When things around the house stop working，what do you usually do with them？If you're like a lot of people，you probably just throw them away.
In some areas，it's difficult to find people who can make repairs，and fixing things can be quite expensive.Also，some small objects are so inexpensive that it's often easier to just buy a new one.
In 2009，Martine Postma from the Netherlands decided there must be a better way.Her solution was Repair Cafes：places where people can take broken items.There they will find tools，resources and volunteer experts who are ready to help with repairs.
Postma's first Repair Cafe opened on Oct.18，2009，in Amsterdam，and was a huge success.News of the cafe spread，and people began asking how they could start their own.In 2011，Postma set up the Repair Cafe Foundation.This nonprofit organization provides guidance to those hoping to begin their own neighbourhood repair group.
Today，there are about 2，000 Repair Cafes around the world with meetings usually taking place once a month.Around 25 objects are repaired during each meeting.Everything is free，but donations are greatly welcome.
The cafes not only provide help with repairs，they also strengthen community ties.Neighbours get to know one another as they work together on projects.Moreover，valuable knowledge is passed along and preserved.Items are kept rather than thrown away，meaning less rubbish in landfills.

As an exchange student，I studied in France for two years.The first time I took a class in the chemistry lab，I was surprised to find that students were fully "armed".Everyone was wearing goggles（护目镜） and gloves.Safety comes first for science lab class.
My chemistry teacher Mrs.Louise usually gave us the instruction paper the night before the lab class and let us read it.During the class，she first went over the steps and then put us into groups of two to do the experiments （实验）.What was special was that for every lab class，Mrs.Louise changed everyone's lab partner to make them work with different classmates.
The class was often filled with laughter and screams（尖叫）.We once tried to burn the chemicals and watch the colors of the flames （火焰）.Different chemicals produced different colors of flames，including bright orange and dark green.Many students in my class were surprised."Wow!That's so beautiful!" they screamed.Then they excitedly took pictures，posted them online and sent them to their friends.Mrs.Louise didn't get angry with us at all for our "noises".She herself even too photos with us!
After finishing an experiment，we had to write a lab report.If we had a big mistake in the experiment，we needed to analyze （分析）why it happened and what we should do to avoid it next time.The lab reports were very important.They made up around 25% of our term grade.

One evening，Grandad said，"I once had a friend called Day.His first name was Henry，but everyone called him Happy.Happy Day made a very good living.He had been to many places and when he came to a place that he liked，he opened a pet shop and began selling African Ghost Fish.
"According to Happy，these are the world's only invisible fish，and they're especially good pets because they don't need any food.Once a year，the female Ghost Fish lays eggs.Immediately after that，and if everything is completely quiet，she becomes visible.But in a blink（眨眼）of an eye，she's gone again.If you see her，you're extremely lucky for she's the most beautiful creature alive.
"When Happy told his customers this story，his tanks of fish sold very quickly.When they were completely sold out，Happy usually left for another town. "
"Was that because his customers were not satisfied？" We asked.
"Not at all， "Grandad said. "His customers were completely satisfied.Many people told him that they got great pleasure from their invisible fish.It was so relaxing.A few even claimed that they had seen a female Ghost Fish，and it was truly unforgettable.Yes，Happy was a clever man."
"Can you tell us some more about him？" We said.
"Not now， "said Grandad. "I'm tired，and I want a nap（打盹）.Why don't you children go and watch the tank of Ghost Fish in my room？Remember，if you sit quietly and watch really closely，you might even see a female. "
As we rushed excitedly from the room，I heard Grandad whisper， "Thank you，Happy. "
I wonder what he meant.

One pleasant New﹣year morning，Edward's father gave him two bright，new silver dollars．He had wishes for a long time to buy some new books．
As he ran down the street to the bookstore，he saw a poor German family，the father，mother and three children walking in the cold wind．
"I wish you a happy New Year．"said Edward，as he was happily passing on．The man shook his head，for he could not understand or speak English．But he pointed to his mouth，and to the children，as if to say，"These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time．"
Edward quickly understood that these people were poor and in trouble．He took out his dollars，and gave one to the man，and the other to his wife．
When Edward came home，his father asked what books he had bought．"I have bought no books，"said he，"I gave my money to some poor people，who seemed to be very hungry and tired．I think I can wait for my books till next New Year．""My dear boy，"said his father，"here are some books．I give them to you，more as a reward for your goodness of heart than as a New﹣year gift．"
"Always be ready to help people around you every year of your life will be a HAPPY NEW YEAR!"
