2、ed across the street. I am not sure when she first appeared, maybe a month ago. Each morning I watch as she gets out from the narrow space between the two large buildings across from mine. She wears the same dirty, badly torn dress every day. I can see she fights to pull herself up into a standing p
3、osition. She fails in the first two or three tries, but determination always wins out. She remains leaning against the wall for several long minutes, appearing to gather the necessary strength needed to pick up her possession-all packed into five plastic bags. With tears in my eyes, I watch as she p
4、laces her feet pointing outward to avoid falling. Her steps are measured and cautious as she slowly makes her way to the corner and disappears. When I first noticed this woman, I went across the street and offered her 20 dollars, but she turned her back to me and pretended not to see me. The express
5、ion on her face was one of shame, causing me to feel guilt for invading her privacy. The next night I bought a hotdog and a Coke, and left them in the spot when she was not there. Feeling like a spy, I watched as she ate the hotdog like a starving cat that had not eaten for days. I too often find my
6、self complaining about life, but when I look out my window and see the old woman, I feel the need to apologize for my foolish pride in not realizing how fortunate I really am.

10、 an e-reader, a kettle, two bags, a pair of jeans, a remote-control helicopter, a spoon, and a dining-room chair. All broken. It sounds like a pile of things that yous stuck in boxes and take to the dustbin. In fact, its a list of things mended in a single afternoon by British volunteers determined
11、to get people to stop throwing things away. This is the Reading Repair Cafe, part of an international network aimed at dealing with a world of rubbish. The helicopter belongs to William, who cheerfully describes himself as “ mechanically imcompetent”. He has owned it for 8 years, but 3 years ago it
12、stopped working and it has been sitting unused in his cupboard ever since.

18、 millions of people around the world. It is 100 years later. Scientists are thinking about how to keep us safe from another super-flu. Dr. Anthony Fauci says we need one vaccine (疫苗)that can protect against most or all types of the flu. Scientists want a shot that people could get every 5 or 10 year
