Have you ever wondered how your smartphone screen knows exactly where you touch it? Most modern mobile devices use what is called a capacitive touchscreen. The screen is not just one piece of glass; it is made of multiple layers. The top layer is often made of (35) __________ special, durable glass, and beneath it are layers that conduct electricity.

These conductive layers have a constant, invisible electrical field across them. When your finger, which is also conductive, touches the screen's surface, it (36) __________ this electrical field at the precise point of contact. This change in electrical charge is tiny, but it's enough for the device to detect. The screen does not feel pressure; it only senses this electrical change.

The device's controller, a component which is part of the processor, then immediately (37) __________ where the disruption occurred. A user manual might state that a user (38) __________ the screen with a bare finger for the technology to work correctly. This location data is then sent to the phone's operating system, which carries out the command you intended, like opening an app.

This entire process works (39) __________ the human body can conduct electricity. The natural moisture and salts on your skin make your finger a perfect tool for this interaction. This unique property allows the device (40) __________ your gestures and taps with incredible accuracy. You can see why using a regular plastic pen does not work on your phone screen!

So, the next time you use your phone, remember the simple but brilliant science at play. It is a great example of clever engineering that we use every day. Understanding it is not too difficult once you (41) __________. If human skin were not conductive, this amazing technology (42) __________ today.

Vietnamese cinema is experiencing an unprecedented boom. Films by directors like Trấn Thành, such as 'Nhà Bà Nữ' and 'Mai', have shattered domestic box office records, drawing huge crowds and sparking national conversation. This commercial success is a clear sign of a healthy, growing industry. However, it also raises a more ambitious question: Can this domestic popularity translate into international critical acclaim? Many look to the global success of South Korea's 'Parasite', which won the Oscar for Best Picture, as a benchmark for what is possible when a national cinema captures the world's attention.

The recent wave of Vietnamese hits demonstrates significant progress. Technically, films are more polished than ever, with impressive cinematography, sound design, and visual effects that can rival regional productions. Furthermore, storytellers are tapping into modern Vietnamese life, creating characters and situations that feel authentic and deeply relatable to local audiences. This connection is a key driver of their domestic success, as viewers see their own experiences and social issues reflected on the big screen, leading to powerful emotional engagement.

Despite these strengths, the path to international awards is filled with challenges. Many successful Vietnamese films rely heavily on melodrama and plot points that are culturally specific, which may not resonate with global viewers. Critics argue that to succeed at major international film festivals like Cannes, Venice, or the Oscars, films often need more than commercial appeal; They often reward originality, thematic depth, and a unique artistic vision that pushes creative boundaries. Some local blockbusters, while entertaining, are sometimes seen as having predictable narratives compared to the artistically ambitious films that typically win prestigious awards.

So, what is the way forward? The solution is not necessarily to stop making commercially successful films, but to diversify. Industry experts suggest that a two-pronged approach is needed. First, continue creating high-quality blockbusters that strengthen the domestic market. Second, and crucially for international ambitions, is to nurture a different kind of cinema. This involves supporting independent filmmakers who dare to tell unconventional stories, investing in scripts with universal themes, and creating a support system for 'art-house' films designed for the festival circuit rather than just for massive profits.

Ultimately, Vietnamese cinema is at an exciting but critical crossroads. Celebrating domestic box office records is important, as it builds a strong foundation for the industry. However, earning a place on the world stage requires a conscious strategy to foster creativity, originality, and storytelling that can speak to all of humanity. The journey will be long, but the recent momentum suggests that a future Vietnamese 'Parasite' is no longer an impossible dream.
