Martin is my youngest son. He likes staying alone and he seldom laughs. As the boy's mother, I was1 about him. I took him to see the2 in many hospitals, but it didn't work well.
Nothing could make him happy except the recycling truck（垃圾回收车）passing by my house. Every afternoon, he raced to the front of the house, waiting3 the truck.

A photo of a boy carrying his tennis rackets in a bamboo basket becomes popular online.
The boy, Wang Fa, 14, is a member of the Va (佤族) from Yunnan. After he won the under-14-title(十四岁以下男单冠军）at the ASICS Tennis Junior Tour in Guangzhou, an audience (观众) from Yunnan gave him the bamboo basket as a gift and the photo was taken.
"We always carry bamboo baskets when we work in the field. This is a typical(有代表性的）farming tool of the Va. I carried my rackets in this basket to honor my hometown. " Wang said.
Before playing tennis, Wang was just a village boy. But in 2016, he was chosen by a local club as a professional tennis player. "I was nervous at the beginning because the outside world was so different from my home. Tennis has helped me make more friends and get a better education. " he said.
Over the past six years, Wang has trained hard to improve his skills at the Yunnan Wild Elephants Tennis Club. He would get up at 6:30 a. m. and practice for more than six hours a day. He needed to swing a racket (挥拍) more than 7,000 times and run 9 kilometers every day.
"If it were not for tennis, I would still be helping my family with farm work at home. " Wang said.
Wang's parents didn't want him to learn tennis at first because they couldn't afford it. Luckily, the tennis club offered to teach him for free.
For Wang, winning the ASICS Tennis Junior Tour title was the beginning of the future with hope, "I will try my best to get to the top on the professional stage. " he said.
When was it that something made you stop, take a good look and get lost in thought? For me, it was last Sunday. My friend invited me to a European art exhibition in Shanghai.
To be honest, I'm not interested in art paintings at all. I know very little about European art. So, at first, I refused to go to the exhibition. But finally I became excited to see the artworks of the famous artists like Monet(莫奈) and Van Gogh(梵高). The exhibition included 52 artworks. It was really a different experience to see them face to face.
My friend was happy to see so many different painting styles in one place. The visit made her remember the trip to Paris several years ago. She told me that art could be found in every corner of the city.
Most of the visitors, I thought, had limited(有限的) knowledge about art, too. They were just busy taking pictures, and then showed everyone on WeChat that they had been there. Under the influence of my friend, who is an art lover, I began to look at the paintings carefully. One painting that moved me most was Van Gogh's Long Grass With Butterflies. Those things such as grass, butterflies were quite common in my life. However, I had never thought they were worth attention. I had usually followed the crowd to see what was "special ". Actually, we should pay more attention to the "common " things around us.
Sometimes we are supposed to have a careful look, think for a while, then we will find the beauty in our life.
①I refused to go to the art exhibition.
② I went to see the exhibition with my friend.
③ I was invited to the exhibition.
④ I was moved by Long Grass With Butterfly.
