题目内容
Two years ago,I bought my girlfriend Nicole a pair of fur earmuffs (耳套) .She loved the gift and she wore them every day.
Last week,Nicole was on her way home from work,taking the New York City subway. The train stopped at Union Square. As Nicole stepped through the subway door,the earmuffs fell from her head,and dropped on the rails (铁轨) below. Nicole was upset. "Dot't go down to the rails," somebody shouted to her. Good advice. Union Square is a busy station,with trains running past nearly every minute,and there's electricity running through the rails.
Nicole walked up to a subway worker and explained what had happened. "Sony,I can't help you," the worker said. "Maybe you could use a stick or something to fish it out." Where would she get something like that at the subway station? Disappointed,Nicole walked back to where the earmuffs fell. A homeless man was sitting right near the place. Nicole didn't notice him there earlier. Next to the man was a small box,full of various (各种各样的) junk he had collected. " Excuse me," Nicole said, "but you don't have a stick by any chance,do you? My earmuffs fell...”
The man looked at his things and pulled out a long wooden stick. He went to where the earmuffs fell and used the stick to reach down to them. It was difficult to do so,and he had to stop when a train was coming,but the man didn't give up. At last,he got the earmuffs onto the end of the stick and brought them back up to Nicole.
Nicole was grateful. She also said she would give the man some money for helping her. But the man said there was no need to do so. When Nicole was taking out her wallet from her bag,the man walked away quickly,along with his box of junk. Then he disappeared around the corner before she could catch up with him.

Subject : Eco-Friendly Transportation Saturday 9th June 8:05 a.m. Hi everyone! My name's Tony. Fm doing a project about greener ways to travel. I want to know if anyone has any good ideas. Thanks for your help! Comments[4] |
I think people should do more things online at home. Why pollute the air ( by driving your car to the supermarket when you can order your weekly shopping on the Internet? You can also book holidays as well. Posted hy Billy on June 1 1th 7 :.36 a.m. |
I try to use public transportation whenever I can. I take the bus to college and walk home. When my mum wants to give me a lift, I always refuse, as I can get there quickly by bus. Also, the buses in my town arc electric, I so they are environmentally friendly ! Posted by Carol on June 12th 10 :35 a.m. |
Why not use two wheels? Any motorcycle will use less fuel (燃料)than a car. You don't get caught in traffic jams either ! But in my opinion, the best things are bicycles. They don't produce any pollution and help you to keep fit at the same time. Posted by Daz on June 12th 16:00 p.m. |
I can't get to my university by bus or train. So I found three other girls who live nearby and share my car with them. And now we take it in turns to drive every day. I have cut down the cost―and most importantly, I am protecting the environment ! Posted by Angela on June 15th 9 :36 p.m. |
