Recently whenever I turned on my computer or my mobile phone, news about the

great effect of Hurricane Harvey on thousands of people caught my eyes. We saw many

unfortunate events. However, there were also the bright news that confirmed the

goodness of mankind. As a journalist, I wrote many human interesting stories during my

career. That's why the story about the guys in the bakery caught my eyes.

When the staff at a Mexican bakery chain in Houston were trapped inside the

building for two days, they didn't sit there feeling sorry for themselves. They used their

time wisely after flooding caused by Hurricane Harvey. While they were waiting for the

eventual rescue that came on Monday morning, four decided to make as many loaves of

bread as possible for their community.

The flood water rose in the street outside. They took advantage of their emergency

power supply to bake bread. They used more than 4,200 pounds of flour to create

hundreds of loaves and sheets of sweet bread. Although the water kept rising, they

continued baking to help more people. By the time the owner managed to get to them,

they had made so much bread that we took the loaves to loads of emergency centers

across the city for people affected by the floods.

The store manager, Brian Alvarado, told The Independent，“Whenever a disaster

occurs, nobody should just feel forlorn. Instead，we should take positive action to save

ourselves and help others. Our acts of kindness will make a big difference.”

More and more people in America are celebrating the Indian holiday Diwali. Diwali

is Hindi for “row of lights". It is the most important holiday in India.

Many people around the world are beginning to celebrate it as well. The United

States is one of the places where the festival is becoming more common. Diwali

celebrations can now be found at American landmarks like Disneyland in California and

New York City's Times Square. They are also held in many parks and museums.

Neeta Bhasin created the Times Square event. She said Indian immigrants have

found great success in America. But, she said, many Americans still do not know much

about India. So, she decided to act. “I felt it's about time that we should take India to

mainstream America and show India's rich culture, heritage, arts and variety to the

world," she said, “and I couldn't find a better place than Times Square.”

Bhasin came to the United States from India 40 years ago. She is president of ASB

Communications, the marketing firm behind Diwali at Times Square. Tens of thousands

of people attend the event, now in its fourth year.

In India, Diwali is a five-day harvest festival held just before the Hindu New Year.

The exact dates change from year to year but Diwali is always in the fall. Celebrations

include lighting oil lamps or candles called “diyas".

A Diwali celebration will light up Disney California Adventure Park in Anaheim

this year. Visitors can watch performances of traditional Indian dances and take part in a

Bollywood dance party. The event is part of a Festival of Holidays program at the

theme park to show cultural traditions from around the world. The program takes place

on November 10th through January 7th.

San Antonio, Texas, also holds a Diwali celebration. And it is one of the nation's

largest celebrations, with more than 15 ,000 people in attendance each year. Visitors can

enjoy Indian dance ，food and fireworks. Organizers also plan to float hundreds of

lighted candles in the San Antonio River, along the city's famous River Walk.

8. Which is the main symbol in the Indian holiday Diwali?

A. Dances. B. Lamps. C. Food. D. Clothes.

9. Why did Neeta Bhasin set up the Times Square event?

A. To make the American culture richer.
