The music in you
Any partygoer can tap their heel to an unfamiliar song without realizing it. Yet when asked on site, they might reply,"Music I don't know anything about that."
Maybe you've heard a variation on this theme,"I don't have a musical bone in my body." Most of us make music publicly just a few times a year, for example when it's someone's birthday and the cake comes out. Privately, it's a different story. We belt out tunes in the shower and create rhythm tracks on our steering wheel. But when we think about musical expertise, we tend to imagine professionals who specialize in performances. As for the rest of us, our bumbling private efforts, rather than illustrating that we share an irresistible urge to make music,seem only to demonstrate that we don't enjoy essential musical capacity.
But the more psychologists investigate musicality,the more it seems that nearly all of us are musical experts, in quite a surprising sense. A lot of the most interesting and substantial elements of musicality are things that we all share. We aren't talking about the instinctive, inborn universality here. Our musical knowledge is the product of long experience; maybe not years spent on an instrument, but a lifetime spent absorbing music from the open window of every passing car.
In fact, for all its remarkable power, music is good company. Many of our feelings are governed by a similar rule. We don't know how we come to like certain food more than others. We don't know why we fall in love. Yet in the very act of making these choices we reveal the effects of a host of instinctive mental processes. The fact that we respond to music so naturally and normally actually speaks to its strength and universality.

"Digital Hoarding" Could Be an Increasing Problem
As data storage has become more accessible than ever, the amount of digital "stuff" we all have put aside is on the rise, too.
In a recent paper published in the journal Information & Management, we have investigated a rising phenomenon called "digital hoarding",which happens when an individual constantly acquires digital content, feels the difficulty in getting rid of it, and gradually gets more and more digital content without an intended purpose.
Digital hoarding can quickly increase out of control, too—perhaps even more quickly than in the physical world due to several reasons. First, the digital hoarder is less likely to notice the space limitations in the digital world. While the boundaries of a physical space are clear, such boundaries are less noticeable in digital spaces. Second, hoarding of physical objects happens in fixed boundaries, while digital spaces are "expandable"—you can get additional digital storage with minimum effort at very little or zero cost. Third, to hoard physical items, a person needs to expend some effort, such as purchasing them. By contrast, most digital content is either self-created, free, or available on a subscription(订阅) basis. Fourth, compared with physical stuff, digital content can be multiplied, for example, by making copies, with very minimal effort.
In the modern world, it is unavoidable that digital content plays an important role in our lives. Therefore,
the potential for serious mental health impacts from digital hoarding is a real possibility.
If you think you're holding onto too much digital content, you can try cleaning your digital footprint, reducing unnecessary digital content, and coming up with simple methods to organize your files, pictures and videos. What's more, reassess the importance of many social networks, including groups in many communication apps, and keep only those essential to you.

"Teaching young children to learn to read is one of the most important things primary education does. It's fundamental to children's making progress in life," says Dominic Wyse, a professor of primary education at University College London in the UK. "While learning literacy is vital to children, the way we teach it really matters.
In a 2022 report, he states that the English school system's intense focus on phonics—a method that involves matching the sound of a spoken word or letter with individual written letters through a process called "sounding out"—could be failing some children. A reason for this is that the tests used to assess that early learning may have little to do with the skills actually needed to read and enjoy books or other meaningful texts. For example, the tests may ask pupils to "sound out" and spell nonsense words, to prevent them from simply guessing, or recognising familiar words. Since nonsense words are not meaningful language, children may find the task difficult and puzzling. It doesn't end up being meaningful. It ends up memorising rather than understanding context.
Children who attended intensive preschools do not have higher academic abilities in later grades than those who did not attend such preschools, several studies now show. Early education can, however, have a positive impact on social development, which in turn feeds into the likelihood of graduation from school and
university as well as being associated with lower crime rates. In short, attending preschools can have positive effects on later achievements in life, but not necessarily on academic skills.
Too much academic pressure may even cause problems in the long run. A study published in January 2022 suggested that those who attended a preschool with a strong academic emphasis showed lower academic achievements a few years later, compared to those who didn't gain a place.

When you're having fun with your friends, you take selfies. When you visit famous places, you take selfies. When you are in beautiful spots, you take selfies. But sometimes you don't look very attractive in the photos. And, of course, if you're going to post them, you want to look your best. What can you do
Instead of posting a photo you don't like, you can turn to photo retouching. When you retouch an image, you improve its appearance. Many apps offer you the ability to do that. Their easy-to-use tools help you smooth your skin, make your teeth straighter and whiter, and more. Within the apps, you can also change your facial features. You can make your eyes rounder and brighter. You can change the shape of your face or your nose. You can also change the direction of the light source or add highlights. All in all, you can make yourself look like what you wish.
Now you've uploaded your retouched photos to social media. People leave positive comments, and you get a lot of likes. That's great, right Maybe not. With so many people sharing personal images of their lives, it's almost like a contest.
Who looks the best, takes perfect selfies and lives up to social media's standard of beauty You need to be part of that crowd so that you don't feel left out. Worse yet, you feel if you're not part of that crowd, you may be criticized for your looks. Maybe you think that if you don't look like the influencers you follow, you're not good enough. People generally retouch themselves to have larger eyes,thinner chins and brighter skin. Does everyone now look the same It seems like a lot of people are trying to match up to unrealistic beauty ideals. That isn't good for anyone's self-image.
Perhaps it's time to post the real you and the only lightly retouched photos, if at all.

Distinguished judges and dear fellow students,
It's my honor to stand here and talk about "Promoting traditional Chinese festivals". As we all know, traditional Chinese festivals are an important part of Chinese culture. Firstly, traditional Chinese festivals teach us a lot about our nation's history. Moreover, they enable us to learn about fine Chinese values, thus helping us pass them down.
Therefore, promoting traditional festivals is high on the agenda(当务之急). Declaring public holidays on some traditional festivals is undoubtedly a good way to raise people's awareness of these festivals. Besides, schools can hold more activities to help draw students' attention to our tradition.
Only with the joint efforts can traditional Chinese festivals be really promoted(部分倒装).
Thank you very much for your attention!

Both teachers and students who had signed up(who引导定语从句) took an active part and brought things they didn't need or use anymore. They introduced their items and communicated with those who wanted them. The value of unused things was enhanced

This online concert is absolutely fantastic.
The performers from the two schools have done their best to entertain the audience with one song after another. Their performances are undoubtedly of high quality, which makes the concert almost no different from a live one(which引导的非限制性定语从句). I enjoyed every second of the concert and was particularly attracted when the boys and girls from Britain started to sing the traditional Chinese song "Liang Zhu"(when引导的时间状语从句). They performed the song in a way that touched my heart and gave me a feeling of connection. I hope there will be more opportunities in the future for us Chinese students and our international friends to learn about and from each other.
