I believe listening is a powerful medicine.
It was Sunday .I had the last to see and I got into her room .She was an old woman , sitting on the bed , trying to her socks .Usually I said something like this : “How are you feeling ? The nurse says your son is visiting you today.I believe you are seeing him.”
She me with a serious voice , “Sit down , doctor .This is my story , not yours .”
I was surprised and .I sat down and helped her with the socks .She began to tell me that her only son lived not far from her , she had not seen him for five years .She believed her health problems were worse because of her son .After hearing her story and helping her put on her socks , I asked if there was I could do for her .She her head and smiled .All she wanted me to do was to .
Each story is .Some are clear; others are not.Some are true; others are not , yet all those things do not really .What matters to the storyteller is that the story is heard .
Listening to someone’s story costs nothing but it is the key to healing (康复).I often what the woman taught me , and I myself of the importance of stopping , sitting down and truly listening .I the power of listening .

My dear friends, do you like cycling? Cycling is full fun. When I go out, I always like it. But cycling in the UK is from cycling in China.
First, you have to ride on the side of the street. It’s not as you do in China. It was the biggest difference when I first rode here.
One day when I was riding on my bike I heard someoneto me. “Wrong side! Wrong side!” I didn’t care about it at first, but soon I was when I saw a car rushing(冲向) by me. Luckily, I was not hurt.
Second, UK bikes have two ,a white one and a red one. The white one is in the and the red one at the back. When you’re riding in the dark, they can keep you. But in China, you can’t see lights on bikes in the dark.
There’s another difference between UK bikes and Chinese bikes. What? Remember. You can your bike anywhere you like in China, but you can’t do that in the UK.A. with B. of C. on
