On Friday, Shannon Grimm noticed that a 5-year-old girl, Priscilla, in her kindergarten class was really sad and depressed at school, because she was teased by some students, who said that her short hair made her look like a boy.

"What is a better way to show them that you can look any way and still be true to yourself than to cut my own hair?" Grimm said to herself. After thinking deeply, she decided to cheer the student up by showing support, so she chopped（剪）her waist-length brown hair into the same pixie cut（精灵短发）as Priscilla's.

Walking into a grocery store or other public places with her new haircut did make Grimm feel awkward. However, she said the temporary discomfort was worth it because she was able to help Priscilla feel better about her appearance. "I don't want my students to ever feel like their confidence is down because of the way people look at them and say things to them. " Grimm said.

At a school meeting last week, the little girl Priscilla presented Grimm with a medal for being her hero during a difficult time. More important to Grimm, her creative way works out.

"Who's beautiful?" Grimm asked Priscilla later. "Me. " the girl responded with a smile.

Although Grimm said she missed her long hair, she said the experience had allowed her to better understand Priscilla's feelings. "Sometimes you just have to experience it. You have to teach them and show them that you're there for them. "

Her hair will grow back, but Grimm said she hopes to give a more lasting lesson to her students. " It doesn't matter what haircut you have," she said. "You're beautiful no matter what. "

Why do people travel? Well, we usually travel because we want to see other countries and visit places that are famous, interesting or beautiful. We travel to meet new friends, to try new kinds of food, to experience life in other parts of the world or simply to get away from cold weather. However, there are other reasons for adventure travel. Many of today's adventure travelers are looking for an unusual experience and adventure travel is becoming more and more popular. Here is a quick look at two popular activities: hiking and rafting.

Instead of spending your vacation on a bus, in a hotel or sitting on the beach, you may want to try hiking. Hiking is a great way to travel. You will get close to nature and take exercise at the same time. Hiking is easy to do and doesn't have to be very expensive. You can hike close to home or other places. The basic equipment you need for hiking is simple: good shoes, clothes and a backpack. You can hike in the mountains, in a forest or along a river. You can also go for a hiking in the city.

Another exciting adventure is rafting. A raft is a small boat that you can use to paddle(划桨) down rivers and streams. Rafting is a good way to experience nature. If you want a normal rafting trip, choose a quiet stream or river that is wide and has few fallen trees or rocks. As with hiking, you should always think about your safety and wear good clothes. You also need to learn the basic skills, such as how to handle the raft, how to paddle and how to get in and out of the raft. You should not raft unless you know how to swim, and you should always wear a life jacket.

Can exercise during childhood protect you against memory loss many years later? Exercise early in life seems to have lifelong benefits for the brain, in rats at least.

"This is an animal study, but it shows that physical activity at a young age is very important — not just for physical development, but for the whole lifelong track of cognitive (认知的) development during ageing," says Martin of the University of Toronto, Canada. "In humans, itmay put off the appearance of

Alzheimer's（阿兹海默症）symptoms, possibly to the point of preventing them. "

Martin's team divided 80 young male rats into two equal groups, and placed running wheels in the cages of one group for a period of six weeks. Around four months later — when the rats had reached middle age — the team taught all the rats to connect an electric shock with being in a specific box. When placed in the box, they froze with fear.

Two weeks later, the team tested the rats in three situations: exactly the same box in the same room, the same box with the room arranged differently, and a completely different box in a different room.

The rats without access to a running wheel when they were young now froze the same percentage of times in each of these situations, suggesting they couldn't remember which one was dangerous. But those that had been able to run in their youth froze 40 to 50 percent less in both changed box settings.

"The results suggest the amount of physical activity when we're young, at least for rats, has influence on brain and cognitive health — in the form of better memories — when we're older," says Arthur Kramer of Northeastern University in Boston, who has found that, in humans, exercise improves the growth of new brain cells.

Are you thinking about traveling alone? You must have a million questions: Where should you go?

Will there be someone to talk to? And is it all right to travel alone?

In fact, traveling alone is not as scary(吓人的)as it seems. Here are some good tips.

Choose a place where you feel comfortable and safe

Truth be told, traveling alone for the first time is more about the experience than the destination. It could be somewhere close to home or somewhere you've already been with friends.

Make a plan

Always make a plan. That way you'll avoid worrying too much over where you're staying, what to see and how you're getting from A to B.

Book hotels ahead of time

Besides, when you book your hotel, ask if they will send a driver to pick you up.

Talk to people

If you're going to a touristy place like Thailand, there are lots of other people who are traveling alone. They might also ask you to join them for dinner or a beer. That happens a lot.

Let someone know where you are

Your family and friends love you and probably worry about you every day, so text them and let them know what you are up to throughout your trip. And in case something does happen, they'll know where you are.

A. This can make you less nervous when you're traveling alone for the first time.

B. Don't draw attention to yourself.

C. So make sure to choose a place that you feel comfortable with.

D. How do you stay safe?

E. That will make you and them feel safer.

F. The first thing you need to do is believe in yourself.

G. Most likely, they'll be easy to talk to and they'll want to communicate.

Leaves were still falling. Every day10she played the violin in the corner of the building，I went downstairs to watch her performance. I was the only listener. The autumn seemed no longer lonely and life became11. Though we didn't know each other, I thought we were already good friends. I believe she also loved me.

Autumn was nearly over. One day, when I was listening carefully, the sound suddenly12. To my surprise, the girl came over to me.

"You must like violin. " she said.

"Yes. And you play very well. Why did you stop?" I asked.

Suddenly, a13expression appeared on her face and I could feel something unusual. "I came here to see my grandmother, but now I must leave. I once played very badly. It was your listening every day that encouraged me. " she said.

"14it was your playing that gave me a meaningful autumn," I answered, "Let's be friends. "

The girl smiled, and so did I.

I never heard her play again in my life. I no longer went downstairs to listen like before. Only thick leaves were left behind. But I will always remember the fine15of the girl. She is like a dream—so short, so bright, like a shooting star giving off so much light that it makes the autumn beautiful.
