DeepSeek is a new AI company from China. Recently, it has become very popular. On 20th January, 2025, DeepSeek introduced two new models. These models are very     1     and can do many things. One of the models, called DeepSeek-R1-Zero, is very special. It can     2     maths problems, write simple code, and chat like humans. What’s special? It learns by practising, not just reading examples.

DeepSeek-R1-Zero learns like students that do homework. Other AI systems need many examples to learn, but R1 improves by     3    . “It’s like     4     a bird to fly,” said an engineer. “The more it tries, the     5     it works.”

The AI is     6     for schools and small businesses. A teacher in Vietnam said, “Now even villagers can use AI without worrying about     7    .”

But there are     8    . AI sometimes makes mistakes in languages like German or Russian. The team is trying to fix this. “We want AI to help everyone     9     the world,” they said.

DeepSeek’s success shows that China is getting better at making AI. It is changing the world of AI. It tells us that great things come from     10     and hard work, not just money.
