Last year I went to the Rio de Janeiro Carnival (狂欢节), and it blew my mind. It had been my dream to join in the famous carnival for many years, so I was excited. However, as soon as I arrived, I was a little bit nervous because there were so many people on the streets. They say that five or six million people come to Rio during carnival time and about two million of them are on the streets on a single day. Luckily, I had a local (当地的) guide, my sister's friend Ronnie. He said he would take care of me and show me around at the carnival. He did not let me down.
Well, the carnival is all about the samba (桑巴舞). It's a style of music and dance which comes from Africa. Samba music is usually fast and exciting with a lot of drums and harmonic vocals (和声). It is the kind of music that you couldn't help dancing to. And I was learning that as I followed Ronnie through the crowd.
Ronnie had got us tickets for the samba Parade (游行) inside the Sambadrome (桑巴大道)where the top samba schools take part in the competition. But we still had a long way to go through the street parties. He said most people enjoy the carnival by making their own parties in the street.
So, you must be wondering how the samba Parade was in Sambadrome ▲. In fact, Ronnie and I never made into Sambadrome. We just spent the day moving from one street party to another. There were more snacks, more drinks and lots of dancing. Do I regret(后悔) missing the main parade? Not at all. I experienced the carnival like the locals in a special way, and it was truly amazing.
Type in "A cat wants to go to space" and ask the robot to write a bedtime story. Just one second later, you'll get the story of Max, who was on his way past many difficulties to sing among the stars.
This robot writer is real. It's called ChatGPT. It was developed by US company Open AI. It can translate languages, talk with people and write songs, poems and even jokes. It's one of the top AI tools of its kind, with almost all the writing range(范围) of a real person! According to a US report of more than 1,000 students, over 89% of them have used ChatGPT to help with homework. Some students even got high marks thanks to papers written by ChatGPT.
Some schools in the US, Australia and France have banned the use of ChatGPT In the US, for example, students and teachers in New York City public schools are not allowed (允许) to use ChatGPT on the networks and devices(设备),CNN reported.
The move comes out of worries that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat (作弊)on homework. Some also worry that ChatGPT could bring some problems at the same time. "It does not build critical-thinking (批判性思维) and problem-solving skills, which are necessary for academic (学术的) and lifelong success," said Jenna Lyle, a secretary of the New York City Department of Education.
However, not all educators say "no" to Chat GPT. Some Canadian universities are making policies(政策) on its use, for both students and teachers. They have no plans to completely stop the use of the tool so far.
