beacon and asking it questions. Beacon is an AI chatbot (聊天机器人) that was developed by the university. It is like a personal assistant (助手) for students at the school. They can ask it questions, such as whether or not one of their classes is canceled.
Amazon also has smart campus products. Alexa, the company's voice-activated (声控的)smart assistant, can be used to help teachers run their classes more efficiently(高效率地).For example, Alexa can remember the teacher's classroom preferences(喜好)，such as how bright the lights should be, and change them accordingly, according to Amazon.
People often describe universities as "mini-cities". They often have their own roads, shops, and banks. Universities are seen as good places to test smart technology, because they have control over all of their buildings.
"Cities are so big, and there are so many players and stakeholders(利益相关者)，it can be difficult. But universities have control over all their buildings... so they can become like a living lab." said Germmy Ginty, a designer who is working on a smart campus development project for the University of Glasgow, the UK, in a report by The Guardian.
In the USA, many teachers keep fish, rabbits and other animals in their classrooms as class pets. They say the animals help students with their lessons. According to the American Humane organization, more than 70 percent of teachers who have classroom pets say the animals help students learn responsibility. Research also shows that classroom pets can reduce (减少)stress since they are fun to be with.
But others think pets should be expelled from classrooms. In January, 2018, the Durango School District (学区)in Colorado put a ban (禁令)on class pets. Now animals can be brought into Durango schools for certain lessons, but they can't stay. Officials were worried that animals might create problems tor kids with allergies (过敏反应).They also worried about whether the animals would gel proper care. Here's what two students think:
Schools should ban pets because students might have a hard time paying attention to the teacher when there are animals in the classroom. Besides, being in a noisy classroom can be stressful for animals. Students might not know how to deal with them properly. They could drop them or feed them the wrong food.

Having classroom pets gives students a fun way to learn about animals. In my class last year, we had a bearded dragon (鬃狮蜥)named Elliot as our class pct subjects. Pets also help kids learn how to work as a team. My classmates and I took turns feeding Elliot and cleaning his home.
Dear Daddy,
Hey! How s everything going? It's been so many days since you went to Wuhan. I remember I saw the luggage (行李) in your bedroom. I asked you, "Are you going to leave on business? " You smiled and put your hand on my head saying, "I'm just tidying up some clothes". Later that night, I learned that you and mom had asked to be sent to Wuhan and were waiting for a phone call. At that moment, I hoped neither of you would get the call. However, your phone still rang.
When you were leaving , I waved(挥手)to you until I couldn't see you anymore. Tears flowed down my face. I later realized it was Lantern Festival. I wrote down "Bon voyage" and "Waiting for you to come back'' in my notebook. I knew the people of Wuhan needed you more than I did. At night, mom sent me some photos of you and the rest of the medical team I immediately found you in the photos. I pointed you out and yelled, "Hey, this is my daddy!'' After you left, I paid more attention to the battle against the new coronavirus. I wondered whether you would take good care of yours elf. Daddy, remember to exercise and get enough rest.
We all miss you every day. I love you, my superhero, forever and ever.
