It’ s that time of the yeargraduation. The end of school year is nearly in sight, and it’ s an especially big deal if you’ re finishing high school or college.
One amazing 16yearold Florida girl, Grace Bush, graduated from both high school and college this week! She actually got her college diploma before her high school diploma. How did she manage to do that?
“Hard work and great attention,” she told a local TV news station, “have made me succeed in doing high school and college at the same time.” She started taking college courses when she was just 13. She would often get up at 5:30 a.m. and go to bed after 11:00 p.m.
Doing both at the same time is a huge achievement, and it has also helped her family save money. She’ s one of the 9 children, all homeschooled until the age of 13. Her father is a math professor while her mother is a parttime history teacher in a high school. Grace Bush has earned her college degree in law, with a near perfect GPA of 3.8 and she hopes to become a lawyer one day, although her parents expect her to teach at university.

Inventions make our life easier and better than before. What are the best inventions of last year? Here are three amazing things in Time magazine’ s list of the 25 best inventions of 2017.
Smart mug
It’ s hard to keep coffee or tea warm, especially in winter. But this smart mug from US company Ember Technologies can solve this problem. There is an app for the mug that allows people to set the mug to a certain temperature between 48 ℃ and 62 ℃. Then, the mug keeps your coffee or tea at that temperature for about an hour, and even longer if you put the mug on a charging(充电) plate.
Social robot
Can robots talk to us like humans? Jibo, a robot made by US company Jibo Inc, can do this. With a big, round head and a big body, Jibo looks like a cartoon character. And its voice sounds like a 10yearold boy. As soon as you say “Hey, Jibo,” it dances and turns to face you.
When it talks to you, it moves its head and body to communicate with you. Its appearance, tone of voice and humor make you feel that you have a little friend. Jibo is able to tell stories to children, take pictures just by hearing your order “Jibo, take a picture”, and do hundreds of other jobs. Although its creators think that Jibo still has a lot to learn, it’ s available with a price of $899; a good price for a pretty smart and friendly robot!
