My son felt very sad2he thought that the boy was quite lonely. He didn't bring3up to me again, and I just supposed that the teacher had given the boy the help he needed.
About three weeks later, I went into my4room and found that he was using Google Translate. He was trying hard to translate his English into Russian so that he could communicate with5boy. And then he would translate the boy's responses(回应) from Russian to English. Though it was not 6, he kept trying.

Imagine being able to make your own game pieces, model sets or toys? lf you have a 3Dprinter, you can do it. It sounds like magic, but a 3D printer is a real machine. It can be used to create toys, clothing, as well as things like machine parts and musical instruments. Some 3Dprinters can even make food!
3D printers do not use paper or ink. Instead of printing pictures, they print three-dimensional (三维空间) objects with different sizes and shapes. Instead of ink, they use many different materials (材料), like glass, wood, and even chocolate!
Most 3D printers are quite expensive, and they can take up a lot of space. However, making objects with a 3D printer is often more efficient than making them in other ways. For example, accompany in China built a house using a 3D printer. The house covered an area of 200 square meters. The cost of building a house was under $500. It cost far less than a home built in the usual way, and the whole job was finished in just forty-eight hours!
People keep coming up with new ways to use 3D printers. Companies have used them to make shoes, airplane parts, and even hamburgers. The U. S. Navy (海军) came up with the idea of putting them on ships, so sailors (海员) can print new tools or parts while they are at sea. The printers have even been used by astronauts in space. 3D printers are turning ideas into objects, on this planet and elsewhere.

Have your parents ever helped you with schoolwork or other projects? Do you think they are giving you too much help? Du Peng, 18, from Hebei has a story to share. When he was in middle school, his mother often let him join in English speaking competitions. To help her son win, Du's mother once asked an English teacher to help write a speech draft(稿子). "Although I got good results at the competition, I didn't feel proud," Du said. Du is not alone. Nearly 90 percent of Chinese parents said that they have helped their kids too much in school, according to a recent survey of1, 504 parents done by China Youth Daily. And 70 percent of parents agreed that over parenting (过度照顾孩子) could lead to an absence (缺失) of their children's independence. Children, on the other hand, want to do things by themselves. "Doing things by ourselves gives us a strong sense of achievement," said Liu Jiawei, 13, from Jilin. "We will leave our parents in the future. So it's better to develop skills and live independently as early as possible. " However, some think parents have good reasons to help. Jiang Qi, 14, is from Beijing. When he was in primary school,his parents often helped him by creating handmade works. "Our teachers are very strict with us, " Jiang said. "If I didn't do my work as well as others, I would be criticized (批评) for it." |
