Later, he helped make candy in a factory. After a few years, Milton knew that he was a good candy maker and he wanted to start his own candy business. In 1886, he started a caramel (焦糖) business, and four years later his business was very successful. After seeing how chocolate was made. Milton loved it right away. He got married and sold the caramel company for one million dollars and opened up a chocolate factory.

    Milton built a town with houses, schools, and stores so the workers in his factory could live nearby. As Milton made more money, he built a school for orphans (孤儿). When his wife died, Milton took all of his money and gave it to the school to help those children. He also set up the M. S. Hershey Foundation to help people get an education.

    Milton Hershey died in 1945, but the world remembers him for not only making chocolate, but for his work to help people. He is someone who built a town and helped people get jobs. He is someone who built a school for children who did not have families. He is someone who helped those who were sick and someone who made that chocolate, that delicious chocolate which most of us throughout me world enjoy.

    It was about 1：00 in the morning. It was bright light in my neighbor's kitchen. I thought he might be having midnight food so I went back to my bed. Soon, there was a burning smell and I realized there must be something wrong. I jumped out of bed at once and went to have a look. I saw fire coming out of his kitchen. I shouted, "Fire！Fire！"But nobody heard me. I ran quickly to my house and called the Fire Department(消防队) and went back to my neighbor's house.

    I knocked at the door and called my neighbor's name, but there was no answer. I tried to break into the house and saved a cat and a chicken. Then I poured water through the kitchen window but it was no use, because the fire was too big. Luckily, the firemen arrived and put out the fire in time.

    When my neighbor came back, he was sad because his kitchen was burnt down, but he thanked me for calling the Fire Department and saving his pets.

    A week later, my neighbor invited me to his home for dinner. In his new kitchen, he took a photo of me. Later on, he gave me the photo as a gift. It made me happy.

    Police aren't sure how else to explain it. But when a policeman walked into an apartment on Thursday night to answer a 911 call, a cat was lying by a telephone on the floor. The cat's owner, Gary, was on the ground near his bed having fallen out of his wheelchair.

    Gary said his cat, Tommy, must have hit the right buttons(按钮)to call 911. He said he couldn't get up because of great pain from his chest(胸口). He also couldn't reach the medicine on the table.

    The policeman, Patrick, said police got a 911 call from Gray's apartment, but there was no one on the phone. Police called back to make sure everything was OK, and when no one answered, they decided to check things out. That's why Patrick found Tommy next to the phone.

    Gary got the cat three years ago to help lower his blood pressure (压力). He trained him to call 911, but unsure if the training would work. The phone in the living room is always on the floor, and there are 12 small buttons including a speed dial (快捷键) for 911 right above the button for the speaker phone.

    "He's my hero(英雄)." Gray said.
