If you had only three years left to live, how would you spend your time? It’s a hard question and few of us would even like to think about it. But 18-year-old Huang Ge has to answer this question and he says, “I want to thank the people who have helped me.”
At the age of one, Huang’s mother left the family. Six years later, he was badly ill. He has been using a wheelchair since 9 years old. Doctors said he would only live to 18.After Huang’s story went on TV, hundreds of people sent money to help him. The boy was so moved that he decided to thank every one of them. But he has to be tied to his wheelchair. And the family can only afford a three-wheeled motorcycle(三轮摩托). Since 2003, the father and son have traveled 14,000 kilometers, to 10 provinces, and thanked more than 30 helpers.          
“I am moved by the story of the boy. We need the courage to face death, and we should also show our gratefulness to those who help us,” says an online post on CCTV. com.

Japanese children are so happy because they have three festivals each year. Including Boy’s day, they have Girl’s day and the 7-5-3 Festival.
May 5th is Japanese Children’s Day. But since the festival is mainly celebrated by boys, it is usually called Boy’s day. On Boy’s day, children don’t have to go to school. Each family with a boy hangs up huge carp-shaped flags(鲤鱼旗). The flags are usually with three colors: black (standing for the father), red (standing for the mother), and blue (standing for the son). 1) Japanese parents believe that the flags will bring their boys good luck and give them courage and power.
Girl’s day is a girls’ festival on March 3rd. It is also called the Doll’s Festival because on that day, families get a set of dolls at home for their daughters. It is celebrated because the parents want their children to be strong and healthy.
2)The 7-5-3 Festival is for________aged three, five and ________. Japanese people think that these three ages are the luckiest ones in one’s life. On that day, these children get special candies wrapped(包裹) in beautiful bags. The candy is the symbol of a long and healthy life for these children. The 7-5-3 Festival falls in November.

A woman saw three o1d men sitting in her front yard.She said,“I don’t think I know you,but you must be very hungry. Please come in and have something to eat. ”
“We don’t go into a house together,”they replied．
“Why is that?” she asked.
One of the old men answered.“His name is Wealth，this is Success, and I am Love.” Then he said,“Now go in and discuss with your family which one of us you want in your house.”
Then the woman went in and told her family what was said. She said “Let’s invite Wealth. Let him come in and bring us nice things.We have been so poor.”His husband disagreed,“My
dear,why don't we invite Success? Don’t you want me to be a successful man?.”
Then the daughter asked,“Would it be better to invite Love? Our life will then be filled with 1ove!” “Let’s take our daughter's advice(建议)s,” said the father and mother.
So the woman went out and asked, “Which one of you is Love? Please come in and be our Guest. ”Love got up and started walking toward the house. The other two also got up and followed Him. Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success, “I only invited Love. Why are you coming along?” The two o1d men answered,“If you had invited Wealth or Success, two of us would have stayed out, but since you have invited Love, wherever he goes, we go with him. Where there is Love, there is Wealth and Success.”

A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms（习语）, though my teacher told us the importance again and again. But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusing experience.
One day, I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be surprised. Gently shaking his head，shrugging his shoulders, he said，“You don’t say!” “You don’t say!” I was puzzled. I thought, perhaps this is not a right topic. “Well, I’d better change the topic.” So I said to him. “Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? By the way, have you ever been there?” “Certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It was wonderful.” He was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide. “The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world. We are very proud of it.” Soon I was interrupted（打断）again by his words: “You don’t say!” I couldn’t help asking, “Why do you ask me not to talk about it?” “Well, I didn’t ask you to do so,” he answered, greatly surprised. I said, “Didn’t you say ‘you don’t say’?” Hearing this, the Englishman laughed to tears. He began to explain, “ ‘You don’t say’ actually means ‘really!’ It is an expression of surprise. Perhaps you don’t pay attention to English idioms.” I realized I had made a fool of myself. Since then I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions. Remember: what the English teachers said is always right to us students.
