Days after Argentina canceled all international passenger flight to protect the country from the novel corona virus. Juan Manuel Ballestero began his journey home.
The 47-year-old sailor could have remained on the tiny island of Portugal to ride out the era of lockdowns in a scenic place largely spared by the virus. But the idea of spending what he thought could be the end of the world" away from his family was unbearable. So, with the plan to be with his elderly parents in Argentina for his father’s 90th birthday, he loaded his 29-foot sailboat with caned food, fruit and rice and set sail in mid-March.
Friends tried to persuade Ballestero out of stepping on the dangerous journey, and authorities in
Portugal warned him he might not be allowed to re-enter if he ran into trouble. But he was determined and said this was a one-way ticket.
Sailing across the Atlantic in a small boat is challenging in the best of circumstances. The added
difficulties of doing it during a pandemic became clear three weeks into the trip.
On April 12, authorities in Cape Verde refused to allow him to stop at the island nation to restock
(再补给) his supply of food and fuel, Ballestero said. Hoping he had enough food to carry him
through, he turned his boat west. With less fuel than he hoped for, he would be more at the mercy of
the wind. More days into the journey, he became panicked by the light of a ship that he thought was
tracking him and seemed to be approaching closer and closer. On a particularly trying day, he turned
to a bottle of wine for comfort. But drinking only increased his anxiety. With his nerves frayed(慎
躁),Ballestero said he found himself praying to God.
Sailing can be a lonely passion, and it was particularly so for Ballestero, who each nigh listened
to the news on a radio for 30 minutes to keep himself informed of how the virus was spreading across the globe. Gradually, it seemed that he was locked in his own freedom.

Later when his spirits were low, Ballestero said he was cheered by wildlife sightings that felt like omens(预兆). A dozen of dolphins played and chased around his boat, seeming happy and delighted. At this sight, he remembered his family and knew that they were eagerly waiting for him to be back home. He pulled himself up together and felt more strength from these cute and smart animals. Then he re-counted the supplies left carefully and made detailed plans on how to support his following journey with limited food and fuel. After that, with high spirits he continued his journey for his love destination.
When he made it to his native Mar del Pl ta on June F7, it was ten days later than planned. His family greeted him at the port. As soon as he saw them, he waved his hands and said to them loudly," I am back finally and I miss you so much!" His family were very excited that he made it. And he also felt so lucky and glad to see his mom and dad. He then said to his father," I am so sorry that I did not make it on your birthday." His father comforted him, " Never mind. You come back safely. It is the best birthday gift for me! "

The Red Sock
One Saturday morning, Jeremy woke up in a quiet house. Usually Mom was awake making breakfast and cleaning the kitchen, but not today. Jeremy knocked on her bedroom door. “Mom ” he called.
“Don't come in, Jeremy." said Mom. “I have a terible cold.I don’t want to you to get sick. You can have cereal for breakfast and watch cartoons. I’m going to stay in bed.”
Jeremy poured some cereal into a howl and ate the pieces dry. Mom must feel very bad if she was staying in bed all day. How could Jeremy help
First, he wiped up the crumbs of cereal he left on the kitchen counter. He also put away the ceeral box neatly, so the kitchen looked just like it did when he woke up.
But what else could he do Jeremy thought. Saturday was the day that Mom did the laundry.
Jeremy loved to watch the clothes spinning in the machine. That should be fun! He ran to his room to
get his laundry basket.
Jeremy opened the door to the washer and put all of his clothes inside, most of which were white.
He had watched Mom do the laundry lots of times, so he knew here to find the soap powder and
how to pour it into the machine. Finally, he closed the door and pressed the big button which said
"START".
Jeremy looked through the round, glass window. Water was pouring in, and the machine was
starting to spin, making his clothes tumble(翻滚)around. That was easy!
Jeremy watched cartoons until he heard the washing machine beep. That meant the washing was
done. Jeremy opened the door to take out the damp clothes. He took out a few at a time. Everything
seemed clean, and Jeremy felt proud.
Then he pulled out a pink T-shirt. Jeremy paused. He didn't own a pink T-shirt. Where did it
come from He reached into the washer to take out more clothes. There were more pink T-shirts, and
all of his underwear had turned pink! What happened

The last thing Jeremy pulled out of the washer was a bright red sock. It was at that moment that Jeremy realized what had happened -- the red sock was put into the washing machine by mistake and it turned other clothes pink! Afraid and concerned about his mom's illness, he did not tell her mom the truth. After drying them, he folded and put them into the wardrobe. That night, he could not fall asleep and could not help thinking about the pink T-shirt! He felt that it was not right to lie to his mom. So he decided to do the right thing.
The next day, Jeremy wore one of his new pink T-shirts shirts to have breakfast. He was a little nervous and helpless and had no idea how to explain to his mom. When his mom saw his pink T-shirt, she asked where he got it. After Jeremy explained to his mom what had happened in detail, he waited silently for whatever would happen to him.To his surprise, his mom was not angry at all. Instead, she praised Jeremy for his considerate deed and said to Jeremy, "Dear son, you look so good in that pink T-shirt!"

for their 20-year anniversary. The golden ring with diamonds was something she would cherish. bur
not for long.
As soon as Paula finished washing the bathtub, she moved on to the toughest part: the toilet.
Wanting to get it out of the way, she quickly wiped the inside of the toilet with a brush, and flushed
(冲走)the soap. After finishing, something fell off, but she couldn’t think of what it was.
Paula's heart was beating fast as son as she noticed that her left ring finger felt a bit lighter. She
slowly looked down at her ring finger, hoping that her treasured anniversary gift was still on it. She
was horrified to see that it was gone. She didn't notice that she flushed it down the toilet.
She couldn't believe that she just literally let thousands of dollars go down the toilet. Paula had
no idea how she was going to tel her husband about this. Michael worked extra hard for the years to
save money for the ring, so to tell him that it was all wasted was unimaginable for her.
Paula didn't accept that it was gone. She searched the rest of the bathroom and even the house,
hoping that she just dropped it somewhere and forgot about it. She even took the toilet apart and
searched inside the pipes with a flashlight,but in vain. The realization that she wasn't getting it back
was all too much for her.
Paula mentally prepared herself for what could possibly be the toughest conversation with her
husband ever. She softly knocked on the door to their bedroom, waiting for Michael to cal her in. She
saw he was relaxing on the bed reading his favorite book. She knew that there was no going back now.

Visibly sweaty and nervous, Paula said that she had bad news to tell him. Feeling surprised and restless, her husband thought it was something terrible that happened to his wife. After Paula told him everything about the ring, her husband firstly appeared a little disappointed and then comforted Paula,"Dear, although I felt upset, I do feel that it is not that bad to lose such a ring since it is just a gift for our wedding anniversary. It is just a symbol of love between you and me. "
Paula was completely shocked by Michael's reaction to the situation. She had thought her husband would be angry with her. However, her husband's words gave her much comfort, making her eyes filled with tears. Seeing this, Michael hugged her and said, “Don't be so worried. If this troubles you so much, I’d rather that I had not bought it. I want you to know that our love is more precious than the ring. Anyway, we can save money for another ring like that." Hearing this, Paula smiled and nodded.

This story may sound very ordinary, but it is true and interesting. It is about a rickshaw driver who happened to drop me to my destination that was not far from my home. But in that 10-12-min way, I witnessed and learnt from this 63-year-old man how one is clear about his dream.
It so happened that I was waiting for a rickshaw to go to a nearby place for an interview and none of them were ready to come. I started walking when I saw this rickshaw and stopped him. When I asked if he could drop me to my destination, he quickly agreed. 1 gave him the exact location and that was when our conversation started, mostly one-way conversation.
I started by saying "ye rickshaw wale hamesha manna kyu karte hail (why do rickshaw fellows say no every time).
His immediate reaction was in English “Madam, this is what I hate about rickshaw fellows." These guys are not educated and hence they don't value time; neither do they want to help commuters. While he was talking, in English and Hindi, back of my mind I was wondering how this old man who is just a rickshaw driver is taking so fluently in English.
When I was just thinking about it, he again started conversing with me and all that he said really
motivated me.
"I am a BSc graduate and completed my graduation in the year 1975. By profession, I was a
teacher in a government school for many years. During those days, I struggled a lot as I belonged to a very poor family, but that did not stop me from growing. I somehow managed to complete my studies to give my family a better life. I made my kids study and taught them the importance of education which has helped them chose their fields and go their way. My son is an IAS officer and my daughter is a professor in a famous college."

He continued to tell me why he was driving a rickshaw after he retired. He said to me, "Since I came from a poor family and struggled my way up to here, I deeply know the importance of education. It can help change one's life. I choose to to a rickshaw driver to make more money. However, it is not for myself, but for more children in poverty. " Hearing this, I could not help admiring such an old man who is still trying his best to make a difference to others.
Very next minute, my destination came. After I got off the rickshaw, I sincerely thanked the old man for his willingness to take me to my destination. And also I thanked him for his selfless and kind deed. I said to him,"You are really a true role model for me. You not only changed others' life during your teaching position, but after that. " I offered to pay him more money, but he refused. He said,"I hope that you could donate this money to the poor and pass this warmth and kindness to those children."

I could fell the excitement rising in me as I held the beautifully wrapped present in my hands. I fumbled with the string and then, unable to contain my curiosity any longer, I opened it. It was a shiny, brand-new laptop. I had scored straight As for my O-Level examination and this was my reward. I had always envied my friends who were exchanging news about "chat rooms", "instant messaging" and "e-mailing", all of which I knew nothing about. Now I was going to find out.
It started out simply enough. I was searching for some information online when I chanced upon a social networking site. Son I became glued to my new-found electronic friend. I began to spend more and more time on YouTube and became trapped by Facebook and Twitter. I had never imagined that the day would come when I would be addicted to the glowing screen before me. Whenever I was not glued to these social networking sites,I would be going through gossip or fashion websites.
As time passed, I realized that I was hoked on the Internet. During weekends, when I had more time on my hands, I could easily spend a few hours on my laptop. It came to a point where I chose to lock myself in my room, refusing to come out and take part in family discussions. I preferred to stay connected to the people I made friends with on the Internet although I had never met them. Son I was spending the small hours of the morning surfing on the Internet. Sleep was no longer complete and continuous but divided into small pieces. My grades at school also began getting from bad to worse.

It was about this time that my parents started voicing their disapproval. They expressed their concern and worry about my academic performance and personal life. Although I told them that I would spend less time on it, I still surfed the Internet privately. And I even spent most of the time being involved in many meaningless activities, such as talking with virtual friends, gossiping, playing games and being addicted to make-up channels. Then one day, when I was buried in the online world, my parents caught me, threatening me to take it away if I still did so. But I did not listen to them.
Then one day, my father took away my laptop. And he told me that I would never get it back until I realized my problem. At the beginning, I could not understand my father's anger, and even I somehow was angry with him. Losing the laptop had some effects on me to some extent. I could not sleep well and thought about it all day long. However, weeks later, without it, I found that I could do some other meaningful and interesting things-playing with real friends, cycling, playing footballs, watching favorite movies with my family and so on. At the moment, I realized that my life was more wonderful without that laptop.

As the day faded into dusk, following several hours of animals wandering, his concern turned to fear. The place was remote and rough. With o flashlight, only a liter of water and a power bar in his backpack, and less than ten percent battery remaining on his cell pean was unprepared for anything more than the two-hour hike he'd pean climbed to a spot, some 7,000 feet above sea level, where he found at least one bar of signal. "SOS. My phone is going to die. I'm lost." he texted a friend, attaching a photo showing where he as. The picture showed his legs surrounded by an endless landscape of rocks and plants.
All Compean could do then was to wait and hope. The temperature was dropping fast, and the wind was blowing violently. Not wearing to much, the hiker was shaking with cold. He hugged himself into a tight ball, using his backpack to protect his legs from the cold wind. But he wouldn't sleep. After spotting two mountain lions and a bear, he spent the night awake, keeping a big stick and some sharp rocks beside him in case an animal came close.
The rescue teams had spent the previous night unsuccessfully looking for Compean, so they posted the photo to the website, hoping someone might know the location.
Ben, a worker in a tech industry, who has an unusual hobby of exploring where photos are taken,
happened to see the photo. So he immediately pulled up a satellite map on his laptop. Based on the information that Compean's car was parked near Buckhorn Campground, he narrowed his search to the surrounding area.

And he was also curious about how Ben located him in such a short time. Then Ben explained it in detail. After that, Compean expressed his admiration and appreciation again.

The old man turned away sadly as his eyes were filed with tears. " Poor Mr Dev ..." thought Indra sympathetically. Another day went past and there was still no sign of his family. Indra wondered how children could be so careless as to lose a parent like this.
Indra recalled the day the old man was admitted to her ward. He was thin and weak. He could not produce his identity card but he claimed he remembered the number. The hospital tried to contact his family using the phone number he offered but it was in vain. Mr Dev was treated for a lung infection and was now recovering. Son, it would be time for him to be discharged (出院),Where would he go then He did not look strong enough to live independently. Indra threw down the file she was holding as anger rose within her.
"What's the matter "asked Indra's colleague." I"m just upset about old Mr Dev," Indra replied. Poh
nodded with understanding. As a more experienced nurse, she had seen many similar cases and learned to control her feelings.
"Don't worry too much. The hospital has contacted the civil-administration department (民政部]) and offered the information about the missing man. Mr Dev will be placed in an old folks' home if no one comes to pick him up"
Poh said, patting Indra's am comfortingly. Indra sighed. "I know. It’s just that he eagerly expects his family to visit him. He cleans and tidies himself every morning and sits up to wait expectantly. You can see the eagerness in his eyes whenever the door opens. At the end of the day he goes to sleep with tears in his eyes. It makes me cry inside.
Poh shook her head sadly. “He needs a miracle(奇迹),
A few days later, the doctor confirmed that Mr Dev was fit enough to be discharged. Indra was informed that an administrator had been waiting downstairs, ready to take Mr Dev to an old folks' home. With a heavy heart, Indra helped Mr Dev to get ready.

He was still a bit weak, so Indra rolled a wheelchair to bring him downstairs. She could clearly tell from his face that the old man was a little confused and sad. He probably had no idea where he would go and still expected his family. Indra felt angry and helpless, but she had to send him downstairs and let the old folks' home take care of him. Maybe that home was his best choice for the moment. Indra pushed the wheelchair slowly and gently. Then she pushed the button, waiting for the lift.
"Papa!", a shaking voice cried out from a middle-aged woman when the lift door opened. Indra seemed very surprised at such a woman. After confirming that she was really the old man's daughter, she sighed with a relief, feeling very delighted for the old man. Then she asked the woman why she came to pick up his dad so late. The daughter explained in detail why she came so late. And she immediately arrived here when she got the message. Hearing this, Indra finally knew the reason and let the woman accompany her father to leave the hospital. Seeing this warm scene, Indra felt that life really will bring you some miracles at some point of time.

TALK TO МЕ
Mom was having a surgery on her throat. She had lost her voice four years before. Mom loved writing and was a popular newspaper columnist among the online circles.
"We really believe you'll get your voice back. The surgery will work. Right, Mom " I stared into Mom's eyes, eager for a positive answer. Expressionless, Mom lifted her eves from her laptop and pulled out one of the post-its (便利贴) that were stuck to the plastic case of the LCD display. It said “Yes”.I pursed my lips.
Her eyes fell back to her laptop She didn’t smile and she didn’t even look at me while raising the post-it in front of me as if she didn't care at all. But I did. I was desperate to hear her speak again. She meant the world to me.
But Mom was not in the least excited about getting her voice back. Because it was her third surgery and the last two didn't work out. She was hopeless.
" Dad will be here son," I told Mom. She shrugged (鈴肩).
Just then Dr. Smith entered the ward. " Relax, Lisa. There's a good chance that your mom can speak after the surgery, " he comforted me. And I nodded with a forced smile. After two nurses wheeled Mom away to the operating room, I sat outside as the surgery went on. Resting my elbows on my knees, I buried my head in my hands, praying for the surgery to go well.
Mom had developed throat cancer. When she woke up one morning as a mute, I cried my eyes out though I was tired of her continually lecturing me about my improper behavior. Being unable to hear her voice was heart-breaking. Worse still, she no longer smiled at Dad and me and stopped giving us those morning hugs I always looked forward to. I couldn't bear seeing her like this, so helpless, so quiet, All those post-its saying "I love you", "I miss you"... had lost their meanings. Recalling all these, I couldn't help weeping.

Then I felt a hand on my shoulder. Looking up tearfully, I found it was my Dad. “Dad!” I got up and threw myself into his arms. Though I could tell that he was also nervous and worried, he still comforted me, patting on my back gently. Three hours had passed before the surgeon came out. Dad and I sprung up and rushed forward. He told us that the surgery was a success and that my mom would be able to speak again. We were overwhelmed by joy. Before long, Mom was wheeled back to the ward.
Dad and I held Mom’s hands until she woke up. Hours later, my mom came back to herself and obviously she wanted to speak something. But I told her that the doctor warned that she had to rest for another hour before she could clearly speak. So my mom just lay on the bed with my dad and I by her side and tried to prepare her throat for a voice. Suddenly, mom said a word “water”, and Dad and I clearly heard the voice. We were so excited and handed her a cup of water. I said to my mom, “Dear Mom, I have told you that the surgery will be successful and you can speak again!You see, you can speak now.” My mom was also so happy that she also responded us with a weak but clear “Yes!”

She had to rush for her shift at the local clinic.

I was the eldest among the four siblings(兄弟姐妹)and it fell upon my shoulder to ensure that they would become responsible adults. Besides helping mother with the housework, I regularly coached them in their studies. Thankfully, never once had I had to raise my voice or force them to complete their homework. But all of us missed Dad very much. He was a model father and husband. Life was cruelly taken away from him at a very young age of 42.
However, my mother managed to pull through and found a job at the clinic. It was very tough on someone like her who had never worked before in her life. Bu money was scarce and there were five mouths to fed. Dad did not leave much behind. He never suspected he would die so young. We stopped dining out and had our meals mostly at home.

I knew mother wold not agree but I threw caution out of the window and managed to get a part-time job at a fast-food restaurant. I
worked three hours a day and managed to bring home money so that my siblings and I could go out for occasional movies or meals. I was sure that mother suspected something. But she could not quite point the figure to the source of her suspicion.

One day, while I was busy serving the customers, I was shocked to see my mother standing opposite the counter. I was at a loss at that moment, and obviously my mom also felt a bit awkward. She said nothing but ordered some food and drink. I was surprised and had no idea why she did all this. However, I still served her with what she had ordered. Then, she found a table in the corner and began her eating. I dared not to see her since I absolutely did not know what she thought of my job. After eating up all the food, she went out without saying anything. And I straightly went home after finishing my work. On arriving at home, I found my mom and my siblings all sitting at the table.
Mother made me sit down. She was already crying, so were my siblings. I was very anxious and helpless, not knowing how to comfort them.

My mom stopped crying and told me that she did not want me to work at such an early age and insisted that I should live like any other young kid. I felt so moved and still I told her that I just wanted to do something to help support our family. And I also promised her that I would not let this work affect my study.

A few years ago, on a cold winter evening, I was having dinner with some good friends. One of them told us a sad story about something that had happened the day before. Her son's friend was in his mid-twenties and self-employed. He lived on the second floor of a house nearby, Someone who lived on the first floor had been smoking and fell asleep. The house burned down. Although everyone was safe , the house was completely destroyed with everything in it.
All this young man had were the clothes on his back and his pickup truck, He had no family in the area and nowhere to go. My friend was putting him up for a few days until he could decide what to do next.
Those of us siting at the dinner table felt sympathetic for the young man. Everyone started opening their wallets to contribute money. My friend stopped us and told us he would not accept money. All he wanted was a warm coat and some other used clothing. We were all more than happy to fulfil this request and were told that he wore a size 3XL. None of us knew men who wore such an unusual size, so it was going to be a challenge to take care of this quickly.
But it was a typically cold New York winter, and I couldn't imagine him without a coat. So even though I had fifteen people coming to diner on the coming weekend, and I had many things to do for the big party , I decided to look for a coat in a size that was difficult to find.
I got dressed and went to the thrift shop (旧货店)the next morning. I was there when it opened at nine. I went through every coat and jacket but found nothing even close to what I needed. As I headed toward the exit, I considered trying to find something in a department store, but it would be expensive, and I had no time to shop.

Just as 1 was about to leave the shop, the shopkeeper who was tall and strong came out of the storehouse. He asked me what I had been looking for. I briefly told him the whole story and just wanted to leave quickly for another chance in a department store. After that, he told me to wait a minute and went back to the storehouse. Several minutes later, to my surprise, he came back with a used coat which was just of the size I needed. He told me that the coat was originally his and he was totally willing to donate it to the young man.
1 took the coat, thanked the kind shopkeeper and left the thrift shop. I got on my car and quickly drove it to my friend’s. Though it was extremely cold outside, this shopkeeper’s generous behavior warmed my heart. And this warmth was passed on. The warm coat finally was given to the young man, who was very grateful. With the help of us, the young man gradually got back on his feet. A coat may be not something precious.However, the warm it brings to people may give them power to pull through any difficulty.
