Helpers. Im sure you know that this group was set up to help disabled
people
like me. You helped to make it possible for me to have Lucky. Lucky makes a
big difference to my life. Let me tell you my story.
What would it be like to be blind or deaf? Or imagine you cant walk or
use your
hands easily. Most people would never think about this, but many
people have
these difficulties. I cant use my arms or legs well, so normal things
like answering
the telephone, opening and closing doors, or carrying things are
difficult for me.
Then one day last year, a friend of mine helped me out. She talked to
Animal
Helpers about getting me a special trained dog. She also thought a
dog might
cheer me up. I love animals and I was excited about the idea of having
a dog.
After six months of training with a dog at Animal Helpers, I was able to
bring him
home. My dogs name is Lucky a good name for him because I feel
very lucky to
have him. You see, Im only able to have a dog helper because of your
kindness!

about words you

and later a good university. Others are practicing sports
so that they can compete and win. However, this doesnt only happen in
China.
The Taylors are a typical American family. Life for Cathy Taylors three
children is
very busy. On most days after school, Cathy says, I take one of my two
boys to
basketball practice and my daughter to football training. Then I have to
take my
other son to piano lessons. Maybe I could cut out a few of their activities,
but I
believe these activities are important for my childrens future. I really want
them to
be successful. However, the tired children dont get home until after 7:00
p.m. They
have a quick dinner, and then its time for homework.
Linda Miller, a mother of three, knows all about such
stress. In some families, competition starts very young
and continues until the kids get older, she says. Mothers
send their small kids to all kinds of classes. And they are
always comparing them with other children. Its crazy. I
don t think thats fair. Why dont they just let their kids be
kids? People shouldnt push their kids so hard.

Answering
Hometown Feelings
Some people still live in their hometown.
However,
others may only see it once or twice a year.
Nowadays,
millions of Chinese leave the countryside to
search for
work in the cities. Among these is Zhong Wei, a
46-year-
old husband and father. He has lived in Wenzhou for the last 13
years. With a hard
job in a crayon factory, he doesnt find much time to visit his
hometown. I used
to return home at least once a year, but I havent been back for
almost three years
now. Its a shame, but I just dont have the time, he says.
Many people like Zhong Wei regard with great interest how their
hometowns
have
places,
the
government has also built new schools and sent teachers from the
cities to help.
I noticed thats true of my hometown, adds
Zhong Wei. Children have learn ed to read and
count at my old primary school since the mid-20th
century. But now the buildings are really old. I hear
theyre going to build a new school there. Zhong
