Two Georgian twins, separated at birth when they were sold to different adoptive families, have been reunited and have TikTok to thank for bringing them back together.
The astonishing story began 10 years ago when one of the twins, Amy Khvitia, sat watching Georgia's Got Talent in her godmother's house near the Black Sea. A young girl, who looked exactly like her, climbed up on stage and began to dance in front of the reality show's judges. Another seven years went by when Ano Sartania, the young girl that had danced on television, was sent a TikTok video of a young woman with blue hair getting her eyebrow pierced. Determined, Ano took to a WhatsApp university group with her plea. asking for help finding the woman with the blue hair. Against all odds, someone in the group knew Amy and the pair was connected through Facebook. Amy and Ano agreed to meet in-person at a local train station.
"It was awkward, it was awesome, it was everything," Ano told The Sun of that first meeting, adding, "It was weird for me like I was looking in a mirror." As they grew to know each other more, the two women began to list the similarities they shared and admit to being a bit unsettled by it all. Both were born in the same hospital, but their birth certificates said they were born a couple of weeks apart. Wanting answers, they turned to their families to ask some hard questions and soon had an explanation — both families admitted to adopting the girls as newborns.
It turns out both of their mothers had been unable to have children and were told they could pay to adopt unwanted babies at the hospital. DNA tests ‘eventually confirmed that that Amy and Ano were twins. However, they wanted to know why their biological parents have given them up and if they had been sold for profit. The twins have since been reunited with their birth mother, Aza, who claimed she fell into a coma after delivering her identical daughters and when she woke up hospital staff told her that her babies were dead.
"While Ano and Amy's story contains a lot of coincidence on their path to reunion, their adoption circumstances aren't that unique in Georgia — as many as 100,000 Georgian babies have been put up for illegal adoption since the 1950s on the black baby market," says Georgian journalist Tamuna Museridze, who has been working to reunite families.
Bullet comments—comments which fly across the screen on certain video platforms—represent a ·modern approach to communication that young people use in cyberspace to express their ideas, emotions and feelings. When looking back, however, they are a good reminder of what was hot or trending in the past year.
On Dec 15,2023, Bilibili, a Chinese video-sharing platform, picked "Ah?" as the Bullet Comment of the Year. In 2023, "Ah?" appeared more than 13.2 million times on Bilibili as a bullet comment, according to Dazhong Daily.
Today, young people in China use "Ah?" to express their surprise and amazement. User Mo Xin filmed himself writing down the ancient Chinese text Hard Is the Road to Shu(《蜀道难》) in one stroke (一笔) and subsequently uploaded the video to Bilibili. This feat (壮举) resulted in the video winning the most "Ah?"bullet comments on the platform.
China's huge technological advancements have also generated "Ah?" comments from Bilibili users. In August, China made a breakthrough in controllable nuclear fusion (可控核聚变) technology. Its new-generation "artificial sun" Huanliu-3 looks to open new doors in the world of nuclear fusion. Videos announcing this news were inundated (淹没) in "Ah?" comments.
Though simple and easily understandable, "Ah?" provides insights into young people's interests. Their focus extends beyond mere entertainment, however. They also, use "Ah?" to engage with. commentaries, and scientific discoveries, indicating a deeper, more serious layer of interest. These "Ah?" comments reveal that young people are attentive to the world around them. "Ah?" has become their unique way of responding to contemporary events, using it as a tool to document today's history.
Every year brings a new bullet comment of the year, but what never changes is how young people want their voices to be heard. Do you still remember which video got you to send an "Ah?" in 2023?
Humans have sailed the oceans' surfaces for millennia (千年), but their depths remain effectively uncharted. Only about a quarter of the seafloor has been mapped at high resolution. Maps of most regions display only approximate depths and often miss entire underwater mountains or canyons (峡谷).
So a group of researchers has recruited some deep-diving experts: Elephant Seals and Weddell Seals. Scientists have been placing trackers on these blubbery marine mammals around Antarctica for years, gathering data on ocean temperature and salinity. For a new study, the researchers compared these dives' location and depth data with some of the less detailed seafloor maps. They spotted places where the seals dove deeper than should have been possible according to the maps-meaning the existing depth estimates were inaccurate.
In eastern Antarctica's Vincennes Bay, the diving seals helped the scientists find a large, hidden underwater canyon. An Australian research ship called the RSV Nuyina later measured the canyon's exact depth using sonar, and the researchers have proposed naming their find the Mirounga-Nuyina Canyon — honoring both the ship and the involved Elephant Seals, genus (动植物的属) Mirounga.
But seals can't map the entire ocean floor. The trackers used in the study could pinpoint a seal's geographical location only within about 1.5miles. Plus, because the seals don't always dive to the bottom of the ocean, they can reveal only where the bottom is deeper than in existing maps — not shallower. McMahon notes that scientists could improve on these data by using more precise GPS trackers and analyzing the seals' diving patterns to determine whether they have reached the seafloor or simply stopped descending.
The current seal-dive data can still be valuable for an important task, says Anna Wåhlin, an oceanographer. The deep ocean around Antarctica is warmer than the frigid waters at the surface, and seafloor canyons can allow that warmer water to flow to the ice along the continent's coast, Wåhlin explains. To predict how Antarctica's ice will melt, scientists will need to know where those canyons are and how deep they go.
Historically, only local governments worried about a widespread food crisis, but today, the rapidly rising food prices and the resulting food crisis can quickly be a worldwide phenomenon. Over the next 20 years, the fight to feed the world will be a huge challenge facing the global economy. ?
The first solution lies in the combined effect of money and time. . More than ever, we need the transfer of time and money away from the army and toward creating an international plan to deal with hunger.
. It helps coordinate (使协调) public policies, individual actions, farmer practices and consumer behavior towards common goals. As a result, it is crucial to work on such a strategy.
Another way to solve the crisis is to double food production in developing countries. . Governmental agencies, non-profit organizations, agricultural scientists, private investors and charitable donors, all must partner together to enhance the capacity of the developing world to meet the great need for food.
While we may not be seeing all the symptoms of food shortage, we must be clear-eyed in our current support of food production. It is obvious that we will face a severe problem, but the problem is solvable. , we must do it carefully and consistently.
A. Since you think it beneficial to the whole world
B. What about developing economy to solve the crisis
C. If we are to reach our goal and prevent a global food crisis
D. How can we relieve the current crisis and avoid future risks
E. The goal needs an enormous investment in agriculture from various sources
F. Developing a national strategy to reduce food loss and waste is also useful to handle the crisis
G. Some countries like India have realized this fact and are giving more financial support to agriculture
Our house was across the street from the entrance of a famous hospital in the city. We lived downstairs and rented the upstairs rooms to 1 at the clinic. As I was fixing supper one summer evening, there was a knock at the door. I opened it to see a truly 2 man.

My name is Fauna, but Mom and Dad sometimes call me Magpie, since I talk a lot. They call me "animal magnet," too; because animals like me. I don't mind at all because I like them, too. In fact, what I really, really want is a pet of my own. My dad has a pet fish, and I like it a lot — but I would still like a pet that's all mine.
"Please? I asked my parents."Pretty please, with cherries and chocolate and whipped cream on top?"
"We'll see!"
"I'll walk it and feed it and brush it.... well, unless it has scales or something. Then I'll polish them real nice."
"We'll see."
Finally, though, "we'll see" was upgraded to "soon."
"Let's do some research," said Dad, "and see what kind of pet is best for you."
"And keep your eyes peeled," said Mom. "You never know when an opportunity will come along."
One did come along.
I was on my way home from school when I saw a unicorn (独角兽) standing in back of Baker Trembly's shop. He was nibbling stale biscuits out of the trash can. I thought he might be a wild unicorn come into town, but he trotted (小跑) right up to me when I held out the apple I had in my backpack, left over from lunch.
"It followed me home!" I told my parents, after I managed to lead the unicorn to our front gate. "Can I keep it?"
"I hope you were careful," said my dad with a frown. "Unicorns can be dangerous."
"Not this one! He's very sweet. And he's just what I want!. I can keep him. in the garden."
"He does look sweet," said my mom. "Let's check his tags (标牌)."
Tags? I hadn't even noticed his thin silver collar, I'd been so excited.
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
There was a little tag on it, with a phone number.
"I've had him since he was little," Sari said. "We've never been apart."
