21、Is it funny to pull a person's chair away just as he or she is about to sit down? Some people would say yes. Anyone who has ever had it happened to him or her would definitely disagree.
Isabella "Izzy" Sementilli was in fifth grade when a classmate pulled her chair out from under her. As a result of the incident, Isabella suffered neck and back injuries. She also began experiencing sensitivity to light and noise, and severe headaches. The once-active tap dancer was banned from participating in all physical activities.
Unfortunately, her health did not improve with time. By eighth grade, her headaches were so severe that she was no longer able to attend school. She receives homeschooling which is cancelled on days when her headaches are unbearable.
Isabella has managed to remain positive despite her struggles. "I choose not to sit around doing nothing and feeling sorry for myself," she says. She finds strength from her faith as well as from the support of her family. She says, "I've missed out on everything." Isabella has not been able to engage in any of the activities she used to enjoy, but she has discovered a passion for baking. In 2014, she began baking cookies she calls Iznettes.
The cookies were so good that she began selling them. Isabella donates all of the profits from the sale of the cookies to anti-bullying and brain injury charities.
Isabella wants people to understand what life is like for someone with a brain injury “It's an invisible injury," she says. "No one sees the pain you are in. It's hard for people to understand. Everyone says that I look fine.
In 2017, she was chosen as a youth honoree by the Brain Injury Association of New York State. She has even had the opportunity to speak with elected officials about the challenges faced by those with brain injuries.
Isabella also hopes to educate people on the potentially disastrous impact of bullying. By sharing her story, she hopes to make a difference in the lives of others. It is her hope that no one else will suffer in the way that she has. "If I could help just one person, that would be amazing," she says.

22、Traveling to a new country isn't as simple as just buying a ticket and boarding a plane. In fact, it can be easy for an awkward situation to occur. Different customs can often cause misunderstandings and even trouble. So an article in the Daily Mai highlighted taboos in certain countries. Let’s take a look.
France When visiting France ,you’d better not be caught cutting your lettuce(生菜)with a knife and fork. It’s rude to the chief cook and suggests that the salad hasn’t been prepared correctly. The correct way to eat lettuce in France is to fold it with your fork to make it fit in your mouth. | Italy 02 It’s actually best to be a little less friendly than usual when you visit Italy. It’s considered strange to make small talk with strangers, as the locals are reserved. Too much familiarity from a stranger can be seen as threatening, so keep greetings short. |
In Mexico , bringing an expensive gift to someone’s home is a no-no ,as ye could be seen as something for you .Something simple like flowers and chocolates would be accepted. But you can’t take along marigolds (金盏花)or red flowers , because in Mexican culture, they symbolize death and can be associated with the use of magic. Mexico
| You have to be careful with gifts of flowers in Germany too. Fox example, carnation (康乃馨) are used for a religious ceremony for burying a dead person .So if you want to give your host flowers, ask them what their favorite flowers, And if your bring your host eight flowers . he or she won't be happy, for an even numbers considered unlucky. Germany 04

23、You may have experienced the frustration of receiving a parking fine or finding your car towed away (拖走)after leaving it parked for a couple of minutes.
But now a high tech car sticker could help motorists avoid such a situation by allowing a traffic warden(管理员)to get in touch with them.Car owners can buy the sticker and place it inside their car’s windscreen,having set it up with vital information,such as their phone number.The slim design will i nclude a sensor that will send a text message warning a driver about a coming fine when touched by a traffic warden.The message will ask them to move their car immediately.The driver could then type a reply for the warden us ing their smartphone,which will appear on the sticker’s screen.They may choose to write something along the lines of“back in two minutes”in a bid to avoid a fine.Frankfurt-based IT consultant,Daniel Kalliontzis,came up with the idea and is raising funds on Indiegogo to put his 54 sticker into production.
The smart sticker system will rely on the good will of traffic wardens and critically,a German law.The law states:“An officer has to choose the most e fficient and inexpensive way for the car owner to remove the vehicle.”It could be cheaper for the authorities to contact the driver than to tow his car.
At the time of writing,Mr Kalliontzis has raised just over 3,000 of his 50,000 goal on Indiegogo.If he manages to raise the money,the stickers will be shipped in June 2015.But it appears that car owners using the smart system could get some unnecessary warning messages,because anyone could touch the smart sticker.
