【小題10】 I couldn’t take it any longer, so I went out of the house quietly and 【小題11】 him on his journey. As I leaned into spy on him. I saw the most 【小題12】 sight. Several large deer were in front of him. Billy walked right up to them. And I saw a tiny young deer lying on the ground 【小題13】 suffering from dehydrateion (脫水) and heat exhaustion, lifting its head with 【小題14】 effort to drink up the water in my beautiful boy’s 【小題15】 .
When the water was 【小題16】 ,Billy jumped up to run back to the house. I followed him back to a tap that we had 【小題17】 .Billy opened it all the way up and a small trickle(細流) began to creep out. When he stood up and began to 【小題18】 ,I was there in front of him. His little eyes were just filled with tears.
“I’m not 【小題19】 ,”was all he said.
As the tears that rolled down his face began to hit the ground,they were suddenly 【小題20】 by other drops…more drops…and more.
All I can say is that the rain that came that day saved our farm, just like one little boy saved deer.

In fact, children their exercise level little by little to better those in their circle; children who with more active students were more to increase their physical activity levels, those who befriended more sedentary(久坐不動的) children became active. The children were mirroring, following or adjusting to be to their friends before they knew it.
The encouraging suggest a potentially effective way to change children’s behavior. relying only on organized exercise programs to get moving, perhaps introducing sedentary kids to more active ones — might help more kids the couch.
It’s believed that this is a possible novel approach to obesity . The social environment does carry more power than we have given it for, so we should make use of that intentionally to influence kids.
that children are increasingly connected to one another, through face-to-face interactions or virtual ones, their networks can clearly have a deep effect many aspects of their behavior-help kids in the long run by turning them into healthier adults.
