Rob Frenette had problems with bullies（欺辱） at school for eleven years．He was often lonely and scared．When he was fifteen，however，he decided to do something about his problems．He walked into a newspaper office and told them about the bullying．His story went into the newspaper and soon all the TV stations in Canada wanted to talk to him about his experiences．They also wanted to hear his ideas to stop bullying．
After that，Rob continued his studies at school，but in his free time he helped other people with bullying problems．With a friend Katie Neu，he made a website called www．bullyingcanada．ca．Visitors to the website can find advice，stories and poems about bullying，in both English and French．When people are upset，they can talk on the phone or online to Rob and his team．Every weekend Rob has to answer e﹣mails to the website．He also speaks to children，teachers and members of government around the country about bullying．
Rob's most important message is："When bullies are unkind to you，it isn't your fault．There's nothing wrong with you，so you should try to keep trusting yourself．And remember that people care about your problems．You just have to find those people．"

Fifteen years ago，I drove a taxi for a living．One day I went to pick up a passenger at 2：40 A．M．When I arrived there，I walked to the door and knocked．"Just a minute，"answered a weak，elderly voice．
After a while，the door opened．A small woman stood before me．She was more than eighty years old．By her side was a big bag．
When we get into the taxi，she gave me an address，and then asked．"Could you drive through downtown？"
"It's not the shortest way．"I answered quickly．
"Oh，I'm in no hurry，"she said．"I'm on my way to a hospice （临终关怀医院）．I don't have any family left．The doctor says I don't have very long．"
I quietly reached over and shut off the meter （计程表）
For the next two hours，we drove through the city．She showed me the building where she had once worked，the neighborhood where she had lived，and the place where she had gone dancing as a girl．
Sometimes she'd ask me to slow down in front of a special building and would sit staring into the darkness，saying nothing．
We drove in silence to the address she had given me
"How much do I pay you？"she asked．
"Nothing．"I said．
"You have to make a living，"she answered．
"Oh，there are other passengers．"I answered．
Almost without thinking，I gave her a hug （拥抱）．She held on me and said．"You gave an old woman a moment of joy．"

You can't look at sunflowers and feel sad．Their big bright faces almost seem to be smiling at you on a summer day as they slowly turn toward the sun．Not only do the flowers make people happy，they also provide food for bees，birds and squirrels and many other small animals that love to eat the seeds（种子）．
Sunflower seeds aren't only delicious to animals．People love them，too．You can find bags of them in the stores．They tell you what kind of seeds they are and how they should be planted．
There are hundreds of different kinds of sunflowers．The biggest ones are Mammoth Russians．They grow to over 10 feet tall and produce big round heads with bright yellow petals （花瓣）that are over a foot across．They grow on strong thick stems （茎）with big heart﹣shaped leaves．The ripe seed heads sometimes get so heavy that they hang down．Other kinds of sunflowers，called dwarf，produce small stems and smaller flowers in colors such as light yellow and deep bright orange or red．
Sunflower is also a place in America．People there love sunflowers so much，so they named their place "Sunflower"．There are sunflowers everywhere．
