3.April 27is Take Our Daughters to Work Day in Britain.Started at first in the United States and brought to Britain in 1994,Take Our Daughters to Work Day has become a special day for girls between 11and 15.On that day thousands of girls take a day off school and go together with one of their parents to their work places.The purpose of this day is to broaden girls'horizons and raise their self-confidence.
For many years people have thought that boys can do better than girls in society.But actually,"girls can be whatever they want to be just like boys,whether it is a pilot,a nurse or a chief executive,"says the chairman of Our Sons and Daughters Charitable Trust,an organization which supported the activity of the Day."Now the girls have a close look at what their parents are doing and this may help them to be more self-confident when they are faced with a choice of work."
Schools and many companies support the activity too.Palmers Green High School for Girls,in north London,has made the Day a necessary part of career education.
Zarina Bart,15,from Palmers Green,went with her mother to her lawyer's office on this year's Take Our Daughters to Work Day.She found it interesting to see her mother at work."It's really strange seeing Mum at work-running around,getting serious and telling people what to do."She has always liked this idea of going into law and thinks it likely that she will follow in her mother's footsteps.Having a chance to see how her mother works has given her more self-confidence.
Experts believe that girls with higher self-confidence aim higher and are more likely to be successful in life.Parents have the most important effect on the confidence of teenage girls.If parents believe in their daughters and show examples both at work as well as at home for them,this will give a lot of help to girls.Take Our Daughters to Work Day is surely a step in the right direction.

8.I still clearly remember that day.I was on the side of the road for about four hours with my big jeep.I put signs in the windows that said,"Need a jack (千斤顶)."
As I was about to give up,a truck stopped and a man got off.He looked at the situation,made a judgment and went back to take a jack.After about two hours,we finished the job with sweats.We were both dirty.His wife took a large bottle of water for us to wash our hands.
I tried to put  20 in the man's hand,but he wouldn't take it,so I went to give it to his wife as quietly as I could.I asked their little girl where they lived,thinking maybe Pd send them a gift.She said they lived in Mexico.They were in Oregon now,so Mommy and Daddy could pick cherries for the next few weeks.After that,they were going to pick peaches and then go back home.
After I said goodbye and started going back to my jeep,the girl ran to me and handed me a tamale (玉米踪子)for lunch.I thanked them again and walked back to my jeep.When I opened the tamale,what did I find inside?My 20!I ran to the truck and the guy rolled down his window.He started shaking his head,smiled,and with what looked like great concentration said in English,"Today you,tomorrow me."Then he drove away,with his daughter waving to me from the back.
