Our reporter asked people what they were doing on July 20th, 1969 when man first walked on the moon. Here is what they said:

Kate Jones

I remember that day very well. I was fifteen years old. It was a hot and humid day, and I was with my family in the mountains. We were having a picnic.

John Bates

I was eighteen years old. I was watching TV at home when the astronaut walked on the moon. I remember he could jump really high because people aren’t so heavy on the moon.

Paul Robinson

I was twelve. I remember the day, but I don’t remember what I was doing. I remember I wanted to go to the moon, too.

Linda Brown

I was working that day. I was twenty then. I didn’t see the man land on the moon because I was busy. I read about it in the newspaper the next day.

Mark Green

I was only seven years old then. My parents talked about it, and I learned about it later in school, but I don’t remember the day. I was too young to remember. Maybe I was having fun in the playground with my friends when it happened.

Stephen used to work in a company. Unluckily, he got serious heart disease (疾病). He couldn’t work for a long time. Thinking he could still do something for others, he decided to be a volunteer at a Children’s Hospital. Stephen loved children very much. With his love, he did his job well.

There was a girl who could not walk because of a disease. She couldn’t do anything and she was very sad. What was worse, the doctors said that they could do little for her. Stephen decided to try to help her. He started visiting her, bringing paints, brushes and paper. Stephen put the brush in his mouth and began to draw. He didn’t use his hands at all. Only his head would move. He always told her that she could do anything she wanted.

At last she began to draw with her mouth. She and Stephen became friends. One day, to Stephen’s great surprise, she walked to see him on her own feet! She gave him a picture she had drawn. At the top, it said, “Thank you for helping me walk. It’s all because of your love.”

Love can sometimes be more powerful (強大的) than doctors and medicines, Love makes our world more beautiful and colorful.
