9．It was one of the hottest days of the dry season．We had not seen rain in almost a month．The crops were dying．Cows had stopped giving milk．The streams were long gone back into the earth．If we didn't see some rain soon we would lose everything．
I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I saw my six-year-old son，Billy，walking toward the woods．He was obviously walking with a great effort…trying to be as still as possible．Minutes after he disappeared into the woods，he came running out again，toward the house．
Moments later，however，he was once again walking in that slow purposeful long step toward the woods．This activity went on for over an hour：walking very carefully to the woods，then running back to the house．Finally，my curiosity got the best of me．I quietly walked out of the house and followed him on his journey．
He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked；being very careful not to spill（洒出）the water he held in them．Branches and thorns slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them．He had a much greater purpose．As I looked at him secretly，I saw the most amazing site．
Several large deer appeared threatening in front of him．But Billy walked right up to them．I almost screamed for him to get away．And I saw a baby deer lying on the ground，obviously suffering from heavy loss of water and heat exhaustion，lift its head with great effort to lap up the water cupped in my beautiful boy's hand．
I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart I have ever known working so hard to save a life．As the tears that rolled down my face began to hit the ground，they were suddenly joined by other drops…and more drops…and more．I looked up at the sky．It was as if God，himself，was crying with pride．

9．Charles Dickens is often thought of as one of the greatest British writers．February 7marked the 200th anniversary of his birthday．Yet for many，his language is old-fashioned and his stories often improbable．Then why do so many people know and read Dickens today？
One reason is the British government's insistence that every child study a Dickens novel at school．Alongside William Shakespeare，Dickens is on every English literature school reading list．
His stories，though often long by today's standards，are great moral tales．They are filled with colorful characters．
Earlier this month，a ceremony was held in Portsmouth，where Dickens was born．Prince Charles said at the ceremony："…（Dickens） used his creative talents to campaign passionately for social justice…His characterization is as fresh today as on the day it was written．"
His books stand out from many other writers because of his insight （洞察力） into human nature．Dickens，like Shakespeare，tells us truths about human behaviour．They are as true in the 2Is1century as they were to his readers in the 19th century．
Readers have returned to Dickens'books again and again over the years to see what he has to say about their own times．
No surprise then that it was Dickens whom Britons turned to during the economic crisis in the last couple of years．Dickens helped them make sense of a world that was rapidly falling apart．The BBC adapted one of his less well-known novels，Little Dorrit，into a popular television drama that introduced many Brits to the novel for the first time．A dark story about greed and money，it was the perfect illustration of bad times．
As long as Dickens'novels have something to say to modern audiences，it seems likely that he will remain one of Britain's best-loved writers．
