Prana was a beautiful dog, whose name means “breath of life”. Although he died several years ago, I can still remember the days we spent together and what he has taught me about love.
I have two apple trees in the garden. Prana loved apples. When he went outside, he'd catch an apple and take it into the house to eat later. The apples had been on the ground and were often dirty so I wasn't always happy that Prana had brought them into the house.
It was an autumn day in America, but it was very cold. A big snow fell and we had not done anything for its coming. On that special day, Prana went outside and I watched him through the window. I noticed that he was madly digging(挖) holes and bringing the apples to the ground so they could be seen above the snow. I did not know why he was doing this. He seemed to want to do something special.
When I called him back, he had his usual one apple in his mouth. About five minutes later, I looked outside. The garden was completely covered with birds. Prana had dug up all those apples for his bird friends to eat. He knew that they wouldn't have stored enough food for the coming winter!

It is nice to hike with kids, but you must know something about hiking if you want to take a happy, relaxing trip.

Start early, know what to do in a heavy rain and carry sunglasses. Take snacks, toilet paper and a bag with you. Take a whistle(口哨) for kids. You may use it if children run away.

Find a partner. Kids are naturally competitive, and you can use this to your hike. They will try to do better than each other when they go hiking. They also will keep each other interested in something new.

Do something easy. It's good to play easy games. You can say "Does anybody see anything red that matches my shirt?" Kids will be easy and happy to answer this kind of questions.

If you aren't excited, they won't be either. When your kids find something they are interested in, you must show your interest in it, too.

Penny was a five-year-old girl. One day when she and her mother were at a store, Penny saw a plastic pearl necklace. What a lovely necklace! She wanted it very much, so she begged her mother to buy it for her. The mother said, “Well, I can buy you the necklace, but when we get home, we should discuss what you can do to pay for it. Can we do that?” Penny agreed with much happiness, and she got the plastic necklace she loved.

How much Penny loved the necklace! She wore it everywhere and every minute. Penny also helped with housework to get pocket money and she worked very hard. Soon she managed to pay off the price for the necklace.

Penny's daddy saw all her effort and knew how much Penny cared about the necklace. One night, he asked Penny, “Penny, do you love me?”

“Sure, Daddy,” the little girl said.

“Then how about giving me your necklace?”

“Come on, Daddy! Not my necklace!” Penny cried.

“Oh, darling, it's fine,” her father gave her a kiss.

A week later, her father asked Penny again for her plastic necklace.

“Oh! Daddy, please don't!” Penny cried even harder.

However, several days later, Penny went to her daddy with tears in her eyes. “Here, Daddy. I love you.” She held out her hand. Inside it was her plastic pearl necklace that she loved a lot.

Seeing this, Penny's father smiled with surprise. He then pulled a cute box out of his pocket. Inside of the box was a real and beautiful pearl necklace, which was waiting for Penny for so long.

    It was the day before Mother's Day this year. There was only me in the house and I was sitting in the chair thinking about my son Todd. I looked up and saw the little Mother's Day statue. Todd gave me that many years before. I put it on a shelf along with other memories（记忆）of passed days. It was hard to believe that Todd left me forever in a car accident in 2003.
  As I sat in my chair, lost in my memories, I thought, "It would sure be nice to get something again from Todd on Mother's Day, God." I knew it was almost impossible（不可能的）, but I wasn't going to tell anyone and I even thought, "This is between you and me, God." I still smiled and wondered if I might be surprised.
    Later that night Bill came back home from a few days' work. He walked in with a rose. He gave it to me and said it was from Todd!
I was really happy and moved! In the past 15 years, no one had given me anything and said it was from Todd. I knew God had heard and answered my petitions（祈求）. But I really know that love is everywhere. What important to us is to make our bad memories into good ones.

Qi Haoran, a Junior One student at High School Attached to Harbin Institute of Technology, was quite busy last winter vacation - and not just with his homework.Qi, together with 10 other classmates, made a volunteer group to call on people to join the Clear Your Plate Campaign.

The 11 students went to many restaurants and told people the importance of saving food. " Excuse me, do you know that 950 million people around the world still haven't got enough to cat? Please don't waste food." They would repeat such words hundreds of times every day.

China in recent years has experienced serious problems with wasting food.CCTV has reported that the food Chinese people waste every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year.Chinese people are well known for being hospitable (好客的) and generous.Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food, because it seems that they haven't prepared enough food for their guests.

Luckily, the campaign has got the support of many.In a restaurant in Xinjiang, the owner gives a sticker to the customers who have eaten all that they ordered.People can enjoy a free meal when they have 10 stickers. Besides, more than 750 restaurants in Beijing have begun to offer smaller dishes and encourage their customers to take leftovers home.

To reduce food waste is a big task, and it needs time.It's important that everyone should do their bit just like Qi. So did you finish your meals today?
