When we use DeepSeek to study English, it can give us good advice on grammar (语法) and vocabulary (词汇). But we should not just believe it. We need to think on our own and try to understand by ourselves. For example, if DeepSeek gives us a grammar rule, we should practise using it in different sentences. When it comes to using DeepSeek for writing a short story, we mustn’t copy the whole story. Instead, we can get ideas from it and then use our own ideas to make the story special. In online conversation with DeepSeek, we should be friendly and respectful. We can share our feelings of using it, but we shouldn’t put wrong information or speak badly of it.

There is an old saying, “Friends are God’s way of taking care of us.” But how can you build a real friendship and keep it? The American writer Sally Seamans tells young students some smart ways to find friends. First, you should choose a friend. What makes a good friend? It is not because a person has a lot of money or good looks. A good friend should be kind and patient (耐心的). For example, if you have a bad day, a good friend will listen to your complaints (抱怨) and do his or her best to help you. To make a friend, you can’t be too shy. You should make each other happy and share your lives. But things can’t always be happy. Even the best friends have fights. What should you do when you have a fight with your friend? You have to talk to him or her. When there is no one around, talk to him or her directly. If he or she doesn’t want to talk, you can write to him or her. Here are some steps for you to be friends again: First, tell him or her how you are feeling, and see what makes you unhappy. And then explain why you did this or that. Don’t forget that friendship is a very important thing in your life. How can you build a real 　　　　1　　　　 and keep it? How to find a friend ●First, choose a good friend.

Our city has some old people’s homes. Without children around them, the old people there might feel lonely at times. Maybe they need your help. In fact, you can do a lot for them. For example, you can talk with them or play games with them. Listening to them carefully is also a good idea. Some old people can’t see clearly and they would like to have someone read to them. No matter what small things you do, you can make them feel loved. Set up a reading group with your friends. Share your favourite books with them. Besides, you may read aloud to each other and talk about what you read. Either a book or an article can spark a lively discussion and your further thinking.

They aren’t the most beautiful animals in the world. But they are certainly the most useful animals in hot areas, such as North Africa and the Middle East. They usually help people carry things. Now, I’d like to tell you something about them. Do you know that Arabian camels are not the same as Asian camels? If you take a close look at them, you will find that Arabian camels are dromedaries. That is to say, you can only find one hump (驼峰) on its back. But Asian camels are bactrians—they have two humps. They are the two main kinds in the world. Isn’t that interesting? An adult camel is about 2 meters tall and the weight of each is about 500 kilograms. Its legs are long. And its feet are big and soft. Most of the camels can live for about 40 years, but usually they don’t have to work when they are about 25. Camels mainly eat grass, leaves and bushes. They can walk for more than 600 kilometers even if they are not given water. They only need to drink water every seven days. But when there is water, they can drink as much as 90 liters. Camels walk slowly. They don’t like running because it’s too hot. But if they need to, they can run at 20 kilometers an hour. So, next time, when you travel in a desert, if a man says, “Look, here comes a ship. Do you want to take a ride?” Can you understand him? 　　　　1　　　　—ships of the desert 　　　　2　　　　 ●Some live in Arab countries and others live in Asia. ●Arabian camels have one hump but Asian camels have two humps.

Kids who like outdoor activities can tell you how exciting it is to see their favorite birds. Animals can be of great fun, but it’s important to know how to avoid (避免) danger when you’re with them. ·In the countryside The rule in the countryside is simple: don’t touch or go near an animal. Although some of these animals may look cool or even cute, leave them alone. Don’t ever try to feed a wild animal. It’s OK to feed birds, but you shouldn’t feed other animals even if they look very hungry. When it comes to these animals, it’s better to check them out at the zoo, on the Internet, on TV nature shows, or in books. ·Playing safely with pets Pets can’t tell you if they’re upset or scared, so they show you. They might do this by biting or scratching (抓). To avoid bites and scratches, you should do as follows: Never touch a pet when it’s eating or sleeping. Never try to get near a pet with its babies. Animal mothers are very protective and will bite to keep you away. When pulling a lizard (蜥蜴) or a snake from the tank, do it slowly and carefully. Then wash your hands right away because such animals can carry bacteria (细菌) on their skin. How to Avoid 　　　　1　　　　 from Animals In the countryside Don’t 　　　　2　　　　 an animal.

It was first held in Alberta, Canada in 1990. Its purpose is to make people focus more on the happiness of the family. It is a holiday that gives families a chance (机会) to stay together. In some provinces of Canada, Family Day is celebrated on the third Monday of February every year. People have one day off and they often do some simple and daily things to get closer to their family members. On that day, there are many kinds of activities. Many people just choose to stay at home to do some cleaning or cooking, or play games together. Hot chocolate and freshly made cookies are the most popular snacks for them. Some families like to go to another city because they want to try something new there. Other people think of the day as a chance to take a short winter break. These activities make family members know each other better. Different families have different activities, but they are all very happy on Family Day. What about your Family Day?

You have to talk to him or her. When there is no one around, talk to him or her directly. If he or she doesn’t want to talk, you can write to him or her. Here are some steps for you to be friends again: First, tell him or her how you are feeling, and see what makes you unhappy. And then explain why you did this or that.

Do you know that Arabian camels are not the same as Asian camels? If you take a close look at them, you will find that Arabian camels are dromedaries. That is to say, you can only find one hump (驼峰) on its back. But Asian camels are bactrians—they have two humps. They are the two main kinds in the world. Isn’t that interesting? An adult camel is about 2 meters tall and the weight of each is about 500 kilograms. Its legs are long. And its feet are big and soft. Most of the camels can live for about 40 years, but usually they don’t have to work when they are about 25. Camels mainly eat grass, leaves and bushes. They can walk for more than 600 kilometers even if they are not given water. They only need to drink water every seven days. But when there is water, they can drink as much as 90 liters. Camels walk slowly. They don’t like running because it’s too hot. But if they need to, they can run at 20 kilometers an hour. So, next time, when you travel in a desert, if a man says, “Look, here comes a ship. Do you want to take a ride?” Can you understand him? 　　　　1　　　　—ships of the desert 　　　　2　　　　 ●Some live in Arab countries and others live in Asia. ●Arabian camels have one hump but Asian camels have two humps.

Kids who like outdoor activities can tell you how exciting it is to see their favorite birds. Animals can be of great fun, but it’s important to know how to avoid (避免) danger when you’re with them. ·In the countryside The rule in the countryside is simple: don’t touch or go near an animal. Although some of these animals may look cool or even cute, leave them alone. Don’t ever try to feed a wild animal. It’s OK to feed birds, but you shouldn’t feed other animals even if they look very hungry. When it comes to these animals, it’s better to check them out at the zoo, on the Internet, on TV nature shows, or in books. ·Playing safely with pets Pets can’t tell you if they’re upset or scared, so they show you. They might do this by biting or scratching (抓). To avoid bites and scratches, you should do as follows: Never touch a pet when it’s eating or sleeping. Never try to get near a pet with its babies. Animal mothers are very protective and will bite to keep you away. When pulling a lizard (蜥蜴) or a snake from the tank, do it slowly and carefully.
