It was Mother’s Day, but the young mother was a little unhappy, because she was 800 miles away from her parents. In the morning she phoned her mother to wish her a happy Mother’s Day, and her mother told her about the beautiful lilacs（丁香）in the garden.
Later that day, when she told her husband about the lilacs, he said, I know where we can find all that you want. Get the children and come on.” So they went, driving down the country roads.
There on a small hill, they saw a lot of beautiful purple lilacs. The young woman ran quickly to enjoy the flowers. Carefully, she picked a few here and a few there. On their way home there was a smile on her face.
When they were passing a nursing home (养老院), the young woman saw an old granny sitting in a chair. She had no children with her. They stopped the car and the young woman walked to the old woman, put the flowers in her hands, and smiled at her. The old granny thanked her again and again. She smiled happily, too
When the young mother came back to her car, her children asked her, “Who is that old granny? Why did you give our flowers to her?”
“I don’t know her,” their mother said, “But it’s Mother’s Day, and she has no children. I have all of you, and I still have my mother. Just think how much those flowers meant to her.”

Do you have a pet in your family? Yes? It’s easy for you to be ill. Dogs, cats, fish, chicken and many other animals sometimes are dangerous to people. For many healthy people, a flu(流感) is nothing. But for other people, like children and the old, it may be serious. Now, a flu called H7N9 arrives in China. This new and dangerous flu is from birds. First, it goes from bird to bird, but now, it goes from birds to people. Because it is new, we don’t know how to fight it. Some people in Beijing, Shanghai and other cities are ill because of this bird flu. Some of them contact chicken before they get ill. That makes Chinese people afraid and some people don’t eat chicken now. What can we do? First, don’t be afraid. Doing exercise every day is a good way to make you healthy. Then, it’s also good for you to wash your hands under running water after you play with your pets. Children under 5 years old can’t play with baby chickens, baby ducks or baby birds. This is very important. When you don’t feel well, remember to tell your parents and go to the hospital quickly.
