I had never noticed her. She was not the kind of girl who could draw attention. She was not tall and just looked . In class, she liked sitting at the back, reading or taking notes. One day I asked her to read aloud the text. When I heard her standard American pronunciation, I looked at her with new eyes. And I her name—Kelly. Later on, the National College Speech Competition would be held. One student in our school was allowed to attend. I thought it over and filled in name.
Kelly practiced hard for the competition. However, I was a little worried because she was always too . Could she do well in the competition?
On the night of the competition, I sat in the front row of the hall very early. I told her to take it easy. Her face turned red and she said nothing. It seemed she was really . I felt upset, but I just patted her on the shoulder and let her go to draw lots(抽签). As a result, she drew No. 9 while No. 8 was a boy who was very good at giving speeches.
Sure enough, No. 8 was very . The whole audience made a warm applause (鼓掌)almost every 30 seconds and was still talking about his speech with until Kelly appeared on the stage. I sat there with no to look at her. It was her first time to go up the stage, so I couldn’t be angry with her for any small mistakes. But at that moment, I found I was so afraid of her .
The strong spotlight and large hall made her so small that nobody seemed to notice she had been on the stage. I felt hopeless.
But the moment that me came. I clearly heard a voice, a very loud voice, “Now, please focus on(聚焦于)me.”
Three times in all, louder and louder.
The whole audience fell silent.
I could believe that loud voice came from the girl, who was usually soft-voiced and didn’t attention at all. She gave a perfect speech.
I think I will never forget this touching lesson that my student taught me — never underestimate(低估)the power of the silent people.

What do people usually put in their living rooms? Perhaps you will think of something such as a TV, a coffee table or a sofa. But French designers Mathieu Lehanneur and Anthony van den Bossche didn’t think that was enough. They wanted to add something new in people’s living rooms. So they created a do-it-yourself ecosystem(生态系统) named “Local River”. The system lets its owner grow fish and plants inside tanks (缸) in their living rooms.
In the DIY fish and gardening ecosystem, the plants on top of the tank feed on the waste of the fish below. It makes the water clean so the fish can go on living. In this way, the fish and plants in the“Local River”can keep the balanced environment, and only need a little help from the owner. The system is also called “fridge-aquarium(冰箱水族馆) ”by some people because owners can use the fish and plants as food. That is to say, owners are able to grow fish and plants within the "Local River" before eating them. Almost any plant can grow on top of the tanks and most freshwater fish are able to live in the tanks below.
The“Local River”ecosystem from Paris comes in small and large models. It is a relaxing thing to have in your home.

If we protect these beautiful animals in China, more people may wish to visit China to see them. They could be an important t 9. attraction. It would be good if more people came to visit our beautiful country, e 10. some quieter places in the country.
