Qingqing: Huahua, Father’s Day is coming soon. How are you planning to celebrate it for your dad?
Huahua: I’m planning to take him out for the day, and then we’ll go have his favorite — steak.
Qingqing: Wow, that sounds great. I’m sure your dad will be really touched.
Huahua: Father’s Day only comes once a year. I just want to make him happy.
Qingqing: You’re so thoughtful. I’m still debating whether I should just give my dad a red envelope and be done with it.
Huahua: Honestly, dads don’t always care what gift we give. Just having a meal and chatting with them makes them really happy.
Qingqing: You’re right. I should plan something too and give my dad a little surprise.
Huahua: Haha. I’m sure whatever you plan will be the best gift he could ask for.

Alan Turing, celebrated as the “father of computer science,” was a brilliant mathematician and scientist. Born in London in 1912, Turing showed exceptional talent in mathematics and science from a young age. At 16, he understood Albert Einstein’s work without difficulty. This intelligence carried him through studies at Cambridge University and later at Princeton University in the US, where he further explored complex mathematical theories. In 1936, Turing introduced the concept of the Turing machine, a theoretical device for solving mathematical problems. He described it as having an infinite tape on which symbols could be read, interpreted, and modified. With simple
Denmark’s state-run postal service, PostNord, announced that it would cease letter deliveries at the end of 2025 due to the impact of digitalization. As 95% of its residents now use the Digital Post service, Denmark has seen a 90% decline in letter volumes since 2000, from 1.4 billion to 110 million last year.
