What can you do to improve your online studies?
To successfully learn online, you can follow these steps. First of all, you should always keep in mind what you hope to complete by the end of it. Then, a study plan is needed. A good study plan includes a study calendar and a to-do list. Next, when having a class, be active to think about what he teacher says and express yourself. After class, remember to review what you have learned by reading your notes or making a mind map.
With the coming of 5G, the cloud classroom might not be far away. However, whatever advantages online learning has, it just offers a way of learning. It doesn't take the place of any of the ways. There must be many more ways of learning in the future. Nobody knows what will happen.

A growing number of Chinese stories are being told by foreigners through the Internet.
Recently, a video made by an Australian on Douyin swept the screen, followed by more than 2 million zans and 110, 000 comments (评论). In the video he said. "I'm pleased with the Chinese lifestyle. It's really difficult to live in a country like Australia, especially after you have spent so much time in China. If you don't drive a car in China, you just ride a bike. You can get anywhere easily, and there are subways. But in Australia, if you don't have a car, you can do nothing."
The Australian uncle also complained about (抱怨) the price of Uber, an Australian taxi-hailing software. "My God, one kilometer is almost 20 Australian ollas (about 97 yuan RMB)."
The blogger of Beijing Expat Guide, Paul Stoker, compared life in Beijing with life in America. He said. "Life is usually controlled by cars in the US. There's no cheap and good public transportation, so it's so difficult to get somewhere. You always have to borrow or rent a car or ask for a ride." "Compared to the colorful life in Beijing, life seems so boring in America. It seems nothing has changed at home, except for you."
Coming back to America, Cynthia Lopez said at eChinacities. "The number of mass shooting in the US has quickly increased in recent years. You don't have to worry about your safety in China—guns are not allowed by law in China. Because of America's gun culture, guns will never be illegal in the US."
Many foreigners who have spent so much time in China are happy about the Chinese lifestyle. And they1.living in China. They think public traffic in China is very fast and cheap, which can take them anywhere2.. However, in their hometowns like Australia and America, public traffic is not so convenient, but3.. They can hardly go anywhere without a car. In their eyes, life in China is4.while the lifestyle in their own countries seems so boring. Another good thing in China is that they don't have to worry about their5.because guns are not allowed by law.
In fact, there must be something good both in China and any other foreign country. It's important to understand and learn from each other.
"The only constant (不变) in life is change. "Heraclitus said in about 500 B. C. That could be more true today.1. Technology is out of date almost by the time you buy it. We get plenty of information every day. Francis Bacon said. "Knowledge is power." In fact. There is more information in a newspaper than he would have experienced in his whole life.
Why are we afraid of change?2. After all, who knows what new dangers might appear? However, change is also the only way of development. Nobody can stop it in life. Luckily, our brains become stronger when meeting the unknown. 3. To be more imaginative and creative, you should look for and find environments you have no experience with.
4. For example, try a new restaurant, or go to a play or a concert you normally wouldn't attend. Small changes can help you gradually get used to uncertainty (不确定). So when bigger things happen. You'll be more fully prepared for them.

These days, teenagers are heavily influenced by the media. Many of them have watched thousands of hours of TV. That's more time than they spend with teachers at school. And we haven't yet considered the hours they spend using the Internet and reading newspapers.
However, several studies have shown a serious problem: today's teenagers lack media literacy (媒体素养). In other words, they have difficultly critically thinking about the information they see. One study that was done on middle school students showed that more than 80 percent of them couldn't tell the difference between real stories and ads that looked like news.
Standford professor Kevin John teaches a class called Media Effects. He tries to help his students learn media literacy. The professor gave an example that shows why media literacy is important. In the example, two news stations report a snowstorm. One focuses on (关注) the terrible road conditions. The other focuses on kids playing in the snow. "With a news story. news stations tell you what they feel are the important details (细节). These details mostly depend on the opinions of the news director." said John. "A person who has media literacy would realize that each story is about one side at this time. There is more going on."
Some experts think shoe is the best place to teach media literacy. Other believe everyone—form parents to reporters—should help teenagers learn the skills.
As for the best time to start learning media literacy, many experts suggest the age of 12. But some basic ideas can be taught even earlier. "It's never too early to start learning media literacy," John said.
