2 . The cost of living crisis is causing suffering for millions this winter. One in five people are worried about where their next meal will come from. Parents who live near you are burdened with anxiety about how they will afford to feed their children. Families are struggling and don’t know where to turn. Yet while people go hungry, three million tonnes of surplus(剩余的) food is being wasted every year.
Fare Share is a national charity working to get that food to people who are struggling—but we need your help. A gift of £90 could provide three meals a day to a family of four for a whole month. Plus, you may be entitled to recover 25p of tax on every £1 you give as gift money.
Your gift will help us redistribute food to our network of 8,500 local charities and community groups across the UK. You’ll also help people to access other services and support through these groups, strengthening communities and easing loneliness through food.

4 . Do you want to be a billionaire? Most of us can’t live like billionaire Microsoft cofounder Bill Gates, but we can read like him. Gates recommended four books.
Leonardo da Vinci, by Walter Isaacson
The bestselling biographer of Steve Jobs and Albert Einstein researched deeply into Da Vinci’s contributions beyond art, highlighting the breadth of his scientific, technological, and creative output.
The Best We Could Do: An Illustrated Memoir, by Thi Bui
Gates called this graphic novel “really impressive”. Bui is the daughter of Vietnamese refugees who came to America after the fall of Saigon and becoming a parent inspired her to look into her own parents’ miserable history.
Lincoln in the Bardo, by George Saunders
Saunders, a longtime short story writer, won high praise for this novel. The book imagines the ghosts that haunt (出没于) the basement of Willie Lincoln, Abraham Lincoln’s son, who died at 11 in real life. “Willie’s death after the Civil War made the president have a new understanding of the grief he’s creating in other families by sending their sons off to die in battle,” said Gates.
Origin Story: A Big History of Everything, by David Christian
This new book is by the creator of Big History, a free, online social studies’ course. It traces history in wide, sweeping movements, starting with the Big Bang, and it provides, in effect, a short course in modern science. This is a brief history of the universe.

“Critic’s Pick. The movie is extremely emotional(like a Toni Morrison novel or a Mary Oliver poem).” LISA KENNEDY, THE NEW YORK TIMES Raven Jaskson *2023 *U.S. *97 minutes |
2023 Gotham Award Nominee for Breakthrough Figure(Raven Jackson)
One of the most visually striking, profoundly moving American moviemaking debuts(首次亮相) in years, Raven Jackson’s All Dirt Roads Taste of Salt is an eye-catching immersion into a young woman’s inner world, filmed and edited with an extraordinary attention to the tiniest detail. This impressionistic journey skips ahead and back through decades to tell the story of Mack, whose upbringing in rural Mississippi is touched by grace, dotted with heartbreak, and always carried high in the sky by the surrounding natural beauty. As she ages, she loses loved ones and gains others, while making decisions that change the course of her life, and that of her beloved sister. Relying on sounds and images to tell her story, and employing minimal dialogue, Jackson has created something breathtakingly quiet and ultimately transporting a spiritual respect to the moments, feelings, and connections that make a life. An A24 release.
