Helping others is easier than you think. You don't need to wait to become a rich man like Bill Gates to help poor. You can become a volunteer, you can donate (捐献) your time, you can donate your old clothes and so on. And by doing so, you can become a better and happier person. 

Choose some people to support. For example, homeless people, poor children and so on. All of these are suitable. 

Decide what you are able to give. Yes! Sometimes it isn't only money—you can donate your time as a volunteer, you can donate your knowledge teaching poor children, you can donate your old clothes, you can donate food or you can share a meal with a hungry child. 

Tell people about it. Tell your friends or your children. Put it in your blog(博客) or on your website. In this way, the good work you do will be multiplied (增加)!

The Plain of Jars(石缸平原)is a great man?made wonder(奇观)in Laos,a country in southeast Asia.It is made up of thousands of stone jars.More than 90 jar sites have been found there.Each site has from 1 to 400 stone jars.The jars come in different sizes from 1 to 3 meters tall.Scientists have long been perplexed by their original(最初的)use.

Not long ago,scientists found ancient things and burial practices at the Plain of Jars.“This will be the first major effort since the 1930s to try to understand the purpose of the jars and who created them.”Dougald O'Reilly from the Australian National University said.“The jars are empty now,but it is possible that they were once used to hold bodies.”

Only a few simple objects,such as a handful of glass beads(玻璃珠),have been found at the burial sites.And scientists think they are from about 500 or 600 BC to 550 AD.
