A few years ago my sister moved from her home in Alabama to Buffalo, New York. Since moving to Buffalo she’s become a big hockey fan and has encouraged me to start watching it. Unfortunately it’s very difficult to find hockey on television here in Alabama. Since hockey games don’t air very much on television I’ve had to look for different ways to watch hockey games.
I often see websites that claim if you go to their website you can watch television on your computer. I try out many of these websites hoping that one of the television stations is a northern station that airs hockey games. Unfortunately, most of them don’t work. Either the site doesn’t really give you what they advertise or their video player doesn’t work properly. But finally I’ve found one website that actually works.
Free Tube is a site that you can go to and watch Television online for free. You don’t have to download any kind of special software or pay money or even sign up for anything. All you have to do is go to Free Tube, choose your channel and start watching.
The different channels to choose from are separated into different categories like news, business, entertainment, music and sports. You’re not going to find channels like NBC or ABC so you can watch the latest episode of Heroes or Grey’s Anatomy but it does include some popular channels like Cartoon Network and ESPN.
There is also a movie section. Each movie channel airs different sorts of films like adventure, classics, comedy or horror and that channel will always air that kind of movies. The movie section also includes my favorite station called Maxx Trailers (预告片). Maxx Trailers airs nothing but movies trailers 24 hours a day. Some of the trailers are for movies coming out and some are for movies that have already been released but already released movies don’t go back farther than a couple of months.
So far I haven’t had any problems with Free Tube’s video player either. Whenever I choose a channel, the video almost always works and usually loads every quickly. The only problem I have with Free Tube is that there is currently a glitch if you’re using Firefox. Once you choose a channel you can’t select another channel to change to, your web browser will freeze up. So if you’re using Firefox, the only way to switch channels is to leave the site and re-enter the site, when choosing what channel you want to go to. However, Free Tube is aware of this glitch and is working with Mozilla to get it fixed right away.
If you’re missing some show everyone is talking about like Grey’s Anatomy or Heroes, this isn’t really a solution for that. But Free Tube is a good way to find channels that you weren’t aware of; there are several good stations to be found.

I take the train into work every morning from a train station near my house. I can get to the station quite 31 because there’s a short cut(捷径) to the station. But in the summer, it can get quite smelly because of all the 32 . So I always try to 33 through it. Today I was trying to do so as usual when something made me stop for a moment. I saw the most beautiful 34 by an old woman walking in front of me with the help of a white stick.
She was short and 35 and had white hair. She was walking 36 as each step took some effort. I hadn’t specially noticed her at first, until she stopped near a rubbish bin.
She slowly placed her walking stick 37 the rubbish bin. Then she leaned(倾斜) on it with her right hand. She bent down and reached for the rubbish. She clearly found it difficult and it took her a while. She 38 some rubbish with her left hand and slowly straightened herself up again. All the while she used the rubbish bin to 39 herself. She threw the rubbish inside the bin and then 40 walking. It all took her great effort.
There’s so much rubbish and no one ever does 41 about it. I was moved to see this old woman make such a great effort to keep even a small part of it clean! I haven’t been able to 42 thinking about that all day.
I want to follow her example. I’ve decided to pick up rubbish off the ground if I meet from now on. I hope people will do the same as I do.
