8．Mariah Bailey would like to make a difference with her dad and his organization．Sidewalk Angels Inc．Mariahs dad would go out on the streets to help the homeless in the community，and sometimes Mariah would go out with him．"After being with him on so many occasions，I started to get to know the people that he helped，"Mariah said．"I started to learn about who they were as people and started building a friendship with them．"
While Mariah's dad liked to do his good deeds，Mariah thought that she would like to start something similar that was betterknown to raise even more awareness．After years of making a difference，her organization，Trending Change，was officially launched in October 2013through her dad's organization．
How does a 12yearold girl start her organization？Well，for Mariah，she gave up everything she would have received for Christmas and used the money to start Trending Change．Now Mariah has helped countless numbers of people feel loved and comforted through her organization．
Over the last year，Mariah has done a few campaigns，raising over $1，100．Her big goal for last December was to provide blessing bags for hundreds of homeless people in Myrtle Beach．Each blessing bag not only had daily necessities，but Mariah also added notes to each bag reminding each person that they were loved and she would be there for them until things got better．
"My goal is to let the homeless know that they have not been forgotten and that they are loved，"Mariah said．For people who are homeless，there are a few outlets for them to find food and a shelter．However，no one at these homeless shelters is obligated（有义务） to show compassion．"Sometimes people are starving for more than food．Sometimes they are starving for love．"

7．In October on the east coast of Australia migrating（迁徙）humpback whales（座头鲸）pass very close to the shore．With the help of Max Egan，we went to film them near Byron Bay．It was extremely exciting to spot the little puffs（水柱）of spray on the horizon．When migrating，the whales can be traveling at speeds of about 12km/h and can dive under anywhere between five and forty minutes．but with many years of experience Max usually guided our boat to exactly the right place to provide us with amazing sighting．As the whales break the surface like submarines（潜水艇），the water spills off their broad dark backs and huge tails．Then，with a powerful down stroke，they dive back into the depths of the sea，leaving just a smooth glassy patch of water or"footprint"on the surface to show where they had been．
One day we had traveled up and down the shore and far out to the sea in search of whales，but the horizon was deserted．There was no report of whales in the area so we decided to test out Max's new，highly sensitive hydrophone（水中听音器）and the result was astonishing．As soon as the hydrophone was in the water，we found ourselves listening to the most beautiful voices．What may have seemed like a vast empty ocean was filled with the singing of whales．
It is the males which sing，as they migrate between feeding and breeding（养育）grounds．No one knows for sure what the purpose of these songs is，whether they are love songs to the females or warnings to other males to stay away．

6．Ammie Reddick from East Kilbride，Lanarkshire，was only 18months old when she had the accident that had scarred（留下创伤）her for life．The curious child reached up to grab the wire of a hot kettle in the family kitchen and poured boiling water over her tiny infant frame．
Her mother Ruby turned round and，seeing Ammie horribly burnt，called an ambulance which rushed her daughter to a nearby hospital．Twenty percent of Ammie's body had been burned and all of her burns were thirddegree．There，using tissue taken from unburned areas of Ammie's body，doctors performed complex skin transplants to close her wounds and control her injuries，an operation that took about six hours．Over the next 16years，Ammie underwent 12more operations to repair her body．
When she started school at Maxwelton Primary at age 4，other pupils made cruel comments or simply wouldn't play with her．"I was the only burned child in the street，the class and the school，"she recalled，"some children refused to become friends because of that．"
Today，aged 17，Ammie can only ever remember being a burned person with scars； pain is a permanent part of her body．She still has to have two further skin transplants．Yet she is a confident，outgoing teenager who offers inspiration and hope to other young burns victims．
She is a member of the Scottish Burned Children's Club，a charity set up last year．This month，Ammie will be joining the younger children at the Graffham Water Center in Cambridgeshire for the charity's first summer camp．"I'll show them how to get rid of unkind stares from others，"she says．Ammie loves wearing fashionable sleeveless tops，and she plans to show the youngsters at the summer camp that they can too．"I do not go to great lengths to hide my burns scars，"she says，"I gave up wondering how other people would react years ago．"
