other.Then one day,his younger brother left him.So he was very sad and didn't know what to do
A girl lost her hands because of a fire.Though her elder sister wanted to take care of her,she decided to be completely independent(独立的) .At school,she always studied hard.Once she wrote the following in her diary.“I am lucky.Though I lost my hands,I still have legs.Though my wings (翅膀)
are broken,my heart can still fly.”
One day,the boy and the girl were both invited(被邀请)to a television show.The host asked them to

kind of flu can't help us against all kinds of flu.That's why we need to get the vaccine every year
