18.HOW to Love Your Parents
Even if you think that your parents are mean-spirited at times,loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life.You love them for the fact that they created you,raised you,and are in part a source of who you are.Here are some ways to love your parents.
(36)B   A gentle"good morning"and"I love you"will warm a coldest heart.Remember that they brought you into this world.Without your parents,you might still wander at an unknown corner in an unknown world.
Respect them more and cherish these moments.You can use these moments to learn from them for when you're off on your own.It's OK to get angry but angry actions don't help you or your parents.Act calmly,cool off,journal about your feelings,or talk to a friend.(37)D  Obey their requests.It will make your attitude better and earn you more respect from them.It may seem like you are going through hell when you don't get what you want or you have to clean.However,you had better remember they keep a roof over your head when it's cold,raining,snowing,or too hot.Understand that parents are human beings and make mistakes.(38)A.Since you can forgive your friends,why not forgive your parents?
 Keep company with them.Do things with your parents like watching TV,or go somewhere with them.(39)E  to their old stories and learn from them.You will find they are your teachers in this way or another.
Some people simply may not be able to love their parents.(40)G  Seek help if you are being abused in any way.Parents do not have a right to harm you.

A.Forgiveness is the key.
B.Tell them you love them every morning.
C.Parents will in turn express their love to you.
D.After this,share your feelings with your parents.
E.Anyway,spend as much time with them as you can.
F.Please remember parents are as important as friends.
G.There can be realistic reasons for this,family violence for example.

"You saw that with your own eyes?"asked old Jacob."Of course I did,"said Jacoble proudly."It's a good thing that you really saw that big,flying,green rabbit,"said old Jacob,"because that old bridge we are going to walk over is a very strange one.As soon as anyone who hasn't told the truth comes on it,the bridge breaks in two."They continued walking.
"Jacob,"said Jacoble a little later,"you know that big,green,flying rabbit I saw yesterday…Well,it wasn't really flying,and…it wasn't quite as big as an elephant…but it was very big,about the size of a horse!""Big as a horse?"asked Jacob as they got closer to the bridge and little Jacoble began not to feel so well.
"Jacob,"said Jacoble."That big,green rabbit I saw yesterday,well,I had something in my eye and so I couldn't see that well.It wasn't a very big rabbit but it was green.Yes,that's what it was-all green!"
Old Jacob didn't say a word.He just walked over the bridge.But Jacoble didn't go after him because he was afraid and he knew why he was afraid.He stood at the bridge and said,"Oh,Jacob!You know that rabbit I saw yesterday.It wasn't green.No.It was just a little,brown rabbit."
Then he was not afraid of anything any more and he ran happily over the bridge.

One of his kids was a girl with a rare disease that paralyzed(瘫痪)her from the neck down.She couldn't do anything,and she was very depressed.My dad decided to try to help her.He started visiting her in her room,bringing paints,brushes and paper.He stood the paper up,put the paintbrush in his mouth and began to paint.He didn't use his hands at a11.All the while he would tell her,"See,you can do anything you set your mind to.''
At the end of the day,she began to paint using her mouth,and she and my dad became friends.Soon after,the little girl was sent home because the doctors felt there was nothing else they could do for her.My dad also left the children's hospital for a little while because he became i11.Some time later after my dad had recovered and returned to work,in came the little girl who had been paralyzed and only this time she was walking.She ran straight over to my dad and hugged him really tight.She gave him a picture she had done using her hands.At the bottom it read:"Thank you for helping me walk.''
My dad would cry every time he told US this story and SO would we.He would say sometimes love is more powerful than doctor,and my dad-who died just a few months after the little girl gave the picture--loved every single child in that hospital.

It has taken us a while to get here,as we already left El Chorro on 4 April.After rushing through Spain in two days,however,we came to an inevitable slow-down when we entered France.Inevitable,as France has simply too much to offer for us.So as soon as we crossed the Pyrenees,our driving sequence became something like driving a few kilometres,visiting a castle,driving a few kilometres,taking pictures of a nice church,driving a few kilometres,having a quick peek at a fleas market,driving a few kilometres,visiting a museum etc.When we entered Brittany the real sightseeing started,in Vannes,in Lorient,in Brest and then on to Normandy:Le Mont St Michel,Bayeux and finally,finally the D-Day beaches.I always wanted to visit these,for obvious reasons I would say,but my father,realistic as he was,calculated the chances that it would rain a considerable amount of days of a three-week holiday and always decided against it.But a few days ago I finally stepped onto Gold Beach (where the Brits landed) and I was greeted by the Norman sun.A beautiful day.

10.Santa's gift bag full of air is no longer a joke,as a Canadian company that sells crisp,canned air from the Rocky Mountains has cashed in on China's air pollution.
Just two months after arriving in China,Vitality Air's first 500 canisters were sold out.The next pre-ordered 4,000 canisters are expected to be delivered to the country in two weeks,said Catherine Qi,marketing director of Vitality Air China.Vitality Air said its products are sold primarily to high-end clubs,nightclubs and international schools in China.
The air is harvested from the Rocky Mountains and is available in two varieties-Banff and Lake Louise.The price is 129 yuan (﹩19.95)per canister,Qi told China Daily."Our products sell not only in China,but also other places including the Middle East and India,"she said.The product originated with a practical joke in which Vitality Air founder Moses Lam put a plastic bag of fresh air on eBay with a price tag of 99 US cents.It sold quickly.The next bag of fresh air was auctioned(拍卖)at﹩168 and also was sold.Then Lam realized the demand for quality,convenient and fresh air by people who have stayed indoors for a long time.Each canister of 7.7 liters will supply 150 doses.The product is available at Taobao,an online marketplace run by Alibaba Group Holding,and at Vitality Air's website,said Qi.
Zhang Naxin,a respiratory physician(呼吸内科医生) in Tianjin,told Daily News that 150 doses of Canadian air won't make much of a difference."A person breathes 20 times on average per minute,and one bottle would last for less than eight minutes."
Tina Wang,a manager at a logistics company in China,said she was intrigued by the product."I've had the flu this week,and the bad air here doesn't help me get better.This bottle of fresh air is just what I need,"said Wang,who added that she thought the price was too high.
