I had a picnic one day with my sister. We both like to ride her motorcycle and that day we

rode it to the nearest park. We bought some coffee and cakes, and then we enjoyed our food.

Within a few hours, the sky changed and looked ready for a heavy rain. We packed everything and

were ready to go. My sister, who was sitting on a bench suddenly was very still and couldn't talk

to me.She couldn't move. Her eyes were rolling and she was about to lose consciousness( 知觉). I

held her in my arms and asked if she wanted to rest. She didn’t answer and only said“Sorry.”

me carry my sister to a safer place. The ambulance arrived and we went to a hospital where she

was treated in time and she came to life the next morning after some rest and medical help.

An interesting fact was that I guessed the woman in the raincoat was a doctor or a nurse. I

later learned from one of the police officers who told me: “No.She was an ordinary person who

Huckleberry Finn didn’t have a home because his mother died and his father, who was often

drunk, rarely stayed in one place. For a while, Huck lived with a kind old lady called Widow

Douglas and her sister, Miss Watson. He liked Widow Douglas, but he was unhappy that she

wanted him to wear clean clothes and went to school.

Huck was pleased when his father returned and took him to live in a hut in the woods. But

soon Mr Finn started hitting the boy and locking him inside the hut when he went out. Huck ran

away to Jackson Island, where he happened to meet Jim, Miss Watson's slave, who was hiding

there. After a few days Huck dressed as a girl and went into town to find out what was happening.

He discovered that people thought Jim was on the island and that there was a reward of $300 for

anyone who found him. So Huck and Jim decided it's time to leave.

They got on the raft as fast as they could, put all their things on it, and moved off down the

river. When it began to get light, they hid. When it was dark again, they traveled on. On the fifth

night they passed St Louis, and they decided to go on down to Illinois. There were no slaves in

Illinois.

They slept for most of that day and they began their journey again when it was dark. After

some time, they saw lights on the Illinois side of the river and Jim got very excited.

After that, they went on down the river. Suddenly, a big steamboat came at them very fast,

Jim and Huck jumped off the raft into the water.

When Huck came up out of the water. He couldn't see Jim anywhere. He called out his name

again and again,but there was no answer.“He's dead!” Huck thought. Slowly, Huck swam to the

side of the river and got out. Suddenly a lot of very angry dogs jumped out at him. They made a

terrible noise and someone called from the house “Who’ s there?”

“George Jackson”, Huck answered quickly."I’ve fallen off a river boat.”

Well,the people who lived in that house were very kind, and they took Huck in and gave him

some new clothes and a good meal. He told them that his family were all dead, so they said he

could stay with them as long as he wanted. It was a beautiful house and the food was good there,

so he stayed.

" You can use me as a last resort (选择), and if nobody else volunteers, then I will do it. "This

was an actual reply from a parent after I put out a request for volunteers for my kids' lacrosse(长曲

棍球)cub.

I guess that there's probably some demanding work schedule, or social anxiety around

stepping up to help for an unknown sport. She may just need a little persuading. So I try again and

tug at the heartstrings. I mention the single parent with four kids running the show and I talk about

the dad coaching a team that his kids aren't even on..... At this point the unwilling parent speaks

up, "Alright. Yes, I'll do it.”

I' m secretly relieved because I know there's real power in sharing volunteer responsibilities

among many. The unwilling parent organizes the meal schedule, sends out emails, and collects

money for end-of-season gifts.Somewhere along the way, the same parent ends up becoming an

invaluable member of the team. The coach is able to focus on the kids while the other parents are

relieved to be off the hook for another season. Handing out sliced oranges to bloodthirsty kids can
