Body language is a silent language that speaks louder than words sometimes. Last month, I joined an English speech competition and made a big mistake with my body language during the first practice. I stood stiffly（僵硬地） on the stage, 11 my arms and never making eye contact with the audience. My teacher pointed out my problem at once and told me that such body language would make the audience feel 12 .

Teenagers’ Online Voluntary Translation for Cross-Cultural Communication
With the development of the internet, teenagers have more chances to take part in cross-cultural voluntary work, and online voluntary translation is becoming more and more popular among middle school students. A group of teen volunteers from a middle school in Guangzhou set up an online translation team named “Young Linkers” six months ago. The team has over 40 members who are good at English and Chinese, and they provide free translation services for foreign visitors who want to know about Chinese local culture and Chinese netizens who are interested in foreign folk customs.
The volunteers mainly translate short articles, cultural introductions and travel guides. For example, they translate the stories of Chinese local intangible cultural heritage into English and post them on international social media platforms. They also translate foreign travel blogs about China into Chinese to help Chinese people understand the foreign perspective（视角） on China’s culture and scenery. Every volunteer spends one to two hours on the translation work every day after finishing their homework, and they check each other’s work to make sure the translation is accurate（准确的） and fluent.
At first, the volunteers met many difficulties, such as translating some traditional Chinese words with no direct English expressions and making mistakes in sentence structures.

Now, their translation works have been viewed by thousands of foreign netizens, and many of them left comments saying they learned a lot about Chinese culture from the articles. The volunteers say that the work not only improves their language skills but also lets them know more about different cultures and feel proud of spreading Chinese culture.
The school teachers highly support the team, saying that online voluntary translation is a good way for teenagers to practice their language abilities and develop a sense of cultural confidence.

Teenagers and Urban Green Space Protection
More and more cities are paying attention to building green spaces, such as small parks, community gardens and roadside green belts. These areas not only make cities look more beautiful but also improve air quality and provide relaxing places for people.

To change this situation, many teenage environmental groups have appeared in recent years. Members usually meet on weekends to clean up litter in local green spaces, water young trees and pull weeds.

Taking part in green space protection also brings many benefits to teenagers. They learn teamwork skills, become more responsible and develop a love for nature. Many students say they feel happy when they see the clean and tidy green areas they have protected. Schools also support such activities, as they help students learn outside textbooks and build a sense of social duty.

Campus Waste Sorting Activities by Student Volunteers
Waste sorting has become an important part of building a green campus. To make every student take part in this activity, a student volunteer team in our school started a series of waste sorting promotion activities this term. All volunteers are from Grade 7 and Grade 8, and they work hard to make waste sorting a daily habit for all schoolmates.
The volunteers hold small knowledge-sharing meetings every Monday morning. They introduce different kinds of garbage bins and teach others how to divide waste into recyclable items, kitchen waste, harmful waste and other waste correctly. They also make colourful posters and put them up near the bins to remind students of the right sorting ways.
At first, some students still made mistakes when sorting waste, and a few even thought it was unnecessary. To solve this problem, the volunteers stood beside the bins during lunchtime to guide students patiently. They also prepared small gifts like stationery（文具） for students who sorted waste correctly.
After two months, great changes have taken place in our school. Most students can sort waste properly now, and the campus becomes much cleaner and tidier. The volunteers say they will keep working and add more interesting activities such as waste sorting competitions. They hope our school can be a better place with a greener environment.

Protect Traditional Chinese Arts
Dear teachers and schoolmates,
Good morning! Today, I want to talk about protecting traditional Chinese arts.
Traditional Chinese arts, such as paper cutting, calligraphy and Peking Opera, are valuable treasures of our nation. They embody the wisdom and spirit of our ancestors and show the charm of Chinese culture. However, many traditional arts are facing great challenges today. Fewer young people are willing to learn them, and some skills are even at risk of disappearing.
As teenagers, we can do a lot to protect them. First, we can join school clubs like the traditional opera club or bamboo weaving courses to learn these skills ourselves. Second, we can share what we learn with others through social media or school exhibitions. What’s more, we can visit museums and talk to experienced craftsmen to better understand the stories behind the arts.
Let’s take action now to protect and inherit traditional Chinese arts. Thank you!
