When I was a boy, I had a big appetite(食欲). I was lucky enough to have my grandma，because she always cooked delicious food for me. At that time, I lived at school. I could only go back home on vacation. But whenever I got the chance to go back home, I would like to stay in my grandma's home.
When my grandma cooked in the kitchen, I would like to help her. I helped her wash vegetables, clean dishes and so on. Then I set the table and waited for her to eat together. It was really a warm memory (回忆) for me.
My grandma always tried to create new dishes. Every time after she cooked a new dish，she would let me try first. Then she would wait for my comments（评论）for the dish. After I told her how I liked the dish, she would write down some notes as soon as she could on a small notebook.
When I grew up, I went to another city to work. Although I tried a lot of food in many expensive restaurants, in my eyes, my grandma was the best cook in the world.

Many kids do housework such as doing the dishes, making the bed, and folding the clothes. In exchange, they get some money or computer time.
Paying kids for housework is one of the most popular topics, especially at a time when everyone is more careful about money. Some parents think since adults are paid to do their jobs, 我们应该为日常的家务向孩子付费。
But some people don’t think kids should get a reward(报酬) for doing housework. Susie Walton, an expert, believes that by rewarding kids, parents are sending a message that work isn’t worth doing unless you get something in return. “Running any kind of housework is a team effort,” Walton said. “A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house, and family decide how they want their home to look, and how they are going to keep it looking like what they want.”
Other people believe that getting a reward encourages kids to do housework, and it also teaches them real world lessons about why we need to work to get money. There are also apps that give kids points and digital gifts that can be redeemed(兑现) either online or in the real world. “Our goal is to give kids lawful power so they can get rewards,” says Chris Bergman. “And kids need rewards to help encourage them.”

I’m Amy, an Australian. I’ve got a sister and a cute dog.
My family live near the beach. In summer, we often spend all the day on the beach. We swim, build sandcastles and play with our beach ball. Sometimes I look after my little sister because she can’t swim. The sun is very strong in Australia, so we always wear our hats. Our dog also wears a small hat. It looks really funny.
We usually have a picnic on the beach. That’s my favourite. Each time our dog ties to eat our picnic, Mum can always get the picnic from it. After the picnic, Mum buys us ice creams. I often wait with my sister in a beach chair and my dad sleeps in a hammock (吊床) between two trees. We eat the delicious ice creams and then call it a day.

Ding Dawei, 40, has been teaching in West China for 14 years. He came to China in 1994. After he had taught in Guangdong for a year, he decided to go to West China because there lacked teachers. He found a job in a university in Gansu. At that time, his monthly salary(薪水) was 1,200 yuan. But after he knew that it was a very good salary there, he wanted to reduce it to 900 yuan.“I don’t spend much; I only spend money on food, stamps, and telephone bills. Actually, 400 yuan is enough for me.”
Just as Dawei said, he lived a very simple life. All he had was a family album, a hat of his favourite American football team, two sets of sports suits, an old pair of sports shoes, and some necessities of life. What’s worth mentioning is that he always carries a Chinese national flag with him to remind himself to try his best to teach.
Many people call him an American “Lei Feng”. What does Dawei think of the nickname then? “That’s right,” he says,“Lei Feng did what he should do. Every one of us should do like him.”
