Yara Shahidi, a star of Freeform's Grown-ish, is one of a group of influencers across the globe. They are taking part in a movement called Little x Little.

There are more than 2 billion people worldwide born between the mid-1990s and mid-2000s. They make up Generation Z. Little x Little aims to inspire as many of those Generation Zers as they can to do 2 billion tiny acts of good by 2030. These acts should be in support of the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals-a list of 17 ways to end starvation, fight inequality, stop climate change and much more.

Participants are encouraged to post the actions they take on social media. They should use the tag (标签)－Little x Little. They should share ideas, ranging from reducing meat consumption to abandoning the car and cycling instead.

"It is a really natural movement because what it stands for is this idea that, little by little, my generation can contribute to our world at large. I also appreciate that it does have this global aspect-we're not talking about just the U.S. but how to benefit our global community through action. Because of that, I feel like we're able to really create something special. And targeting my generation is great. We really are feeling the power behind our voice, the power of our actions," Shahidi said. Her own personal examples of doing good include contributing money and time to causes near her own home.

"Thanks to social media, we see people who aren't directly in front of us and understand there's something greater to contribute to," she also said. "A lot of times we're not aware of our support network. So many times when you enter this world of social participation, it feels very lonely when you feel like it's only you covering this topic, or only you taking part. Fortunately, Little x Little is creatingthatfor us."

How do you consume your music? What format do you listen to it on? Technology now allows us to stream and download our favorite songs through websites and apps, and we could enjoy them whenever and wherever we like. So it's surprising that the popularity of some old technology is increasing.

A number of musicians have been releasing (发行) their music on cassette tape. While it lacks the good sound quality that we expect to hear today, it was once a popular way for teenagers to enjoy recorded music. The introduction of the Walkman portable cassette player in 1979, made by Sony, meant people could listen to music on the move for the first time. By the end of 1989, 83 million tapes had been bought by British music fans, but the invention of the CD in the 1990s changed that.

Though the cassette tape declined in the 1990s, in the first six months of 2020, nearly 65,000 music cassettes were sold in the UK, double the sales from the same period the previous year. Although this is only a small part of overall music sales, cassette tapes are physical articles that can be kept and collected-not stored in the cloud. And the reappearance of the cassette has been helped by big names like Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber, who have released their music on this format.

To listen to music on a cassette, you need a tape player, but this hasn't discouraged the new younger audience. Gennaro Castaldo from the British Phonographic Industry told the BBC, "Younger consumers are now buying into their collectable appeal, and the more they do this, the greater the demand for record companies and artists to cater to." But although cassettes won't replace streaming as a way of listening to music, it does go to show how some technology never dies!

A company called Neuralink has shared a video which shows a monkey playing a Video game. That's fairly unusual, but what makes the video even stranger is that the monkey is playing the video game with just its mind.

Neuralink owned by Elon Musk is working to develop devices (设备) that could allow People to control things using just their brains. It sounds like something from a science fiction movie, but it is already showing progress in doing similar work with other animals.

The monkey is called Pager, who has two of Neuralink's special "Link" devices inside his brain, planted by a surgeon. These devices are connected to 2,048 wires which lead to the parts of Pager's brain that control movements of the arms and hands. In the experiment, scientists taught Pager to play a video game.

Firstly, Pager controlled the video game using a joystick, which is a normal gaming controller. But as Pager played, his Link devices wirelessly sent out information about the signals his brain was using to control his arms and hands. Scientists recorded all of these signals.

Then they used computers to match up the signals from Pager's brain to the movements that his hands were actually doing. This was challenging work and the scientists counted on AI to help them decode (解码) Pager's brain signals.

The final step was to have a computer make moves in the video game as if Pager had actually moved the joystick. If Pager thought about moving the joystick up, the computer would send an "up" signal to the video game.

Even though Neuralink's work now focuses on animals and video games, there's a very serious purpose behind it. Neuralink wants to make it possible for humans who have lost the ability to control their bodies to communicate vit the world. Mr. Musk says that in the near future Neauralink hopes to allow a paralyzed (瘫痪的) person to control a smartphone just by thinking, He believes they'll be able to de it faster than those who are using their hands.

In the U.S. , hanging out in a cafe with animals is a new concept. People can't get enough of it. But in Japan, cat cafes are just the start. You can hang out in rabbit cafes or have coffee in Tokyo with two goats. You can also spend an hour at a cafe holding a wise owl (猫头鹰). Tokyo's Fukuro no Mise is one of them.

To get a spot, visitors are supposed to line up an hour before Fukuro no Mise opens. But when I showed up an hour early, I was lucky to get the last seat.

Inside, I was given a list of detailed English instructions. The woman in charge also gave a long talk. Each guest was shown how to hold a bird before they really tried.

The staff will place the owl on your shoulder or head, if you like. They can also help if A your owl starts to get upset. Raising your hand in the air usually settles it down. Worker came and repositioned it. If you've had enough and want to just watch everyone else's owls, they'll come and take it away.

This isn't one of them, though no flash is allowed and no video. But posting a shot of yourself on social media holding an owl is clearly a goal for many visitors.

Souvenirs will be distributed as part of the final activity. If too many people raise hands, winners are chosen by playing rock-paper-scissors, which seems to be the same in Japan as it is in the U. S. Souvenirs usually include a photo book, cell phone charms, chopsticks and a cloth decorated with owls.

A. And you're not limited to house animals.

B. But apparently I was holding my arm wrong.

C. For example, only touch the owls on the head or back.

D. The owls seem calm although the small room is crowded.

E. Photography is forbidden in some unusual places in Japan.

F. The owl cafes are just as common there as cat cafes are here.

G Everything is held up and guests raise their hands if they want it.

Tourism started around the 17th or 18th century. Rich Europeans would set off on a Grand Tour of classical (city) across the continent, visiting Paris, Vienna, Prague, Florence, Rome, Venice, London, etc.

Famous poets such as Britain's Lord Byron spent two years travelling the Mediterranean, where they enjoyed(they), drinking large amounts of wine. In line with this style of travel, the Grand Tour tended to(reserve) for the nobles and more moneyed classes. These "tourists" would then returntales about the wealth of far-off lands and(frequent) publish memoirs, poems and other forms of media.

Mass tourism (take) shape when Thomas Cook started organizing mass tours from his base in Leicester. In the beginning, his "travel agency" would organize trips across England. His(one) "tour", in 1841, was from Leicester in England, to Loughborough, a town just 11 miles away. His next "tour" was to Liverpool, and by 1856 he(organize) tours to Scotland, Italy, Egypt and even the United States, is surely a milestone in the history of travel and tourism.

Nowadays, Thomas Cook is still a household brand name in the UK, with the company(offer) holiday packages across the world.

His father said, "All set, boy?" and Jeremy nodded, picking up hisgunwith awkward gloved hands. His father pushed open the door and they went out into the freezing dawn together. Ordinarily Jeremy would take out hiscamerato record the scenery, but not this morning. This was the morning, particularly sacred, when 14-year-old Jeremy would goduckhunting for the first time.

However, hehatedit, and had hated the whole idea since his father bought him a gun. But he was determined to go through with it. He loved his father, and wanted hisapprovalmore than anything in the world.

They came to a narrow and hidden place facing the bay. Jeremy sat down nervously andwaited. To reduce fear, he took apictureof his father against the clean water. Then he put the camera hurriedly on the grass and picked up his gun.

Jeremy got his gun ready. "I'll let youshootfirst," his father said, loading his own gun. "You know, I've been waiting for a long time for this day. Just the two of us… "He broke off, bending forward, eyes narrowed. "There's a small flight heading this way now. Keep your head down. I'll give you the word. "

The sun came out. Jeremy could see everything clearly: his father's face,tenseand eager; the white frost on the gun. His heart was beating wildly. He prayed, "Don't let them come, please!"

But they kept coming. "Four black," his father said. "One mallard (绿头鸭)." High above, Jeremy heard the pulsing whistle of wings as the flight began to circle. The mallard was leading, his feet dropping down, reaching for the silver-colored water. Closer, closer… "Get set," his father whispered.

"Now!" cried Jeremy's father. "Take them!"

Jeremy felt his body obey. He stood up, holding the gun. In the same instant, the wild ducks saw the gunners andflew. "Shoot!" said something sharply in Jeremy's brain. But up went the mallard higher still, until suddenly he caught the full force of the wind and flew away, out of range.
