Rebecca, a British schoolgirl is eight years old, and she is one of the youngest people who have arrived on the tops of Snowdon, Scafell Pike and Ben Nevis, the three highest mountains in Britain.
Climbing isn't new to this schoolgirl. She took her first trip up a mountain in her dad's backpack when she was just six months old!
“One of the best parts about this climb was Scafell Pike,” said Rebecca. “I've never walked in the dark before, and it was fun seeing all the sheep eyes as they ran around in the dark.” Rebecca brought along food, water, a small medical box, a map, a camera to take photos. Along the way, she and her dad had fun by making up mountain songs.
“All my friends like to stay inside playing computer games, but I like being outdoors best,” says Rebecca. She also enjoys swimming and skating.
The young climber doesn't plan to stay on the ground for long. She wants to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, the tallest mountain in Africa. “And I would like to climb Mount Qomolangma one day, too,” she said.

Chris is not a traditional explorer(探险者)—he usually works in an office for a large organization.Yet his job can sometimes be just as exciting and dangerous as being an explorer.

At the moment, there are over 27,000 trained medical staff taking part in MSF projects and tasks.The organization received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1999.All kinds of doctors can volunteer for MSF.They need to be prepared to go almost anywhere in the world and, of course, they should expect difficult conditions.Doctors with experience in tropical(热带的) diseases are especially useful because most of MSF’s work is in Africa.When MSF accepts a doctor for a task, he has to go for at least six months.When doctors have completed a few tasks, they might be sent on an emergency task following a disaster, such as an earthquake.
But why would a doctor leave a comfortable life and a good salary to join MSF? According to Chris, the experience you gain is a great help in your career.Besides, just like the explorers of the past, you need to keep an open mind and learn to mix well with the people you meet.Most importantly, at the end of each task, you have made a real difference to people’s lives.

Find books in subway
Imagine this. Somebody hides free books in the subway for you to find and read. Sound exciting? Well, British actress Emma Watson, 26, is doing it! She is known for acting as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter movies.
Watson hid 100 copies of a book called Mom & Me & Mom (2013) in London’s subway. The book is an autobiography (自传) from US writer Maya Angelou. It tells about the writer’s relationship with her mother. These books were put in different places in the subway. People saw Watson doing the same thing in the New York Subway this month.
With each book, there is a handwritten note by Watson. She asked people to “take special care” of the books if they find them. She also wrote that “when you are finished, please leave it on the subway again for someone else to find”.
Watson’s work is part of a movement called Books on the Underground. It calls on people to leave their books on the subway so other people can enjoy them too.
Hollie Belton, a woman in London, started the movement in 2012. She loves reading on the subway. She noticed that a lot of people shared her habit so she got the idea. Over the years, Belton has left over 2,000 books of her own. The movement has attracted more and more people.
Watson is a book lover as well. That’s why she tried it. Earlier this year, Watson set up her own online book club Our Shared Shelf. She reads a book every month with others. Mom & Me & Mom is the club’s book for November.

A. is acting in a new Harry Potter movie.
B. has written a book about herself.

D. has been a volunteer in London’s subway.
2.What did Watson’s note on each book ask people to do?
A. Give money to the charity. B. Take care of the books and share them.
C. Buy books from her online book club. D. Give those-books to homeless children.
