I first met an 8-year-old Katy on a rainy afternoon. I was a 1at a hospital. The clerk at he desk told me about Katy. She was there because she felt a lot of 2. The doctors found a problem at the base of her brain(大脑). I knew she was 3, even before she got better.

    When I entered Katy's room, she was not in her bed. 4 Katy did not feel well, she was playing with Tommy, a little boy. She had much 5sitting in the chair. But she played with Tommy because it made him 6.

    Katy was always smiling and never appeared to be in pain. She 7to just lie in bed. One day I found her painting a picture. Later, she gave it to one of the older patients. Another day she went outside to 8flowers for another sick little girl. Katy made 9smile.

    The doctors 10to solve the problem in Katy's brain. The operation was successfully! Katy was fine. She soon felt 11. Then she was able to 12the hospital a month later.

    I have worked as a nurse for a long time. I have met many patients. 13, I have never met another girl like Katy. Even after she got well, she still came to the hospital. She played different games with the young patients. She read many books the 14patients. Katy's kind heart helped her get better so 15. She is a hero to me and everyone else at the hospital.

It was Friday afternoon. The students were having the last1 of this week. At the end of the class, the teacher2 the students to bring some tomatoes in a bag to school the next Monday. "And you should give each tomato a3 of the person you don't like. If you don't like five persons, you should bring five tomatoes. "the teacher said. 

The students didn't know why, but they felt glad4 they didn't need to do homework at the weekend. On Monday, all the students brought tomatoes. Some had two, some had six, and some5 had twenty in their bags. 

The teacher said, "This week, all of you have to6 these bags with you, anywhere you go for the whole week. "The students7 happily. Then it was Friday again. The tomatoes smelt8 as they already lost their freshness. "How did you9 this week?" the teacher asked. All the students complained about (抱怨) the smell. Some also talked about the heavy weight (重量) of their bags because they carried10 tomatoes. 

The teacher smiled and said, "These tomatoes are similar (相似的) to what you carry in your 11 . When you don't like someone, you carry that hatred (厌恶) everywhere and it makes your heart12 . You can't stand the13 and weight of these tomatoes for a week. Then how can your heart stand14 feelings when you carry them every day?"

The students looked at their tomatoes and15 the teacher's words. They decided to forgive (原谅) those who had hurt them and only keep good things in mind.

A British woman used an ancient Chinese invention to help her son deal with a modern problem. 

Dr. Rashmi Mantri grew up in India. She was taught how to use an abacus to solve math problems when she was a little girl. After noticing her son Dhruv had great difficulty with math，she started emploving the same ancient Chinese tool to help him after school. 

In just six days，Dhruv started to show rapid progress with the abacus. He enjoyed learning on it because it was like a game. He started to learn fast and would go on to become an excellent student in math. Surprised by the progress，teachers asked Dhruv to perform with the abacus at a school meeting，where some parents even came to ask for advice on using it to help their kids. 

Known as the Fifth Invention of Ancient China，the Chinese abacus helped people so lve all kinds of math problems in ancient China and is still used today. People find that using an abacus can also improve thinking and practical abilities. In 2013, the Chinese abacus was officially listed as an intangible cultural heritage of human beings(人类非物质文化遗产). "The abacus becomes a playing tool for younger children. It feels like a game. I think the success comes because children can touch and feel an abacus and picture it in their mind. "said Dr. Mantri.
