How do you feel when you stay in hospital alone? Jenny, 13, a US student, feels bored. She knows the feeling because she has been in hospital many times herself. One day, she thought of an idea—if patients could get some books to read, they would feel better. So, from May, she and many of her friends began to collect books for hospital patients.
In six months the students collected 1,250 books at school. They decided to donate the books to the North Shore Medical Centre, a children’s hospital next door to their school. “There are books for kids of all ages, from babies up to high school level.” said Jenny.
The students put the books into “early readers”, “middle readers” and “advanced readers”. Then they wrote their best wishes to patients on bookmarks (书签) and letters, put the books in big boxes and donated them to the hospital.
“We wrote things like, “Keep on reading!’ and ‘Hope you feel better!’,” siad John, 14, Jenny’s brother. “And we also wrote some funny things to make them laugh.”
Frank, 12, and Steven, 14, helped carry 16 large boxes of books into a car. “I think these books will make me a lot of patients feel happy.” said Frank. Steven shared his opinion. “It is really the most meaningful thing that I have ever done in my life.”

Today Grandma comes for a visit. She gives my sister and me a box of chocolate candies. We say "thank you!"
Then Jenny quickly takes off the box. The pieces all look the same! I can't tell which pieces are hard inside and which are soft! I only like the soft ones. Jenny does not care. She is happy to get any kind of candy!
I slowly look at all the pieces; I don't know which one to choose. Just then Dad calls us Grandma is going home, He wants us to say goodbye to her. I hurry to the front door where they are standing. Jenny comes a few minutes later. I say, "Grandma, I hope to see you soon. I always feel sad when you leave. "Jenny stands behind me and doesn't say anything. After Grandma goes home, I find out why Jenny doesn't say anything.

Sam: In    idea, you are an adult at the     of 18. That's when you can vote(投票). You can help to   who rules the whole country. That's also a grown-up does! My grandfather couldn't vote    he was 21. They changed it to 18 in 1971.

Jenny: I don't     it's hard to say. I can drive a car at 16, can't I? When you have a driver's license, you can    it to people to tell them your age for all kinds of things.      sixteen must be the age when you change from a      person to an adult. Because you can tell others you are not a       any more.

Suzie: Well, I think there is    wrong with American laws for when young people can    things. I can vote at 18 and drive at 16. So you would think that 18 is a grown-up,     16 isn't.
