“Make-A-Wish” is one of the world’s most well-known charities(慈善机构). It makes wishes come true for children who have serious illnesses. It gives them hope and joy and helps them forget about their health problems and have fun.
It all started in 1980 in Phoenix, Arizona. Christopher was a 7-year-old boy who was very sick. He always dreamed of becoming a police officer. Tommy Austin and Ron Cox, two police officers, made his wish come true. They gave Christopher a tour of the city in a police helicopter(直升飞机) and made a real uniform for him.

Smartphone, poor sight
Look around and you’ll see people busy on their smartphones. Smartphones do make our lives easier. But have you ever thought about what they mean to our eyes?
According to a study, half of British people own smartphones and they spend an average of two hours a day using them. There has been a 35% increase in the number of people in the UK who suffer from shortsightedness since smartphones were introduced there in 1997.
Staring at smartphones for long time gives you dry eyes. When looking at something in the distance, your eyes automatically blink(自动眨眼) a certain number of times. However, when you look at things closer to your eyes, the blinking slows down. This reduces the amount of tears and causes discomfort in your eyes. Another bad habit is using smartphones in dark rooms before going to sleep. If you look at a bright screen while your pupils(瞳孔) become larger, too much light enters your eyes. This can do harm to the eyes and cause a disease called glaucoma(青光眼).
While you’re probably not going to stop using your smartphone, there are a few things you can do to protect your eyes. Hold your phone at least 30 centimeters away from your eyes when using it. Take a break every hour and try the following: look at something at least five meters away from you and then focus on the tips of your nose. Repeat this several times. It should reduce the discomfort in your eyes.

When you want to buy or rent a house, you expect not only the good quality of the house but also the nice neighbours who live near you. Almost everyone agrees that good neighbours can help each other. In my opinion, a good neighbour should be someone who respects your life, be ready to help you and care about the environment in the neighbourhood.
First of all, it is very important for your neighbour to respect your life. Just imagines, if your neighbour is curious about you, especially your personal life and tries to know more about it by any way. How will you feel? What’s more, he or she may also talk with others about your life. Do you want to live with him or her any more? The answer must be negative. You may move as soon as you can.
Next, what you should consider is that a good neighbour is always willing to give you a hand when you are in trouble. For example, if you are not at home and someone suspect tries to open your door, your neighbour who sees it should call 110. It will help you to protect your property.
Finally, a good neighbour should care about the environment. He or she should throw all the rubbish
