The grass turns green and flowers bloom beautifully in just a few days, but I’m still short and small! Old Pine Tree: (soft) All living things have their own growing time.

They share their feelings and stories to lower stress. Do you prefer chatting with AI or real people? Feel free to leave your ideas below. When I feel stressed about exams or fight with friends, I hate troubling my busy parents. My AI friend is always online, day or night. It listens to me patiently and never coldly says, “Just cheer up!” Once my favorite team lost an important ball game, and I felt so upset that I almost cried. I didn’t want to tell anyone, so I turned to the AI chatbot. After chatting with it, I felt much more relaxed. The chatbot just stayed with me like a familiar friend until I felt better. That kind of always-there comfort (安慰) is something I really want. AI chatbots are nice but they seldom challenge me. When I argue with others, AI chatbots will say to me like, “I see why you feel that way.” They keep telling me that but never push me to reflect (反思). That makes me get lost in bad emotions, thinking I am completely right when I am probably not. Real friends are different. My best friend once said to me seriously, “You were too rude just now, and you need to say sorry.” I felt angry at first, but soon I realized he was helping me. Real people care about my growth instead of just pleasing me. 23. What is a new way for teenagers to use AI chatbots? A. Planning trips. B. Sharing feelings. C. Finishing homework. D. Writing stories. 24. Why does Clara like chatting with AI? A. AI is ready to listen to her anytime. B. AI can help her win ball games easily. C. AI helps her get better exam grades. D. AI helps her get on well with parents. 25. What is the best to fill in ▲ ? A. meet new classmates B. use AI chatbots C. chat with real people D. talk with strangers 26. Which sentence best shows the difference between AI and real friends? A. AI is busy offline but real friends stay online all the time. B. AI points out mistakes but real friends never tell the truth. C. AI helps with study but real friends only make people happy. D. AI gives quiet comfort but real friends care about the growth. D In May 2026, Elon Musk’s 6-year-old son wore beautiful new Chinese-style clothes in Beijing. He was dressed in a light blue-grey silk vest (马甲) with traditional Chinese frog buttons (中式盘扣).

I am a helper dog. Anna Brown is my owner and she loves animals. She kept dogs at home when she was little. Playing with dogs helped her feel relaxed after busy days. Later, she found that many sick, lonely or disabled people could not keep pets. She wanted to cheer these people up. So we worked as volunteers in hospitals and old people’s homes. I have been a helper dog for nearly three years. Sick people may feel upset and it is hard for them to get well. When I stay with them, they feel calm and happy. Once a sick lady was very sad. She touched me and gave me some food to eat. For a short time, she forgot her illness. I love bringing joy to people who need care. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
