One winter evening, a storekeeper was going to close his shop. Suddenly he saw Seth, a lazy man, stealing a pound of fresh butter and putting it in his hat. The storekeeper knew Seth well and came up with an idea to punish him.
Seth wanted to leave at once. However, the storekeeper greeted him and offered him a cup of hot coffee, took him by the shoulders and pushed him into a chair close to the stove (火炉).
Seth already could feel the butter was melting (熔化), so he jumped up, saying that he must go. “Please sit down and don't be in such a hurry,” replied the storekeeper, pushing him back into the chair again.
The melting butter came pouring from under the poor man's hat. But the storekeeper kept on putting wood into the stove. Then, he said as if he was astonished, “You seem to be sweating (流汗)! Let me take off your hat.” “No!” cried poor Seth. He was unable to stand it any more. “No, I must go! Let me out!” he cried.
A greasy (油腻的) waterfall of butter was now pouring down the poor man's face and neck, going into his clothes, and finally into his boots. He was bathed in oil from head to toe. Just as the thief rushed out of the door, the storekeeper said, “Don't worry. I have had enough fun, so I won't charge you for that pound of butter, in your hat.”

From driver-less cars to 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 research by scientists at the University of Oxford, AI will be better than humans at translating languages by 2024, writing school essays by 2026, writing bestselling books by 2049, and treating diseases by 2053. In the next few years, these are just a few examples of how AI will change the future. But wait, what about jobs Will they 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, AI has created 58 million new AI jobs by 2022.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. Taking India as an example, three times more companies are working on AI-based projects and this is likely to continue. India almost doubled its AI engineers in 2019 (from 40,000 in 2018 to 72,000 in 2019) but 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 is the time to prepare for the age of AI.

A.Explanations about job chances.
B.Explanations about job shortage.

True art moves us. It takes us on a journey. And I have not come across such an exciting journey as Angelo's. He took a lot of photos of his wife, Jennifer, during her fight with cancer. Even though she lost the fight finally, she left us with some of the most beautiful photos I've ever seen.

Meet the man who loved her, who honored her, until the end.
Remember that this is a story — a true story. Angelo loved Jennifer. He honored Jennifer's energy, and her expressions changed as she fought with the cancer.
Finally, Angelo had to say goodbye to his wife, but his photos allow her spirit to continue on. She is still doing work in this world. She continues cheering us up. Thank you, Angelo — you've shown us what it means to love. And thank you, Jennifer — you've changed my heart in some way.

2.Take Notes
Write down the facts that your teacher says or writes during the class. Try your best to write clearly so you can read your notes later.

Waiting until Thursday night to study for Friday's test will not be fun. It also makes it hard to do your best. Write down your test dates. You can then plan how much to do after school each day, and how much time to spend on each subject.

One Possible Version:
How can a teenager have a successful life
I have recently done a survey about how a teenager can have a successful life.
Most students believe it's necessary to study hard.After all, study plays a key role in their life. They also agree they should respect their parents, who look after them every day. Besides, they're ready to serve the society and in their opinion it's really meaningful. What's more, they think each teenager is supposed to make a good plan for future.
In my point, we need to make some good friends so that we can learn from each other. Also, we must be active and exercise more to keep healthy because it's helpful to a successful life.
