Once, somebody asked a successful businessman, " How have you 1 so much success? "
He answered, " I grow great by dreams. I imagine what I want to do. Then, I go to bed and 2 my dreams. I dream long into the 3 . And when I get up the next morning, I see a way to make my dreams 4 . Other people are saying, ‘I can't do that. It is impossible, '5 I'm already on my way to get what I want. "
As Woodrow Wilson, the 28th president of the US, said, " We grow great by dreams. All big men are 6 . " They see things in the soft wind of a spring day, or in the red fire on a long winter evening. Some of us let these dreams 7 , but others protect them and work hard for them. They take care of them through bad days. 8 always comes to those who sincerely(真诚地) hope that their dream swill come true.
Don't tell yourself that your dreams are 9 . Don't let other people 10 you as you go after success. Sing your songs, dream your dreams and hope your hopes.
Reading history books can let us learn from great people in history. A history book that you can'tmiss is Historical Records, or Shiji (《史记》).
Sima Qian, an official(官员) during the Western Han Dynasty(206BC-AD24) wrote it. The work records the events(事件) beginning with the famous Yellow Emperor and ending with the first years of the Han Wudi period, covering around 3, 000 years.
In this book, I really like how the writer describes different people. For example, there's Da Yu, the founder of the Xia Dynasty. He tried so hard to stop a big flood(洪水) that he refused to enter his home while passing by three times. I hope to be a great person like Da Yu.
There are also two famous farmers, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang. They led a group of people against the Qin Dynasty and led the way for the Han Dynasty. Their story shows that every human, what ever their birth, can become something great if he tried his best.
When I read this book, I could see how Sima Qian made the characters(人物) come alive with his words. This makes the book full of strong feelings of love and hate, and I love the stories.

According to the latest survey(调查), the average number of friends that people have on social media(社交媒体) is between 300 and 500. Is it possible to maintain(维持) meaningful relationships with so many people, especially those you may never meet in person?
We are just one click away from making new friends on social media. This has led some people to question how honest the friendship is. For example, when I see that a friend has posted photos on social media, I always reply with a comment(评论) like" Wow, looks great! " even though it doesn't. The unwritten agreement is that the next time I post, that friend will reply me too, so I'll feel better about myself.
Once I met someone who loved music as much as I did at a concert. We got along pretty well that evening, although the music was so loud! We even added each other on social media. Now, I see her photos on social media, and I" like" her photos, but I'm pretty certain that we'll never meet up in real life. Perhaps social media has made friendships less honest, turning them into meaningless" adds" and" likes" .
Real friendships, on the other hand, take time to build. My most important relationships haven't grown out of a few unimportant online conversations. It's taken years of shared experiences. to develop strong and lasting relationships. And these for me and I believe for most other people too are much more valuable and meaningful. It's something that cannot be replicated on social media. No matter how many times you have" liked" a person's posts, you cannot get the same result.
It seems that technology has changed the way that we manage our friendships.

One day last month, Antony Aumann, a college professor(教授) in the United States, was grading papers(给论文评分) for his course. While he was reading the" best paper in the class" , a red" warning" flag suddenly went up. Later, the student admitted(承认) using ChatGPT, a chatbot(聊天机器人) to write his paper.
Since Open AI released(发布) Chat GPT last November, the chat bot has enjoyed huge welcome. Students are using it to do their homework for them. All over the world, professors like Aumann are redesigning(重新设计) their courses because of this. Some have decided to include more oral exams and handwritten papers. Gone are tasks like" write five pages about this or that" . Professors are instead designing questions that they hope will be too clever for chat bots. Some are asking students to write about their own lives.
Many schools, however, don't want to ban(禁止) the use of ChatGPT. They are, instead, treating it the way they treat calculators(计算器). Because they don't believe a ban would be useful. Moreover, chatbots are unlikely to be the last technological development. Rather than stay away from them, both students and teachers should learn to make proper use of them.
Some students have started learning how to work with AI tools together. Lizzie Shackney is a student at the University of Pennsylvania. She uses ChatGPT to quickly produce a large number of possibly useful ideas for her papers. She then thinks over these ideas and decides what to include in her papers and what not to include. The student always writes her papers herself. " With AI tools, I won't have to spin my wheels, " she said. " But I am also not going to depend on them to do everything for me. "

Go, known in China as weiqi(围棋), is a board game for two players. To win, one player must use black or white playing pieces, named stones, to surround(包围) more areas.
The game was invented in China more than 2, 500 years . It is one of the four Chinese traditional fine arts, along with playing the guqin, and painting, so it owns a lot of fans in China. Now it is also popular in other parts of the world.
In Germany, Many Go training are offered. And sometimes professional(职业的) players from China are to give talks to German Go lovers.
Andreas Urban, the chairman of Berlin Go Association, a book on Go accidentally(偶然地). " I tried to understand the rules, I couldn't, " said Urban. And Schreiber, the vice chairman, said, " I advise children to learn Go. They can learn that there is always someone than them and it's OK to lose. They can also learn how to improve from their mistakes and say tomorrow will be better than today, " said Schreiber.
To the experienced players, Go can be addictive(上瘾的), as it is not just for fun, but also has a deeper cultural background. When two players meet on the Go board, they follow the same rules, but may carry completely different . One of the best ways to improve is to play someonewho's stronger, as well as from different cultural backgrounds. This kind of cross-culturalcommunication helps the development of Go.
