An American named Greg Mortenson has written a very popular book with a very unusual title (标题). It’s called Three Cups of Tea. In it, Mortenson talks about his experiences building schools for poor children in Pakistan and Afghanistan. Why did he do this? And how did the book get its title?

Mortenson worked hard for years to get the money for his first school. Since then, he has built more than 70 schools, and more than 25,000 boys and girls have s5. in them. His work was sometimes very difficult, because he was a foreigner and his customs (习俗) were d6.. At that time, it was natural for the girls to stay at home and do the housework instead of going to school. Some men in the villages were very a7. with him, because they didn’t want schools for girls.
But Mortenson learned about the local culture, and he found a good way to break the ice: by drinking tea with the local people. That’s where the title of his book comes from. The Balti people have a saying, “The first time you drink tea with a Balti, you are a s8.. The second time you have tea, you are an honoured (荣幸的) guest. The t9. time you share a cup of tea, you become family.”

A Sweet Success
One weekend, Taylor, an eight-year-old girl, asked her parents to buy a toy for her, but her father encouraged her to make money by herself. "How can I make money?" Taylor thought for a while and had an idea, “Why not make cakes and sell them at church to raise money to buy the toy?”
The next day, Taylor started her plan. She borrowed $40 from her parents in order to buy tools and materials at first and promised to pay it back. Then she began to make cakes by herself. To her parents’ surprise, she made $175 by selling the cakes that Sunday.
Everyone thought Taylor would buy the toy she wanted. She certainly had made enough money for it, but she didn't. Instead, Taylor decided to buy business cards and had her father's phone number on them. Then she began handing the cards out. More people knew Taylor and came to buy her cakes. Even large companies began to try buying her delicious cakes.
Though Taylor has made a lot of money, she still works hard at school. She also likes to take part in other activities. So Taylor must carefully manage her time. For example, instead of watching TV after school, Taylor might have to bake a lot of cakes for customers. When she has dance lessons on some days, she needs to get her baking done on time so she isn't late for class.
Making cakes may take time and be hard work, but Taylor sees the fun in it. “ I think making cakes is mostly my hobby. ” She says. She also decorates the boxes that are used to pack the cakes. Taylor uses all kinds of decorations to make sure each box looks special for her customers. People love the extra feeling Taylor gives them by decorating the boxes, so more and more people come for her cakes.
