5 . Aguolieha, a 13-year-old girl living in a mountain village in Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture (凉山彝族自治州), used to spend her free time chatting, jumping and running around the hills and cutting grass for pigs. But now, she could go to big cities and even go abroad to take part in basketball games.
There are some other children like Aguolieha. Their change can be attributed to (归因于) this area’s strong basketball tradition and especially to their basketball coach Waeramu (Amu).
Coach Amu fell in love with the sport when he was a little boy. So he chose to study physical education at university. After graduation, he once worked in a city like his classmates. But he soon realized that it wasn’t his dream. He took a risk and moved back home to teach local kids how to play basketball professionally (专业地).
However, it wasn’t easy. With hard work, Amu successfully made the locals believe that leaving the mountain wasn’t the only way out. And the number of team members was slowly increasing. He now works as a full-time coach and acts as a bridge between the village and the outside world for the kids. Since black hawks (鹰) are the symbol of the Yi people, he named the team the Blackhawks.
The Blackhawks are a team of, and for, the children of Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture. Their love for basketball brought them joy and gave them another option. They can still leave the mountain if they want to, not for their livelihood (生计), but to meet other kids in the games. Aguolieha wants to become a basketball coach like Amu when she grows up, to help the next generation (代) of kids shine.

6 . Connor Halsa is a 15-year-old boy. One day, he caught a wallet while fishing with his family on Lake of the Woods. Connor opened the wallet and found there was some money in it. He showed everyone the wallet. Then they took out the money and put it all on the ground to make it dry.
There was a total of $2,000 inside the wallet. “My dad said we should give the wallet back to the owner. We did it. We found a business card in the wallet and called the number. At last, we got in touch with the owner, who was a farmer named Jim Denney,” Connor said.
