8、t is something you can do all over the world. We quickly created an account on a pet sitting website and began searching for options. There were only a couple of sits available in that part of the world, but we tried our luck, sent a request, and to our surprise landed a three-month job in Grenada,
9、so our year was going to be taken up with Caribbean pet sits. Inspired by a Canadian couple, we decided to start our own travel blog. We began by writing about The Virgin Islands, highlighting the beautiful beaches. However, for every photo album of a beautiful beach， there were 10 photos of trash （
10、垃圾） It was hard to ignore the plastic pollution issue, especially on such primitive and remote beaches.

So why and how have pandas abandoned their taste for meat to pick up a vegetarian diet?Pandas today dont eat meat. However, theyve kept much of their meat-eating adaptations from times past. Their d
17、igestive systems have not changed much from their meat-eating days. Out of the huge 12. 5 kg of bamboo they eat in a single day, only about 17% of it is digested.

If you can answer this question, you already are accustomed towhat we term “algospeak. ” As more and more online users join social media platforms such as TikTok （抖音），algo
25、speak continues to grow. But what is it， what do these words mean？Algospeak is a coded language or slang used online.
