I live in a city where jobs are difficult to get and finding well—paid jobs is even1 . Many people have to walk a long way to work 2 they can't even afford an old, used car.

    Yesterday I 3one of these people when I was driving home. A man was walking down the road and trying to ask for a 4 from the passing cars. Two cars in front of me passed him by. 5wanted to do the same but the sight of that poor man remained in my mind for quite a moment. 6 I drove back and gave him a ride.

    As I drove along, we had a conversation and I 7 that the man was trying all his best to support his 8 while working a temporary(临时的)job. Every coin he had was going to 9 the house and food.

    But as we came close to the house he was living in, I saw his tired eyes grow 10. His little girl was playing in the front yard and 11 into her daddy's arms as soon as he was out of the 12 . I was almost lost in that happy moment. I smiled, said 13 to them and wished them future happiness. Then I 14.

    That day, the journey home which used to seem so 15 became very short.

    My name is Jack. When my family moved to America in 2014 from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs as well as culture. One of the rules is that young people always respect elders. This rule, unfortunately, led to my very first embarrassment in America.

    I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive Americans are and how they dislike the description "old". I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry.

    In my village, however, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.

    However, in the United States, people think "growing old" is a problem since "old" shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn't want to hear.

    After that, I changed the way I had been with senior citizens. It is not that I don't respect them anymore; I still respect them, but now I don't show my feelings through words.

A simple honk（汽车喇叭声） from the bus is one part of a secret code（代码） between the driver and students living in a far—away village in Wanzhou district，Chongqing.

Seeing a schoolbag hanging from the doorknob of an old house along the road，the bus driver drives toward the roadside and makes a honk to answer the "code".Then a boy runs outside，takes the schoolbag，and gets on the bus.

The boy's parents work far from home，leaving him in the care of his grandmother.The boy is in the ninth grade this year.He comes home every Friday and goes back to school in the city every Sunday.To make the journey easier，he and the driver，Cheng Lin，have developed a special "code".When the boy's schoolbag is hanging outside the house，it"tells" Mr Cheng，"Today，it's time to go back to school.I need to catch the bus."

The parents of the boy are deeply touched when they know this.They show their heartfelt thanks to Mr Cheng and feel happy that there is someone taking care of their son while they are away.

Mr Cheng has been driving the Luotian to Wuqiao Nan Station bus for many years.There are many left—behind children on this bus line.Realizing the importance of his role in their lives，he has paid more attention on Fridays and Sundays.

The driver's kindness to the boy touches the hearts of many people.One wrote online，"He is a good driver.The schoolbag is their code，packed with love inside."

March 30th is the World Bipolar Day. Liu Tiebang, president of Shenzhen Kangning Hospital,introduced bipolar disorder (BD) to the public in an effort to raise awareness for the mental health illness.

Bipolar disorder, also called manic depression (躁郁), is a mood disorder which can cause a patient's mood to change from a very high to a very low. Manic symptoms (症状) can include increased energy, quick response, unusual talkativeness, a lack of need for sleep, high self-esteem and so on. Depressive symptoms can include less energy, loss of interest or pleasure, feeling worthless, low self-esteem and suicidal(自杀性的) thoughts.

Patients with BD are often misdiagnosed (误诊） as depression. Liu said that while someone is experiencing a manic stage, he or she may be unusually talkative, sociable and outgoing. Patients having these kinds of problems may not realize that they are ill and often do not look for medical care. On the other hand, patients experiencing depressive periods are more likely to be noticed.

"With the development of treatments and medications, the treatments for BD have become better at present," said Liu. "The medications are safer. Patients getting the right treatments at the earlier stage of BD have a higher possibility of recovery (恢复); or the mania and depression may happen again."

For patients with BD, in addition to medication, other methods such as physical treatments, psychological treatments, social support groups and crisis intervention may be useful for managing their symptoms and controlling mood changes.

One of the world's most dangerous sports is mountain climbing, and one of the most popular places for this is the Himalayas. The Himalayas are in the southwestern part of China. Of all the mountains. Qomolangma rises the highest and it's the most famous. It is 8,848.86 meters high. and so is very dangerous to climb. Thick clouds cover the top and snow can fall very hard. Even more serious difficulties include freezing weather conditions and heavy storms. It is also very hard to take in air as you get near the top. 

The first people to reach the top were Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary on May 29.1953. The first Chinese team did so in 1960, while the first woman to succeed was Junko Tabei from Japan in 1975. 

Why do so many climbers risk their lives? One of the main reasons is that people want to challenge themselves in the face of difficulties. The spirit of these climbers shows us that we should never give up trying to achieve our dreams. It also shows that humans can sometimes be stronger than the forces of nature.
