Have you ever wanted to check on a friend but hesitated to make a call You want to know if they are okay but you are afraid it might not be the right time. If so, you could suggest they download a new app called“Died-or-Not”.
This app is designed for people who live alone and has become widely popular recently. The rule is simple users need to check in on the app every day. If they stay silent for two days, the app automatically sends an email to their emergency contact. For just 8 yuan, it offers a way to feel safe without needing to call anyone.
However, before you recommend it, you should know that the app has caused a heated discussion. The main problem is its name. Some people think it is too direct and not polite, while the creator argues it is just honest.

D. The user's account will be fined 8 yuan.

Avatar 3: Fire and Ash, the latest work in James Cameron's sci-fi epic series, continues the adventure of the Sully family on the magical planet Pandora. Unlike the previous films that focused on the conflict between humans and Na'vi, this movie turns to the divisions and struggles within the Na'vi civilization, making the story more complex and thought-provoking.

They live in the volcanic area and have lost faith in Eywa, the goddess of Pandora, due to past disasters. Led by their chief Varang, they ally with human villains, bringing new dangers to the Sully family.

Finally, he realizes that family bonds are more important than blood. In the end, the Sully family and different Na'vi clans learn to understand each other and unite to protect Pandora.

In our lives, we may meet with different kinds of difficulties. But how can we deal with them Here is one of my own experiences.
Last year, I struggled with math. I failed a test and felt hopeless. But I didn't give up. I studied every day after school, asked my teacher for help, and practiced problems repeatedly. After a month, I took another exam and got a high score.
This experience taught me that challenges make us stronger. The harder the difficulty, the better we become. Now, I feel proud and confident.
