Sing a Song of People by Lois Lenski
Sing a song of people Walking fast or slow； People in the city Up and down they go． 5 People on the sidewalk， People on the bus； People passing，passing， In back and front of us． People on the subway 10 Underneath the ground． People riding taxis Round and round and round． People with their hats on， Going in the doors； 15 People with umbrellas When it rains and pours． |
People in tall buildings And in stores below； Riding elevators 20 Up and down they go． People walking singly， People in a crowd； People saying nothing， People talking loud． 25 People laughing，smiling， Grumpy people too； People who just hurry And never look at you! Sing a song of people 30 Who like to come and go； Sing of city people You see but never ____! |

On March 10，2019，eight﹣year﹣old Tani won the New York Chess Championship （纽约象棋冠军赛）of his age group． But the boy， who was homeless at the time， began learning the game less than a year ago．
Tani and his family arrived in New York City from Africa in 2017． A church helped him enter the primary school， P．S.116． Here the gifted boy was first introduced to chess by a part﹣time teacher Makofsky， owner of a chess club． Interested in the game， the seven﹣year﹣old asked his mother to allow him to join the club． Not able to afford the chess classes， she emailed Makofsky． To her surprise and joy， Makofsky agreed that Tani could learn it for free．
Though the chess club helps， it's largely believed that Tani's success lies in his hard work． The boy practices the game for many hours a day on the floor with his board． Every Saturday， Tani goes to a free 3﹣hour class to improve his game skills．
Not surprisingly，Tani's story， first reported by The New York Times， has brought him great support from the American public． Soon after the young boy won the New York Championship， Makofsky began a GoFundMe activity for Tani and his family so that he could continue his chess journey． It raised ＄200，000 in just ten days， far more than they expected． And the money keeps coming． But the family donates （捐赠）most of the money to the church and to those poor families!
Tani has also received offers from three famous private schools in New York． However， the family have politely refused all of them and chosen to continue Tani's education at P．S.116．
The young boy's story also caught the eye of Bill Clinton，the 42nd US President． "Tani，you're an example of a winning spirit ﹣ in chess and in life． I'd love to meet you，" he said on his Facebook．
While excited about his new life，Tani is ready to meet great challenges （挑战）．He is busy preparing for the 2019 National Primary Championships． Winning the competition will bring the chess player closer to his dream of becoming the world's youngest chess grandmaster （大师）． The record has been kept for 17 years by the Russian chess player Karjakin， who won the title at the age of 12．

In the park，you see a group of people，all looking up at the sky． Without thinking about it， you look upwards， too． Why？ In the concert，someone begins to clap and suddenly the whole room joins in． You do， too． Why？
Sometimes we feel we are acting correctly when we do the same as others． The more people follow an idea， the better or truer we think the idea is． It's the social proof （社会认同感）that works．
The scientist Asch carried out an experiment． It shows how social proof can influence us． In a room， a man is shown Line 1，and next to it are three lines （A，B，C）． A is longer，C is shorter and B is as long as Line 1． He must tell which of the three lines is as long as Line 1． When the man is alone，he gives the correct answer B． Then， five other men enter the room， and each of them gives the answer C as they were told to． Now the man changes his idea and gives the answer C． Asch got the same result many times among different subjects （实验对象）．
Why do we act like this？Well，in the past， following others was a way to keep from danger．Suppose that 5000 years ago you were hunting （打猎） with friends．Suddenly，they all ran away．What would you have done？ Would you have stayed？ No，you would have run，too．We are descendants （后代） of those who copied others' action． It is so deeply planted in our mind that we still use it now．
Social proof has special power．The advertising industry，for example，often makes use of it．So be careful whenever a company says its product is "the most popular"．

A．it's important to run with others anytime
B．products in the advertisement are the best
C．we mustn't copy others' action to keep safe
D．we need to think twice before following others
It was Day 1 of our vacation on Cortes， a beautiful quiet island． "iPhone， iPhone， iPhone，" my son kept moaning （呻吟）． In front of him was a big window facing the blue ocean． And a cool gentle wind was coming in from the door． Clearly， he saw and felt none of it．
Back at home， I'd soon give up and hand the phone over to him after five minutes of listening to this kind of moaning．

▲I walked down the grass road to the beach and looked out to the sea． My 6﹣year﹣old daughter and my husband were drawing on pieces of wood． They were doing just fine．
On Day 2，we spent the whole morning digging for shells （贝壳）．This time， my son joined us． He collected shellfish and other sea treasures． When we got back to our little wood house， I gave my son a book， and put him on the lovely garden chair． It was almost dinner when he looked up．
The next few days passed in peace．
On Day 6， my son was lying beside me on the beach， watching the sun going down． He was playing with the sand． And there was something shining in his eyes． I realized how time slowed down for both of us． It was exactly what I wanted． Finally， we were able to sit quietly without thinking about screens， phone calls and e﹣mail．
A week away from all the electronics and life is good．
