In 1961 Obama was born in Hawaii, US. His father is an African and his mother is a white American. He grew up in Indonesia and Hawaii.
When Obama was 10 years old, he was one of only three black students at his school in Hawaii. He felt very different from most other students. White girls wanted to touch his hair. A white boy even asked him what his father was.
“I lied to them that my father was a Kenyan prince(王子). But I kept asking myself who I am,” said Obama.
However, 37 years later, the boy made history. Obama became the first black president(总统) in US history.
This unusual background(背景) made him wonder who he was. He once turned to alcohol (酒) to help forget this question.
With the help of his friends, Obama finally turned his life around at college. His hard work made him a star at Harvard. Later, he became only the third black senator (参议员) in US history.

People can always learn from small things. When I was in the {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(第五) grade, I was chosen to be the princess in the school play. For weeks my mother helped me practice my lines. But once on the stage, every word disappeared from my head. Then my teacher asked me to change my role to be a narrator(解说者) for the play. I didn't {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(告诉) my mother what had happened, but she {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(注意) it and asked if I wanted to take a walk in the garden.

It was a {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(温暖的) spring day. We could see dandelions(蒲公英) popping out through the {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(草) in bunches(束). I watched my mother bend down by one of the bunches, "I think I'll {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(挖) up all these weeds(野草)," she said. "From now on, we'll only have roses in this garden."

"But I like dandelions," I said. "All flowers are beautiful, even dandelions!"

My mother looked at me in a {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(严肃的) way. "Yes, every flower gives pleasure in its own way, doesn't it?" I nodded. "And that is true of people, too," she added.

When I realized that she had guessed my {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(痛苦), I started to cry and told her the truth. "But you will be an excellent narrator," she said.

Thanks to my mother's encouragement, I got to know everybody had his or her own {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(价值) in the world. I felt {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(骄傲的) of my role in the play. This was a very useful lesson for me.

Have you ever thought how lonely your pet dog will be when you leave home for school or work? Don't worry! A teenager has created a helpful robot for you. 

Cassidy Matwiyoff, a student in San Diego, California, created Bowwow. It is a robot and it helps to pet(抚摸) dogs when their owners are not at home. " The robot starts to work by dropping the food. The dog walks over to eat the food. During this process, Bowwow is petting the dog. " Natwiyoff says. 

The girl got the idea after watching ABC's Shark Tank. She spent four years creating a prototype (雏形) of Bowwow with the help of her mother. After that, she went to an Engineering and Computing Capstone Design program in Chico State. She was allowed to introduce her invention to a group of engineers and teachers in the hope of getting it produced. 

One of them disapproved of the idea. " My dog would rip() this to pieces, " he said. This lit(点燃) a fire within Matwiyoff. She spent the next four months doing research and testing Bowwow for dogs of different sizes and ages. 

Matwiyoff hopes to catch an investor's(投资者的) eye soon and bring her invention to the market. " One day, investors will be interested in my product and want to invest it. " she said.

Over the past 19 years. Gong Xiuze has used his skills to help others—providing free haircuts for nearly 10, 000 people. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} They are mainly the old the disabled and sanitation workers (环卫工人) . 

Gong, 82 years old, used to be a policeman in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} He began to provide free haircuts many years ago. From 1964 to 1968, he stayed in the army. There, he helped others cut their hair. After leaving the army, he became a policeman in Taiyuan and continued (继续) to cut hair for others. 

{#blank#}3{#/blank#} When he walked around in the parks in the city, he often found sanitation workers doing cleaning work in the early morning. He thought that they worked really hard, and he wanted to do something for them. 

{#blank#}4{#/blank#} With these cards, he told them about his free haircut service. He also gave cards to the disabled. They had difficulty moving, so Gong visited them and helped cut their hair at their homes. 

Now, many people look forward to meeting Gong every month. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} "I can feel my value (价值) of life at an old age while helping others, "he said. I will continue the service as long as I can. "

Max and Holly sat beside each other in a classroom. Their teacher Miss Carr stood at the front of the classroom and looked at them with a strange stare. "Silence!" Miss Carr shouted. "You're only allowed to speak if you want to say "I'd like to do extra hard MATH", understand? "

Then the bell rang for lunchtime and everyone jumped to their feet. "Sit down!" shouted Miss Carr. Everyone did as they were told. Miss Carr held up some sheets of paper. "These are new school rules, written by our wonderful new headteacher, Mr. Roberts, " she said. "You must do exactly as they say from this moment on. I want everyone to take a copy for your parents."

"Look at this!" Max said, reading the first line. "Rule one: No pupil will be allowed to go out at playtime unless they have passed a daily spelling test." Max and Holly then continued to look at the other new school rules. 

"Rule two: We're not supposed to be in here at lunchtime."

"Rule three: Pupils must eat cabbage stew or sprout surprise for lunch."

"Rule four: All P. E. will now take place outdoors—no matter what the weather is."

"Something's wrong." said Holly, "Things have been strange ever since Mr. Roberts took over as our head teacher last week. We need to find out what's going on."

Then Max and Holly walked to the teachers' office and stepped inside, surprised to find that many teachers have been tied up in the room! From their words, Max and Holly knew that the teacher in the classroom just now was just a robot clone (克隆) and she was not real Miss Carr, even the new headmaster! Max and Holly then succeeded in freeing all the teachers trapped. 

"We'll deal with those rotten robots!" said one of the teachers, as they ran out of the room. 

"How can I ever thank you, Max?" asked the real Miss Carr. 

"How about no homework for the rest of the school year."

Finally, Max and Holly realized that the school rules made by their real headmaster were so nice.
