Come to Austria!
Soll is a village in the mountains in western Austria, and the Hotel Post, run by a local family, is clean and not expensive. From the hotel you can see the whole village, the forest and the mountains. Temperature in summer is usually from 20℃ to 25℃ in the daytime, but much cooler by evening.
Enjoy Thailand!
When you visit Bangkok in Thailand, don't miss the early morning river boat trip to the Floating Market just outside the city. There you will find many kinds of fruits and vegetables. There you can buy and pay for them when you sit in your boat. Don't forget your hat: the sun can be strong and it may be as hot as 40℃ at midday!
Visit Hawaii!
Maybe the most beautiful place in Hawaii is Kauai. You can visit its long, sandy beaches in the south and the west of the island, and mountains and forests in the north, but be careful: there are many mosquitoes（蚊子）, and don't be surprised if it rains in the center of the island. Daytime temperatures there are usually from 24℃ to 26℃ by the sea, and only a little cooler by late evening.
NIGHT after night, she came to help me sleep, even long after my childhood years. I don't remember when it first started annoying me—my mom's hands pushing my hair that way. But it did annoy me, for they felt rough against my young skin. Finally, one night, I shouted at her: "Don't do that anymore—your hands are too rough!" She didn't say anything, but she never did it again.
Years later, I missed my mother's hands and her goodnight kiss on my face. I'm not a little girl anymore. My mom is in her mid-70s, and her rough hands are still doing things for my family and me.
Now my own children have grown up. It was late on Thanksgiving Eve. As I slept in my bedroom, a familiar hand ran across my face to push the hair from my head. Then a kiss, ever so gently, touched my brow.
Taking my mom's hand, I told her how sorry I was for that night I shouted at her. But my mom didn't know what I was talking about. She had forgotten it long ago. That night, I fell asleep with a new appreciation for my gentle mother and her caring hands. And the guilt that I had carried around for so long was nowhere to be found.
Jenny was a nurse in a children's hospital. One evening there was a big dance at the hospital. Most of the doctors and nurses would be there, but some of them had to be let to look after the children. Jenny was not among the1ones who were free to go to the dance. She enjoyed dancing very much, so when she had to start2that evening while her friends were getting ready to go to the dance, she felt very sorry for herself. She went to each sick child one after another and said good night. Finally, she came to a little boy called Tommy. Tommy was only 11 years old, but he already talked like an adult. Poor Tommy had a very serious illness, and now he was hardly able to3any part of his body except his hands. But he was always happy and always thinking about others instead of himself. When Jenny came up to his bed, he said: "I'm very sorry that you have to4the dance because of us. But we're going to have a party for you. If you look in my drawer(抽屉), you'll find a piece of cake. I saved it from my supper today, so it's quite5. And I'd get up and dance with you myself if I was able to. "Suddenly the hospital dance seemed very far away and not at all important to Jenny.
In Amsterdam, the capital of Holland, there is an unusual Children Restaurant, it is run by children. From the manager to the c, waiters and other members are all children from 6 to 12 years old. They do all the necessary work such as cooking and cleaning t. These children are selected in Amsterdam. After training they may serve in the restaurant for four weeks.
This restaurant was founded in 1983 by a woman worker who wanted to give children chances to learn to be useful to the public. And now she is the only adult there, but her jis just to take care of the children.
The restaurant is welcomed almost by e. Since there are only 20 seats in it, it is always full of people. If you want to have a meal in it, you must tell them ahead of time. The cost of a meal is different to different people, usually 4 dollars for each adult but much cheaper for children. And its bhours are only Saturday evenings and Sunday afternoons.
Hi! My name is Rachel. I'm 14 years old, in the eighth grade, and I live on a dairy farm(牛奶场)in Michigan with my dad, mom, grandma and my 12-year-old brother, Andy. I want to tell you what life is like on a dairy farm!
On our dairy farm, we milk about 55 cows twice a day at five o'clock in the morning and five o'clock in the afternoon. We also have quite a few calves, some bulls and dry cows. Calves are babies, bulls are fathers of the calves, and dry cows are the adult cows who are pregnant(怀孕) and close to having their calves. So we don't milk the dry cow.
My brother and I help my dad with evening housework on school days. My mom works for the Michigan Department of Agriculture(密歇根农业部), so she helps out on the weekend. As we are at school or work on weekdays, my grandma helps my dad milk and feed the animals on weekday mornings. All of us are busy, but we all enjoy our farm life!
My favorite part of living on the farm is talking care of the baby animals. What I hate to do is have to get up so early, especially on the weekend!
When it's time to milk the cows, one person has to push the cows into the milk house, and another gets the cows ready for milking. If you look here, you can see milk flowing from the cow into a milk line and to the big milk tank(贮乳槽)in the milk house. It makes you thirsty, doesn't it?
