13、 One day, A good woman said something that hurt her best friend of many years. She regretted it immediately and wanted to do something to take the words back. To undo (撤销) what she had done, she went to an old, wise woman in the village, explained her situation and asked for advice.
The older woman understood the younger woman’s pain. She knew she could never alleviate the pain, but she could teach her. She said, “Tonight, take your best feather pillow and put single feather on the doorstep of each house in the town before the sun rises.”
The young woman hurried home to prepare for them, even though the feather pillows were very dear to her. All night long, she was busy alone in the cold. Finally she placed the last feather on the step of the last house before daybreak. Just as the sun rose, she returned to the older woman.
“ Now,” said the wise woman, “Go back and refill ( 回 填 ) your pillows with feathers you have put on the steps, and then everything will be as it was before.” “You know that’s impossible! The wind blew away each feather as soon as I placed them on the doorsteps!” the young woman was surprised.
“That’s true,” said the older woman. “Never forget. Each of your words is like a feather in the wind. Once spoken, no amount of effort, regardless how heartfelt ( 发 自 内 心 的 ) or sincere, can never return them to your mouth. Choose your words wisely and treasure the people you love.”

Once, Milo had to spend a few nights at the hospital himself. Poor Eddie often bumped (碰撞) into walls and furniture. Ever worse, he got lost during walks. Angie realized how much Eddie depended on his friend. Luckily, Milo is now fine and back at his BFF’s side, guiding him through life again.

15、At 6:30 in early morning, Chen Liang drives his new yellow school bus through villages, taking children to his kindergartens (幼儿园).
Chen and his wife Pang Qiuxiang ran two kindergartens in Shanqian Village and Lanxi Village in Qingdao.

Once I saw a child pick up an empty biscuit package which was left by another child, and eat the crumbs (食品屑) in it. I was astonished by the scene,” Pang said.

16、Yesterday I went to the nursing home to visit my grandma. She just got out of the hospital recently where she had some serious operations. I wanted to surprise her after work, so I stopped by for a quick visit.
When I got there, she was happy to see me. We hugged, kissed and exchanged greetings. Then I heard a woman crying. It was my grandma’s roommate. The curtain was drawn so I could not see her. She started calling out a name that wasn’t mine but she was certainly talking to me, begging me to go to her side of the room.
I ignored her at first and continued visiting with my grandma. Then she started begging and saying, “Please, come to see me!” So I went to see her.
When I drew the curtain back, she looked so old but flashed me the biggest smile! She opened her arms wide for me to hug her so I bent low and gave her a hug. I sat on her bed and talked with her for a few minutes. She kept calling me by the other name but I did not correct her. She told me stories as if I had been there when they happened.
Finally I went back to visit with my grandma. Then the woman started crying again, saying, “Please, come back.” She finally slept.
I stopped by the nurse’s station and the nurse told me that the lady suffers from Alzheimer’s. I mentioned the name she had called me. The nurse told me it was the lady’s daughter’s name. Then I understood why she wanted me to go to visit her.
