14．Davion Navar Henry Only has spent his whole life in Florida's foster （收养的） care system．His mother was in prison when he was born，and when he did an Internet search for her name in June this year he learned she'd died just a few weeks earlier．He's been moved from here to there throughout his childhood without ever finding somewhere he really belongs．As a teenager now，Davion is starting to feel like he is running out of time-at risk of becoming one of the more than 23，000youths each year who simply"age out"of the foster care system at age 18or older and are left on their own without ever finding a family connection．
Davion decided to take his future into his own hands and asked his caseworker if she could help him speak at a church．She made arrangements at St．Mark Missionary Baptist Church in St．Petersburg，Florida．There，as the article reported，the shy teenager who worked hard to get A so far this year in everything but geometry（几何学） and would love to play football if he had someone to drive him to practice，stood at the pulpit（讲道坛） and asked if"someone，anyone"could adopt him．
Davion's story quickly is shared on social media networks andwebsites around the country．He appears on national television and there is wonderful news to report．More than 10，000familieswant to adopt him．Davion's story has raised awareness of adoption everywhere，but it's important to remember that there are thousands more Davion out there．Davion tells the reporter who first shared his story in a follow up interview："I know what it's like to have nobody，with no Light at the end of the road．no one who wants you．I just keep saying，'There is only one me．But all my friends，all the other guys at the group home，all those other kids need families too．'I just hope they don't give up and that someone gives them a chance．"

Before we left，Li Yanping explained to me that the force of gravity would change three times on our journey and the first change would be the most powerful．Then we were off．As the rocket rose into the air，we were pushed back into our seats because we were trying to escape from the pull of the earth's gravity．It was so hard that we could not say anything to each other．Gradually the weight lessen and I was able to talk to him．"Why is the spaceship not falling back to the earth？On the earth if I fall from a tree I will fall to the ground．"I asked．"We are so far from the earth now to feel its pull，"he explained，"so we feel as if there is no gravity at all．When we get closer to the moon，we shall feel its gravity pull us，but it will not be as strong a pull than the earth's．"I cheered up immediately and floated weightless around in our spaceship cabin watching the earth become smaller and the moon larger．
When we got there，I wanted to explore immediately．But when I tried to step forward，I found myself carrying twice as far as on the earth and fell over．"Oh dear，"I cried，"walking does needs a bit of practice in that gravity has changed．"After a while I got the hang of it and we began to enjoy ourselves．

11．This is not a typical summer camp．Michelle Paw law and eight other teenage girls are participating in the three-day camp offered by the Arlington County Fire Department located just outside Washington．Firefighter Clare Burley is in charge of the program，who said the purpose is to try to get young women interested in considering the fire service as a career．
The free-of-charge，overnight camp is designed to let the girls experience what firefighters do to protect the community．That includes some rigorous（严酷的） activities such as moving a fire victim．"I didn't think I could pull that 170pound body with a friend，but I was actually able to do it．"she said．
They take classes and learn how to climb the ladder on a fire truck，operate emergency tools and rescue an injured person．They also do their share of cleaning the firehouse and the equipment．
"Every week without fail on a Saturday，the job is to wash all the equipment．And we wanted the girls to see this is what we do．This is a typical day in a firehouse，"she said．
Firefighting is still a male-dominated service，but Burley says with 22women on its force of 320the Arlington County Fire Department is above the national average of 4.5percent．She joined the department seven years ago．
"We do everything that the guys do to the same standard．We are tested to the same standard．We are expected to operate at the same standard，"she said．

5．There was once a group of monks（和尚） who went to Australia to spread Buddhism．Everything had to be started from the beginning．After buying a plot of land，they bought bricks，construction materials and with their own hands，they started to build a temple．
A young monk took charge of building the brick wall．He took great care in laying the bricks，ensuring that they were leveled．His progress was slow，due to the great care in his work，but he wasn't bothered，．Finally，when he completed the wall，something caught his eye and made him angry．Despite the great care he took in his work，he had overlooked two bricks that were laid slanted（倾斜）．Because of that，whenever visitors came to the temple，the young monk would show them around to all places，except the brick wall that he had built．
One day，two elderly monks came to the temple．No matter how the young monk tried to bypass the brick wall，the old monks insisted on touring the area around that brick wall．Unwillingly，the young monk brought the elders to the brick wall．
