ATen-year-old Cody Jackson, a 2013 Build-A-Bear Workshop Huggable Hero, helps support the soldiers.November 11 is a day to honor people who have served in the army. That is what Cody Jackson, 10, from Alpharetta, Georgia, does all the year round. Cody visits airports to greet soldiers and has sent nearly 5,000 pounds of care packages to the soldiers. He has also written books to teach kids to love their country, and sells the books on his website, , to pay for his package supplies.For all his work, Cody was selected as a 2013 Build-A-Bear Workshop Huggable Hero. The 10 Huggable Heroes chosen each received $10,000.“When I was four years old, I was at the airport and it was taking so long to get through the airport. I asked my mom and dad why it was taking us so long and they told me about 9/11 and what the soldiers did that day. They explained the soldiers were providing extra (额外的) protection to help keep us safe. That is when I started to thank the soldiers,” Cody said. “Sending them care packages makes me feel good. I hope the packages make the soldiers feel at home. I hope they show the soldiers that they are not forgotten.”When asked how it felt to be chosen as a hero, Cody smiled, “It was really exciting and it felt really good that I won that money so I could send more packages to the soldiers and get more things.”Cody also hopes more kids can send care packages to the soldiers and thank them for risking their lives. “If they want to help me or if they need some information, they can go to my website,” he added.21.

However, the U.S. has also seen the birth of thousands of strange and even crazy inventions. One example of a strange invention is the dog hoser.Cleaning and brushing a dog at home can be difficult. Many dog owners don’t have the tools or knowledge needed to properly cut an animal’s fur (软毛). For these reasons, some dog owners take their animals to groomers (宠物美容师) for haircuts. After groomers cu t a dog’s fur, they often use a vacuum cleaner (真空吸尘器) to remove the cut fur from the pet’s coat. This is where the real trouble starts. Many dogs are afraid of the strange machine and its very loud noise.To solve the problem, one creative inventor designed a vacuum cleaner dogs might like. The dog hoser is a vacuum cleaner that looks just like a dog.Dog-shaped, with a vacuum cleaner hidden in its stomach, the dog hoser looks like a furry friend. Its sound is low, and the hose looks like the dog’s tail. I t may look like a new friend, but what do you think happens when the groomer pulls out the dog hoser’s tail and starts running it across the dog’s body?After trying one in his shop, one dog groomer said, “My friend’s expensive dog moved back nervously whe n I used it.” A month later, his friend reported that her dog was still afraid of meeting other dogs.25.

Although they usually arrive on time, they can sometimes arrive an hour or two late, so don’t book (预订) any close connections.* Use these times as a guide, always check present times at as they change from time to time.* Lake Shore Limited: New York / Boston — Chicago daily.

But some experts say they are not much better than cheaper brands.For example, Jim Wilcox works for Consumer Reports. He tested all kinds of headphones. He says that $80 Koss Pro headphones provide basically the same quality (质量) and comfort as Beats. So why do people pay twice or even 10 times as much for the hottest brands?Experts say it’s because fashionable, expensive brands send a message. Brands say “I belong” or “I can afford it.”Some people think that expensive brand names are worth the price. They say that some designer clothes really are top quality and that they last longer than cheaper brands. Some teenagers choose to wear popular brands because these brands make them feel good about themselves.Alexandra Allam, 17, likes to buy brand-name products. “I’d rather spend the extra money to get something I know I’ll be satisfied with,” she says. Her friend Emmy Swan agrees, saying “As long as you can afford it, it seems reasonable to buy what you wa nt.” But not all teenagers agree. “Spending hundreds of dollars for designer sunglasses is stupid and unreasonable,” says Daniel Steinbrecher, 16. “It’s fake (假的) happiness.”People who are against wearing expensive brand names say that many designer brand s aren’t any better. “It’s wasteful to buy things just because they are popular,” says Edmund Williams, 15. “You’ll feel better if you buy things because you like them. If you have extra money to spend, it would be better to give it to people in need.”31. The example of Jim’s report wants to tell us _____.A. popular brands make people comfortableB. Koss Pro headphones are better than BeatsC. the hottest brands are of the highest qualityD. lesser-known brands may offer the same quality as name brands32.
