It was coming up on Marty's birthday. His mom had asked him what he wanted as a gift this year. He thought maybe a new bicycle, or maybe a new camera, a new basketball, or a telescope (望远镜)."Any of those gifts would be great," he said. Secretly, he hoped for the telescope.

Marty's mom and dad talked about the gifts one night after Marty went to sleep." I think we should get Marty the telescope," said dad." He's so interested in space and the planets, he would like that the best." "Sounds good," said mom. Dad told her he would pick out a telescope for Marty the next day after work.

Marty's dad had the telescope in his car. He waited until Marty was asleep and brought it into the house. "Wow!" said Marty's mom after dad put it together. "This is wonderful." " Now where are we going to hide it until Sunday？" "How about in the attic(阁楼)?" "Marty won't find it there."

    Tammy was in her room, getting ready to do her homework. "Yes, Daddy!" she replied. "I'll be right there."
    She hurried out of her bedroom and down the hallway. She was only nine years old. Her elder sister, Ella, had just moved away to go to a performing arts high school in another city. Her brother, Harry, was in middle school and always got home late. With Ella leaving home, Tammy was expected to do a lot more than she had ever done before, especially now, because her mother was ill.
    Her father was in the kitchen. "Tammy, I know you usually do your homework right now, but with things being different, we all have to change a little bit. I'll help you and Harry with your homework later on, OK?"
    Her father had an apron（围裙） on over his clothes, and he looked kind of funny. He was doing the dishes and he always splashed（溅出） water all over when he did that. After helping her father with the dishes, Tammy helped set the table.
    After supper, her father helped her and Harry with their homework, and then they played a board game so that their mother could lie down for a while.

    "Thank you, Tammy. You really are mother's little helper now, aren't you?"

Two years ago, a 9-year-old girl from Massachusetts, US, wrote a letter to American President Barack Obama. "Why aren't there any women on the dollars or coins of the United States?" Sofia asked. "There are many women that could be on the dollars or coins because of the important things they've done." To her surprise on April 20, also her 11th birthday, Sofia got a call from the White House telling her that her wish will come true.

Harriet Tubman, an African-American woman, will be on the face of the $20 bill, and the final design will be released(发布) by 2020, said US Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew. This means that Tubman will become the first woman in more than a century and the first black person to appear on the country's currency (货币).

Tubman was born a slave (奴隶) in 1822. When she was 27, she made her escape. But Tubman wanted to help other slaves become free, so she later returned to the South 19 times and saved more than 300 people. She fought against slavery all her life.

However, while Tubman is going on the new currency, women still bring home far fewer $20 bills than their men colleagues (同事). According to the Institute for Women's Policy Research, women are paid only 79 percent of what men are paid in the US.

"Women have long been undervalued (低估)," said Susan Ades Stone from the US. "To put a great woman on the currency can remind us every day of women's value, abilities and contributions. At least it's a step in the right direction.

"Excuse me, can you tell me where the Peterson Building on 34th Street is?"

But the other man says, "There is a better way; take a No. 3 bus. It can take you to the Peters Building." "Not Peters, but Peterson." says Bill.

Then the two men say, "Oh, we're sorry we don't know."

"Thank you all the same. I think I'll take a taxi," Bill says. He knows that if he wants to know how to get to a place next time, he'd better ask a policeman.
