Alexis Rocha is a 13-year-old boy from California, US. He weighs 147 pounds (67 kg). But six months ago, he weighed more than 202 pounds (91 kg). How did he lose all that weight in only half a year?
“One day, I was surprised to find that I weighed about 200 pounds,” Rocha says. “I thought I had to do something.”
Rocha is from a boxing (拳击) family—his father and two older brothers are professional boxers. So he decided to start boxing. He began with simple exercises, like sit-ups and push-ups (俯卧撑). Then Rocha started jogging(慢跑). “No kid likes running,” he says. “I don’t want to do it, either, but I have no choice but to keep on.”
Months later, Rocha joined a boxing club in his city. He is always the first kid at the club to begin exercising, and the last to leave with sweat (汗水) on his face. Every day he boxes for about three hours.
“Rocha works very hard,” says his coach, Hector Lopez. “It’s surprising to see him lose the pounds so quickly. I’ve never seen anything like this in my 20 years of coaching.”
Rocha is very happy with his weight now. There is a family photo in his room from 18 months ago. “Each time I look at the photo, I laugh at myself. I was so big back then,” Rocha says. “I look 100 times thinner and 1,000 times stronger now.”

At 6:30 in early morning, Chen Liang drives his new yellow school bus through villages, taking children to his kindergartens (幼儿园).
Chen and his wife Pang Qiuxiang ran two kindergartens in Shanqian Village and Lanxi Village in Qingdao. Pang works as the head of two kindergartens, and Chen takes many responsibilities (责任), from driving to fixing desks and chairs and buying food. Everything seems common in the kindergartens. But one thing makes the kindergartens unique and well-known to the locals. They are free.
In 2006, when the couple took over the kinder-garten from Chen’s mother, it was not free. At that time, Pang took on the main tasks because Chen was busy operating his hotel on the seaside.
But a small pitiful (令人同情的) action of one child touched Pang deeply. “The parents could choose to pay if they would like their children to have dessert. Some parents could not afford to pay the extra fees so their children couldn’t enjoy dessert. Once I saw a child pick up an empty biscuit package which was left by another child, and eat the crumbs (食品屑) in it. I was astonished by the scene,” Pang said. Later, after a serious discussion, the couple made a decision to begin a tuition-free kindergarten.
So they began the tuition-free kindergarten on October 1, 2010.
