As a parrot. Blu was special for two reasons. First , he had bright blue feathers（羽毛）. He was a rare species（稀有物种）of bird . Second, Blu couldn’t fly. He stayed inside every day and never learned to fly. This bird lived a comfortable life with his owner, Linda, in a small town in Minnesota, US.
Both Blu and Linda thought he was the last one of this kind of bird until one day they got the news – there was another bird of the same kind in Rio de Janeiro（里约热内卢）, a Brazilian city ! It was a girl bird named Jewel.
Blu decided to go to the faraway land to find Jewel. When he arrived there, he fell in love with the beautiful Jewel at first sight.
But soon a group of bad people kidnapped（绑架）the pair , trying to sell them for money . Luckily, with the help of Jewel and some city birds, Blu and Jewel ran away.
Now in a strange country, Blu still had a lot of problems. He had to face his fears and learned to fly to win Jewel’s heart. The bad people were still trying to catch them.

How do you feel when you stay in hospital alone? Jenny, 13, a US student, feels bored. She knows the feeling because she has been in hospital many times herself. One day, she thought of an idea—if patients could get some books to read, they would feel better. So, from May, she and many of her friends began to collect books for hospital patients.
In six months the students collected 1,250 books at school. They decided to donate the books to the North Shore Medical Centre, a children’s hospital next door to their school. “There are books for kids of all ages, from babies up to high school level.” said Jenny.
The students put the books into “early readers”, “middle readers” and “advanced readers”. Then they wrote their best wishes to patients on bookmarks (书签) and letters, put the books in big boxes and donated them to the hospital.
“We wrote things like, “Keep on reading!’ and ‘Hope you feel better!,” said John, 14, Jenny’s brother. “And we also wrote some funny things to make them laugh.”
Frank, 12, and Steven, 14, helped carry 16 large boxes of books into a car. “I think these books will make me a lot of patients feel happy.” said Frank.
