  Conor Grennan was unwilling to be a volunteer(志愿者).The 29-year-old American was not sure if he had the skills or a strong feeling for it.

  However, he went to work at an orphanage(孤儿院)in Nepal.His first thought was to make people impressed.

  "I thought that if I volunteered just once.I could retell the story over and over," Grennan said in a Huffington Post article.

  However, his three-month stay it the orphanage turned into in unusual experience.It was 2004 and Grennan had given up his job to begin a year-long around-the-world trip, His first three months were spent in Nepal.

  When he arrived in the village, he knew nothing about the children or the local culture.When he opened the gate of the Little Princes Children's Home, he was faced by the excited children.

  The young American ended up caring for 18 children.He later discovered that they were trafficked(被拐卖的)children.So he walked through the mountains with great difficulty to find the kids' families, "I started walking with photos of the kids." he told the Reuters reporter."I would show up in villages and show photographs around.I went with 24 photos, and I found 24 families."

  At the same time, he put his heart into Nepalese culture.

  Grennan said, “Volunteering is the single best way to see how the rest of the world lives.”

  He also encouraged others to do what he had done.He believes that volunteering needs only making decisions to show up.

  Grennan's fight against child-trafficking has changed him.His book, Little Prince, came out last week.

Ever since I was a little child, my parents have told me to be honest because it is the right thing to do. As I got older, I realized something very important. If just once you are deceitful and tell a lie, it will greatly change people’s opinions about you and their way of acting toward you. When you tell a lie, you lose that person’s trust forever or have to work your whole life to get it back.
It is my personal goal to achieve great things in life and honesty(诚实) will sure help me get there. For me right now losing somebody’s trust would be a truly terrible thing. My parents would be stricter on the things they let me do and the places that they used to let me go to. My friends would never again tell me a secret or believe many things I told them. Whatever you do for a living or wherever you live, honesty is something very important.
Honesty gets you much higher in life while telling a lie can make you get into more problems. I can already tell that the great people I have met so far are all honest people.
I hope that I’ll never fall into a situation where I’ll lie. Honesty is just as important to me as my family. Already, I know it is something that will improve my future and my relationship with all people. It is something about myself that I hope never to lose no matter what happens. Honesty will help me no matter whether I’m at school, home or just hanging out with friends. It is something that I hope my children will also have and value.

Is human blood all the same? “Yes,” you may say.“It's all red.”

Well,it's not as simple as you might think.

Blood is made up of different parts,such as red blood cells,white blood cells,and platelets(血小板).

Two chemical molecules(分子)on the red blood cells make people's blood different.Scientists mark one molecule "A" and the other molecule "B".

According to which and how many molecules are on the red cell, scientists divide blood into four types: A, B, AB and O.

Your blood type will stay the same your whole life.

Scientists have been wondering if there are some links between people's blood type and their personalities but they don't know for sure yet.

  But some say that people with the same blood type may have things in common.

What's your blood type? Do you have family members or friends who are the same type as you? Read the following. Are you like this?

People with type A: They look peaceful from the outside. But they ask too much of themselves that they may be very nervous inside. They get happy or sad easily. Sometimes they are shy but always very careful. They can easily win people's trust.

People with type B: They have strong minds. Once they start a task, they don't give up easily. They'll try their best to finish it and do it well. Type B people always try to make themselves different from others. They want to do things in their own way in life.

People with type AB: They are maybe the strangest among all blood types. They can be both open and shy, noisy and quiet at the same time! They are responsible (负责的) and always ready to help others.

People with type O: They're open and good at making friends. They always start tasks but don't always finish them. They have lots of new ideas and love to be the centre of attention. They always strongly believe in themselves.
