Since China carried out it's help to the poor policy, the government has took many measures to make sure that people from poor families can go to hospital. At the same time, all hospitals have set up a “green channel” to provide poor people who cannot afford medical treatment with financial(经济的) support.

Some hospitals are also taking their own steps to provide assistance(援助). One of the hospitals in Hangzhou has set up an online charity community called “i-home”, which is set up specially for poor patients. They can communicate about their problems with doctors online before they go to hospitals. The “i-home” also provides interest-free(无息的) loan(贷款) for poor patients.

Zhang Kai, who came from a rural family in Zhejiang, said his family sank into hopelessness when his father was found to have a rare(罕见的) disease. The treatment would cost 30,000 yuan and his family couldn't afford it at all.

And the hospital has also agreed to reduce the medical fee(费用) by 10%.” He said he now has nothing to worry about. “As I will graduate from university in a month and I have found a job in a company, I will help my father to pay back the loan.”

Mother's Day is celebrated in the USA. It is also a holiday in some other countries. It is on the second Sunday in May. It is a day to thank mothers. On that day mothers usually receive flowers or cards. On the cards, children will write “Thanks, Mom”, “To the best mother in the world”, “Best wishes for Mother's Day” and so on. We should make mothers happy on that day.

Where does the idea for the holiday come from? We should thank Miss Anna M. Jarvis. She brought up the idea of having such a day. She lived in West Virginia. Her mother died on May 9th, 1905.She had a deep love for her mother. She wrote letters to some important persons. In her letters she asked them to decide a day for all mothers. Then Mother's Day was made on the second Sunday in May by the USA in 1913.

In China, children give presents to their mothers on Mother's Day, or the whole family go out and try to do something nice for their mothers. Mothers always think of others more than themselves. They love their children and families very much. Everybody should show his love to his mother and help her as much as possible.

long ago people made fires from lightning(闪电)。 But they had to keep the fire burning, for they couldn’t start it again if there was no lightning. Later, they found out hitting two piece of stone together could make a spark (火花). The spark could fire dry leaves. In this way they could make the fire again if it went out. Then people also learned to make a fire by rubbing. They made a hole on a big piece of wood and put a smaller stick into the hole. They turned the stick again and again. After a few minutes they got a fire.

As years went by, people learned other ways to make a fire. Sometimes they used the heat from sun. they held a piece of glass in the right way and made a piece of paper on fire.
