If there is one person who has left a deep impression on me, it's my my teacher, Mrs. Pathak, who was my class teacher for three years. In my childhood, how I wished I had a mother or a sister like her. One moment she could be hard-working and strict, another moment kind and patient.

She always encouraged us to tell the truth. For example, if one had not done the homework, he need not lie. She allowed us to make mistakes, saying we couldn't be perfect all the time, but we should try.

Another thing she taught me was punctually. She set a good example with her own actions. She was always on time,he set a good example with her own actions. She was always on time,

She surprised us with her sense of humor. Her classroom teaching was always humorous. After class, she talked to us and told us jokes.

We really felt free to ask questions and Mrs Pathak would give the answers. If she did not know—there had some occasions—she would say so. We all then tried to find out the answers. Whoever came up with the answers was praised and given the prize. Now I sometimes wonder whether Mrs. Pathak just wanted to encourage us to explore and find answers by ourselves.

    It is Sunday today. Anna goes shopping with her mother. She wants her mother to buy a new coat for her. In Hongxing Shop, she finds a green coat. She tries it on. It's too small. She wants a big one, but the big one is not green. Anna doesn't like other colors.“Let's go to another(另外的)  shop to have a look.”her mother says. Then they go to Jiajiale Shop. The shop is big and they see many kinds of coats in different colors and sizes(尺码). Anna tries on a green one. It looks nice on her. So they take it for forty-five yuan.

Yesterday was Mary Alston's birthday. She is 109 years old, and she is one of the oldest people in the world. And she likes eating hamburgers.

Mrs. Alston had a party with her family. Her daughter, Jenny Morgan, who is 85, said,"My mother loves chocolate, and she eats popcorn(爆米花), pizza and hamburgers. She also likes to eat vegetables and fruit."

Mrs. Alston lives in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. She was born on a farm in Pennsylvania, and worked as a teacher. In 1935 she married(结婚) James Henry Alston. He died(去世) in 1983.

Her granddaughter, Annie, who is 65, said,"Grandma gets up every day at 6 o'clock, and goes to the cinema every Friday. She enjoys her life every day."

Annie asked her grandmother what she wanted to eat on her birthday. Mary smiled and said,"I'd like a hamburger and some fries. Of course, I also want to eat fruit and vegetables."

What can we learn from Mary's living habits?{#blank#}14{#/blank#}

One fine day, Zhao Tianci, 29, decided to give up his job. "My mother has had ALS (渐冻症) for eight years so far," said Zhao. "Because of great work pressure, there was very little time I could spend with her." He thought it was time to change it. He decided to take his mom on a trip to Xinjiang.

On June 11 Zhao and his mother set off from Shangqiu, Henan. During the journey, Zhao kept driving and sometimes pushed his mother's wheelchair through the attractions (景点) along the way. He also shared videos of their trip online.

Zhao invited a friend to go with them and also hired (雇佣) a nursing worker to help during the journey, because his mother had difficulty speaking, eating and using the restroom. Sometimes they had to drive for 10 hours a day and even have their meals in the car.

The 15, 000-kilometer journey ended on July 12. Zhao said new life had begun and that they would like to visit Xinjiang again in his last video. Zhao's mother liked his videos. "Most of the time she just wanted to make sure she looked pretty, " Zhao said and smiled. 

The videos caught the attention of many people. Some people who have ALS patients at home asked Zhao for advice on traveling in Xinjiang. Zhao said he wanted to tell ALS patients that there was no reason for them to just stay at home, and that they must make the most use of every day to enjoy life.
