Many years ago, an earthquake happened suddenly. A lot of buildings
collapsed(倒塌)。 It killed over 100,000 people in a few minutes. Shortly
after the earthquake, a father rushed to the school where his son studied
only to find the building had fallen down. He remembered his promise to
his son:“No matter what happens, I’ll always be there for you!”
The tearful father began to dig to look for his son. Some parents
felt hopeless and tried to pull him off. But he asked,“Are you going
to help me now?”And then he kept on digging. The fireman came.
They tried to pull off and said,“Danger! Leave here!” But the
father who loved his son deeply,asked,“Are you going to help me now?”
The policeman came up and said,“It’s over.Leave here!We’ll do it.”
Still he asked again and again,“Are you going to help me now?”
He went on alone because he needed to know,“Is my boy alive or
is he dead?” He dug for 8 hours…12 hours…24hours…36hours…then, in the 38th hours, he pulled back a large stone And heard his son’s voice. He cried,“Tom!”He heard back,“Dad? It’s me, Dad! I told other kids you’d save me. I believe you would keep your promise.”“Get out, boy!”“No dad! Let the other kids out first. Because I know you’ll get me out! No matter what happens, I know you’ll always be there for me!”

In most parts of the world, many students help their school make less pollution. They join in “environment clubs”. In an environment club, people work together to make our environment clean.
Here are things students often do:
Turn off the water! Do you know that some toilets can waste twenty to
forty tons of water an hour? In a year, that would fill a small water! In environment clubs, students mend those broken toilets.
No-car day. On a no-car day, nobody comes to school in a car-not the students and not the teachers. Cars give pollution to our air, so remember: walk, jump, bike or run.
Use your legs! It’s lots of fun!
No-garbage(垃圾) lunches. How much do you throw away after lunch?
Environment clubs ask students to bring their lunches in bags that can be used
again. Every week they will choose the classes that make the least garbage
and report them to the whole school.
