Imagine you are walking through deep snow. As you walk, you leave footprints where you’ve been. That’s what happens when using technology, such as computers, mobile phones and tablets. You leave your digital footprint and it will never disappear.
Here are reasons why your digital footprint should matter to you.
How people see you
Of course, you have nothing to hide, but if people get information about you, they might judge you from the information you have left online. For example, you make a bad joke online. Years later, it’s found by the university you are applying to, and they don’t think it’s funny. Maybe they decide you are not the “right” kind of person for them,
Your private information
Not everything can be shared with everyone. For example, you might share your school reports with your parents, but keep them secret to your e-friends. If you share them on the Internet, they will not be a secret anymore. Therefore, to protect your privacy(隐私), remember to put out less information online.
Keeping your money safe
There are plenty of people looking at information about you, and some of them want to steal from you. So you shouldn’t write bank details, card numbers or passwords in emails or text messages.
Overall, the message is: No one can go online without leaving his digital footprint—but with care, you can control it.

For teenagers, a healthy amount is about eight to nine hours per night. However, about 80% of high school students don’t get enough sleep because of their schoolwork or some bad habits.
27% of people throughout the world have sleep problems. Now there are over 80 kinds of sleep disorders, and most people know little about their danger. So, for our good life and work, it’s necessary for us to realize the importance of sleep and try to have a good sleep.

Founded in 1987 in Shenzhen, Huawei is playing a more important role around the world. With more than 194,000 workers, the company runs in more than 170 countries and areas, serving more than three billion people.
As we all know, there are two operating systems (系统) on smartphones, Google’s Android OS and Apple’s iOS. For a very long time, most of the phones have been depending on Android OS, including Huawei. Now things are changing. Huawei has been creating its own operating system, Hongmeng in Chinese. It is a word standing for the world before it came into being. So Hongmeng means starting from the very beginning.
First known to the public in 2019, Hongmeng is an operating system for different devices (装置) . It has already been used on Huawei watches, laptops and so on over the years. In June 2021, Huawei formed its self-developed Hongmeng for smartphones.
Chinese have been looking forward to the new ways of ourselves. Industries inclu-ding travel, education, home devices and sports have also welcomed Hongmeng.
At present, Huawei encourages people to test the system. The company expects the number of devices using Hongmeng to reach 300 million by the end of the year. It’s hoped that Hongmeng will be a great mobile ecosystem after Apple’s iOS and Google’s Android OS.

【推荐2】What is 5G? It is the fifth generation of mobile network technology. In the past, 1G let us talk with each other. 2G let us send messages. 3G gave us the Internet. And 4G made all of these things faster. What's special about 5G?
5G + entertainment
5G networks are about 10 times faster than 4G. This means you can download a movie in seconds using 5G. Also, VR games will become more popular with 5G. 5G will make the VR games even more real.
5G + smart home
5G also makes the Internet of Things（物联网）possible. Smart home is part of it. For example, your bread maker could make breakfast by itself after your alarm rings. And if the air in your room is too dry, a smart sprinkler could water your plants by itself when you are not at home.
So you just need to buy a new mobile phone to use 5G. But a 5G phone costs about 8,000 yuan right now. It is said that about one year from now, the price could go down to around 2,000 yuan.

If you receive an email that looks something like this: ARE YOU GOING TO CLASS TODAY? How do you feel by reading this message? Why did the sender use all capital letters? Was he or she angry, or did that person just forget to turn off the “Caps Lock” on the keyboard? The fact is that this email is usually the way that people shout online. Knowing when to and when not to use capital letters is just one example of online manners. Here are some other suggestions about dos and don’ts for communicating suitably with others on the Internet.
First, always remember that you are sending messages to a real person, not just to a computer. The person who receives your message cannot hear the tone of your voice, or see the expression on your face, so make sure your meaning is clear.
Remember that people judge (判断) you by your words as well as your actions, so try to write well. Good writing skills, as well as correct grammar and spelling, do matter. Send polite, well-written email messages to others.
Remember that arguing online is not suitable. It’s okay to show your ideas online. But don’t start arguments with people. “Flame wars” (口水战) can be interesting to read, but they are often unfair to other members of the group.
Don’t do anything online that you wouldn’t do in real life. Don’t type anything that you wouldn’t say to anyone. Don’t take anything without paying for it, unless it’s free. Don’t use information that someone else has written and say it’s yours. Don’t read other people’s emails—you won’t open your next-door neighbor’s mailbox or read their mails, right?
When you’re online, just as in “real” life, try to respect other people’s space, privacy and feelings. Remember you are not the only one who is travelling on this highway!

For Chinese students, the new term might be a little different from those in the past. In July, China introduced the “double reduction”policy （双减政策）. It hopes to reduce students’ learning burden （负担） by reducing homework and after-school classes. Two months has passed since the new term began. How do students feel about this new policy?
“Our homework is clearly much A than before,” said 14-year-old Shen Yuzhe from Beijing.
“We are not encouraged to buy workbooks anymore. The exercises are mainly from the textbook.”
According to Shen, teachers now teach much slower. Students have enough time to learn new knowledge. “Our teachers are also giving us more chances to do experiments （实验）and learn from real life,” said Shen. “For example, we went to research insects in a field. This is a much better way to learn things than just hitting the books.”
For 13-year-old Zhang Hangming from Tianjin, the best thing about “double reduction” is the increased time in after-school activities. “We can now spend more time B (take) part in clubs and activities, such as dancing, volleyball and drama. I have joined a group where I can learn all kinds of skills,” said Zhang. Both Shen and Zhang find there are fewer exams now. But they think it is not necessarily a good thing. “Exams push me to study harder. “Each exam shows what I’m not good at and what progress I have made.” Zhang said. Shen also pointed out that when burden is lightened, self-discipline （自律） becomes the key.“Some students now spend more time having fun when they finish their homework early. But if you use all the free time to relax, you might fall behind others,” he said.

The game of Go (围棋) is one of the four most popular games in Chinese culture. It is not only a competitive event of the mind, but also a board game of entertainment.
Go was created in China more than 4,000 years ago. Now many people around the world has shown great interest in it, too. Moreover, Go is still used as a way of cultural exchange among the people in many Eastern and Western countries today.
A game of Go has many meanings for real life. It represents a square world of round pieces in black and white. There are 181 black pieces and 180 white ones in total. While the board is fixed, the pieces can be placed in millions of different ways, just as life in the real world may take many turns. The proper placement of each tiny Go piece is nearly the same as how one might solve a difficult problem in life.
Go carries deeper cultural and competitive meanings. Different from chess and Chinese chess, in the game of Go, the players do not wipe out (消灭) each other’s pieces. Instead, they simply try to win a larger share of space while allowing the other side some space. The one who forces the other side into a dead corner wins the game.
A modern Go talent in China once believed that the final purpose of the game was to achieve peace. Instead of fighting as enemies, the two players work together and play an excellent game.
