5. How can parents help their children become smarter?
Well, I think that parents should help their children with their homework when they are young,
or at least go over their assignments, in order to correct and explain whatever might be wrong. In
addition, I strongly believe that parents should talk to their children
a lot, and ask for their kids’
opinion all the time. It's essential for children to be able to think independently. This will stimulate
their creativity, and teach them how to deal with situations on their own. If possible, parents could
also pay for extra lessons on the weekend for their children to learn more skills like English or music.
6. How do you think that artificial intelligence (AI) will influence our lives in the
future ?
Well, we can imagine that robots will be able to help us with daily chores at home. I guess that
our appliances at home or at work will also be equipped with AI devices. For example, computers
will recognize our voice and greet us, our refrigerator will count how many calories we have been
eating, and cars will sense when we are tired of driving. It will happen; it's only a matter of time.

No one will ever forget him.
Let me tell you about Yao Ming, one of the most famous celebrities in China. He is an
incredible athlete who plays in the NBA. He is 2.29m, and is currently the tallest player in the
league
．
He is obviously very skillful and talented, but he’s also a great Chinese
ambassador overseas.
He was born in Shanghai in 1980, and he played basketball there for quite a few years before
entering the NBA. He was drafted by the Houston Rockets and has been playing for them since
2002
．
He's a hero in China because very few Chinese players get their chance in the NBA. Many
young Chinese boys regard Yao Ming as their idol, and he has really made a name for himself.
Yao is everywhere in the national news
，
and journalists always report on his achievements or
difficulties on a daily basis
．
Because of his size, Yao Ming often gets injured, but he also keeps
busy with many advertising campaigns. I read somewhere that he was the richest celebrity in China.
People admire Yao Ming because of his hard-work and also because of his humanity: he always
organizes charity events and he hosted a telethon to raise money against SARS a few years
ago
．
After the devastating earthquake that hit Sichuan, he donated 2 million dollars
．
In addition,
a few months ago, he bought his former club in Shanghai, as they were facing financial problems
．
He
hopes to help the club regain its prominent place among China's other teams
．
Yao Ming is respected by everyone and I believe he will be remembered long after he stops
playing basketball. I think he's a well-rounded man, and that's what people appreciate about him.
