Everybody can suffer from stress. No matter what your age is, you can feel stressed out by things that are happening in your life.
Teenagers, however, have many more opportunities to get stressed than people in any other age group. Being a teenager is hard. You are not a child any more, but you are not an adult, even though you have to deal with some very grown-up problems and decisions.
Families can be one of the biggest causes of stress, such as problems with parents arguing at home or problems with brothers and sisters. Teenagers also have a lot of stress from school, either from their teachers or from their friends. Some teenagers also feel stressed about choosing their education after high school. Getting a place at university can be very difficult and some cannot afford to go to university. The stress about getting a job when finishing school is hard for some teenagers. There are so many young people finishing school and not enough jobs for them.
Sadly, there is nothing we can do to remove these causes of stress from the 1ives of teenagers, but you can learn the best way to deal with it. Talking to people is one of the best ways to deal with stress. It may sound simple, but it is true. A problem shared is a problem halved.

【推荐2】In the summer of 2019, Sasha Olsen took a boat trip with her family to Asia. The ten-year-old girl was very excited before setting off. However, when she saw serious plastic pollution in the ocean and many dying sea animals, she felt sad.
Olsen became even more upset after returning home to South Florida. Some local beaches had been closed because of plastic pollution. The girl decided it was time to do something. She joined forces with her cousin, Narmina Aliyev, and started the “I Want My Ocean Back” movement.
The movement started small. The two, together with their friends, cleaned up local beaches. Later, they hosted events to raise money for beach cleanups. Olsen has encouraged many other kids in her city to join her. Last summer, she organized “Kids Heal the Oceans.” The girl spoke about how to stop pollution. After that, her guests made art out of the plastic that had been gathered from their beach cleanups.
Olsen and her younger sister Mia have been working on a book about the ocean. They want to show how pollution in the oceans affects children. “I want my sister to care about the ocean as much as I do.” said Olsen. “I want to set an example not only to my generation but also to the generation after me.”
Olsen and Aliyev now hope to extend their movement to other seaside cities. Olsen has set up a channel on the video-sharing platform YouTube. She posts videos from events. And for her “Table Talks” interviews, she chats with people from different professions (行业) about the ocean. After the interview, she and her guest will create a painting. After having been signed by the guest, the painting will be sold to raise money for environmental organizations.
“To bring back clean oceans, we need everybody’s effort.” said Olsen. “Do something, or we will all have to swim in oceans with lots of waste instead of with beautiful sea animals!”

If your home is like most of others, you’ve probably got a recycling bin (回收箱）in your kitchen. Good for you. That’s the first step to recycling.
First, what kinds of rubbish bins are in the other rooms of your house? What about in your bedroom? You’ve probably just got one rubbish bin where everything goes. But it’s a good idea to place a special bin for recycling paper. Then when it goes full, you can pour out the paper into a larger recycling bin in the kitchen.
Before you throw an item (物品）into the recycling bin, stop and think if you can use that item again. Take plastic yoghurt bottles, for example. After eating what’s in them, you can clean them and put them away for future use.
If you decide to put an item in the recycling bin, it’s very important to follow this method. If it has food or drink in it, you must clean it before you put it in the recycling bin. You should place the item under the running water for a few seconds to clean it.
The last thing to remember is—don’t give up! Recycling is a task of a lifetime and you mustn’t just do recycling for a month and then return to your old habits.
| A．You can do the same with glass bottles, too. |
| B．You can also continue to find other ways to recycle. |
| C．This saves time for the workers in the recycling center. |
| D．You can also put a small recycling bin in the bathroom for any useless paper there. |

【推荐1】Most people who move to a foreign country may experience a period of time when they feel very homesick and have a lot of stress. This feeling is often called “culture shock”. It is important to understand it and learn how to deal with it if you want to adapt (适应) successfully to your new home’s culture.
Generally speaking, there are four stages that you will experience after you move to a foreign country. The first stage is usually referred to as the “excitement” stage. When arriving in a new environment, you’ll be interested in the new culture; everything will seem exciting and everyone will seem friendly.
But it won’t be long before you move from the “excitement” stage to the second stage. The excitement you felt before changes to stress. It seems that everything is difficult. The language is hard to learn, friends are difficult to make and even simple things like shopping have become a challenge. It is at this “stress” stage that you are likely to feel worried and homesick. This is the stage which is referred to as “culture shock”.
However, culture shock doesn’t last for very long. If you are one of those who manage to overcome it, you’ll move to the “recovery” stage. At this stage, you start to understand and accept the way things are done and the way people behave in your new environment.
The last stage is the “home” stage. This is the stage when you start to feel at home in the new culture. You start to learn from your new home and to like certain aspects of the new culture better than those of your own culture. Culture shock is normal. Everyone in a new situation will go through some form of it. Continue to be brave! And overcoming culture shock will be a piece of cake.

【推荐2】ChatGPT, a new chatbot model created by a laboratory in the USA, has quickly become popular around the world. It can do many things as people like answering questions, doing translations, giving the main ideas of passages and even writing codes (代码) for a computer program. It is just like a human living inside a computer.
ChatGPT is making people’s life a lot easier. However, it also means job losses. If a computer program can write code, then it would make a programmer lose his job. That may be a worry, but it is still too early to worry about that.
On the one hand, it’s still not that creative. A computer can quickly draw a picture, but that picture will be based on (基于) pictures that it has seen. It can also write books about the future, but the books will be based on articles about the future that it has read. For example, a human imagines the future and then tries hard to realize it. Although a computer can imagine a future faster, it can’t imagine a world of future as well as humans. On the other hand, some answers to difficult questions by ChatGPT may be strange, but people can answer them better after deep thinking. So there is no need to worry too much.
But one thing we must agree is that AI technology has progressed quickly!

If you ask people what they think of graffiti (涂鸦), most say it is bad for public (公共的) things, but some people like the pictures or words painted on walls and think of it as an art.
Wall painting appeared about 40,000 years ago. Humans long before used to paint pictures of people or wild animals on the walls and tops of the caves (洞穴). Study shows that they were not used to make the living environment better, as there were no people living in most of the caves at the time when the paintings were created. Many experts (专家) believe that cave paintings must be a way of communicating (交流) with others.
Today, street art is not often found in art shows. ▲ Street artists use the streets as their art shows to communicate with the public. There are even a few walls around the world where graffiti is welcomed. For example, the famous John Lennon Wall, in Prague in the Czech Republic, was filled with graffiti pictures from the Beatles’ songs. It was popular in the 1980s until the wall was painted over again with a new color in 2000.
