A 2-year-old boy is being described as a hero after using Face Time to save his mother after she was badly hurt.
According to a report from KGUN, Laura was trying to stop a fight between two dogs when one of the dogs bit part of her middle finger almost completely off.
Laura tried to call 911 herself, but she said her hands were too badly hurt to make the call. “I asked my daughters to call 911, but they’re four, and they were quite afraid to even touch the phone, because it was covered in my blood.” Laura told KGUN.
The mother continued to lose a lot of blood and thought she would go into a deep sleep—until her 2-year-old son Bentley came up with a dishcloth from the kitchen. After cleaning some of the blood off his mother’s iPhone, Bentley continued to use Face Time to call Laura’s friend Connie.
“All I could see was his little forehead (前额). I said ‘Hi Bentley’ and it was quiet for a little while. Then I heard Laura shouting.” Connie told KGUN.
Connie then called 911, and Bentley unlocked the door to let firefighters into the house.
Laura told KGUN she was very thankful for her little hero and had taught all of her children how to call 911 since then.Laura was badly hurt when she was _______.

| Winter is cold, with piles of snow, When rain falls and no trees grow. For kids it’s the snow they desire, And cups of cocoa before the fire. When winter is gone, the grass grows, Roses and trees, light wind blows The bees are buzzing, the birds are singing, Sheep are grazing and cow bells are ringing. And then the sun starts to shine too brightly, It is so hot that fans are put on nightly. And then it’s off to the beach or pool, Where people swim about just to keep cool. All the leaves on the trees turn golden-brown, And when on the ground make a big sound. In autumn a lot of money he spends, For clearing leaves on the backyards. Each season has its own goods and its bads, But since they are different I am glad. |

Every year in April, students at Renmin University of China have more pleasure than other students in Beijing. Why? Because they get a week off in the middle of the term, the so-called(所谓) spring break.
“It’s been a tradition of our school for years,” said Wang Yueran, 20, a student at Renmin University. He organized a weeklong trip to Sichuan with 12 classmates last year.
Besides having fun during the spring break, field trips, voluntary work, and social projects are all on students’ to-do lists as well. The Chinese proverb says “reading 10,000 books and traveling 10,000 miles”. It means experience is as important as theory. But while Chinese universities have the tradition of spring outings, what’s the aim of making spring break?
Qin Jianguo, from the student affairs office at Shenzhen University, thinks the idea of the spring break in some universities in China comes from the intention(目的) of pushing students out of the ivory tower(象牙塔) to get experience in their life. Many countries have similar vacations in the middle of the semester for students to do things they like. Taking Japan as an example, instead of partying like the US, many Japanese students choose to work as interns(实习生) to have some ideas of their future jobs.
Besides Renmin University, only a few other universities in China, such as Yantai University, have a spring break for their students. Wei Xiang, a professor at Beijing International Studies University, said that the spring break is a good experiment for universities to give students more choices to arrange their own leisure(休闲) and study activities.Why do students at Renmin University of China have more pleasure than other students in Beijing in April?
At least how many things are included on students’ to-do lists ?
According to Qin Jianguo, what is the purpose of the spring break in some universities?
How do many Japanese students get prepared for their future during the spring break?
Do most Chinese universities have spring break now?
