The simplest way to say it is this: I believe in my mother. My belief began when I was just a kid, who dreamed of becoming a doctor.
My mother was a . Through her work, she observed that people spent a lot more time reading than they watching television. She announced that my brother and I could only watch two to three pre-selected TV during the week. With our time, we had to read two books each from the Detroit Public Library and written book reports to her. She would mark them up with check marks and highlights. Years later we realized her marks were a . My mother was illiterate（文盲）.
When I entered high school I was a(n) student, but not for long. I began to like the fancy clothes. I wanted to the guys. I went from being an A-student to a B-student to a C-student. One night my mother came home from her various jobs and I about not having enough Italian knit shirts. She said, "Okay, I'll give you all the money I have this week scrubbing floors and cleaning bathrooms, and you can buy the family food and pay the bills. With the money , you can have all the Italian knit shirts you want." I was very pleased with that but once I got through allocating（分配）money, there was left. I realized my mother was a financial genius to be able to keep the roof over our heads and any kind of food on the table, let alone buy . I also realized that my wasn't going to get me anywhere. Success required intellectual preparation. I went back to my and became an A-student again, and I realized my dream and I became a doctor.
My story is really my mother's story--a woman with formal education or property who used her position as a parent to change the lives of many people around, especially her children. There is no job more important than . This I believe.

The story happened on a not heavy rainy day.
After class, I took a few bottles to go and some water from the water room. Oh！There were so many people! I had to wait the rain. My hair didn’t get wet because I wore a hat, but my clothes .
When at last it was my ,I filled the bottles as quickly as possible. I began making my way back when I saw a boy towards me. He two umbrellas in his hand. He shouted hello and as he came ,I recognized that it was XiaoBai.
He my classmate for nearly three years but we never more than ten sentences. He was silent but I like talking. We were quite people and had nothing in common. I didn’t him and even didn’t want to see him.
“Hey! What’s wrong?” His words me out of my thought. “I saw you in the rain so I brought you this umbrella. But it seems a little ,your clothes are already wet.”
On hearing this, I was so that I couldn’t say a single word.
“Don’t just stand there. Let’s go!” He said and held the umbrella for me. We walked towards and this time, we talk .
“I know you don’t like me, but I want to with you.” he said, “you may think I am silent, but it is because I can’t find the to say.”
The rain finally stopped and we saw a rainbow in the blue sky. I said to myself, “It is wrong to someone only by his appearance.

For John and Amy, birthdays have always been a big deal—a welcome excuse to celebrate life. When their son, Alex, three in 2005, they invited 20 friends to a nearby park. Not long after that the were brainstorming ways to teach Alex about giving to 1 . “We wanted to do something that would have a(n) on our community（社区）, and that our young child could in. We started wondering what fortunate kids do on their birthdays. The next day, we called a local shelter, and learnt that children typically didn’t do to celebrate at all. No cake. No gifts. No party.” The couple said.
Several weeks later, threw a party at the for the children who had birthdays that month. They decorated, served cake, and danced with 50 kids. Alex helped presents.
22 that first party, the couple have turned their simple idea Birthday Blessings, a non-profit that hosts monthly parties at 10 shelters.
To date, Birthday Blessings (birthdayblessings.org.) has thrown more than 500 at different shelters and handed out 22,000 party to nearly 4,000 homeless children in and around their community.
Birthday Blessings is entirely by volunteers. The charity（慈善）will take almost anything — toys, clothing, candy, baby items— it’s not used. “These kids never get anything new.” John said, “It makes a big to them psychologically.”
Being “part of this labor love” is making an impression on their son Alex. On his seventh birthday, his grandparents sent a check. it, the first thing he said was that he wanted to give half to the birthday kids.

I’m going to give you some pills that should help. I want you to one after dinner and one half an hour you go to bed tonight. Call me tomorrow and tell me you feel.
Mrs. Green telephoned, “Doctor, I had the first night’s sleep in two months. What is in this pills ?” The doctor said, “It is an old formula（配方） I have for years. Just taking them for a week.” Turning to the nurse, he said, “It’s wonderful what a little baking soda（苏打） can do.”
