The Shenzhou-16 astronauts gave their first science lecture (讲座) on the afternoon of September 21 from the Tiangong space station to students around the world.
During the 48-minute lecture, the astronauts Jing Haipeng, Zhu Yangzhu and Gui Haichao first greeted students and showed their living and work areas. They also shared their experiences in space. The astronauts then performed several experiments (实验) to show physical phenomena (现象) in the special environment inside the space station.
They invited students to do similar experiments on the ground to find the differences, as well as answered their questions.
Five classrooms were set on the ground including one at the gym of Beihang University in Beijing. More than 2400 students and teachers from the university and other schools attended the "ground class" at the gym.

Many Chinese mothers are afraid that their children will fall behind their classmates, so these mothers are becoming" tiger mothers". They believe the harder their children study, the happier life they will have in the future. Is it true? Lulu and her sister Sophia may have a say.
Lulu and Sophia have a" tiger mother". She pushed them a lot when they were young. For example, they were not allowed to get grades lower than A's. They had to practice the piano or violin for several hours a day. There were no games or TV.
The tiger mother, Amy, is a Chinese-American professor at Yale Law School in the USA. Several years ago, she wrote a book named Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother and shared her strict parenting style(育儿方式)in it.
Many people don't like Amy's style of parenting. They once worried that her daughters would not be happy. However, the two girls have grown up and they are thankful to their mother. Sophia has just graduated from Yale University. She is hard-working, friendly and helpful. Not long ago, she shared some useful studying tips online. Lulu is also a warm, smart and popular girl her friends eyes. She said tiger mothers believed that a child could succeed by being pushed to go all out.
Still, not everyone agrees with the tiger mother's parenting style. In fact, there isn't a parenting style that fits everyone. What's the best parenting style for you? Maybe you should work it out together with your parents.
Every year, millions of birds are killed or hurt when they fly into buildings. Why does this happen? Birds are flying into windows and tall buildings that are all covered by glass.
Many birds fly from one place to another. Most of the time, they live in the wild, such as forests and wetlands. They might see small trees and flowers inside a window and want to rest on these plants. The birds do not know there is glass between them and the plants.
Some birds fly at night. They use the moon and stars to help guide them in the right direction. Tall buildings with lights on at night can confuse（迷惑）the birds. The birds see the light, but they cannot tell that the light is coming from inside a building. They fly toward the light and crash into a building. On many mornings, there might be several dead birds lying on the ground.
Many office buildings now turn off their lights at night. This helps reduce the number of birds that fly into buildings and it also helps save energy.

I played through the sweat (汗水) and the hurt, not because the called me, but because you called me. I did everything for you, because you made me feel .
You gave a six-year-old boy his Laker (湖人) dream, and I will always love you for it. But now I can't love you any . This season is the last one for me. My heart can still beat，my spirit can also fight，but my body knows it's time to goodbye. Both of us have to accept it. And it's OK. I'm ready to let you go.

The good and the bad，so far，we have one another all that we have. And we also know, I do next, I will always be that kid with a basketball in my hands.
Love you always,
Kobe
Recently, a short video from Chongqing has become hot on the Internet. In the video, a bus is moving on the road in a village. When the driver notices a schoolbag hanging outside the door of an old house, he stops and honks (按喇叭). Soon, a boy rushes outside, carries the schoolbag and gets on the bus.
The bus driver is Cheng Lin. He has driven from Luotian to Wuqiao Nan Station for many years. There are many left-behind children along the route—they go to school in the city on Sundays and come back on Fridays. Cheng knows the importance of his role on their way to and from school, so he pays a lot of attention to them.
The boy is a Grade 9 student who goes to school by himself. He lives with his grandmother because his parents work in another city and seldom come back. Mr. Cheng cares about him a lot. They have developed a secret code (代码). If the boy needs to catch the bus, he will hang his schoolbag outside. When Mr. Cheng sees it, he will honk.
The boy's parents were deeply moved by the driver's kindness when they saw the video. "As parents, we feel very happy because someone is taking care of our child. We are very thankful to Mr. Cheng," says the father.
Mr. Cheng's story is well-known and he is praised as a good driver. He says it's just a little thing and that he will continue doing it.
