Going back to school every September can be struggling for most students. However, some schools in China have made it easier.

A high school in Hebei: Treasure hunting to start the semester

Teachers hid coupons (券) in surprising places around the school. Students who manage to collect the coupons are rewarded with gifts, including books and toys.

A university in Zhejiang: Need help carrying your luggage?

Has carrying your suitcases up and down in your dorm (宿舍) building been a headache? Zhejiang University City College has come up with some interesting methods to solve this problem. They use a scaling ladder (云梯) to lift suitcases from the first floor. Students can sit in their dorms and wait for the suitcases to be transported to them.

Chengdu University: Assigning roommates with big data

Getting along with roommates can be difficult when everyone has different habits and personalities. Chengdu University offers a “roommate-selection system” based on big data, which means that after students fill out the questionnaire, including questions about their hobbies, sleeping habits, their roommates will be automatically

assigned by the system based on their preferences. This way, students have more control over who they share their room with.

With considerate teachers and a personalized atmosphere, students will be more ready for the upcoming semester.

“I’ve missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. Twenty-six times I’ve been trusted to take the game-winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”

-Michael Jordan -

In the streets of Brooklyn, New York, Michael Jordan’s story began. Growing up in a working-class family, he faced his fair share of challenges. But it was on the basketball court that he found comfort and discovered his passion. From the start, he continuously sharpened his skills, refusing to let setbacks stop him. He was cut from his high school basketball team in his sophomore year, a moment that could have shattered many dreams. Yet, he used this rejection as fuel to work even harder, eventually becoming a high school star.

Jordan’s efforts led him to the University of North Carolina where he showed his brilliance on the court. In 1982, he got his place in history with a game-winning shot in the NCAA championship, earning his reputation as an excellent performer.

However, in 1993, tragedy happened. Jordan lost his father, James Jordan. Having suffered the great loss, he shocked the world by announcing his retirement from basketball to pursue baseball, a sport his father loved. In 1995, Jordan made a surprising return to basketball and the Chicago Bulls. His perseverance was in full display as he led the team to three NBA championships, proving that even in the face of doubt, he remained unstoppable.

Jordan’s journey wasn’t just about sports; it was about life’s lessons. Jordan has left a permanent mark on the

world, inspiring generations to reach for greatness in all aspects of life. As we face challenges, let us remember the words and actions of this legendary figure, who showed us that no matter the odds, perseverance will always pave the way to success.

Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874-1942) was one of the best-known Canadian authors of the 20th century. Her first novel, Anne of Green Gables, published in 1908, brought her quick fame and success, which encouraged her to continue the story of the heroine, Anne Shirley. Anne of Green Gables was followed by several books about Anne’s life, her children as well as her family and friends. These books cover the life of Anne from her childhood to her old age.

Montgomery grew up in Prince Edward Island, Canada, the same location where the story of Anne of Green Gables took place. Montgomery’s mother passed away when she was a baby, and her father left her with her grandparents when she was still a child. Fond of imagination, nature, and writing, Montgomery started to write poems and keep a diary when she was nine years old. Just like Anne Shirley, Montgomery studied in Prince of Wales College for her teacher’s license. Then she studied literature at Dalhousie University. After that, she worked as a teacher. Though she did not enjoy teaching, it afforded her time to write. Beginning in 1897, her short stories were published in magazines and newspapers. In 1898, she stopped teaching and returned to Cavendish to live with her grandmother.
