Finally graduated from Linc

Leonli Leonli Posted on2024-04-27 Browse2952 comments0
I started learning LINC Home Study, a free, online English study program sponsored by Canadian governments for newcomers, three years and a quarter ago. A very nice instructor would call me with Whatsapp and Skype half an hour once a week to take classes. I'm very lucky to have joined the program which provided me with a systematic way to enhance listening, speaking, reading and writing abilities together. This morning, I finally got my graduate certificate with 4 eights(comparable to IELTs 8).  Before my departure to China two years ago, I told my instructor I might not continue to study because I would go back to China in the future years (which might be against the policy of the program). She encouraged me to continue for not being in Canada wouldn't be a problem since several of her other students were studying in Japan, Korean and Russia. Then I didn't give up and finally graduate today . So I really appreciated my instructor, who is very responsible for my study and gave me so many helps. She not only taught me the materials on LINC's website, but also gave me numerous other resources to study: TED Talks, YouTube videos and even IELTS exams with various of topics, such as AI, ChatGpt, history, biography of great people, medicals. She corrected my pronunciations and homework very patiently. And I really enjoyed the small talk with her at the beginning of every class. At first, the talk would be about 3 minutes. But with the advance of my degree, the time increased to from 15 to 20 minutes and the topics became broader and broader, like Canada's and China's economies and real estate markets, the pandemic in Canada and China, how to refurbish my house, my recent work, and more.

-- This is my Linc English homework which is posted by my teacher as a recommended article on LincChatGPT is based on OpenAI and is free for use now. During the past several months, ChatGPT has gained fast popularity globally.People can easily use prompts to talk with ChatGPT and get human-like responses. It can talk about various topics with us. For example, you can ask it to explain Quantum Computing, how to make an “HTTP request” in Javascrip, or to make a calculation of “10 plus 9”. ChatGPT can even remember previous conversations and generate corresponding information in the follow-up talk. But once a brand-new conversation is started, the information in previous conversations will be lost and can’t be restored for the new session. People can click thumbs-up and thumbs-down icons to give feedback on the answers from ChatGPT, which is a useful way to train it to become smarter.

Summary of the story of Elon Musk

Leonli Leonli Posted on2022-11-25 Browse75056 comments0
Elon Musk was born on June 28, 1971, in Pretoria South Africa. He has two brothers. His father was so abusive that Musk’s childhood was full of violence and unhappiness. His mother found he was very smart and let him go to school a year early. Later he became crazy about computer games when he was 10. He then taught himself how to code and even sold a game software made by him to a PC magazine for $500 when he was only 12. At the age of 17, Elon Musk moved from his hometown to the US to attend Pennsylvania University, graduating with dual bachelor's degrees in Economics and Physics at the age of 26. In 1995, he moved again to Silicon Valley to study energy storage technology at Stanford for a Ph.D. degree. Soon, he found the Internet industry would have huge business potential in the future, though most people thought the Internet was a fad and far away from monetization early in 1995. He then dropped out of school and started a new company, called ZIP2, with his brother. Meanwhile, starting a business was not as easy as he previously thought. He didn’t have any money except for $100,000 worth of student debt, and he had to both work and live in a little office. Quickly he grasped a business opportunity that helped media companies convert their paper and print content into digital content. ZIP2 grew gradually and struck deals with some big clients, such as New York Times. 3.5 years later, Compaq acquired ZIP2 for $30.5 million, of which $22 million went to Musk. Suddenly, he became a multi-millionaire from a broke due.Musk’s next goal was to transform the traditional banking industry, so he started a new company X.com, which was merged with another company and renamed as world-famous Paypal. The main feature of Paypal was that customers were able to email money to others rather than dealing with everything in cash. Because a payee would have to sign up for Paypal and automatically be recruited into the system. The more people using Paypal, the faster it would grow. With this smart way to grow exponentially, Paypal acquired a million customers in only a year. However, in October 2000, one and a half years after creating the company, Musk was unfortunately fired as CEO of Paypal. Later in 2002, EBAY purchased Paypal for $1.5 billion with Musk receiving $165 million.As Musk became more supplicated in business, he kept thinking critically and beneficial things which would change the course of humanity. He came back to his dream of building electric cars, which was his field of study for his Ph.D. degree. In 2004, he invested $6.5 million in Tesla, a startup founded by other two persons, and became the chairman of the company. Between 2004 and 2008, Musk and his team worked relentlessly on producing their first car, the Tesla Roadster. And the car was released to the market in 2008.

Jack won a big lottery prize of $10 million 3 years ago. He had imagined various scenarios to make a huge fortune, but winning a lottery was ranked the last in his fantasies. This was truly lady luck paid a visit. He still remembered the moment when he got the good news. He was repairing a luxury car for his customer in a 4S store. At first, he was too shocked to grasp his wrench, but then he started smiling like a fool to his colleagues. He and his wife decided to say good riddance to their past boring life style in a flash. They both quit their jobs the next day. Then, they made a very long to-do list: Buying a luxury apartment, shopping every day, traveling around the world, having plastic surgeries, etc. It seemed that they would be in a whirlwind of activity in the following years.

Run fast every day (script and lines)

Note: This is a script I wrote with the team members when I joined Tencent for new employee training. This sketch takes Tencent's newly developed "Tiantian Express" news APP as the main story background, interspersed with many of Tencent's main products (such as penguin images, various functions of WeChat, etc.), ridicules recent current affairs (such as the Leiyang case, Vanke equity dispute, etc.), appropriately hacks the friendly army (such as today's headlines), and ridicules Tencent's head Xiao Ma Ge. The sketch takes the lower limit of the show as the highest purpose and the highest purpose of amusing all employees, so the writing style is a bit colorful, please see Guan Haihan.  Please be sure to indicate the source when reprinting!

"Wenwu Beiyang: Romance" reading notes

[img]download.asp?id=48[/img][Dimension | 10.30 | "Wenwu Beiyang: Romance" Reading Notes] 1. The status and legal environment of the literati during the Beiyang period were actually very high. Whether the status of literati is high or not depends on the salary. At that time, Peking University gathered masters such as Cai Yuanpei, Chen Duxiu, Liu Bannong, Zhou Zuoren, Zhang Shizhao, and Li Dazhao. Chen Duxiu had the highest salary, with a monthly salary of 300 silver dollars, and other professors ranged from about 200 silver dollars, and Li Dazhao was initially a librarian with a monthly salary of 100 yuan. What is not mentioned is that Emperor Taizu, as a librarian under Li Dazhao, had a monthly salary of only 8 yuan, 8 yuan, and 8 yuan...... Converted from the silver dollar of the Beiyang period to the current RMB 1:100, Chen Duxiu's monthly salary is 30,000 yuan, which is a very high salary in today's professor circle.
