On a particularly tough day last December，Flores came up with the idea of having her twins
send letters to Santa by balloon.She told them that Santa would grab the balloons while he flew
through the air on his sled.
The twins were excited.Flores helped them compose their letters，writing down all the things
they dreamed Santa might bring them，and then put the notes into festive red balloons.
On a chilly，windy morning，she dressed the girls in identical pink sweatshirts，put
beautiful bows in their hair，and then took them outside to release their wishes to the universe.
Several days later，when Alvin Bamburg,66，was deep in the woods in Grand Cane，
Louisiana，something caught his eyes.Hanging in a fallen tree，it looked like litter.But Bamburg
felt he must pick it up.
“God just told me，”he says.
As Bamburg approached，he saw that the object was a broken balloon.Attached was a piece
of paper decorated with shiny star stickers.It was a child’s Christmas wish list.
“Dear Santa，”the handwritten note read.“ My name is Luna.I am four years old，and I
live in Liberal，Kansas.This year I have been nice.I would like candy，Spider-Man ball，and
Frozen doll.With love，Luna.”
Bamburg’s heart hammered in his chest.Ever since he was a child，he had dreamed of
this.“Years ago，”he says，“classes at school released balloons with notes.I’ve always
wanted to find one.”
He believed this was his childhood wish coming true.And he knew he was going to make
Luna’s wish come true，too.
He just wasn’t sure how.
It is over 650 miles from Grand Cane，Louisiana to Liberal Kansas.But Bamburg’s wife，
Lee Ann Bamburg，was not frightened by the distance.An enthusiastic Facebook user，she had
seen other people find all sorts of connections through the site and thought it might help her
husband find Luna.

So Alvin posted a photo of the balloon and the Christmas list on his Facebook
page.___________________________________________________________________________

We went to Darjelling during the summer holidays and booked a cottage(农舍) for our
stay.Our cook Gopi came with us because we could not do without home-cooked meals.
Usually all the shopping was done by our home help—Bharat，who had accompanied(陪伴)
us to our holiday destination.However，one early evening，my mother decided to do all the
vegetable shopping by herself.She believed that Bharat did not wait to check the really fresh items
and instead，bought randomly in a hurry.As a result，the vegetables he brought back were not
fresh.
After getting ready，she took her favorite purse with quite an amount of money，thinking she
could go to other shops too after finishing at the vegetable market.My mother asked Bharat to get a
rickshaw for her and on reaching the market，she asked the rickshaw wallah(人力车车夫) to wait
for her.She took a helper and did her shopping happily，choosing some of the freshest green
vegetables available there.At last，her shopping was done.She returned to the rickshaw and sat on
it while the helper put all the things my mother had bought onto the rickshaw.
On reaching home，Bharat took all the packets of vegetables inside and my mother quickly
paid the rickshaw wallah and got off ，forgetting to collect her purse from the seat of the
rickshaw.The rickshaw wallah left soon after saying goodbye to my mother.All of us greeted my
mother and asked her about her evening of shopping with much delight.
Then we began to help my mother prepare our dinner.My father came to help chop the meat；
I helped wash the vegetables；we were talking and laughing.When dinner was about to be
announced，it was late in the evening，almost 9 pm.

Jenny stared at the store window longingly.There was nothing in this world that she wanted
more than a Happy Hannah doll and all that currently separated her from the hottest doll of the
holiday season was a thin piece of glass and $29.95 plus tax.Unfortunately，Jenny didn’t even
have the 95 cents，so she let out a deep sigh and continued walking home.
Suddenly，a pink rectangle(矩形) in the snow caught her eye.Jenny walked over and realized
it was a leather wallet.She removed it from the snow，and opened the wallet to find a thick pile of
folded green bills and two plastic cards.One was a credit card and the other an ID.
Jenny stared at the old woman in her ID photo.The woman had a beautiful smile that reminded
Jenny of her grandma.Jenny sighed and then she put the wallet into her purse.She turned around
and walked in the direction from which she came.
Jenny’s heart beat quickly as she entered the store.She had long dreamed about this
moment，but something didn’t feel right about it.As she approached a neat pile of Happy Hannah
dolls，she pushed away her feelings.She grasped one Happy Hannah dolly.
As Jenny approached the register，the Happy Hannah Show theme song began playing.It was
her mobile phone.It was her grandma.In one hand she held the Happy Hannah doll and in the other
she held the phone on which her grandma was calling.Jenny’s heart was filled with love and
appreciation as she thought of her sweet old grandma.She put the doll down and picked up the
phone call.
“Hi Grandma? I’m going to be a little bit late tonight.I’ve got to drop something
off...Yeah，it was good...OK...Alright...I love you too.”Jenny left the store and walked through
the melting snow all the way to the other side of the town.She thought of her grandma as she rang
the bell at 301 West Street.

Kilimandjaro was a popular place for soccer fans who went to watch Middlesbrough F．
C.play over the weekend to eat after the game.Waka Waka Chicken was one of the restaurant’s
signature dishes.
Everything seemed normal for the owner of the restaurant，Apollo，who always values the
virtue of honesty，and his waiters.Customers were flocking in，and service was running smoothly
that day.Apollo，to be honest，wasn’t even there.He was having a good time with his family，
completely unaware of what was going on in his restaurant.He had no idea that something
unexpected was about to happen and that he’d be getting a rather awkward phone call from the
waiter.
At about 11∶00 am，three guys walked in，clearly interested in sitting down and eating
some food.There’s a good chance that they came from out of town and were fans of the away
team.At the very least，the staff could detect a difference in their accents.It wasn’t long before
they were attended to by a waiter who took their orders.After that，everything appeared to be
going well...The three friends were glad they had chosen Kilimandjaro.Waka Waka Chicken with
cheese was enjoyed by them.From their expression，the staff could tell these three guys were very
satisfied with the food.
About one hour later，the three friends were prepared to pay for their meals.The total cost of
the food was ￡35.They reached for their credit cards and handed them over as the waiter
approached their table.However，they were shocked when the waiter informed them that they
could only pay in cash.None of them carried cash with them.At this time，the waiter was asked to
go to another table to take orders.Realizing the last train back home was to depart in an hour，the
three friends had other ideas...

On returning ， the waiter was surprised the three guys had gone without
paying._________________________________________________________________________

Tim Robinson，a former junior officer of the British Army，was on holiday in Bridport，
Dorset，a town in England.While enjoying a walk down the beach，Tim slipped on a piece of
seaweed lying in the sand and fell，breaking his leg.
Unfortunately，Tim did not bring his cell phone with him when he left for his walk.No one
was in site，but as Tim lay helpless he remembered his military training and tried to think about
what was around to help him.After struggling around on the beach，the pain became too much to
handle.He stopped and thought about what to do.
With no phone and no one around，and with his leg hurting greatly，Tim had a decision to
make.He could either continue this way in pain and hope that someone happened to see him，or he
could try something else.It didn’t matter that his leg had made him partially immobile，Tim still
had the ability to crawl(爬行)，and so he did.
The choice was easy，but the crawl was tough.Tim told the Daily Mail，“After I crawled
about a mile and a quarter away from the car park，I started flashing my torch in SOS and spinning
it over my head to create a Buzz-Saw signal which is a way of attracting helicopters in the armed
forces.”
No one seemed to be around.At least，no one could read Tim’s signals for help.Once
again，he had to either stay where he was and wait for help or get moving.In his mind he had no
choice.There was no response to begin with，so he crawled for five minutes and covered about 50meters before making the same signal three times.Most people couldn’t imagine crawling for any
distance with a broken leg，but Tim wasn’t about to give up.

Tim finally got a response from the distance.
