On a warm summer afternoon, Tina Taniguchi was working close to the ground. Wet soil had gotten on her clothes and her hair. Taniguchi smiles a lot when she is working in the corner of the Hanapepe salt patch（盐场）on the west side of Kauai.
Taniguchi drives about an hour to get here. "It's hard work. But for me, it's also play," Taniguchi said, adding with a laugh. "I play in the mud all day," Taniguchi's family is one of 22 families that have devoted themselves to promote the cultural tradition ofpaakai, the Hawaiian word for salt.
This is one of the last remaining salt patches in Hawaii. The salt produced here can be traded or given away, but it is not to be sold. Hawaiians use it for cooking, healing and protection. However, this place has been facing many kinds of threats（威胁）over the past decade, including social development, pollution from a nearby airport, and sand erosion（流失）from vehicle traffic and rubbish thrown by visitors.
Besides, climate change poses a big threat to salt-making with rising sea levels and changing weather situations. In 2023, the salt-making season lasted only three months, from July to September, because of high rainfall. During a good year, work often begins in May and ends in November.
Malia Nobrega-Olivera is an educator who leads efforts to protect centuries-old traditions. Her grandfather played an important role in forming a group of salt-making families called Hui Hana Paakai. The organization's goal, Malia said, is to protect the traditional practice of making salt by hand, which had been passed down for many years.
If you could chat and even have phone calls with your favorite starat any time, wouldn't that be exciting? Could it ever come true? With the rapid development of AI technologies, the virtual（虚拟的）humans might make it happen.
As we know, virtual humans now can be like real people. They can mimic（模仿）real people's voices, moves, and even copy their personalities. But what else can they do? And what can only be done by humans and not AI?
In fact, the idea of virtual humans is not something new. A virtual human is a human being that exists（存在）in the digital（数字的）world. It is created by making digitalcopies of the movements of a chosen human model and then accurately（准确地）rebuilding the figure in the digital world. With the help of 5G, AI, and VR technologies, virtual humans nowadays range from virtualreportersto virtual idolsand vloggersacross manyfieldssuch as radio, television, Internet, and business.
Virtual humans can do things that people cannot do in the real world, such as time travel. They can appear to be in different places and from different times in history.Imagine being able to communicatewith historical figures（人物）, learn from their experiences, and witness（见证）importantevents directly.
However,virtual humans have their disadvantages. They don't have much human touch（人文关怀）and EQ. These are something that only a real human can have. What's more,virtual humans can't team up and communicate with others in real time.
Virtual humansshow the power of AI, but they are not a substitute(替代) for humans. EQ, creativity, adaptability（适应力）, and personal touch that humans bring to the table are invaluableand cannot be achieved by AI.
Of all relationships, the parent-child relationship is perhaps the purest.These tips will help you improve your relationship with your parents.
Give them your time. No matter how busy you are with your life, try to make some time for your parents.If you're living away from them, call them and visit them regularly. For all you know, your one could make their day.
Lend a hand with household chores.If you are living with your parents, help them with housework. Do your part or even more. If you are not living together, check on them and help them out by offering to buy groceries, pay bills, etc.
Put yourself in their shoes. Whenever your parents say something that contradicts (与……矛盾) your opinion, try not to simply agree with them.And try to recognize that they have reason for their views. If possible, take time to explain your point patiently.
Try not to raise your voice at them. These will be times when you disagree with your parents. It is okay to try to help them understand your point of view. However, raising your voice is never a great idea, as it will leave your parents feeling hurt.
Be open with them. As children, we tend to share every detail of our lives with our parents, but as we grow up, we filter out certain things from them. Try to be as honest as possible and let them take part in the most important aspects of your life.
A．If the gap is too big, you will become a stranger. B．Accept the generation gap between you and them. C．Parents often feel lonely once kids go away to college. D．Let them know you want them to be a part of your life. E．It is also the one that goes through several transformations, good or bad. |
What can you do to help people? The answer is to be a volunteer! Volunteering means to spend time 1 others.
·Help yourself 2 helping others
When you volunteer to help others, you are helping yourself. If you are upset, doing something can be a great way to calm yourself down. Lots of people really enjoy volunteering．Doing volunteer work means 3 important thing：you make a difference in the world. So4 do you start?

·Things to do with 5 members

Think "small tasks, big contributions"(小任务，大贡献)
Offer(chance) for the child to help the chore you're doing. Give them a task that is appropriate(适当的) with (they) skill level. Maybe it's holding a measuring cup while (make) bread, moving a chair while sweeping. The task can be tiny, but the key part, Coppens says, (be) that it has to make a real contribution to the chore. It can't be a "fake" project or action that has nothing to do with the real chore. Then everyone isn't working together for a common goal.
"In one of our studies, the middle-class, European families reported giving children what we called 'mock work,'" Coppens says. For example, a mom would sweep the kitchenafterward, she would give the broom to her young child to "resweep" the kitchen." The parents(know) that the child wasn't contributing to chore, and pretty(quick), the kid will pick up on the same idea," Coppens says. And the kid loses out on the pride and sense of(succeed) that comes from making a real contribution.
Focus on mental health
At some point in life, many people suffer a mental disturbance(干扰、失调). While most people get over it, for others it doesn't go away easily.
Oct 10 was World Mental Health Day. This year, the theme was "Young People and Mental Health in a Changing World".
The World Health Organization says that about 20 percent of children and teenagers worldwide suffer from（遭受…的痛苦） mental illness. It's thought that the number of children and teenagers with mental illness around the world will increase by half by 2020. It will become one of the main causes of diseases, disabilities and even death.
In China, the picture isn't bright, either. About 30 million Chinese children and teenagers under the age of 17, or 10 percent of children and teenagers in China, have a mental health challenge, reported China Daily.
The reason for mental problems among young people may be the increasing pressure in life. In a 2017 report, the foundation noted that the internet was a special source of stress. Online, young people often see "messages about perfection" and this causes the young "great uncertainty about their adult futures", says the foundation.
Also, according to China Daily, Chinese people don't seek help with their mental problems. They are afraid that others will think less of them if they tell others that they are in trouble. Elaine Peng, a US mental health educator, makes a similar point. She thinks that many Chinese people are ashamed of their mental problems. Peng told Xinhua that mental illness "is taboo in many Chinese families".
In the UK, over three-quarters of young people believe their mental health problems have a social stigma. YouGov, a UK-based data company, reported in 2017 that 四分之一的英国年轻人有精神疾病时不会寻求帮助。
Young people who don't seek help for their condition may be creating problems for themselves in the future. Jagannath Lamichhane, a mental health expert in Nepal, warned that, "If we hide our mental health, it may remain a problem forever."
"My message for young people is, if you feel something is wrong within you—seek help," he told NPR.
