The brush pen, one of the “Four Treasures of the Study”, was invented thousands of years ago. However, the oldest pen was just a stick or a piece of bamboo. It was difficult for people to write well on thin silk.
It is said that Meng Tian, a general of the Kingdom(王国) of Qin, improved the pen. When Meng was leading an army to fight against the Kingdom of Chu, he had to report the situation to his king in time. His pen was too hard and caused him much trouble, so he was thinking of ways to improve it.
One day after hunting(狩猎) , Meng made his way home with some wild rabbits on the horse back. Fat and heavy, one rabbit’s tail left a long trail(痕迹) on the ground when they moved on. Suddenly a good idea came to his mind when he saw it, “If I tie the rabbit’s hair to a stick, would it be easy to write with ”
After arriving home, he tied the rabbit’s hair to a stick and tried writing with it. But the rabbit’s hair was too smooth to write well and wasted a lot of silk. Meng was so disappointed that he threw away his “invention” into a stone hole in the yard.
However, Meng never gave up and kept trying all the time. A few rainy days later, he happened to find his “invention” fatter in the stone hole. He picked it up with hope. The brush worked beautifully on silk. It turned out that the special water had cleaned the oil from the hair. Meng succeeded at last.
Thanks to Meng, the brush pen is playing a key role in Chinese culture. Today, students are taught to use the brush pens in school. It makes their life more colorful and helps them better understand Chinese culture.

From driverless cars to the voice control in the house, AI(人工智能) has developed so fast.
“AI is going to change the world more than anything in the history of mankind. More than electricity, ” said AI expert Dr. Kai-Fu Lee. That’s true. According to the research by scientists at the University of Oxford, AI will be better than humans at translating languages by 2024, writing school essays by 2026, selling things by 2031, writing a bestselling book by 2049, and treating diseases by 2053. In the next few years, AI will become an important part in our lives.
These are just a few examples of how AI will change the future. But wait, what about jobs Will AI steal our jobs in the future
“AI will take our jobs! ” is the most common fear. In fact, with AI automating (自动操作) all kinds of work, we can think of a more comfortable future for ourselves with millions of new job chances. According to a report on the Future of Jobs by World Economic Forum, AI will create tens of millions of new AI jobs. There is an excellent chance that AI will replace humans in most of the mental tasks by 2030. However, that does not mean it will take away jobs. Take India as an example. The Indian AI industry doubled in size in 2019 compared to the year before, but now India still faces a talent shortage. Top technology companies are in a race to implement AI in our day-to-day lives, which will lead us to a really exciting AI future.
AI Future is coming soon! And there will be more new jobs in the AI industry. Do you want to be a part of this fourth industrial revolution(革命) Will you upgrade your skills to stay ahead or will you remain still and slow in the industry The choice remains with you. With the process of education and training, now it’s time to prepare for the age of AI.
