    “Leave him alone,” I shouted as I walked out of the orphanage(孤兒院) gate and saw several of the Spring Park School bullies(欺負弱者的人) pushing the deaf kid around. I did not know the boy at all  36  I knew that we were about the same age, because of his size. He lived in the old white house across the street from the orphanage where I  37 . I had seen him on his front covered entrance several times doing absolutely nothing, except just sitting there making funny hand movements.

    In the summer time we didn’t get much to eat  38  Sunday supper, except watermelon and then we had to eat it behind the dining room so we would not make a mess on the  39  inside. The only time that I would see him was through the high chain-link fence that surrounded the  40  when we ate our watermelon outside.

    The deaf kid started making all kinds of hand  41 , really fast. “You are a stupid idiot,” said the bigger of the two bullies  42  he pushed the boy down on the ground. The other bully ran around behind the boy and kicked him as hard as he could in the back. The deaf boy’s body started 43  all over and he curled up in a ball trying to protect and hide his face. He looked like he was trying to cry, or something but he just couldn’t make any  44 .

    I ran as fast as I could back through the orphanage gate and into the thick bushes. I uncovered my home-made bow which I had  45  out of bamboo and string. I grabbed four arrows that were also made of bamboo. Then I ran back out the gate with an arrow lifted in the  46  and I just stood there quietly, breathing really hard just  47  either one of them to kick or touch the boy again.

    Here below are two pieces taken from a blog．

    ▲ Growing up as one of three girls I’ve always been keen on women’s issues．And now with three daughters to raise，I have the responsibility of ensuring that they grow up without any preconceived(預想的) ideas of their capabilities ＆ potential based on their gender．Earlier this year I read an article that indicated that women surpassed men in the workforce for the first time in history．That is a milestone! And while we still don’t have equality in leadership positions or pay (especially if you’re a mom)，we have made significant progress over the past couple of decades．All this prompted me to do some digging around to see what else I could learn．Here are some fun facts from the census bureau for you：

●29％ of women aged 25 or older had obtained a bachelors degree in 2008 vs．18％ in 1987．

●55％ of all college students were women in the Fall of 2008．

●60％ of women 20 years or older participate in the workforce today vs．34％ in 1950．

●14％ of the armed forces were women in 2008．compared to 2％ in 1950．

    ▲We’re all looking to stretch the value of our dollar as much as possible．Every day as you juggle the needs of your family，remember to eat right，take your vitamins and keep up with laundry and bills－you probably also look for budget friendly，family appropriate activities．A day trip to a national park is a great way to explore all the wonders of nature，without breaking the bank．Once or twice a month，my wife and I will prepare for a leisurely hike in one of our favorite parks close to home．The night before，she makes some homemade granola and I make sure our reusable water bottles are full and on ice．Next time you’re looking for an inexpensive adventure that your family isn’t soon to forget，take a hike!
