When I was 10, my father lost his work. My mother was dispirited. I decided to make her happy by buying her a special Mother's Day gift.

One day after school, I rode my bike to the Agins. It was a popular shop because of its high-end fashions and style. I introduced myself to Sylvia Agins, the shopkeeper, and told her I was looking for a Mother's Day present.

I was a child but she treated me like an important person. She asked "What does your mother want?" I told her I wasn't sure. After walking around the store for a few minutes, she came with a box. She opened it and there was a yellow Italian purse made of soft leather.

"What about this purse? I think your mother will like it. How much money do you have?" she asked. "Twelve dollars," I said. "You're lucky, "she told me. "It's enough. You can have a dollar left for a card.“

She gift-wrapped the purse and gave it to me. I rode my bike with the package under my arm. It wasn't until many years later, when I learned that the purse was worth 300 dollars. I always felt bad that I never had a chance to thank her. How wonderful Sylvia Agins was to me. Letting me have the purse for just a few dollars was unbelievable enough. I'll never forget her and her kindness.

"I sometimes get up at three or four in the morning and I surf the net."

"I often check my e-mail forty times a day."

"I often spend more than three hours during one time on the net."

"I spend more time in chat rooms than with my 'real-life' friends."

We all know teeth are important to us, and we have National Teeth-Loving Day on September 20 th every year. Do you know the life cycle of teeth in your mouth? Children under 6 years old have 20 baby teeth. From 6 to 13, people lose their baby teeth one by one. Now permanent teeth（恒牙）begin to grow. Between the ages of 17 and 25, some people grow wisdom teeth（智齒）. Of course, wisdom teeth don't make you any smarter. They look like a symbol（象征）of being grown-ups（成年人）.

Do you know how to keep our teeth strong and healthy? Let's look at the following tips.

What we can do:

Brush your teeth in the morning and before bedtime.

Brush for at least two or three minutes every time.

Brush up and down on every tooth.

Use a dental floss（牙線）for your teeth to make them cleaner.

Get a new toothbrush every three months.

What we can't do:

Don't eat too much sweet food, like candy and ice cream, or don't drink too much soda.

Don't eat very hard food. That can hurt your teeth.

Don't eat snacks before bedtime.

It's clear that healthy teeth help us eat food to let us grow. They help us speak clearly. And yes, they help us look good.
