【推荐1】In 1971 a young man who grew up very poor was traveling across the country, trying to make a new start for himself. Along the way he had completely run out of money and was forced to spend the night in his car. This continued until one morning, after a week of sleeping in his car, he walked nervously into a restaurant and ordered a big breakfast.
After eating his first good meal in weeks, he found himself lying to the waiter, telling him he had lost his wallet. The waiter, who was also the owner, walked behind the chair where the young had been sitting. He bent down, and came up with a $20 bill that looked as if it had fallen on the floor and said, “Son, you must have dropped this.” the owner said. The young man couldn’t believe his luck! He quickly paid for the breakfast, left a tip, bought gas with the change, and headed West.
On the way out of town, he began to understand what that fellow did. Maybe nobody dropped the money at all. “Maybe that fellow just knew I was in trouble and he helped me in a way that didn’t embarrass(使困窘)me. So I just made a promise to help other people if I can.”
Later, he worked very hard and became a rich man. Now, he lives near Kansas City. Each year he gives away thousands of dollars. He is known as the “Secret Santa” because at Christmas time each year, he personally hands money out to those on the street and at restaurants. Last year he gave more than $50,000 away in Kansas City.

【推荐2】A father from Alabama feels favored after his twin sons’ quick thinking helped save his life last month. Brad Hassig was doing underwater exercise at his home swimming pool, something he said he’d done numerous times before. “We were just swimming. The boys were having fun. I like to do just some calming, breathing exercises in the waters, which involves just sitting underwater,” Hassig said. “I don’t ever remember finishing it.”
Hassig’s 10-year old twin sons Bridon and Christian, as well as an 11 year old neighbor named Sam, were in the pool with him, enjoying the water, when they noticed something was wrong with their dad, who had turned a blue color. They quickly jumped into action, dragging their 185-pound father above water and toward the side of the pool.
“They weigh 80 pounds around, and I weigh 185 pounds. So they should’ t have been able to physically do what they did,” Hassig said. “I mean everything just went as perfectly as it probably had to have.”
Although the boys had no formal CPR (心肺复苏术) training, they remembered what they had seen in the movies. They started chest compressions and mouth-to-mouth and Christian and Sam also ran for help after the boys couldn’t unlock their dad’s phone.
When Hassig came to life, he said he heard his sons calling out to him. “I hear the boys saying, you know, ‘Daddy, come back!’ ‘Daddy, you have to be OK!’ ” he recalled.
Hassig and his sons’ experience calls to mind another recent close call when synchronized swimmer Anita Alvarez lost consciousness during competition and had to be pulled to the surface by her coach, Andrea Fuentes.
Since the incident, Hassig has told others to never swim alone and the family urges people to learn how to do CPR. They’re planning a local, community-wide CPR event for kids and adults to get proper training.

【推荐3】Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro was a goal that first attracted me at age 10, when my Dad uncovered an old projector to show me the slides from his own climb. He climbed to the top in 1978. Twenty years of Kilimanjaro stories and “do as I say, not as I did” training advice later, I followed his footsteps to the roof of Africa.
I went into the long journey expecting cold nights. Dad’s advice to sleep in my clothes saved me on those biting, freezing mornings. I prepared well for those headaches caused by high altitude. What I couldn’t have prepared for on this Kili climb, though, was the need for football shoes.
My husband, his brother, and I stopped at a gas station on the way to the Rongai trail gate to pick up snacks and water for the long journey. Sticking to a shopping list has never been our strong suit, which is one of the many reasons a tiny Manchester United football was the first item on our receipt.
Within minutes, this silly little impulse buy changed the entire dynamic of our trip. Our porters went from cold to smiling as we played with the football alongside the fuel tanks. A full game was held as we hit the Rongai Trail’s first camp. We went from climbing clients to fast friends — and then family — with the nicknames to prove it. Shemeji, Swahili for sister-in-law, became my climbing name (I was “in-law” because the porters saw the boys as brothers).
When I first boarded the flight to Kilimanjaro, I was laser-focused on reaching the summit. But this tiny little football — and the relationships it brought — quickly changed that. Our journey up Kilimanjaro was unlike any climbing experience I’d ever imagined. It’s also one I know my football — loving Dad — who passed away three months before our climb — would have been proud of.

【推荐1】My mom and my grandpa have been making jam(果酱)every summer for more than 20 years. The jam is sweet ,made from local Okanagan fruit. Not only is it delicious but it also helps me remember my childhood. As kids, we traveled to Salmon Arm, B. C. ,every summer to spend it with my grandpa and grandma. Memories of house-boating, fishing, countless hours in the lake, and of course jam-making remain in all our hearts.
We were never part of making jam, but I remember watching my mom and grandpa carry in fresh berries from the car, and then measure and cook. Only breaking to sleep and eat, they would show up two days later tired, sometimes covered with burns, and proud faces. Although at that time I couldn't tell you how the jam was made, I knew that each jar(瓶)was made with love and care. They never sold the jam at any local markets; they kept some for themselves and the rest was given away to friends and family.
One summer, for some reason, they weren't able to make jam. I remember my mom being really sad and I didn't understand till some years later that making jam with her dad wasn't really about the jam at all. It was an occasion (场合),where she had his undivided attention and he, hers. I don't know what they talked about for all those hours, or if they even talked at all, but any silence was filled with feelings of love and happiness.
Now in my mid-30s, my brother, sister and I have our own children to bring to Salmon Arm every summer, it only for a few days. Much has changed but one thing that has not is the jam. Mom and Grandpa disappear for a couple of days to make it. I feel joy watching my mom and grandpa share this time together. It's a tradition that one day my mom will carry forward with me, and many years from now, I will carry forward with my daughter.

【推荐2】Emily and Alex were happy when their family moved to a house with a very big garden. They could climb up trees, grow flowers and even play badminton. They liked to watch the birds flying among the trees in the garden. They even started to put food out to attract more birds.
Everything was fine for a few days until one afternoon there was a strange bumping noise on a window. Emily went outside and found a small bird dead on the grass. Its neck seemed to be broken.
“It must have flown into the window,” Alex said when his sister Emily called him to have a look. “Ah, yes, look here.You can see the mark where it hit the window. There are a couple of tiny feathers stuck (粘贴)on the window.”
“Poor thing!” Emily said.
During the next month, five more birds died in the same way. “Why would they fly to the windows?” they wondered.Finally they found out the truth. When the birds were flying, they couldn’t see into the rooms. All they saw was the reflection (反射)of the garden. They thought that they were flying into trees because they saw trees reflected by the window.
“Something has to be done to save the birds,” the parents decided.
At first, the family tried keeping curtains(窗帘)across the windows, but this made the room dark. Then they bought some strong black paper and cut out the shape of a hawk(鹰). They made six hawks—one for each window. They stuck the hawks to the windows. They looked pretty and did not keep out much light.When the birds saw the hawks, they would fly away.
After that, there were no more dead birds. The family were much happier.

【推荐3】Hi! My name is Rachel. I'm 14 years old, in the eighth grade, and I live on a dairy farm(牛奶场)in Michigan with my dad, mom, grandma and my 12-year-old brother, Andy. I want to tell you what life is like on a dairy farm!
On our dairy farm, we milk about 55 cows twice a day at five o'clock in the morning and five o'clock in the afternoon. We also have quite a few calves, some bulls and dry cows. Calves are babies, bulls are fathers of the calves, and dry cows are the adult cows who are pregnant(怀孕) and close to having their calves. So we don't milk the dry cow.
My brother and I help my dad with evening housework on school days. My mom works for the Michigan Department of Agriculture(密歇根农业部), so she helps out on the weekend. As we are at school or work on weekdays, my grandma helps my dad milk and feed the animals on weekday mornings. All of us are busy, but we all enjoy our farm life!
My favorite part of living on the farm is talking care of the baby animals. What I hate to do is have to get up so early, especially on the weekend!
When it's time to milk the cows, one person has to push the cows into the milk house, and another gets the cows ready for milking. If you look here, you can see milk flowing from the cow into a milk line and to the big milk tank(贮乳槽)in the milk house. It makes you thirsty, doesn't it?
1. Where does Rachel live?She
2. How often do Rachel's family members milk the cows?
They milk them
3. Why don't they milk the dry cows?
They don't milk them
4. Rachel's mom doesn't help with the housework during the week,does she?
5. What do you think of Rachel's family life?
【推荐1】You’re often served by young people at restaurants. But Forget Me Not Cafe in Shanghai is different.
The cafe has eight elderly employees with cognitive impairments (认知障碍) who take turns working with other waiters to help customers.
They often provide basic services for guests, such as pouring water, serving and taking orders.
“The guests are also very tolerant of us, because sometimes we make mistakes,” said Zhu Caiping, one of the elderly employees at the cafe.
Sometimes, they are also invited to take part in welfare activities organized by volunteers, such as baking, dancing and learning English.
“These activities are essential for me. They reactivate my brain,” the 73-year-old said. “What old people like us worry about most is that our brain stagnates (停滞) due to being inactive.”
Because of memory loss, Zhu writes down all the information she wants to remember on sticky notes, such as the names of the volunteers and the teacher as well as English words.
“But I really became happy and confident because of being here,” she said.
In addition to the job opportunities for the elderly, information about cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease is posted on a board outside the restaurant to help people recognize symptoms and seek treatment as soon as possible.
Zeng Rong, a co-founder of the restaurant, said the cafe has had a great impact on elderly people with cognitive impairment.
A 58-year-old woman from Jiangsu province, whose husband brings her to the restaurant, is an example.
“When she came here for the first time, she barely said a word and was indifferent. I told her that she must communicate and gave her homework every time with rewards,” Zhu said.
The woman has since come to the restaurant every Friday, and after several months, her condition has improved.
“She started to comment that the food was ‘delicious’ and speak with others. Moreover, she began to hug me every time,” Zhu said.
“Helping more people like us is the purpose ... and what I am eager to do most,” added Zhu.
Inspired by their kindness, many young people like to come and enjoy the warm atmosphere of the shop.

【推荐2】A North Allegheny senior brings together voices from around the world as part of an online magazine that gives people a chance to share their cultural experiences. Eleanor Park, 16, of McCandless set up The Diversity Story a year ago. People can apply to be staff writers, be interviewed to have an article written about them, or submit (提交) writing, artwork, and photography.
Ms. Park, who plans to study psychology (心理学) in college, said she came up with the idea for the project after talking with a friend from China. “We had been exchanging English lessons for computer science classes last summer,” she said. “While we taught each other, we often talked about our daily lives. Since I grew up among a lot of Chinese cultures that my parents had passed down, I thought I was really familiar with its ins and outs. But it turned out that there was so much I did not fully understand.”
North Allegheny elementary principal (校长) Amanda Mathieson, Ph.D., said Ms. Park showed great leadership and compassion (同情) for other students. She was a judge in The Diversity Story writing competition. “Eleanor’s work and goals over the years have focused on helping English as a Second Language students and encouraging culture sharing in the community. She is a great young person, and I am so lucky to have been part of her educational journey.”
Peyton Klein, founder and director of Global Minds Initiative, which she formed in 2016 as an Allderdice student, said: “Her growing thoughtful project and clear ability to encourage young people are the things we hope to inspire.”
Ms. Park said the most difficult part of the project was taking care of little things, like making timely replies to emails, scheduling interview times for new staff writers or making changes to the website. “Those things add up,” she said. “I’ve found myself often unexpectedly spending hours just emailing people or adding a new website page.”

【推荐3】When I read a post about taking someone to the movies, I was reminded of something that happened a couple of years ago.
I used to drink Cokes and they had a promotion (促销) where there was a code (编码) inside the bottle cap. You went to a website and entered the code and maybe you won something. I won some free Cokes. But then I won the grand prize! I was surprised and pleased.
The grand prize was free movies for a year. They pointed out that one movie a week was that free movies for a year meant. All of the tickets had a deadline (截止日期) later than a year from the day I received them. So I must use them in the following year. I used quite a few by taking friends to movies we all wanted to see.
But the best thing I did with them was that I donated 22 tickets (all I had left by that time) to the local Women's Transition House, a place where women and their children could go when avoiding a bad situation in general and get help to make a new start.
My workplace team had decided to help people in need, so we collected donations for that particular New Year’s Day. I knew that the Women’s Transition House provided some childcare for the women so they could go for job interviews and things like that.
I put those tickets in a box and wrote a note on the outside, asking the Women’s Transition House staff to give movie tickets to women there over the holidays to have something fun to do, with or without their children. It made me really happy to do this.
1. How did the author get the tickets?| A．By visiting a website by chance. | B．By exchanging some Cokes for them. |
