“Kids can make a difference.” Craig Kielburger said. When Craig was 12, he started a group that has helped kids all over the world.

How did Craig get started? In the seventh grade he learned something that made him angry. A 6-year-old boy in Pakistan1. (send) to work in a factory. The boy could not go to school. He could not even play. He had no freedom at all.

Craig compared that with his own life. Laws in his country said that kids must go to school. Education was free to all kids. But in, some countries school was not free. Children from poor families went to work instead of2.(go) to school.

Craig wanted to help those who didn’t have the same advantages as he and his friends. As a result, Craig and some friends started Free The Children. Craig and his friends decided that Free The Children should raise money 3. (build)schools. Craig hoped that learning would help kids in poverty(贫困)live better.

Today, Craig’s charity4.(have) more than one million members in 45 countries. It is still going strong. The money they have raised has done many good things. It5.(help ) build more than 500 schools around the world so far. It also pays for health care in poor communities. Craig has had a lot of success. However, he still remembers his unpleasant start in the seventh grade.

“We were laughed at by other kids, who6.(say) you couldn’t change things,”he says. Still, Craig didn’t give up. Now he wants to help more kids. “Go to freethechildren. com. Tell it to your friends.7.(bring) it to your teachers,”he says. “As you gain more confidence, friend will join you. It just gets easier.”

Last month, 4-year-old Riley ran from his house with his family. Their home in Paradise, California was on fire.

Paradise is a wet place. But this year it got almost no rain. The plants and trees were very dry. So when the fire started, it spread out of control and became the worst fire in Califoria’s history. Lots of houses were burned down, including Riley’s.

Riley took his favorite toy before he left. It was a dinosaur(恐龙). However, he left everything else. Riley’s aunt, Tanya, posted a photo of Riley on Facebook asking for a toy dinosaur because he missed his collection. Soon, boxes started coming.

“All my friends shared my Facebook post,” Tanya said. Now, Riley has about 100 dinosaurs. The family is thankful because the toys are helping Riley deal with his feelings. “Sometimes he’ll cry and say ‘I want to go home,’” Tanya said. He is excited to talk about his new toys, though. “I got lots of dinosaurs. I even got a sweater with my name and a dinosaur on it,” he said.

Riley has bagged up some of the toys. He wants to share them with kids who don’t have anything. “It’s a good lesson for him to pay it forward,” Tanya said, “This means to share the good things he received with others. Maybe they will do the same for someone else.”

I had been unhappy since(自从) my new neighbor moved in. Every time when I began writing, I could hear a girl singing next door. She didn’t sing well, and even out of tune(调). So it is really a noise pollution(噪音污染) for me.

One day, soon after I sat down behind the computer, I heard the girl singing again. I felt it was too noisy, so I had my husband go to next door and complained(抱怨) about the noise. Ten minutes later, my husband came back with a sad look, saying, “That girl is only 17 but she had bone(骨头) cancer. Her mother said that the more painful(痛的) it is, the louder(更大声地) her daughter sings.” I know now the singing helped reduce(减少) her pains.

I said to my husband, “Please tell her mother that the girl can sing as she likes. We don’t mind it at all.”

From that day on, I no longer thought the girl did anything wrong and even got used to her singing. I felt as if(好像) it were like the smell of sunbeams and watching the flowers and plants. The next year I left home on business. My husband phoned me that the girl died.

I returned home in late summer or early autumn. Sitting at home I couldn’t help feeling something wanting. Suddenly I understood that I could no longer hear the next-door girl sing.
