Lei Haiwei,a3-year一old fast food courier(送急件的人)from Hunan province won the championship in a televised Chinese poetry knowledge competition, winning fans over with his true love for poems.

    "My interest in poems began as early as was 6 years old, "Lei said after winning the competition.

    Lei Haiwei was born in a village of Dongkou county, Shaoyang city. He inherited(继承)his father Lei Changgen's love of poems. The elder Lei put poetry on the kitchen wall for his son to read throughout childhood.

    "My father hoped I would grow up to be a man who keeps the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas in mind, "the courier said.

    In the father's small house, there is four-story bookshelf, the top of which is filled with poetry books. Lei Haiwei showed great interest in Chinese culture when he was a child. Every time his father told him the stories behind each poem, he was totally attracted. He enjoyed reading poems.

    In 2001, the younger Lei graduated from a technical secondary school and found a job in Shanghai. Lei began to read books related to poems at bookstores or libraries in his spare time, since he didn't have enough money to buy many. The young man also developed a habit of reciting poems he liked, writing down them after returning home.

    Though Lei came to Hangzhou city in 2008 and works as a fast food courier, his love for poems hasn't' faded(减退). On his busiest work days, the courier has to deliver more than50 orders a day, earning up to 9, 000 yuan a month. Even so, he seized any available moment to recite poems.

    As for his future plans, the courier said he will stick to reading and reciting poems.

Lost in the mountain

    Teenager Jake Deham was skiing(滑雪)with his family in the USA, when he fell over and lost one of his skis. His family didn't know that he had problem. They kept on skiing. When they got to the foot of the mountain there was no sign of Jake.

    Jake couldn't find his ski anywhere. In the end, he decided to take off his other ski and walk down the mountain. But he couldn't work out the right way to go.

    It was getting dark and there was a long way from any place of safety. He knew that he might die that night in the cold temperatures. But Jake kept calm(镇定的). At home, Jake watched a lot of programmes about living in difficult situations. He remembered the advice from these programmes and knew that he should build a hole in the snow. He made a hole and pointed it up the hill so the wind couldn't blow into it. Outside his hole, the temperature fell to a dangerous -15℃ that night, but inside it Jake was safe from the cold.

    But he had to get down the mountain. The TV programmes always said, "If you are lost, you should find someone else's' tracks(足迹)through the snow and follow them." "I wanted to live my life," remembers Jake. "So I got up and I found some ski tracks and followed those. "He walked and walked and finally he saw lights. Nine hours after he lost his ski, he found a team of workers who came to save him. He was safe!

    His mom was very happy when she heard the news. Amazingly, Jake didn't even have to go to hospital. He got through the terrible experience without any injuries.

    So, the next time someone says that watching TV is a waste of time, think of Jake. Some- times TV can save your life!

Ted's Dream to Fly

     Ted Brown's dream as a child was an unusual one: he wanted to fly. What was more unusual was the way in which he made his dream come true.

    After high school, he wanted to join the U.S. Air Force but he failed because of his poor eyesight. However, his dream remained.

    At the age of 33, Ted was a truck driver in Los Angeles. One day, while sitting outside in his garden, he watched planes fly overhead and an idea came to him: to use balloons to fly.

    A few weeks later, Ted bought 42 huge balloons. He tied them to chair and then he sat down in the chair with some beer, sandwiches and a gun. His plan was to fly to 10 meters above his garden, enjoy a few hours in the air, and then shoot some balloons with his gun to get back down. But things did not go as he planned.

    Once his friends cut the ropes under Ted's chair, the 42 balloons flew into the sky at an astonishing speed until about 4000 meters above the ground with Ted and his chair. He didn't shoot any of the balloons because he was afraid he might break the balance of his "plane". Ted stayed in the sky with his beer and sandwiches for 14 hours, cold and frightened.

    Planes heading towards Los Angeles' busy international airport reported the strange sight. And Ted's balloons caused great danger to them. At last, Ted gathered his courage to shoot a few balloons and slowly landed on the ground, where many policemen were waiting for him.

    Ted made his dream come true, but it cost him: he was fined $1,500 for breaking the law about air safety.

    When asked by a reporter why he had done it, Ted answered, "A man can't just sit around and do nothing, he should have his dream and go for it.

The Photo Shoot

    Jeremy looked across the hot grassy land South Africa was a long way from his home-town in America.

    "Ready?" Dad asked.

    "Ready." Jeremy answered. They climbed into the old truck. Jeremy hardly ever spent time with his father, a famous wildlife photographer. So far, he wasn't sure whether he liked following his dad around. The job seemed hard and boring.

    As the truck moved along the rough road, there was a big crash. The door had fallen off!

    "Now we can see better, "Dad laughed. Their guide Makalu threw the door into the back of the truck.

    They stopped near watering hole. Makalu said he was friends with the elephants that sometimes came here. Maybe they'd see some.

    Before long, Jeremy saw a small group of elephants walk toward the water. Dad jumped out of the truck and focused his camera on the largest elephant.

    Jeremy noticed baby elephant walking between two adults. It was small, by elephant standards. Jeremy watched as they neared the water. The larger elephants walked into the water, showering themselves happily. They drew water into their trunks and shot it into the air. It was an elephant party. Then the baby elephant rushed in and water went up to its eyes. The water was too deep for it. The baby elephant was in trouble. It tried to climb out of the water, but the bank was too steep(陡峭的). Other elephants tried pushing the baby up, without success. The mother elephant shouted.

    Jeremy took the broken door from the back of the truck. Makalu saw what Jeremy was planning and ran to help. Together they pulled the door down to the water. Makalu comforted the mother elephant, gently explaining that they were going to help her baby.

    The mother knew Makalu and trusted him. Jeremy moved the door onto the bank. Its mother pushed from behind. The baby stepped onto the door and began to walk. Three more steps, and it was safe. The other elephants gathered around the baby, touching it with their trunks.

    "Boy, Jeremy, "Dad said, "That was the most exciting photo I've ever taken! I'm glad you came along."
