Tony Williams, 75 from Alton, East Hampshire, lost his wife Jo back in May, when, tragically, Jo, passed away from cancer just nine days after she was diagnosed.
And ever since, Tony has been completely alone, explaining the continuous loneliness is “like torture, with no family nearby”. Tony took finding a friend into his own hands, even putting two adverts in his local newspaper and handing out cards. Heartbreakingly, he received no responses.
But after a poster he placed in his window made headlines this week, the retired physicist has been overwhelmed with responses from people wanting to be his friend. In just a couple of days, he's had between 50 and 70 phone calls with strangers, and meanwhile he's received thousands of emails.
Tony said: “I just regret it's impossible for me to answer even a small part of calls and emails. If I could meet them all I would tell them how much I care for them and how much I'd like to reach out to them as they did to me. The love, kindness and compassion they've shown actually brought tears to my eyes.”
He has even had phone calls from as far as America and Canada!
Tony met his late wife Jo, who he describes as his “best friend and soul mate,” in a bar more than 35 years ago, and describes their marriage as a “perfect harmony”. The couple, who lived in Gloucestershire for 25 years, were unable to have any children, and so depended on each other heavily for company and support.
“For weeks and weeks, it looked as if I was pushing doors open and they were immediately slammed in my face. And then I was isolated and almost totally abandoned. And I thought, I've got to do something about that," he recalled.
Tony's determination has paid off, getting hundreds of people queuing up to be his friend. We're so pleased for you, Tony!

【推荐1】It was the day of the big cross-country run. Students from seven different elementary schools in and around the small town of 100-Mile House, British Columbia, were warming up and walking the route through thick evergreen forest.
I looked around and finally saw David standing by himself off to the side by a fence. He was small for ten years old, with messy red hair. But his usual big toothy grin was absent today. I walked over and asked him why he wasn’t with the other children. The only response he gave me was he had decided not to run. What was wrong? He had worked so hard for this event! David’s cerebral palsy (脑瘫) prevented him from walking or running like other children, but at school his peers thought of him as a regular kid. He always participated to the best of his ability in whatever they were doing. It just took him longer. He had stubbornly run a total of twenty three kilometres in practice runs to prepare for that day’s two-and-a-half-kilometre run, and he had asked me to come and watch. We sat down together on some steps, but David wouldn’t look at me. I quietly said, “David, if you don’t want to run today, no one is going to make you. But if you’re not running because you’re afraid someone is going to laugh, that’s not a good enough reason. There will always be someone who will laugh and say mean things. Are you going to let them get in your way? If you really want to run, David, then you run!” I held my breath as David took this in. Then he looked at the field and said, “I’m gonna run.”
The starter’s gun sounded. But he had only gone a few metres before he tripped and fell flat on the ground. My heart sank. As I started to shout encouragement, David picked himself up and started again. All the other runners had disappeared over the hill. But it didn’t matter. He had worked for it, and he wouldn’t give up!
I waited anxiously by the finish line as the most runners completed and another race had begun. Still no David! I started to feel sick. Had I done the wrong thing? Could he have become lost? Finally, a small figure emerged from the forest. David raised his arms in triumph as he crossed the finish line to wild cheers and applause. He caught my eye, flashed me a toothy grin and said, “That was easy!”

【推荐2】Li Jing, 29, is a native of Cuijiaba, a small town in Hubei Province. She was one of the first people from her community to go for higher education. After graduation, she worked in Wuhan first, and then she changed her decision last year to return to her village.
“I want to be a part of my hometown’s development and bring about real changes to our villagers while realizing my own personal value,” Li said.
After returning to her hometown, Li received strong support from her family, while there were some villagers who questioned her decision. She decided to show her love to the hometown through action.
Her job included a great deal of communication with the villagers mainly to increase potato production. “We regularly hold meetings in the village square, where we share ideas on potato planting skills, selling methods, market changes and more,” Li said.
To increase sales outside the village, the young workforce in the village chose to go into the world of livestreaming(直播). This new marketing method has produced satisfying results. Together with other methods like doing online business on websites and apps, the money that a family can get from potato sales in a year has risen sharply from 1,000 yuan to the present number of 20,000 yuan, according to Li.
However, the road to success is not always easy. “At first, some people were not willing to accept the new ideas,” Li said. But Li didn’t force them. Instead, she chose to communicate with effort. Li and her workmates would also search online for other villages’ success stories about the application of livestreaming, and shared them with villagers. She knew communications took a lot of time and energy, but she believed it’s all worth it. Li said, “True smiles on the faces of the villagers are the best gifts for me.”
In the near future, Li hopes to continue helping her villagers raise their potato production and earn more money. Her long-term goal is to help rural areas further develop and integrate(结合) with the city. She said hopefully, “We will continually find ways to bring happiness to the villagers and the long-term development to the countryside.”

【推荐3】Glancing at the email’s sender, my heart raced. It starts off as you would expect: “Thank you for your interest”. It ends with “We are sorry to inform you” and my eyes misted over. I thought the rejection meant the end of the road for my science career. Only later would I see that instead, it provided an exciting new direction to follow.
I always wanted to be a scientist. I started off as a biology student but quickly felt unwelcome among the premeds (医学预科生). I tried out physics but felt increasingly anxious until, thanks to a suggestion from my mom, I ended up in geography and fell in love. When I found that summer research program, I thought I had found the perfect topic and a stepping stone to my dream academic career.
Then came that rejection email. Once again, I felt lost and hopeless. It seemed clear I’d never get to work in a lab or become a scientist.
So I was shocked when, not long after the rejection email, the professor running the research program invited me to observe the work being done in her lab. I jumped at the chance, and a few weeks later I was equally shocked when she invited me to talk with her about potential projects I could pursue in her lab. What she proposed didn’t seem as exciting as the original project I had applied for, but I felt I wasn’t in a position to be picky.
Soon I found myself cooperating with a robotics professor on techniques for collecting data from the desert remotely. In the end, I finished my paper and had a new scientific interest to pursue.
At first, I decided I would be selective about the options I pursued. But through this experience, I’ve realized that sometimes I need to take the opportunities that are offered, even if they don’t sound exactly perfect, and make the most of them. And I’ve also learned to look at each rejection as a redirection instead.
1. What was the research program the author applied for about?| A．Biology. | B．Geography. | C．Medicine. | D．Physics. |
| A．A chance to invite a professor. | B．The rejection email |
| C．The professor’s suggestion. | D．The success in his career. |
| A．Flexible. | B．Skillful. | C．Talented. | D．Picky. |
| A．How I managed to make a right choice. | B．How my professor offered help to me. |
| C．How I became a scientist working in a lab. | D．How I learned to turn rejection into redirection. |
【推荐1】Russ Fee was asleep inside his tent last summer when a series of screams woke him up. Throwing on his shoes, he ran out to investigate. Fee and his wife were travelling through Canada’s Banff National Park to enjoy its stunning beauty and awesome wildlife. It was the latter he now encountered. Although it was dark, Fee could detect a neighbouring tent in disorder. Backing out was a wolf, dragging something in his teeth. That thing was a man.
Moments earlier, Elisa and Matt Rispoli, from New Jersey, were asleep with their two young children when the wolf tore into their tent. “It was like something out of a horror movie,” Elisa posted on Facebook. For three minutes, “Matt threw his body in front of me and the boys and fought the wolf”. At one point, Matt got the upper hand, pinning the wolf to the ground. But the wolf fixed its jaw onto Matt’s arm, set its powerful legs, and began dragging Matt outside “while I was pulling on his legs trying to get him back”, Elisa wrote.
It was then that Russ Fee entered the picture. He ran at the beast, kicking it “like I was kicking in a door”, he told ABC New York. The wolf dropped Matt and emerged from the tent. “Wolves are large,” Fee told the radio show Calgary Eyeopener. “I felt like I had punched someone that was way out of my weight class.”
Before the wolf could turn its anger on Fee, Matt, his arms bloodied, flew out of the tent to resume the battle. The men attacked the wolf with rocks, forcing it back, then the Fees and the Rispolis fled to the shelter of the Fees’ minivan. An ambulance was called, and Matt was taken to a local hospital suffering puncture(穿刺) wounds. He has fully recovered. The wolf was tracked down by park officials and euthanized(安乐死).
As for Fee, whom Elisa dubbed their guardian angel, he does admit to a fleeting, if less-than-heroic, thought during the heat of battle. The moment the wolf locked eyes with him, Fee says, “I immediately regretted kicking it.”

【推荐2】Nada Popovici, a future medical student, was at a professional hockey (曲棍球) game. She kept looking at the back of the man’s neck. She wrote a message with the words “mole”, “ cancer” (癌), and “doctor” on her phone in bright red type to get the attention of the man, Brian Hamilton, an equipment manager for the hockey team.
Mr. Hamilton had a small mole on his neck. It was irregularly shaped and red-brown. These are the signs of cancer that Ms. Popovici had learned 1o see. After waving al him several times, she finally drew Mr. Hamilton’s attention. She held high her phone on which read, “The mole on the back of your neck is possibly cancer. Please go to see a doctor!”
Mr. Hamilton looked at the message, rubbed the back of his neck, and kept walking. “Well, that’s unusual.” But after the game, he asked the team doctor if it was worrisome. It was! Then after he had it removed in a hospital, he waited for the results. Was the fan sitting in the stands right?
Indeed, Ms. Popovici was correct. She had saved Hamilton’s life. Doctors later told him that it was type-2 cancer, which could be removed easily but early discovery is important. “The sooner you find something, the better it is,” a doctor said. Mr. Hamilton wrote a letter posted on the team’s Twitter account, trying to find the lady who saved his life. It took less than three hours to find Ms. Popovici.
A couple of weeks later, at the next game, they met each other. She watched the game from the same seat where she had noticed the mole. She thought everything had gone right that day.

【推荐3】A year after Walt Disney made history with the release of Snow While and the Seven Dwarfs, his artists were struggling to find the right design for the woodland backgrounds of Bambi, the coming-of-age tale of a young deer. The film’s production team realized they needed an alternative to the style in their first feature length animated film. Soon they got their inspiration from Tyrus Wong, whose work was on display at New York City’s Museum of Chinese in American Wong, an immigrant (移民) from Taishan, China, arrived in California at 9 with his father in 1919. Wong eventually settled near Los Angeles, where he developed his passions for art and drawing and got trained at the Otis Art Institute.
In 1938, The Walt Disney Studio hired him to draw the frames between the main drawings of the animators. Wong soon learned that the studio was trying to turn Felix Salten’s novel Bambi into an animated film. After reading the story, he saw an opportunity to break out of his boring job.
Inspired by Chinese landscape paintings, he used watercolor and crayons that created the forest scenes with simple strokes (笔画) of color and special attention 10 light and shadow. Wong’s skills caught Disney’s eye and became the guide for Bambi s background artists, who were later trained to mimic (效仿) his style.
By the time Bambi hit theaters in 1942, a strike at The Walt Disney Studio had left Wong jobless after three years of working on the project. He later became an illustrator for Warner Bros, where he worked for more than two decades.
“People admire his work because of Bambi, but Bambi was just a rally small part of his art life,” said Wong’s youngest daughter. “He considers himself not a great artist but a lucky artist, who was at the right place at the right time.”

【推荐1】Emily Egan was born and raised in Essex, United Kingdom and speaks no foreign language, but hearing her speak, you could swear she's a Russian immigrant(移民)or a tourist, because of her Eastern European accent. But the funny thing is that she sometimes sounds French, Italian or even Polish, depending on how tired she is.
31 -year-old Emily's life changed greatly in January, when a mysterious condition left her unable to speak for two months. She’d had headaches for two weeks before one day developing a deeper voice suddenly. Her colleagues at a children's home then noticed her speech had become slow and unclear, both signs of a stroke(中风). By the time she was rushed to the hospital, Emily had lost her ability to speak completely, but after running some tests, doctors ruled out the stroke, instead blaming her voice loss on some sort of injury to her brain.
After spending three weeks in the hospital, Emily Egan was still unable to speak and relied only on basic sign language she’d picked up at work and a text-to-speech app on her phone to communicate. A doctor encouraged her to go on a vacation in Thailand she and her husband had already booked, and to try and relax as much as possible. She did just that and a few days into the vacation, she started to speak again.
"I was so thrilled when my voice started coming back but now I don’t even discern the voice that comes out of my mouth. It doesn't sound like me," Egan said. Ever since her voice came back, she's taken time off work because stress only makes her condition worse.
What has happened to Emily sounds shockingly similar to that of Michelle Myers, an Arizona woman who never traveled outside of America, but woke up to speaking with many accents-British, Irish and Australian-after experiencing severe headaches.
1. Why is Emily Egan considered a Russian immigrant?| A．She resembles a Russian very much. |

【推荐2】A well-dressed man entered a famous jewelry shop. He explained that he wished to buy a pearl（珍珠）for his wife’s birthday.

Just when the jeweler had given up hope, a little old lady came into his store. To his great surprise, she pulled the perfect pearl from her purse.” “I don’t like to part with it”, she said sadly. “I got it from my mother, and my mother got it from hers. But I really need the money”.

【推荐2】When I was in primary school, sometimes I would meet a girl of the same age as me. Lisa was never active, but she was always very sweet and nice. In the 5th grade she came to my class. She was absent a lot. and one day I had the courage to ask why. She told me she was sick, and she explained she wore a wig because her medicine made her lose her hair. We left it at that.
Anytime Lisa came to class seldom would hang with her on the playground. I received much ridicule from my friends for this because they thought I was ignoring them for Lisa. My family education taught me to be nice, and I felt Lisa's needs were much more important than others I knew.
It had been months since Lisa was in our class, and one day our teacher was crying. She explained Lisa died the day before and would no longer be our classmate. She told us Lisa had fought a battle (斗争) with cancer for years.
I was shocked. Lisa never spoke of her illness as if it could kill her. Well, all these years I have kept Lisa in my mind and heart. When I go through the important events in my life, I think of
Lisa.

【推荐3】Dogs are considered by many to be man’s best friend and with millions of dogs owned by families in the US, it is highly likely that many dogs are in need of some amount of training. Since dogs can hear sounds at much higher frequencies (频率) than humans, there is a wonderful tool for the training of a dog. It is an app (应用程序) called the Dog Whistle. This isn’t your typical whistle in that it produces sounds at a frequency that is unable to be heard by humans. This unique app will allow you to train your dog without the need of a dog whistle.
The Dog Whistle free app was created by an app developer Maoli Wang specifically for dog owners who are looking for a way to communicate with their dogs in order to be able to either train them or alert (使警觉) them when the noise around is too great for them to hear you call them. By simply fixing the app on your iPhone, it will immediately turn itself into a dog whistle.
The app includes a very powerful system that is able to create different tones ranging from 16,000 to 40,000 Hz in order for a dog to be able to hear it. The app also has an on-screen sound meter in order for the user to monitor the sound level being produced. In that way, they can decide on which frequency works best for their dog. What’s more, the app easily produces the requested tones at the frequencies necessary to be used to communicate with your dog by simply tapping the screen of your phone.
The app was designed to be used in place of a dog whistle in order to get your dogs attention when it is too noisy around them. The sound produced through the app is at a level that only dogs are able to hear and they will respond to the sound. If you own a dog and are having behavioral issues with them, you would surely benefit from the Dog Whistle free app available by clicking here.
