这是怎么做到的！ Here's how it's done!

世界教师日

每年的10月5日是世界教师日，这一天是所有教育工作者的庆祝日。1966年10月5日，国际劳工组织和联合国教科文组织共同审议通过了《关于教师地位的建议书》，因此当天也被设立为世界教师日。这一文件不仅肯定了教师的重要作用，而且规定了教师的权利与责任，同时提出了关于教师技能认定等方面的国际标准。

正如教师塑造思想和未来一样，大自然也提供了传递知识的“专属方式”：栖息在南极半岛和南极岛屿的岩石中，成对出生的巴布亚企鹅幼崽见证了自己父母的奉献精神。父亲和母亲在牢固的一夫一妻关系中共同抚养它们，把食物带回石巢。在喂食和养育30天后，为了安全和学习本领，幼崽会加入“托儿所”，企鹅父母们会亲身教导它们的生存技巧。

World Teachers' Day

It's World Teachers' Day, time to celebrate those who dedicate their lives to transmitting knowledge, skills, and experience. Just as teachers shape minds and futures, nature too offers its own ways of passing knowledge. Nestled in the rocky landscapes of the Antarctic Peninsula and Antarctic islands, gentoo penguin hatchlings, born in pairs, benefit from dedicated parental support. The father and mother raise them in a bonded, monogamous pair, bringing food back to the stony nest they have built together. After being fed and raised for 30 days, the chicks join a larger flock known as a crèche or nursery for safety and to learn social behavior. Penguin parents and their community pass on their wisdom through the language of survival.
