Alex Palmer says he'll never forget his 13th birthday, not because of a gift or a party, but fire. "It made me realize how valuable life is," said Alex, a seventh grader at Monroe Demonstration School in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

On April 18, Alex and many other kids from his school were riding home on a school bus when they suddenly saw smoke coming from the bus' engine. "It was jaw-dropping," he told reporters.

By the time Alex and some other kids made it out the bus' back door, the bus was already on fire. And some of their schoolmates were still inside. So he and some of the other older kids took action.

"One little kid was slowing everyone down with his big backpack, " eighth grader Destiny Fain said, "so I got it off and threw it to the side and helped to make sure all the little kids weren't fighting or pushing. "

As that was going on, sixth grader Marketez Doyle-Smith reportedly helped another classmate who had trouble in breathing because of the smoke. "We saw our friend lying on the ground," he said, "so we took our shirts off and waved them to get him some air to breathe."

Marketez also reportedly stopped a younger kid trying to get back on the bus to search for something he'd left behind. "We're all a family," he told reporters. "So I went back to help the little kid."

Finally everyone made it off safely, thanks to Alex, Destiny, Marketez and several other kids. By later that day, they were already being called heroes. "I really don't see it as being a hero," Alex said, according to The World. "I see it as the right thing to do—helping others before you help yourself."

Some of the world's most talented musicians have played concerts at Lincoln Center. On September 10, the center hosted a unique class of star musicians: kids and teens. The young players are part of the World Peace Orchestra, or WPO. The group held its first Music for Peace concert in New York City, with 134 students from more than 60 countries taking part. Musicians were chosen from all over the world.

The World Peace Orchestra began in 2013. The nonprofit group brings kids together using the common language of music. To be considered for the orchestra, students first had to be recommended by their teachers and then audition online for a group of judges. Once chosen, professional musicians and teachers then worked with the players to improve their skills.

Some of the young musicians played classical instruments, such as violins and flutes. Others played instruments unique to their home country. For example, Amold Mugo, 16, from Kenya, played an instrument called the djembe. The drum is originally from West Africa. Mugo said he was shocked when he learned he was chosen for the orchestra. "I can't express how I felt. I was rolling on the floor. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity," he said.

Adomas Hendrixson, 13, from Lithuania, played piano for the WPO. Before the New York City performance, Hendrixson talked about what he hoped to take away from the event. "Fun and joy-- people smiling and clapping," he said." This is one of the only times in your life this could happen and I'm very excited."

Mugo says his favorite part of the WPO is making new friends from around the world. "I hope when I go home, I just take a little bit of every friend that I made here-- Brazil, Portugal, Queens," Mugo said, "I hope that I take part of their culture home with me so I understand them more."

A wife's level of education positively influences both her own and her husband's chances of having a long life, according to a new Swedish study.

In the study, researchers from the Swedish Institute for Social Research in Stockholm found that a woman's level of education had a stronger connection to the likelihood of her husband dying over education. What's more, they discovered that a husband's social class, based on his occupation, had a greater influence on his wife's longevity(长寿) than her own class.

"Women traditionally take more responsibility for the home than men do, and, as a result, women's levels of education might be more important for determining lifestyles－for example, in terms of food choices－than those of men," say Srs. Robert Erikson and Jenny Torssander of the Swedish Institute for Social Research in Stockholm.

The results show that a husband's level of education does not influence his longevity, but that men with partners who had quit studying after school were 25 per cent more likely to die early than men living with women holding university degrees. In turn, those married to women with university degrees were 13 percent more likely to die early than those whose wives had post-graduate qualifications.

According to the researchers, a woman with a good education may not marry a man who drinks and smokes too much or who drives carelessly, and men with such habits may not prefer highly educated woman. Drs. Erikson and Torssander also suggest that better-educated women may be more aware of what healthy eating and good health care consist of.

The findings suggest that education has a huge impact on how long and how well people live. It also reflects social factors, since educated individuals usually have better jobs, which allow them to afford healthier diets and lifestyles, as well as better health care.

Mountain gorillas are strong, with long muscular arms and a big chest. They have thick black hair that protects them from the cold in high mountain areas.  Although they are very strong, mountain gorillas are shy animals. They normally don't attack humans.

   During the 40 to 50 years that a female lives she gives birth to two to six babies. The first baby is born when she is about eight or ten years old. She then has further babies every three to four years. In most cases single gorillas are born, but she sometimes gives birth to twins.    They need about 30 kilograms of vegetation every day to survive.
