It’s a daily chore for every family in China. A study shows that it can take up to an hour and a half to wash the dishes, clean pots and tidy up the kitchen. Many people think this chore is tiring. Then a China-made dishwasher is the perfect answer to free up time and bring happiness. “I bought a dishwasher when I decorated my new home. The dishes are clean after washing, and it saves time for me to do other things,” said Wu Peng, an office worker from Guangzhou. Dishwashers went into our lives in the late 1980s. At that time, they were too expensive for most people, so only some rich families used them. However, in 2015, a Chinese company created the world’s first sink dishwasher (水槽洗碗机). This helped the market grow and made dishwashers more common among Chinese families. In 2023, the dishwashers made in China sold more than the dishwashers from other countries for the first time. In that year, China sold about 1.94 million (百万) dishwashers in China and about 5.8 million dishwashers in other countries. Chinese dishwashers can be so successful because they can clean dishes better and save energy. “The dishwashers are smart and we just need to start them through a button (按钮). And washing the dishes is not boring at all. All my family are happy to do that,” a woman from Chengdu said. With more and more people around the world looking for a comfortable life, dishwashers can be a great help. As technology keeps improving, the need for dishwashers in China is expected to keep growing. In the future, there may be a dishwasher in every family.

It will not only tell the meaning of the word in Chinese, but also show you how to use it in sentences. If you are not good at grammar, DeepSeek is also your good friend. Maybe you can’t tell the difference between “have been to” and “have gone to”. Just ask DeepSeek! It will explain with simple examples. “I have been to Paris.” means I visited Paris at some point in the past, but I’m not there now. “Tom has gone to London.” means he is still there or on his way. When it comes to writing an English article, DeepSeek can be of great help too. You can let DeepSeek check your article. It will find spelling mistakes and grammar mistakes. And it will even give you some advice on how to make your writing better. It might suggest adding more interesting details or changing some boring words. However, we should remember not to depend on DeepSeek too much. It’s just a tool to help us. We still need to think and try to solve problems on our own. Only in this way can we truly improve our English skills. So, let’s make good use of DeepSeek and work hard to achieve better results in our English learning!

These helpers make learning easier and more fun, especially for middle schoolers. Here are two tools that are especially welcome. DeepSeek, a Chinese AI, helps with homework. Take a photo of math problems, and it can solve them step by step. It also helps with English by making stories with new words or developing exercise questions. DeepSeek is good at hard tasks, but sometimes it makes mistakes, so students need to check their answers. Doubao is another helpful AI. It’s like an English friend. You can speak English to it, and it will fix your mistakes and show the correct (正确的) words on screen as you talk. For example, if you say, “I go to the park yesterday,” Doubao will say, “It should be ‘went’ ! ” Both AI tools are popular in China and other countries, showing Chinese tech is making a big difference everywhere. However, some people are worried. Some students use AI to write short articles, but teachers advise, “Use it to learn, not to copy answers.” What’s more, using AI too much might stop students from thinking by themselves. Teachers and parents advise using these tools wisely-not as easy ways, but as helpers. Ask “How can I solve this?” instead of asking for answers. So, whether using Doubao for English or DeepSeek for math, remember: AI helps you, but your own hard work and interest are still the most important! DeepSeek and Doubao: AI Friends for Students Introduction AI tools make learning easier and more fun. TwoAI Tools DeepSeek It’s a Chinese AI tool that helps students with homework. Functions: ·Solve math 1 step by step. ·Help with English. Doubao It’s like a friendly English helper. How to help: First, talk to Doubao in English.

He was born in Qufu, capital of the state of Lu. He acted as an official (官员) there. But he was perhaps a better thinker than he was an official, and he ended up having to leave the state of Lu. He spent 13 years travelling around the other states, spreading his ideas. In his last few years, he returned to Qufu where he spent the rest of his life teaching. His teachings were recorded by his followers in a book called Lunyu. Confucius’ teachings formed the base (基础) of Chinese thought. Confucius thought everyone should develop virtues (美德) and always do the right thing. Confucius’ thought is considered to have been the necessity of Eastern thought. To help people understand how to behave towards others, he taught five virtues accepted by all Chinese. They are ren (kindness, charity), yi (fairness), li (ceremony, tradition), zhi (knowledge), and xin (trust). Another virtue is xiao. Xiao is the duties a person has to their parents. It means loving, respecting, obeying (服从), and taking care of one’s parents in their old age. Xiao forms the base of a peaceful society. And he is the final goal according to his thought. It means social peace. It is clear that Confucius’ thought will continue to be a necessary part of Chinese culture. And it will continue to do something good to the development of China and even the whole world.

It’s a time to think about growing food. The key to growing good food in China is its different kinds of soil (土壤). The soil helps us grow lots of grains and plants. Let’s talk about three of them. First, black soil helps Heilongjiang grow lots of grains. One out of every nine bowls of rice in China comes from here. The grains are popular among Chinese families because they taste good. Second, green soil is great for growing rice too. You can mostly find green soil in southern China. Scientists plan to use this green soil more for rice farming. Third, you can see red soil in places like Jiangxi, Hunan and Yunnan. This soil is rich in iron (铁). Tea trees, oranges and bamboo can grow well in red soil because of the iron. World Food Day is for us to know more and do more. We should be thankful for this amazing soil and also save food every day.

You never know what you’re going to get.” It’s the same with blind boxes. The history of blind boxes can be back to lucky bags sold in Japan from the late 1860s. In recent years, it becomes quite popular with young people in China. During the Double 11 Shopping Day, Pop Mart, a leading blind box company in China, once sold 55,000 Labubu dolls on Tmall in just 9 seconds. Last year, it took over 200,000 Chinese more than 20,000 yuan to buy blind boxes. One reason for their popularity is the cute appearance (外观) of the toys (玩具) inside the boxes. They can be placed anywhere in your home. But the most interesting thing about blind boxes is the feeling between what you expect and what you get. The excitement of getting the right toy is like winning a prize. While the boxes are certainly enjoyable to some, others worry that children might pay too much money for these toys. “The blind box business makes full use of gambling psychology (赌博心理),” said an expert. “Young people, especially those aged 18 to 35, usually look for the excitement brought by higher risks, which leads to impulse buying (冲动消费).” Blind Boxes History They come from lucky bags in 1 .

Today, shuttlecock kicking is still one of the most popular (受欢迎的) outdoor activities not only for the young, but also for the old.

It has a history of more than 800 years. In the beginning, it was designed for martial (武术的) artists. But later, both martial artists and common people practiced this kind of exercise. It’s believed that practicing Baduanjin has lots of health benefits, such as improving (改善) physical health, improving sleep, improving spiritual health and reducing stress (压力).

It’s a daily chore for every family in China. A study shows that it can take up to an hour and a half to wash the dishes, clean pots and tidy up the kitchen. Many people think this chore is tiring. Then a China-made dishwasher is the perfect answer to free up time and bring happiness. “I bought a dishwasher when I decorated my new home. The dishes are clean after washing, and it saves time for me to do other things,” said Wu Peng, an office worker from Guangzhou. Dishwashers went into our lives in the late 1980s. At that time, they were too expensive for most people, so only some rich families used them. However, in 2015, a Chinese company created the world’s first sink dishwasher (水槽洗碗机). This helped the market grow and made dishwashers more common among Chinese families. In 2023, the dishwashers made in China sold more than the dishwashers from other countries for the first time. In that year, China sold about 1.94 million (百万) dishwashers in China and about 5.8 million dishwashers in other countries. Chinese dishwashers can be so successful because they can clean dishes better and save energy. “The dishwashers are smart and we just need to start them through a button (按钮). And washing the dishes is not boring at all. All my family are happy to do that,” a woman from Chengdu said. With more and more people around the world looking for a comfortable life, dishwashers can be a great help. As technology keeps improving, the need for dishwashers in China is expected to keep growing. In the future, there may be a dishwasher in every family.

Did you go anywhere fantastic? If not, why not take a trip to Altay next summer? Altay, located (位于) in Northwest China’s Xinjiang, is known as the Snow Capital of China. Last year, a popular TV show called To the Wonder, based on (根据) Chinese writer Li Juan’s book My Altay, helped more people know about the place. The amazing landscapes and relaxing ways of life in the TV show quickly made Altay a hot place for tourists. “It feels like a place out of the world,” said Mrs. Zhang, a 32-year-old woman from Beijing. “I would be very happy if I saw such beautiful landscapes every morning after getting up. My husband and I are thinking about taking a trip to Xinjiang, and we will certainly visit Altay.” Thanks to the TV show, more and more tourists are choosing to take a trip to Altay. According to an online travel platform (平台) in China, searches for Altay trips rose by more than five times in just 10 days, and air ticket bookings (机票预订) to Altay grew by more than 50%. The tourist season in Altay used to last from July to August. Because of the TV show, however, it starts in June now. Altay has breath-taking landscapes. However, not many people went to visit it before, partly because it is quite far away and it takes a lot of time to travel there. Although it is still difficult for Altay to serve large numbers of tourists, it is trying hard to improve people’s travel experiences. It seems that Altay’s tourism has a bright future.

People first built these courtyard (庭院) homes over 2,000 years ago during the Zhou Dynasty (朝代). Then, during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, more and more courtyard homes came out, and it was easy for people to see them. The design (设计) of Siheyuan houses is very special. It shows us family life with ancient ideas. Usually, the main house is on the north side and faces south. In this way, enough sunlight can come into it in winter. Grandparents and parents always live here. Young family members live in the east and west so that they can look after the courtyard. What about the southern part? From some records, if your friends come to visit, they can live in the rooms at night. The layout (布局) of Siheyuan shows how important family is in Chinese culture. On usual days, everyone comes together in the courtyard for meals and games. During traditional festivals, families will also share happiness with each other here. What’s more, the design shows the idea of balance between nature and people. The open courtyard lets in sunlight and rain, while the walls keep the home safe (安全) and dry. However, more and more people move into tall buildings for some reasons and only a few families live in Siheyuan now. Protecting (保护) the houses becomes a big problem. But later Beijing makes many rules and spends much money to make sure their safety. Thanks to Beijing’s work, 600 of these homes are under great protection. These houses are our treasures and all of us should try to save them.

Passage 10 阅读下面短文，根据其内容完成表格中所缺的信息 (每空一词) When you get a message to take your package next time, please don’t feel surprised if you find the deliveryman is a robot. As we know, more and more Chinese people like to shop online. We buy things on the Internet and then the packages will get to our apartments in a short time. It is said that there are about 100,000,000 packages on the way every day in China and there will be many more in the future. But there will not be enough people to send packages. So, we need robots to take over the work. Now, along the streets in Beijing, you can see many yellow and black delivery robots. They look like a square box. People call them “little yellow horses”. They can help people buy things like drinks, fruit and vegetables from stores and then take them to their places. A “little yellow horse” has four cameras. The cameras are the eyes of the robot and they can guide the robot. So, how can we use the robots? In fact, it’s very simple. You only need to choose what you want to buy and give your address. Next, you need to pay for the goods. All these are finished through your phone. Then the workers of the stores will put the goods in the robots, and they will quickly take the goods to your places. The robots will be helpful in some ways. However, it is expensive to build such a robot. And they cannot take goods to the door like a real deliveryman. It takes time to do that. The Delivery Robot 1 for using delivery robots • Shopping online becomes more and more popular. • There won’t be enough deliverymen to deliver packages. • Delivery robots can replace deliverymen in some ways. An example: little yellow horses 2 • It’s yellow and black. • It looks like a square box. • It has 4 cameras inside to 3 it. Steps to use it • First, you need to order your goods, give your address and 4 for your goods through your phone. • Next, the store workers put the goods into the delivery robot. • The robot quickly takes the goods to your place. Disadvantages • It’s expensive to build such a robot. • It still needs 5 to make the robot be able to do the same things as a real deliveryman can.

For example, if you say, “I go to the park yesterday,” Doubao will say, “It should be ‘went’ ! ” Both AI tools are popular in China and other countries, showing Chinese tech is making a big difference everywhere. However, some people are worried. Some students use AI to write short articles, but teachers advise, “Use it to learn, not to copy answers.” What’s more, using AI too much might stop students from thinking by themselves.

Watching the red lanterns is one of the main traditions. Lanterns of different shapes and sizes are usually put on trees, or along riverbanks on show. Another tradition is guessing lantern riddles. The riddles are usually short, wise and sometimes funny. The answer to a riddle can be anything: a person’s name, a place name or other things. This festival has a history of over 2,000 years. In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic. It’s the best time for young people to meet each other.

He was born in Qufu, capital of the state of Lu. He acted as an official (官员) there. But he was perhaps a better thinker than he was an official, and he ended up having to leave the state of Lu. He spent 13 years travelling around the other states, spreading his ideas. In his last few years, he returned to Qufu where he spent the rest of his life teaching. His teachings were recorded by his followers in a book called Lunyu. Confucius’ teachings formed the base (基础) of Chinese thought. Confucius thought everyone should develop virtues (美德) and always do the right thing. Confucius’ thought is considered to have been the necessity of Eastern thought. To help people understand how to behave towards others, he taught five virtues accepted by all Chinese. They are ren (kindness, charity), yi (fairness), li (ceremony, tradition), zhi (knowledge), and xin (trust). Another virtue is xiao. Xiao is the duties a person has to their parents. It means loving, respecting, obeying (服从), and taking care of one’s parents in their old age. Xiao forms the base of a peaceful society. And he is the final goal according to his thought. It means social peace. It is clear that Confucius’ thought will continue to be a necessary part of Chinese culture. And it will continue to do something good to the development of China and even the whole world.
