12.I have a younger brother.To me,he is a fourteen-year-old kid named Joe,with blond hair and blue eyes.To others,he is different.Where I see a kid who just needs a lot more attention,others see a mentally disabled boy,a kid who cannot walk or talk or think for himself.I see someone who just makes daily routine a bit less routine.Others see an annoyance,a bother.
This is not to say that I have never felt resentful(怨恨的) toward Joe.He is my brother,and with that comes responsibility."Gina,could you stay in tonight and watch your brother?""Gina,do me a favor and feed him dinner and change his diaper(尿布) later,please?""Could you come home right after school today and get Joe off the bus?"
These are phrases that I have heard since I was twelve.And sure,they have made me resent my brother to a certain extent.I would think:that's not fair!Everyone else can stay after and be a member of this club,or get extra help from that teacher.Or,all my friends are going out tonight,why can't I?And,how come I have to feed him?He is not my son!
However,the small amount of resentment I feel toward my brother is erased a thousand times over by what I have learned from him.Besides making me responsible from a young age,and helping me be more accepting  of all kinds of people,he has taught me to be thankful for what I have.
I know that there are moment in my life that I should cherish and that Joe will never experience.He will never laugh so hard that he cries.He will never feel the glory of a straight-A report card.He will never comfort a  best friend crying on his shoulder.And he will never know how much his family love him.
Because he will never know,it is up to me to know,every second,how lucky I am.It is up to me to realize that life should be lived to its fullest,and that you should always,always be grateful that God,or whoever are the powers that be,gave you the ability to live your life the way you were meant to live it.

15.Goedeker's loves to see happy customers,so every year we host a drawing competition in January and July,and one lucky person receives an iPad Mini.Goedeker's customers can enter the competition through many ways,such as sending product or customer reviews.
When I spoke to July's drawing winner,I couldn't believe the encouraging story behind her efforts.Sari Bailey entered the drawing competition in hopes of winning the iPad Mini for her blind granddaughter,Aubrey.Aubrey,soon-to-be 4years old,was born with a rare condition called Septo-Optic Dysplasia.The condition,also known as De Morsier's Syndrome,happens when the optic(视觉的) nerves do not develop fully before the baby is born.Aubrey once had an iPad Mini,given to her by the Gia Foundation,which provides an iPad Mini to the blind once a year.However,it was stolen,and her family did not know how they could replace it.The iPad was extremely important to Aubrey's development,as she uses it for intensive therapy(强化治疗).Each week,Aubrey works through an hour of physical and speech therapy.
While Aubrey may struggle with her sight,she loves music and plays the piano and sings fairly well for a three-year-old!As one can imagine,the iPad plays a huge role in this.She also finished her first year of school in May.
Sari says,"We are very happy for her progress.We like to have as many tools for learning as possible available to Aubrey,thus,my desire for the winning of the iPad Mini!
She is a very special little girl and I love her dearly."
