2 . Purnota Dutta, an MBA from India, took a break from her career in 2010, spending time with her newborn daughter. This life-changing time led her to found Cuddles Foundation — a nonprofit organization focused on providing food and nutrition (营养) to poor children battling cancer in government cancer hospitals.
At the hospital, she saw so many children with cancer, and a baby who was around the same age as her child. Moved by what she saw, Purnota spoke to the social worker about how she could extend support to these children. While they had enough financial resources for treatment, they needed money for nutrition.
The couple did their best to meet their essential requirements. However, it soon surpassed what they could afford, and they started tapping into their networks to raise money. At first, Cuddles Foundation joined hands with Dr Brijesh Arora, who was leading the program for nutrition for children with cancer in India. “Then came Unlimited India, which got me on board as an investee (被投资者),” she adds..
At present, Cuddles Foundation’s FoodHeals programme bridges the nutrition gap in children with cancer in 35 government and charity hospitals in 20 cities across India. Over the past year, it provided nutrition guidance to over 6,000 patients.
Swara is among many children supported by the foundation. The five-year-old from Baramati was diagnosed with cancer. Her father had spent all of his savings on her medical tests and travel. After a year of regular guidance and nutrition support, Swara has entered the recovery stage of treatment and is back home in Baramati.
She hopes, with the support of more partners, Cuddle Foundation will be able to reach its great aims.

3 . The benefits of regular exercise are well documented but there’s a new bonus to add to the ever-growing list. New researchers found that middle-aged women who were physically fit could be nearly 90 percent less likely to develop dementia in later life, and as they did, it came on a decade later than less sporty women.
Lead researcher Dr. Helena Horder, of the University of Gothenburg in Sweden, said : "These findings are exciting because it’s possible that improving people's cardiovascular (心血管的)fitness in middle age could delay or even prevent them from developing dementia. "
For the study, 191 women with an average age of 50 took a bicycle exercise test until they were exhausted to measure their peak (最大值的) cardiovascular capacity. The average peak workload was measured at 103 watts.
A total of 40 women met the criteria for a high fitness level, or 120 watts or higher. A total of 92 women were in the medium fitness category; and 59 women were in the low fitness category, defined as a peak workload of 80 watts or less, or having their exercise tests stopped because of high blood pressure, chest pain or other cardiovascular problems.
These women were then tested for dementia six times over the following four decades. During that time, 44 of the women developed dementia. Five percent of the highly fit women developed dementia, compared to 25 percent of the women with medium fitness and 32 percent of the women with low fitness.
"However, this study does not show cause and effect between cardiovascular fitness and dementia, it only shows an association. More research is needed to see if improved fitness could have a positive effect on the risk of dementia and also to look at when during a lifetime a high fitness level is most important. " She also admitted that a relatively small number of women were studied, all of whom were form Sweden, so the results might not be applicable to other groups.

6 . 15 year-old Maddi went to an evening party with some boys without parental permission, playing late into the night. So her dad gave her a choice---either handing over her phone for a month, or giving him right to use her social media for two weeks. She chose the latter, giving Dad the keyword to her TikTok, and the Internet is so appreciative.
Maddi’s dad began to take over her social media early in November, so her followers could expect “some amazing posts, photos and short videos from her dad”. On November 11, Larry, Maddi’s dad, had already begun his funny performance to embarrass his teen daughter, by posting a selfie(自拍), titled “Felt cute. Might delete later”. But that was only the beginning, and by her dad's third post, the teen was already begging him to take away her phone for a month.
“After the first day, Maddi changed her mind and wanted to choose the one month,” the girl’s mother Tawnya couldn’t help laughing when interviewed by TODAY.com. “Larry told her, ‘No. I’m too fascinated. I have too many ideas. We’re sticking with the two weeks.’ He’s loving it. I think he’s gonna make his own TikTok account(账号) when this is over.”
From posing in a tight top and wearing a blonde wig(假发), to ballet dance, it seemed like there was nothing the 43-year-old daddy wouldn’t do to entertain, and Maddi’s friends and social media followers were attracted.
Over the two weeks, Madddi’s Instagram fans jumped from around 2,700 to 12,700, at the time of this writing, so she should probably thank her dad for the punishment. The only question is, can she continue Dad’s style? She’ll have to try, as many of her social media followers are already asking her to “bring Dad back”.
“We’re always down to embarrass our kids!” Tawnya Ford said; adding that her husband often picks up their kids from school dressed as Donald Duck.

Robert was a carpenter (木匠). He was living in a village. His mother died a long time ago. His aged father, Kuppan, lived with Robert. Kuppan was very weak. He could not even walk well. He was so weak because Robert did not give him enough food.
Robert had a son. His name was Michael. Michael was just ten years old. He was a very good boy. He loved his grandfather. He had great respect for his grandfather. We did not like his father’s attitude and character to his grandfather, because his father was treating his grandfather cruelly. One day Kuppan was eating his food in the small plate that his son had given to him. The plate fell and broke into pieces. The food also fell on the floor. Robert was working at the other end of the room. He saw the broken plate. He was very angry with his father and used very sharp words to blame his father. The old man felt bad about what happened. He was sorry for his mistake. Robert’s words wounded him very deeply.
Michael saw this. But he was afraid to speak against his father. He was sad about his grandfather. But he was not powerful to stand in support of his grandfather. Then he got an idea.
Paragraph 1The next day, Michael took some of his father’s tools and a piece of wood.
