Jack is the most special friend to me.
Different from other7-year-old children, Jack began to go to school at the age of ten. But he got worried about his mother because she had disability. She couldn't do anything but worked in her small garden to get some money.
Jack's birthday came. He invited his classmates to his party. He was excited although there wasn't enough food in his home. He waited for so long but none of them came. Jack star-ted crying. "They must think we are poor. "Then his mother said, "No, it is because of me. My disability is the reason why they run away from you. ""They can't hate someone because of his disability, "Jack said.
The next day, one of Jack's classmates asked, "How was your party? Did anyone come?" And then others started laughing. Jack said angrily, "You didn't come, but it doesn't mean it was the worst day of my life. I have someone that is important to me and that person is my mother. You are laughing at me because of her. Although you don't like her, you won't stop me from loving her. You can't hate someone just because he is disabled. It is just the way that he was born with. "All his classmates were ashamed after hearing this.
From then on, all the students started to appreciate Jack because he spoke for the disabled people.

Haiyan is 7 years old. Her parents gave her an iPad as a gift for her birthday. A month later,her eyesight(视力)dropped to 300 degrees. This is serious for such a young child.
Many children in China are facing the same problem: iPad using is bringing problems to their eyesight. The problem is so common that newspapers even call the iPad the "No. 1 killer of children's eyesight!"
"There are about 30 shortsighted children coming every day, "said Hu Dali, an eye doctor at Guiyang Aier Eye Hospital. "Half of those children have poor eyesight because they have played with phones and iPads for too long. "
Doctors and scientists say children's vision(视觉)is not yet fully developed and their eyes get tired more easily. The screen of an iPad uses very bright(明亮的)LED backlight. If children look at an iPad screen for a long time, their eyes do not have time to rest. This will make their eyesight worse over time.
Doctors advise that users should hold their iPads between 40-60 centimeters(厘米)away from them. The brightness of the screen should be comfortable for children. Parents should also stop their children from using an iPad for more than one hour every day.

I have always had a love for traveling abroad. Last year, I took a trip to London alone. Those nights,I stayed in a youth hostel(青年旅社). For me,hostels are places where I can meet and talk to different people. It is great fun for me. During the stay in the hostel, I met two girls, one from Brazil and the other from Slovakia. We three had very happy talks together. We shared our personal travel stories and the interesting people we met with one another. The girl from Brazil was actually a lawyer(律师). 她帮助人们解决他们的家庭问题。 She was taking a trip to Europe all by herself. The girl from Slovakia had much interest in photography(摄影). Because I was also a photography fan, we ended up talking all night and sharing experience in using a camera.
The best part is that they both became close friends of mine. Even now, sometimes we still talk with each other online. Last month, I got some photos from the Brazilian girl. To my surprise, she had a baby daughter and they were laughing happily in the photos. I was so happy for her. And it's such a great thing to know that there are people remembering you from far away. Though you may just meet each other for a few hours, you have someone caring about you in the other side of the world. And I think that is the most amazing part of traveling. So if you have free time, maybe you can try to travel abroad to relax yourself as I do.
