Jeremy Locke, who owns a roofing and construction company in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia, had always been wanting to repair the roof of Jeanette MacDonald's home. Whenever he drove past the woman's home, he assumed that the roof was under repair because the job had already been taken on by another group of repairmen—but as the weeks wore on, the roof continued to worsen without any signs of repair.
" I had it in my mind that if no one steps up to help this lady in our community, I'd be more than happy to," Locke told CBC．
When Locke finally reached out to MacDonald about fixing her roof for free, however, she politely declined his offer because she did not like to accept charity. That being said, she had already applied for a government grant （补助金） to fix the roof and she said she was more than happy to hire Locke once her grant application was approved.
Unfortunately, MacDonald never received the approval.
As the stubborn （固执的） Canadian senior refused to accept any assistance from Locke, the sympathetic construction worker played an innocent trick in order to get her to accept his help. He invited MacDonald to enter a raffle （抽奖活动）that his business was holding for a free roof. After the grandmother — of — four accepted one of the raffle tickets, Locke told her that she was the winner—because she was the only one who had entered the raffle.
Thanks to his sweet little plan, Locke and his crew are starting work on the roof this week, which is expected to cost his company about $9, 000.
MacDonald, meanwhile, told CBC that she doesn't know how to express her gratitude to Locke, saying that he is her "guardian angel".
"There's nobody out there like him," she added.
People made wings and strapped them to their arms. They flapped their arms but couldn't fly. They built gliders(滑翔机), light aircraft with wings. Some didn't work, but some did.
The gliders that worked had special wings. These wings were arched on both the top and the bottom. The air pulled the wings from above and pushed the wings from below. When the wings went up, so did the glider! Arched wings help create a force called lift. Lift is the force that keeps the gliders in the air.
Most gliders have long, thin wings. The wings create enough lift to carry the aircraft and its passengers. Gliders usually ride currents of air the same way a hawk soars(飞翔).
Gliders are very light, and long wings and air currents can give them enough lift to fly. But to carry more than just a passenger or two, an aircraft needs a lot more lift. The question is: How do you create more lift?
The engine is the answer!
The engine is a machine that changes energy into movement. The forward movement that an airplane needs to fly is called thrust. More thrust makes an airplane move forward faster. Moving faster creates more lift. And with more lift, an airplane can carry more weight so an aircraft with an engine can carry passengers or cargo.
In 1903 the Wright brothers figured out how to get wings and an engine to work together in order to give an airplane enough thrust to fly. They made the first powered flight at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.
Since then people have made airplanes that can fly faster than sound can travel. They have made airplanes that can fly all the way around the world without stopping.
Today, thousands of people travel in airplanes every day. People really have learned how to fly!
When people pause before replying to a question, even for just a few seconds, their an-swers are supposed to be less sincere and believable than if they had replied immediately. And the longer the hesitation lasts, the less sincere the response appears.
Researchers conducted a series of experiments involving more than 7, 500 individuals. Participants either listened to an audio record, viewed a video or read an account of a person responding to a simple question. In each case, the response time varied from immediate to a 10-second delay. Participants then rated the sincerity of the response on a sliding scale. Across all 14 experiments, participants consistently rated delayed responses as less sincere re-gardless of the question.
The findings have wide connotations. Whenever people are interacting, they are judging each other's sincerity. These results can be applied to a wide range of interactions, going from workplace chats to couples and friends arguing. Further, in job interviews and in court hear-ings and trials, people are often tasked with judgments of sincerity. Here, too, response speed could play a part. In general, whenever there is a response that requires an answer, such as in a job interview, delayed responses can be thought as less sincere.
It would be unfair for the responder, such as a crime suspect, if the response delay was sorted by mistake into thought control or answer making up when it was in fact caused by a different factor, such as simply being distracted or thoughtful. The experiment also found that definitely instructing participants to ignore delayed response reduced, but did not com-pletely remove, the effect of delayed response on judgment of sincerity or guilt. Nevertheless, on the whole, a fast response seems to be regarded as more sincere, while a response that is delayed for even a couple of seconds may be considered a slow lie.
Useful Memory Strategies
Form associations between new and remembered information. If you can link new ideas with previously established ones, then, you can increase the chance that new memories will be formed. Try coming up with a familiar picture, song, joke, or rhyme. ． Form a picture in your mind that includes the new fact.
It may be boring, but simply repeating new information over and over in different ways will help it stick in your brain better, especially if you space out the repetition over time. For example, if you're trying to remember the definition of a new word, read it several times to yourself. Then speak the definition out loud a couple times, and try writing it down once or twice.
Teach someone else the information you're trying to learn. Teaching others can help you remember and understand things better. Find a classmate or co-worker who needs to learn the same information, form a study group, and take turns teaching each other different concepts. !
Test yourself after learning something new. You have to actually practice finding the information from your memory in order to strengthen the connections within your brain. In this way, you can make sure you've got them right. If you answer something wrong, you will be more likely to remember it incorrectly in the future as well, so instantly correct yourself and repeat the right answer a few more times.
A. Be sure to immediately check your answers.
B. Make sure that the basic information is right.
C. And you can associate them with the new material.
D. Repeat new facts as soon as you come across them.
E. Simply re-reading the same information isn't good enough.
F. Then keep trying effective methods and cooperation with others.
G. Alternately, ask your friends if they're willing to learn something new from you.
I can still remember the afternoon when we climbed the mountain as if it were yesterday. It was a sunny day. 1to spend some time outdoors, I went up the mountain with Uncle Jimmy. The mountain was not easy to climb and had tough rocks and streams on it. In the end,2 and hot, I couldn't go any further.3, we went back down the mountain in the end. On the way back down, Uncle Jimmy asked me a question, which 4me speechless for a second: "What's your dream, young lady?" "I have no idea," I answered after thinking for a while. Then he smiled and told me about his 5. He didn't 6 well at school when he was a student. Although7 thought he could succeed, he knew 8 what his dream was — to be a9. "I knew I wasn't 10 when it came to studying, so I tried to buy snacks from a nearby market and sell them after class," he told me. After he left school, he started selling different items to 11which one was most attractive to customers. Of course, he often had no money in his pocket, but 12difficult life was, he never gave up.
"There is no 13 that a person who puts in a great deal of 14 to reach his or her goal will have good luck at some point. The meaning of life is to chase your dream," he said gently.
That night I could not fall asleep. With my eyes wide open, I lay in bed tossing and turning, asking myself, "What's my motivation?" I wanted to be a top student, but the hard work15meant putting everything into following my 16. If I find myself 17willpower, what should I do? Leaving home early the next morning, I climbed the mountain again all by myself. It made me think: If we don't 18the climb, how can we get to enjoy the scenery on the top of the mountain? At last, I reached the top and was19 by the warm breeze and sunshine. Nothing could be more 20 than that.
Moving around Bogota can be a bit of an extreme experience. On the one hand, this city has a bad reputation for having the world's (bad) traffic. Yet, on the other, its cycling infrastructure- (onsider) a model of sustainable urban traffic. This city even has a special movement called Ciclovia, (encourage) l.5 million people to bike for 128 km on car-free streets each Sunday morning. Carlos Pardo, local cycling supporter at the New Urban
Traffic Union says: "Everyone starts using a bicycle because we have this bike culture thanks to the Ciclovia. " Biking has regained (popular) around the world as urban residents avoid using public transport ever since the outbreak of coronavirus. Now, many supporters are working with the local government the hope of turning these pandemic response measures into lasting changes, which will (dramatical) change the way people travel across cities.
Next (come) the question of how government can keep citizens cycling to work once the coronavirus passes. Local authorities need (improve) the bike networks, ensuring that they are well maintained even in poor weather. Plus, they can carry out simple policies can encourage cycling, including cutting down tax, reducing healthcare costs or offering workers compensation packages that include benefits for bike riders.

In my childhood, my parents sent me to learn Chinese calligraphy. However, things are quite opposite to their expectations. Not only I get bored with hours of practice but also I doubted about the valuable of it. Nevertheless, when I entered high school, write calligraphy proved both essential or beneficial. It was at that time when I realized how important it is to master a certain skill.
Judging from my own experience, I want to say a few word to those children who have a same trouble as I did. Do not refuse to learn a skill when young, as at the long run you will find them helpful.
