Ronny looked like every other kid in the first-grade classroom where I volunteered as the Reading Mum. However, Ronny stood apart from his classmates in other ways. He had a speech problem so he couldn't 75 like other kids in his grade. I worked with all the students in Ronny's class one by one to improve their reading skills
On the days when it was Ronny’s turn, I gave him a silent smile, and he flew out of his chair. He sat very close to me and opened the book as if he was opening a treasure that nobody had ever seen. I watched his fingers move slowly under each letter as he tried his best to read out. Every time he 76 to read a word with a strange pronunciation, the biggest smile would spread across his face and his eyes would shine with 77 .

The pages were already dog-eared, like the book had been read thousands of times already. When he finished reading, Ronny closed his book and said with great satisfaction, "Good book!" What a powerful contribution (贡献) the writer of that Little Golden Book had made in the life of a disadvantaged child. At that moment, I knew I would get 80 about my own writing and do what that writer had done, and probably still dose --- care enough to write a story that changes a child’s life, care enough to make a difference.

After his Master Chef Junior run, 12-year-old Evan Robinson is using his kitchen skills to raise money for Puerto Rico(波多黎各).The TV show winner wanted to offer help after hurricanes(飓风)hit the country last September.
“I’ve been seeing,all over the news ,people lived too hard,”Evan said. “They can’t get fresh water,electricity.They can’t get really anything.I know I’m just a kid,but I
15
think if a lot of people do something,a lot of things will get better.”
He raises money by baking and taking online orders for homemade pies.H e started cooking on a recent Friday night.By the next Sunday evening,he had filled orders for 420 pies--roasted chicken ,cheeseburger and vegetarian--getting $18 for six pies and $30 for a dozen.
For Evan’s out-of-town friends and supporters,he has also set up a crowdfunding(众筹)page.Through it, he’s already raised $1,500 in “virtual(虚拟)pies”.He said fruit pies are up next.
His mom,Veronica Robinson, is in charge of delivering the pies around the city. “We’ve never done anything like this before,”she said. “But it’s a great idea,so I want to help him.”
His baking will continue as well.This is because he heard on the news that it would take Puerto Rico years,maybe even 10 years, to recover(恢复)from the hurricanes.
It’s not an easy job,especially for a kid with homework and Boy Scouts and friendships to tend to.But he doesn’t seem worried. “It’s what we’re supposed to do,”he said. “I’m a human.They’re humans.Why shouldn’t help them?”

C. Writing:
The new skill I have learned recently is skating,which is the most popular activity during winter.And I am always having a great affection for ice and snow.When I was little,my cousins liked to hang out and they loved to chase each other on ice,which seemed a great fun.Sadly, they didn’t allow me to join them because they thought I was too young.After I have been a middle school student, I got the chance to skate.However,it was not as easy as I assumed it would be.When I put on the ice skates,I could barely stand on the ice.But I really wanted to learn this skill. Later on, I would start practising early in the morning.I know that practice makes perfect.And I am capable of gliding on the ice after practicing.The learning process tells me that we will confront various difficulties in our life.What we can do is never give up and we will succeed someday in
15
the future.
