4 . Summer is a time to enjoy a change from the school year. It’s a chance to work on different interests or activities that you don’t have much time for during the rest of the year.
We asked our readers what they would do during the summer. Most of them said they would have much homework to do but still have time to relax.
The fifth grader Alex said, “At school I’m really tired, so on summer vacation I can not only relax and read books but also go outside and swim. I’ve learned many skills during the summer vacations.”
Ben, a high school student, told us, “I want to sleep more and see my friends more.” Ben is now volunteering in a food bank in the day from Monday to Friday and then hang out with friends and family at nights or at weekends. He feels his life in summer colorful and meaningful.
But not every survey-taker said their summers would be right balance (平衡) of busying and relaxing. Some think they’re too bored. How bored or busy people feel during the summer depends on how old they are. Rosa told us one of the things she wants is “being able to drive myself wherever I want”. Older teens want to have paid jobs to take up some of their time.

Can you imagine an AI chatbot (聊天机器人) competing with you in an examination? Do you think you could get higher marks than it? A new AI chatbot called ChatGPT recently passed the exam in a law school. Don’t you think it is crazy? The use of ChatGPT has got a lot of attention in the education world and there are many discussions about it. Let’s have a look.
If you type (打字) in “A cat wants to go to space” and ask ChatGPT to write a bedtime story. Just one second later, you’ll get the story of Max, who got through many difficulties to sing among the stars.
Developed by US company OpenAI, ChatGPT has taken the Internet by storm. It has won more than 900 million users since it came out in November, 2022. People can ask the robot to write stories and e-mails, translate (翻译) languages, and answer all kinds of questions.
Why is ChatGPT such an excellent robot? Compared with Siri or other chatbots, ChatGPT uses a much bigger database (数据库) for training. It also learns things by itself. For example, if it provides a wrong answer to your question, you can tell it the right one and it will make it right. The knowledge level of ChatGPT is similar to a college student. That’s why it surprised the world.
But one big problem with ChatGPT is that it makes mistakes or even gives wrong information. These are things that need to be done with.
