If you live in the United States, the law says you can’t have a full-time job until you are 16 years old.

Earning 8.(be) learning. By working to earn your own money, you are learning the skills you will need to succeed in life.

Getting people to smile is not difficult because most people like to smile. However, if someone is faced with loss or experiencing sadness, they might be less possible to smile. 1.
Praise someone to get them to smile. 2. Maybe their hair is styled in an attractive way, or their clothes look nice on them. These are the nice things you can say to probably get them to smile.
3. If you have a family member, a friend or a co-worker that is faced with a life difficulty, pull him/her aside and tell him/her you understand what he/she is going through and that you are there for him/her if he/she needs you. Doing this could help the person feel more connected with those around him/her and this is certainly a reason to smile.
Learn to listen. Again, some people may be so troubled by something that it is hard for them to smile. 4. Often, when a person can speak out what’s going on in their lives, to someone who is truly listening, it can reduce some of their burden (负担).

Make an unexpected phone call. 5. When the person knows someone cares about him/her, he/she can’t help but smile about that.
A. Let them know they are not alone.
B. They may just need someone to talk to.
C. So in such cases, how can we get people to smile?
D. Tell them everyone experiences hard times in life.
E. Perhaps the person you are talking to has nice eyes.
F. Usually, it could make an uneasy situation even worse.
G. It works especially well if you express your concern about them on the phone.
If you have ever been disappointed because you don’t have a good gardener, the clever robot may one day become the helper of your indoor plants.
The Hexa Plant is a six-legged robot that has been specially made to care for the potted (盆栽的) plant that it carries on top of its head. Using light and heat sensors (传感器), the robot has the ability to carry its plant in and out of the daylight. If the houseplant needs more sun, the Hexa will walk into the sunlight; and if the houseplant is getting too hot, the Hexa will go back into the area that blocks direct light. The Hexa Plant will even do a little dance when it senses that the plant needs to be watered to warn its owner.
The robot was developed by Vincross engineer and founder Sun Tianqi after he saw a dead sunflower sitting in the darkness in a room back in 2014. “Plants only receive an action without responding,” Sun Tianqi wrote in a blog post. “Whether they are being cut, bitten, burned or pulled from the earth, or when they haven’t received enough sunshine, water, or are too hot or cold, they will hold still and take whatever is happening to them.”
According to Sun Tianqi, for billions of years, plants have never experienced movement of any kind, not even the simplest movement. In their whole lives, they stick to where they were born. Sun Tianqi continued, “Do they want to break their own settings or have a tendency (趋向) towards this? I do not know the answer, but I would love to try to share some of this human tendency and technology with plants. With the help of the robot, plants can experience the move.”
The Hexa Plant model robots are not for sale, though Vincross does sell a Hexa robot model. It is said that in the near future the robots can open up a new market to watch over our household plants.
