After graduating from school, I didn’t go directly to university. Instead, I spent a year travelling round the world.
I started my trip in London, the UK. I saw theBig Ben and visited the amazing churches.From there, I flew to Paris, and went down to the south of France, which is famous for its lovely beaches.
Next, I flew to India, and traveled round the country for about three months. Although the cities were crowded, the countryside was the beautiful. I stayed in a small fishing village by the sea and it was the happiest time of my life.
I then came to China, a country I had always wanted to visit. I saw Beijing, of course, and climbed up the Great Wall. I also took a trip to see some villages where I learned a lot about Chinese local customs.

My mother used to ask me what was the most important part of the body． Through the years I would guess at what I thought was the correct answer．
When I was younger， I thought sound was very important to us as humans． So I said， "My ears， Mommy．" She said， "No， many people are deaf． But you keep thinking about it and I will ask you again soon．"
Several years had passed before she asked me again， Since making my first try， I had thought over the correct answer． So this time I told her， "Mommy， sight（视力） is very important to everybody， so it must be our eyes．" She looked at me and told me． "You are learning fast， but the answer is not correct because there are many people who can't see．"
Over the years， Mother asked me a couple more times and always her answer was， "No， but you are getting smarter every year， my boy．"
Then last year， my grandpa died． Everybody was hurt． Everybody was crying at the funeral （葬礼）． My mom looked at me when it was our turn to say our final goodbye to grandpa． She asked me， "Do you know the most important body part yet， my dear？"
I was shocked when she asked me this now． I always thought this was a game between her and me． She saw the confusion （团惑） on my face and told me， "This question is very important． It shows that you have really lived your life．" I saw her eyes in tears．
She said， "My dear， the most important body part is your shoulder．"
I asked， "Is it because it holds up（抬起） your head ？"
She replied， "No， it is because it can hold the head of a friend or a loved one when they cry． Everybody requires a shoulder to cry on sometimes in life， my dear． I only hope that you have enough love and friends that you will have a shoulder to cry on when you require it．"
Then and there I knew the most important body part is not a selfish （白私的） one． It is Sympathetic （体谅的） to the pain of others．

Do you know what makes lightning（闪电）？Why does lightning strike（击打）？
Lightning strikes happen when ice and water in clouds rub（摩擦）together， and cause atmospheric（大气层的）changes． When this happens， it creates a static charge（静电）．Lightning can strike inside the cloud， between two clouds or between a cloud and Earth． It's the last kind of strike that is the most dangerous for humans．
Lightning can be very dangerous． Every year， lightning kills people because it can start big fires or because it reaches a temperature of 28， 000 C． About l， 000people are hit by lightning every year in the United States， and about 100of them die as a result．
Lightning makes people shocked， and it happens all over the world! Scientists think that there are more than three million lightning strikes every day in the world﹣that's thirty strikes every second（秒）． An American mant Roy Sullivan， who worked in a park， survivedfrom the most lightning strikes． Between 1942and 1983， he was hit seven times! And he keeps the highest world record．
Lightning is sure not something to play with． When lightning strikes， it's best to stay inside a large building． To stay safe， do not stand under trees， on hills or near water． Also， do not lie down on the ground， or the electricity may go through you and cause a heart problem．

Recently， my husband and I had the chance to do something good for two people who were complete strangers to us． It made us feel so good to be able to do it that I thought I should share， We were traveling to Thailand on New Year's Day with our family． Since I travel a lot for work， we have had enough flying miles to become the VIP （very important person．） of the flight to enjoy first class（头等舱） seats．
As we were sitting in the very first two seats in the first row of first class waiting for the plane to take off， I heard one of the flight attendants （航班服务员） telling the others that there was a young couple sitting in the back of the plane that had just been married several days before and were going on their honeymoon（蜜月）． They had ordered their flight eight months before but， for some reason， had not been able to get seats together． No one else on the plane wanted to move and the bride（新娘） was in tears．
I turned to my husband and told him what I heard． We agreed without thinking twice and I called the flight attendant over to tell her that we would be happy to give up our seats for this young couple， The flight attendant seemed shocked and amazed and said． "Really？ Are you sure？"
We said． "Sure!"
So， we moved to the back of the plane， I was in a middle seat in the back part and my husband，who is 63， in the window seat of the last row of the plane．
The flight attendants were very thankful for what we had done and cared for us carefully even though we were no longer sitting in first class， and we both made friends with the people sitting around us and had a great flight． I had to go back to the front of the plane to get a forgotten object back during the flight and noticed that the young couple were sitting very close together， happily sipping champagne （品尝香槟）．
It really made my New Year to get on to such a wonderful start!
