Last year,I worked in a middle school near my mother's house,and I stayed with her for a month. During that time,I helped her do some housework and buy some food.

After the first week,I noticed that the food was eaten up very quickly. Then I began keeping an eye on my mum. To my surprise,I found that she would put some of the food into a paper bag and go out with it at about nine every morning. And finally,I decided to follow her. I saw her taking the food to the street children. She would also spend a lot of time talking and playing with them.

One day,I talked to a neighbor and found out that my mum was well-known in the area. The children were very friendly with her and even thought of her as their own mother. Then it hit me why wouldn't she want to tell me about it? Was she worried that I would stop buying food if I found out?

When my mum got home,I gave her a big hug (拥抱).I told her she didn't need to keep it a secret from me. And she told me something about the children. Some of them lived with an old lady in a small house. Others slept on the street. For years,she was helping the poor street children by giving them food. After she told me everything,I was so moved by how selfless (无私的) she was. She helped others in need. As her son, I was so proud of my mum.

I continued to buy food for my mum after that. But I always added one more bag for her other children.

Milk is the most complete food in the world. It has many things that we need to help us grow. It can give us energy and good health. Milk is a food enjoyed by people of all ages as we can easily digest it.

Milk is produced by all mother animals to feed their babies after they are born. Some such as cows produce more milk than their young ones need, so the extra milk is used by people. Nowadays, baby cows are often taught to eat solid food earlier, so that we can use most of the cow’s milk. A cow can produce as much as 45 liters of milk a day. She will give good milk if she is fed on rich grass. Many products can be made from cow’s milk. The simplest is cream, which is made from the fat of the milk. Butter is made from cream. Cream is also used for making cakes and other foods. Another common milk product is cheese. Cow’s milk can be also turned into powdered milk.

In countries where cows are not raised, people get milk from other animals. The buffalo gives milk to the people of India. In China, Iran and Turkey, a large number of sheep and goats are kept for their milk. And many Arabs drink camel’s milk. For babies, however, the best of all is their mother’s milk which is given to them during their first few months of life.

Moving out, moving back

In the countries all over the world, people are leaving the countryside in large numbers to find jobs in the cities. They leave because the countryside is much poorer than the cities, and often there isn’t much work there. Services such as hospital and transport are usually much better in cities than they are in the country. They hope that their lives will improve then they move to the city.

But in the big cities of Europe and America-London, Paris, New York, people are moving out of the city. These are usually families who have some money, and want to live a quieter life. They are tired of the noise and the dirt of the city, tired of the crowded streets, crowded trains and buses. They don’t want to sit in traffic any more. They want a house with a garden, and clean air that isn’t polluted.

So they move out. Some don’t go very far, just a little way out of the city, to the towns near the cities, other people move to the real countryside with sheep and cows and green fields! There, they start new lives and try to make new friends.

Not all those who move from the cities to the countryside are happy. After two or three years, many people who have done this feel that it was a big mistake. They don’t make so much money and there isn’t much to do. Country people are very different and aren’t always very friendly.

As a result, quite a lot of people who have moved to the countryside move back to the cities. “It’s wonderful to see crowds in the streets and cinema lights.”they say, “I’m so glad I’m back in the city!”
