Have you heard of depression(抑郁症) It’s a mental illness. People who have it may feel轮sad all the time or do something to hurt themselves. Now, doctors can put a“happy switch(开关)” in their heads to help them. The “happy switch” is a kind of Brain-Computer Interface (BCI, 脑机接口). It works like a bridge--- it connects your brain to a computer. Some BCIs can influence people’s brain activities. Some can let people control the computer with their thoughts.
Doctors at Shanghai Ruijin Hospital helped a patient called Wu Xiaotian. Wu, 31, has had depression since he was 15years old.
The doctors did a surgery on Wu. They put two long lines of electrodes(电极) inside his brain. The 16 electrodes are used to let out electricity on different parts of the brain, which can change the patient's feelings. The electrodes are connected to a small “box”—the power source(电源)—inside Wu's body.
Wu can control the“happy switch”remotely via an app on his phone. When feeling down,Wu turns on the switch and the electrodes start working. He is soon cheered up. “It feels like there is power rising from the inside of my body,” Wu said.
“The hospital has tested the switch on 26 patients since 2020. Up to now , it has helped cut down a patient's sad feelings by 60 percent,”said the hospital.
But is the switch safe enough Although patients like Wu feel great using it, the implant surgery is actually a dangerous one. Also, doctors have to make sure that patients don't rely on it. Healthy people shouldn't use it, or it may be like a kind of addiction(瘾) for them.

The artist cuts and prints different layers(层) in order on the same piece of wood.Famous for its colors , the reduction woodcut was listed as an intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产) in Pu’er, Yunnan, in 2009.
Leng Guangmian is a reduction woodcut artist, and he started learning the art at university in 2003. He said that making reduction woodcut prints is just like an adventure.“Every time we cut a pattern on the block(木块) and then print, we never know what it will be like in the
end.”As he sees beautiful patterns layer by layer, he only gets more excited, added Leng.
But finishing such work is not easy. He said that he needs to plan for the whole print and choose colors for different layers before cutting. A big print usually takes months to finish.
Leng hopes his artwork can not only show excellent woodcutting skills but also local culture and life.“For my works, there are two series: the Tea Horse Road(茶马古道), since Pu’er is one of the starting points of that road; and disappearing villages,” Leng said. “Many old villages in Pu'er need rebuilding for sake of safety reasons, so I want to make people remember their beauty before they are gone.”
