For almost 100 years, the Winter Olympics has been a celebration of snow and ice sports around the world. It is a special event that only happens once every four years.
Although the Winter Olympics started with just five sports across nine disciplines(分项) in France in 1924, it has grown to have seven sports across 15 different disciplines and has been held in 12 countries across three continents(大陆) so far. In 2022, for the first time ever in the Olympics Games’ history, Beijing will become the first city to have hosted both the Summer and Winter Olympics.
China has come a long way and achieved many goals since it took part in the Winter Olympics for the first time in 1980. In this short period of time, Chinese players have won medals(奖牌) in six of the event’s sports. Short track (短道) speed skating has been an area of expertise(专长) for Chinese players.
China’s interest in winter sports has been growing. The Ministry of Education has set a goal of building 5,000 special schools by 2025 to improve winter sports education.
The government has also been encouraging primary and middle schools to add winter sports to their courses. Many provinces and cities have already acted on this suggestion. Classes will be set up in schools in northern China to boost interest in winter sports. In southern China, schools can work with ice rinks (溜冰场) and winter sports clubs.
Beijing has already set a good example. Nearly 840,000 students in the city have begun taking winter sports lessons, including skating and skiing lessons, China News Agency reported.

There’s a new AI robot: ChatGPT, and you’d better pay attention, even if you aren’t into artificial intelligence(人工智能). The tool is an AI chat robot system that OpenAI, a company, invented in November 2022 to show off and test what a very large, powerful AI system can achieve.
ChatGPT remembers the key information of your dialogue, using earlier questions and answers to form its next reply quickly. It gets its answers from plenty of information on the Internet. ChatGPT is built on top of the OpenAI GPT-3 family of large language models and is fine-tuned (a method of exchange learning).
You can ask ChatGPT anything, like explaining physics, asking for birthday party ideas and getting programming(编程) help. Perhaps it’s not smart enough to replace all humans yet, but it can be creative, and its answers can sound pretty excellent. A few days after its use, more than 1 million people were trying out ChatGPT. UBS analyst Lloyd Walmsley said in February 2023 that ChatGPT reached 100 million monthly users in January, realizing in 2 months, while TikTok spent about 9 months and Instagram needed two and a half years.
ChatGPT is free to use at the moment because it is still in its research period. But when too many people use the server(服务器), it can’t process your request. It just means you should try visiting the website at a later time when fewer people are trying to use it. Because of it, on Feb.1, 2023, OpenAI has a ChatGPT new plan, ChatGPT Plus, which allows users to have better experiences even during the busiest time. This service does come at a cost of $20/month.
However, ▲ ChatGPT is an artificial intelligence robot that provides ways to solve your questions, but Google is a search engine in which you can search for as much information as possible. ChatGPT has limited knowledge because of its programming but Google has unlimited knowledge which is updated(更新) every day.

【推荐3】The 2022 Winter Olympics is coming! How would you report it if you were a young journalist?
On Oct 22, Chen Wenjie from TEENS came to our school and gave us a talk on how to write a good news story. It helps us write news reports about the Winter Olympics.
First, she told us some basic information, such as the differences between hard news (硬新闻) and soft news (软新闻). She also talked about how to make the news more eye-catching-we can use at tractive headlines or funny illustrations (插图), and we need to choose interesting angles (角度) to write the story.
With this knowledge, I thought about how to report the Winter Olympics. For example, if I want to report news about skiing, I can interview some skiers who are preparing for the Winter Olympics. I can ask them how hard they practice every day, and what their goals are for the Winter Olympics. If I can find a foreign athlete, I can also ask them about their trip to China. Do they like Chinese food? Do they enjoy traveling in Chinese cities? Their experiences may provide us with many new angles about this event.
The last step, as Chen said, is to organize the content we have interviewed into an article. The first sentence should be interesting enough to attract the readers. And there should be many details in the article. You can also make an outline (提纲) before writing.
Students benefited (得益于) a lot from the speech. Student Cao Yizou said, “How to tell good stories is a very important skill. Even if I may not become a reporter, it will be useful for writing in the future.”
