Other runners were flying past, but Aleman stopped to offer help. And in an act of true spirit of sports, Aleman 4 to leave LaGrange behind. "At that moment, helping him mattered more than the race," Aleman said. Placing a hand at LaGrange's back, Aleman 5 with LaGrange for the rest of the race.
Aleman's mother was not6 when she knew her son's show of kindness. "He's a really kind person and he's always7 to help others," she said.

Why do you seldom see windows in supermarkets? It's no accident that supermarkets don't have windows.
One of them is that it's a try to keep people inside longer. "The owners want to create a separate environment within their stores, where the outside world cannot be noticed," explains Andrei Vasilescu, a shopping expert. "Your attention won't be taken away by the rain or the sunshine. You may even forget the fact that someone is waiting for you outside. " It really helps create an "immersive (沉浸式的)" shopping experience, for better or worse.
Keeping daylight out of supermarkets can also help store products. Nobody wants to buy anything not fresh. Too much sunshine can even make some products look not as new as before. What's more, having windows in their stores would take up the space to place products. " So the walls can hold the heavier objects on the shelves." says Margine Biswas, a building expert.
