But the third friend didn't reply,

Just when disappointed,

Receiving text messages is the third,

Just a few words,

Come out, I'll wait for you at the intersection,

Please cherish those who don't play with their mouth,

Because it's better to be true than to be perfect,

Whether life, love or friendship,

All need a person who can do, not just say, cherish the people around you who do what they say for you, not the people who draw cakes for you!

the kids were over the moon. 孩子興奮之極

聽讀英語學英語

One time when my friends first immigrated to US, I posted on a local FaceBook group asking for help. Among many, many messages offering help, one woman - her name was Debbie - told me she has a little bit of bread and milk but I would have to come and get it. So, I drove to her home. I walk in and her entire spacious living room is filled with food - boxes and boxes of meats, bread, eggs, fruits, cakes, even flowers. After I picked my jaw off the floor, she told me to help myself and get as much food as I need. She helped me fill the trunk of my car with food. It turned out she worked with local grocery stores where instead of throwing away food that was perfectly fine but didn’t sell right away, they would donate it to people in need. It’s usually the most expensive and organic food, too!After that and for several more months, Debbie kept giving us food. Sometimes when I come across another family in need, I would get food for them from her too. She would even drive it to their homes when they didn’t have a car. One day I asked her: “Debbie, why did you say that you have ‘a little bit of milk’ when you have a huge amount of food?” She told me that she only wants to help people who are truly in so much need, they would come over for just milk and bread.For my friends’ first Christmas, Debbie went out and got them boxes and boxes of presents, for each family member. I got them a tree and decorations. They were super surprised, as they are Muslims and don’t celebrate Christmas. But the kids were over the moon.Eventually, we became friends. Aside from helping people, Debbie also fosters kids from abusive homes. She loves them and takes care of them better than I take care of my own kids, despite their emotional and behavioral issues. And despite the state occasionally taking the kids back to original parents until they get discarded again, thereby ripping her heart up in a thousand pieces.

learn和study

learn 和study均為動詞，是我們書面和口語中常用的單詞。下面就其使用注意點進行分析。

learn的意思是“學習，學，學會”，側重于學習的結果，指通過他人教授和自己練習或者是從經驗當中獲得知識和技巧。表示“向……學習”時只能用learn from，不能用study。但是做“學習”講的時候，這兩個詞可以互換使用。比如：

How did you learn to bake cakes? 你是怎么學會烤蛋糕的？How many English words have you learned？你學了多少英語單詞？We are learning English.我們在學習英語。這句話的learn也可以換成study。

What can we learn from the artist? 我們能從這位藝術家身上學到什么？What can the young learn from older people?年輕人能從老年人那里學到什么？

study可以指“學習，攻讀，研究”，指學習一門或多門課程，側重于學習過程及較高深的或者是周密的研究學習的對象，往往是科學藝術或者是它需要深入探討的學科。比如：

Kids would rather play than study.孩子們寧愿玩而不愿學習。She's got into Peking University to study law.她被錄取到北京大學學習法律。It's important to study hard, but don't overdo it.刻苦學習很重要，但不要超過極限。These proposals deserve careful study.這些建議值得認真研究。
