Fifteen years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One day I went to pick up a passenger (乘客) at 2: 40 am. When I arrived there, I walked to the door and knocked.
After a while, the door opened. A small woman stood before me. She was more than eighty years old. By her side was a big bag.
When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address (地址), and then asked, “Could you drive through the city?”
“It’s not the shortest way,” I answered quickly.
“Oh, I know,” she said, “I’m on my way to a hospice (临终安养院). I don’t have any family left. The doctor says I don’t have much time left.”
I quietly turned off the meter (计程表). For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighbourhood where she had lived.
We drove to the address she had given me. “How much do I pay you?” she asked. “None,” I said.
“You have to make a living.” she answered.
“Oh, there are other passengers.” I answered.
Almost without thinking, I gave her a hug. She said, “You gave an old woman a moment of happiness.”

Lei Feng lost his parents when he was very young. His neighbors brought him up. He became a soldier at the age of 19. He helped many people during his 22 years of life. He passed away (去世) more than 60 years ago. But the “Lei Feng spirit (精神) ” still inspires (激励) Chinese people to do volunteer work.
Lei Feng often spent his spare time and money in helping people in need. He did many good deeds (善举) in his life. For example, he gave his own money to the parents of another soldier, and bought tickets for a woman he didn't know without telling her his name. Lei Feng hardly ever spoke about what he did. After he died, people found his diary and learned about him. “There is a limit (限度) to one's life, but no limit to serving the people,” Lei Feng once said in his diary.
In 1963, Chairman Mao Zedong called on (号召) the nation to learn from Lei Feng. Lei Feng is more than a name in China; he’s a symbol of selflessness (无私). Lei Feng is a role model and all Chinese young people can learn from him. The spirit of Lei Feng will always be with us.

In winter, it is always very cold outside, while there are some people who make the season warm by offering help. This time, the 14-year-old teenager Wang Minran brought warmth to us.
That was a cold night and it was already 10 p.m. A 3-year-old girl played outside a restaurant and suddenly she fell into a 20-meter-deep well(井) by accident. Hearing that, people around soon gathered and tried to save her. Four excavators(挖掘机) were even prepared. However, the well was too narrow for an adult to get in. It almost drove the girl’s father mad. He tried to get in the well but the rescuers(救援人员) stopped him. As the girl’s crying became weaker and weaker, everyone was very worried but could do nothing.
Just at that time, Wang Minran appeared and volunteered to have a try. He was slim enough to get in the well. He was sent into the well from the mouth of it several times. Although it was very difficult, he didn’t give up and finally tied the rope on to the girl. Through his efforts, the rescuers pulled them out of the well and the girl was saved successfully.
The teenage hero is a middle school student. From him, we can see a warm winter and a promising(有希望的) generation(一代).

【推荐3】One day, my father and I were in line to buy tickets for the circus（马戏表演）. And a family was standing in front of us. The family had eight children. Their clothes were not expensive but clean. The children talked about the clowns（小丑）, elephants, monkeys and other things excitedly. It was their first time to go to the circus.
The ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted. He answered, “I want eight children’s tickets and two adults’ tickets, so I can take my family to the circus.”
The ticket lady told him the price. The man’s wife lowered her head and there was no smile on the man’s face. He quietly asked, “How much did you say?”
The ticket lady said the price again. The man didn’t have enough money. How could he tell his eight kids the bad news? My dad put his hand into his pocket and pulled out a $20 bill and dropped（使......落下）it on the ground. (In fact, we were not rich!) Then my dad said, “Excuse me, Sir, this dropped out of your pocket.”
The man knew what was happening. He looked into my dad’s eyes, held（握住）my dad’s hand in his, and took the $20 bill. “Thank you, Sir, thank you. This really means a lot to me and my family.”
My father and I went back home. We didn’t go to see the circus that night, but we didn’t care.

【推荐1】All over the world, children in hospital are getting a new kind of medicine: laughter. Lucy works for Theodora Children's Trust. She is one of many clown (小丑) doctors who bring a smile to the faces of sick children.
I'm a clown doctor. I call myself Dr LooLoo. I spend two days a week in children's hospitals with my friend Dr Chequers. We make funny faces, tell jokes, and do magic tricks (把戏). As I walk into a ward (病房), I shake hands with the kids and sing songs. We take special balloons to make "balloon animals" and tell funny stories about them. We often meet kids who look really sick at first, then we go back the next week and they're running about, shouting "Hi there, Dr LooLoo! Hi Dr Chequers!"
I'm naturally a very cheerful person. I've always been a clown. In fact, my father was a clown and I started working with him when I was eight years old. I knew it was just the job for me. I became a clown doctor because I think it's a great way to cheer up sick children in hospital.
At lunchtime we eat in the hospital dining hall and that's really useful because we meet the nurses and doctors. They tell us about some kids who they think will benefit(获益) from a clown doctor's visit. For example, if a child is afraid, perhaps he's being given an injection (注射) or some medicine, we'll visit him and take his attention, then the nurse can do her job.
At about six o'clock, Dr Chequers and I change our clothes. We're very tired. At weekends we are often asked to take part in events (公开活动) to raise money for Theodora Children's Trust. Being a clown doctor is very tiring, but it makes the worries of everyday life seem small. All in all, I feel lucky to do this job.

My experiences in England
I went to England last year. I enjoyed my stay, and I noticed something interesting with the English way of life. For example, you must say Mr or Mrs when you meet someone for the first time. When you get to know each other better or when they ask you to, you can just use their first names.
One day, we visited some friends and had afternoon tea together. Afternoon tea is not just a drink but a light meal at around 4 p.m. 我们吃了三明治和一个大的水果蛋糕。In England, you usually drink tea with milk. So I tried to drink tea with milk too.
Fish and chips is traditional food in England. You can buy it and eat it in special fish and chip shops on the high street, or you can take it away and eat it with your fingers! It is delicious! At the bus stop, you must not push your way onto the bus. You need to stand in a line and wait your turn.
Sometimes people are slow to get on the bus. Once I noticed a gentleman touch a young man on the shoulder, smile politely and say, “Excuse me! Are you waiting for this bus?” He was really polite.

When we see a stranger in trouble, we have two choices. Some people are willing to give a hand. But others may choose to take no notice. If I were in this situation, I would help the stranger without doubt.
Some people may think it is unwise (不明智的) to do this. We have all heard stories about people who are blackmailed (敲诈) after offering help to a stranger. But on the other hand, helping others is an action to share kindness. There is a saying: Give roses to others and the lasting fragrance (芳香) will remain in your hand. Indeed, helping others can allow us to help ourselves. Any of us could end up in a situation where we need help from our family, friends or even strangers.
A story might explain it better. Once, an old man and his wife were traveling and wanted to find a room to stay in for the night. However, when they walked into the only hotel they could find, they were told that no rooms were available. The couple were disappointed and said nothing. But before they left, the owner of the hotel advised the couple to sleep in his room. Then they could sleep comfortably for the night. The husband offered money, but the owner refused. Years later, the couple invited the owner of the hotel to go to a hotel in New York. When the owner got there, he found the couple had built the hotel in his name because of what he did to the couple years ago.
We all have our own reasons for helping others. Don’t be afraid of reaching and touching someone’s life. You never know whose heart you may be touching.
Will you help a stranger in trouble? Someone says “Yes” while someone says “No”. Without ______, if you ask me what I choose to do, I will help the person. The reason why some people refuse to help is that someone is blackmailed by bad people after they offer help. However, helping others is an action to share ______. Once, a couple needed a room in a hotel for the night. But no rooms were ______. Unexpectedly, the owner offered his room to the couple so that they could sleep ______. Many years later, the owner was invited to a hotel that the couple had built in his name for what he ______. As an old saying goes, “Give roses to others and the lasting fragrance will remain in your hand.” Let’s take action and don’t be ______ to help others. |

【推荐1】My older cousin Charlie was always up for an adventure. Then, one day, he had a snowmobile accident that changed his life. The doctors said that he might never walk again. Charlie said they were wrong.
Charlie is a big guy who is more than six feet tall and weighs 260 pounds. His size, along with his black hair, makes him look strong. He likes to wear tight T-shirts to show off. These days, Charlie is wearing baggy clothes to cover up the scars (伤疤) on his legs. It was hard to move around with his crutches (拐杖). The doctors aren’t sure when or if Charlie will ever fully recover (恢复).
For me, the best thing about Charlie is that he doesn’t give up easily. In the beginning, when Charlie was in hospital, he pushed himself hard to practise walking again. When the doctor told Charlie to take a break, my cousin would say, “No way, man! I want to do this now.” Charlie kept pushing himself. Before long he was getting around pretty well without any help. However, I know Charlie.
He’s not going to stop until he can walk without his crutches.
Before the accident, Charlie liked riding his snowmobile and his motorcycle. These days he’s finding other ways to keep active. When the whole family got together during vacation, Charlie couldn’t play on our pickup football team. That didn’t stop him. He did a super job of teaching. My cousin Charlie has taught me two important lessons. First, I realize I should check out all the safety rules before I try something dangerous. Second the best way to get through bad times is to have the right attitude (态度). Charlie’s attitude is just as strong as he is. I believe that someday Charlie will walk the way he did before, just like he says he will.
1. What happened to Charlie?
Liu Qingyi, a 16-year-old girl from Central China’s Henan Province, won the global breakdance competition at the Outbreak Europe 2022 in Slovakia on August 7th, becoming the first Chinese B-girl to ever win the world breakdance top-level competition. It is a major breakthrough!

Liu’s amazing story all started six years ago when she saw a group of people dancing in the street. She was very excited about the performers’ cool and amazing dance and looked forward to joining them.
“I’ve been busy in many hobbies like playing the guitar, boxing and so on. Hip-hop is my true love.” Liu said. “In order to achieve my dream, I work hard and hold it on. Being able to turn my true love into a career (职业) makes me a lucky person.”

Computer games are just fun. I started playing them a few years ago. And I become really good at them. Some of my classmates think that I’m quite special. What’s so special about that?
One day I was having lunch at school. A girl I didn’t know came and sat next to me “What do you do for fun?” She asked. “I am a gamer,” I said in a low voice. “A gamer!” She couldn’t believe what I was saying and she had a good laugh about it, with all the apple pie out of her mouth.
Most people think gaming is for boys not for girls. Maybe I should cut my hair short and change my action so that I look like a boy.
In fact, most boys don’t feel there is anything wrong with my hobby. I know many boy gamers-some online and some face to face. None of them think badly about me being a girl gamer.
Playing computer games is also a kind of relaxation. I don’t know why people feel strange about girls who play games. Girls who play games do it for the same reason as boys do-it’s something fun to do for you like shopping in your spare time.
Computer games are just fun. And I really do well Playing computer games is also makes me |
