When Vivienne Harr was 8 years old, she saw a photo she would never forget. It was a photo of two young boys carrying large, heavy rocks on their backs. These children were the same age as Vivienne. But they did not have the same freedom and opportunities (自由和机会) that she has.
In some parts of the world, children have to work hard long days and they can’t go to school. Vivienne wanted to change this. “I want all kids to be able to go to school and play,” said Vivienne, now 10. “I want them to be happy.”
To help raise money for children like the two boys in the photo, Vivienne started a lemonade stand (柠檬汽水摊位) near her home in Marin County, California. She promised to work every day for a year, rain or shine. “Sometimes, it was hard for me, when the weather was bad or I wasn’t feeling well,” said Vivienne. “But I knew that some children were having a harder time than I was.”
Vivienne’s goal (目标) was to raise $100,000 in 365 days. On Day 175, she reached her goal. But that didn’t stop Vivienne from working. With the help of her family, she started Make a Stand. The company (公司) now puts Vivienne’s lemonade into bottles (瓶子) and sells it in 130 stores around the USA. A small part of sales goes to help achieve Vivienne’s dream — to make the world a better place for all children.

Have you ever tried to write a poem (诗歌)? It’s easier than you might think. Just pick up a pen and begin practicing. Here are the steps to write a poem.
Choose your topic. (11)__________ Some people can start writing poems without really deciding what to write about; when their pen or pencil hits the paper the words just flow (畅流). Most people, on the other hand, need a topic and as a beginner, this is the best way to start. It’s easier to write a good poem about something you know well or you have experienced.
Freewrite for five minutes about your topic. Then go back and read it. Are any words or phrases (短语) especially good? (12)__________ For example, if you are describing something (i.e. a bird), write down descriptive words about it (i.e. looks, colors), and the type of story you would like to tell about (i.e. the bird fell out of a tree). If you are writing about an event in your life, write down your feelings and thoughts (想法) of that event.
Write your poem. Remember, a poem doesn’t have to rhyme (押韵). (13)__________ But it should show your feelings of the topic. And it should sound nice to you.
Have a friend read your poem aloud to you. (14)__________ If not, go back and rewrite the parts you don’t like.
(15)__________ Read it to others. Say it aloud to yourself. Put it somewhere if you want.
