Jaden is a six-year-old boy．He experienced the unlucky things of life twice．First he lost his dad when he was four and his mom died unexpectedly in her sleep last month．Jaden's heart was broken．His parents'death hit him a lot．
But things always go towards a good side．A few weeks later，Jaden told his aunt that he was tired of seeing everyone sad all the time．He'd like to see more smiles around him．He hoped that the number of the smiles could reach 100．
Then he asked his aunt to buy him some little toys and take him to the center of the city．"I'm trying to make people smile，"said Jaden．At first，he was not sure if the people passing by would like to receive his toys．In fact，he was always successful and got close to his dream step by step，because no one could refuse such a little boy's giving and expecting．
"I'm keeping a count of 100 smiles，"said Jaden．When asked if he could make it，he answered，"I think I can．"

Could the students from less developed areas in central and western China get the same educational chances as those in big cities in the east？Could the children in poor rural （农村） areas develop as well as those in rich cities？Maybe the answers were"No"in the past．But now，China is trying to change the situation．
In order to help rural students grow taller and stronger，China's Nutrition （营养） Improvement Program started in 2011．According to the program，a lot more money was spent improving students'meals．More than 36 million students from 134 ， 000primary and junior high schools in poor rural areas have benefitedfrom the program．They are provided with healthy food like eggs and milk from Monday to Friday at school．And the result of a survey shows that the students in those areas are much taller and stronger than before．
It is true that there were differences between less developed areas and developed areas in education before．Recently，The Guideline for Popularizing High School Education （2017-2020）has come out．According to the guideline，above 90% students from all over the country will go to high schools by 2020．What's more，the schools in central and western areas will get more support to improve their education．
Students from rural and poor areas also get more chances to receive higher education．A special college program makes it possible for more students from those areas to go to key （重点的） colleges and universities．The number will be increased by 10% in 2017．
With the guideline and the programs，we can expect a fairer and more balanced （均衡的） education in the future．

All through the winter，the Esquimaux（爱斯基摩人） live in houses made of snow．These small houses are very clean and white when they are new．They can soon turn dirty，but pieces of fresh snow make them new again．
Sometimes the Esquimaux build their small houses with the wood that they find along the seaside．However，they aren't always so lucky．When they can't get wood，they use the snow．It is so cold that the snow becomes very hard，so the small houses are strong enough in the whole winter．The windows of these houses are not made of glass，but of ice．
When the warm weather comes，the houses become water slowly．The Esquimaux get wet as they lie in bed，and often catch a cold．They are glad to get away from the small snow houses and live in their tens during the summer．
