The Day People Started Talking
My journey home from school is nothing special. I usually find a seat and start reading or texting my friends, making sure, like everyone else, not to look at other people. Then, twenty minutes later, I get off.
But last Tuesday was different. I was happily looking out of the window when the train suddenly stopped. This wasn’t usual. Then after about five minutes, I noticed people were starting to get a bit upset. Fifteen minutes later, people started getting more and more upset. Then the announcement (广播) came: “We are sorry to announce that this train is delayed. A train has broken down in front of us.”
There was a loud groan (叹息) throughout the carriage but soon something unexpected happened: all the complete strangers started talking to each other. At first, everyone just complained about the trains, but then people started talking about real things. I started chatting to a couple of young tourists sitting opposite me. Next, I really surprised myself by talking to a businesswoman. Business people are a lot cooler than I thought. Then I decided to get up and go for a walk down the train. I met a woman who had been a student at my school seven years before.
People offered each other food and drink. A young woman took her guitar and soon we were singing along. While we were singing, we heard there was a sick boy in another part of the train who needed help, and the woman from my school jumped into action. It turned out she was a nurse, and when she came back she was welcomed as a hero.
Then, after two and a half hours, we started moving again. Everyone cheered and some people, complete strangers three hours before, even hugged.
I took the train again on Wednesday but none of my new “friends” were there. Although people were polite, they weren’t nearly as friendly as the people the day before had been. I’ll never forget the day the train stopped and people started talking.

Building her own app
While other teenagers hang out with friends or play sports after school, Brooke Yoakam goes to business meetings.
Yoakam first began developing a mobile app called Gift Pocket at the age of 12. Now 17, this girl from Ohio, US has finally launched the app.
It allows users to upload gift cards from various businesses and store them all in one place. User can also exchange gift cards. The app is free to download and use.
Yoakam says about 1,000 users have downloaded the app, with 87 percent of them signing up(注册)and 45 percent adding at least one gift card to the service.
Yoakam came up with the idea for the app after attending a leadership academy(领导学院)in sixth grade. She was asked to solve a problem. She realized that she always forgot her gift cards when she went shopping with friends. But since most people have mobile phones, it would be easy to store and use the gift cards from there.
After leaving the academy, Yoakam decided to develop an app that would solve this problem. She won a local business competition and received $2,000(13, 800 yuan) from a company to invest(投资)in her idea. She traveled around after school two or three times a week to work on the app. She even gave up some of her hobbies and activities.
The app has helped her realize her interests. So she hopes to major(主修)in business and technology in college.
