I believe listening is powerful medicine.

It was Sunday. I had the last patient(病人) to see and I got into her room. She was an old woman, sitting on the bed, trying to 1 her socks. I said, "How are you feeling? The nurse says your 2 is visiting you today. I'm sure you'll be happy to see him."

She 3 me with a serious voice, "Sit down, doctor. This is my story, not yours."

I was surprised. She began to tell me that her only son lived not far from her, 4 she had not seen him for five years. She believed 5 health problems were worse because of missing her son. After heating her story and helping her put on her socks, I asked if there was anything I could do for her. She said "No." and smiled. All she wanted me to do was to 6

Each story is 7. Some are clear. Others are not. But all those things do not really 8. What matters to the storyteller is that the story is heard.

Listening to someone's story is easy but it is 9 the key to healing (复原). I always tell myself the 10 of stopping, sitting down and truly listening. I believe in the power of listening.

I work at THON. THON is a charity(慈善组织).  It helps to improve the lives of children with cancer(癌症).

I knew about this charity when my teacher showed me a video. The video was about the THON Weekend—a 46-hour, no-sitting, no-sleeping dance marathon(马拉松).

I'm now receiving (接受) weekly training to learn how to keep children safe (安全的) during the THON Weekend. There are many interesting activities. THON 5k is one of them. It's a large race with over 4,000 runners. People come and run across a school. Marathons are not easy for those runners with cancer. So we make signs to show them the right way. We also set up many stations to prepare enough water and food for those runners.

At the age of 3, Yuan Xin was hit by a car while crossing the road with his mother. He stayed in hospital for five months. To save his life, doctors cut off his right arm.

Soon, Yuan reached school age. Before sending him to school, his mother taught him how to write with his left hand. From primary school to middle school, Yuan always got good grades. Although other students sometimes laughed at him, Yuan never gave up. When he felt upset, his mother was always there to cheer him up.

In high school, Yuan got friendship and support (支持) from his classmates and teachers. Together, they prepared for gaokao. Yuan's dream was to become a doctor. He wanted to save people like his grandmother. She died on the first day of his exam. However, having one arm meant he could never be a doctor. Later, Yuan chose to study computer science at university.

But Yuan never touched a computer before. He had to work hard to keep up with others. Now he still gets better grades than others and he's got many prizes. "I am slower, but I can work harder," he always says.

When an astronaut gets out of a spaceship or a space station in space, we call it a spacewalk.

Alexei Leonov from Russia became the first to go on a spacewalk on March 18, 1965. Zhai Zhigang is the first Chinese spacewalker, and he did a spacewalk on September 27, 2008. On November 7, 2021, he went on a spacewalk again with another Chinese woman astronaut Wang Yaping. They stayed outside Tiangong space station for 6.5 hours.

Why do astronauts go on spacewalks? That's because they need to work outside the spaceship or the space station, for example, doing science experiments. Sometimes they have to repair things. When there is something wrong with the outside of the spaceship or the space station, astronauts need to go on spacewalks to repair it.

There are some ways for astronauts to train for spacewalks. One is by going for a swim. Floating (漂浮) in space is a lot like floating in water.

It's more difficult than moving your body on land. Another way that astronauts train for spacewalks is by using virtual reality (VR). They wear a helmet (头盔) with a video screen inside. The screen can show a video of what they will see during the spacewalk. At the same time, they wear special gloves so that they can feel like they have been in the spacewalk.

A video of a girl standing on a snowboard (滑雪板) on her own and sliding (滑行) down a hill in Zhangjiakou is popular on the Internet these days.
