The second is environmental kindness, which could mean simply recycling or organizing a group event to tidy up a local park or beach.

A few days ago, I ran into a stranger as he passed by. I said sorry to him and he said, \even watching for you. ” We were very polite, this stranger and I. Then we went on our way after saying goodbye.
Later in the kitchen at home, as I cooked our meal, my daughter Betty walked up to me, very quietly. When I turned around, I nearly knocked her down. \
That night, when I lay in bed, my husband said to me, \kitchen floor, and you'll find some flowers there. Betty brought those for you.
She picked them herself-pink, yellow, and your favourite blue.”

George Reeder, 63 , in Somerset has been given a bravery certificate(证书)for saving the life of a baby boy. It was a cold and windy morning. The local harbour master, George Reeder,was carrying out his regular duties when he heard a noise that caught his attention. On the other side of the harbour, some people were pointing and shouting, so he cycled over quickly.
Mr Reeder expected to see a dog in the sea, but instead, he saw a baby’s buggy(婴儿车)in about four metres of freezing cold water. A woman was screaming desperately—her baby boy was strapped into the buggy and was in the water. The strong wind had blown the buggy into the sea. Mr Reeder quickly decided to do something.
‘I went over and saw that the buggy was upside-down…and I jumped in,’ said Mr Reeder. He pulled the buggy over to the sea wall. Then some other people came to help. They tied a rope to the buggy and managed to pull it out of the water and to safety.
Tanya Allen, a passer-by(who, fortunately, was a nurse), gave the baby CPR(心肺复苏术)and was able to get him to breathe again. Mr Reeder remembered seeing a little bit of breath coming out of the baby’s mouth. ‘I thought, he is all right. He’s alive. Brilliant!’ he said. Then an air ambulance helicopter arrived and the baby was taken to hospital. Mr

Mr Reeder said that he hadn’ t really been brave. ‘It was everyone—from Tanya doing the CPR to the helicopter pilot, ’ he said. ‘I’m just glad I could help’.

Say the words ‘reality TV’ and the show that comes into most people’s mind is Big Brother. Love it or hate it, there have been versions (版本)in more than seventy countries! The basic format is simple: put a group of strangers into a house, record everything they do and watch how they manage to live together.
Actually the idea wasn’t original. A similar show, The Real World, was broadcast in 1992 on MTV. But the format really became popular with the success of Big Brother, and it has been copied again and again, including celebrity versions. In similar shows, constants(参选手) have been sent to the jungle or a desert island. In Wife Swap a mother goes to live with a family of strangers and tries to manage their homes; in Young. Dumb an Living of Mum a group of spoil (宠坏的) teenagers with no life skills learn to live together and look after themselves.
