Dan Austin is a writer and filmmaker. He is “saving” the world, giving away one bike at a time. In 2006, Austin and his brother started an organization called 88Bikes. It's non-profit group that delivers bikes to kids in need around the world for free. In less than four years, the group has given away nearly 800 bikes in seven different countries.

What difference can one bike make? A big one, says Austin. Many of the children who have received bikes from88 Bikes live in faraway areas and in orphanages（孤兒院） Having bike gives the kids a safe and quick way to get to school. It also means freedom for a young person, and the happiness that bike can bring is just more important than anything else, Austin explains. ‘This may also be favorable to their study because being happy they are likely to learn more.” Austin adds.

Austin and his brother thought of the idea for 88Bikes in an outing. They once went to Cambodia by bike. After the ride, they decided to give away their bikes to an orphanage in the city of Phnom Penh. “But then we realized there were 88 kids in the orphanage,” Austin says. “We wanted to help the other 86 kids, too.” So, they set up the group as well as a website for donations. Four days later, there was enough money to buy more than enough bikes.

Along with the bikes, all of the children receive hats, bike locks and shoes. They also receive photos of the donors（捐贈人）. “We want them to know that there is somebody across the ocean that always cares about them,” Austin says. A world map is put on the back of the photo which shows where the donors live. The donors also receive pictures of the kids and their new bikes.

The human brain's power could compete with any machine. And now a group of scientists from across Europe are trying to build one using the world's most p1. computer.

Our brains have 100 billion neurons Each one performs billions of ‘calculations’ second s2. to a desktop computer.

So the brain computer will need to be able to do a billion calculations.

Finding a way to power the supercomputer will be one of the Scientists' major challenges. They hope to c3. it within 12 years.

Group leader, Professor Henry Markram, said, “The billions of interconnected neurons make it hard for us to truly understand how the brain works. Simulating it will make it much e4. allowing us to operate and measure any aspect of the brain.”

The brain will be built in facility in Germany. It will have thousands of 3D images, so scientists can “fly” around different areas and w5. how they communicate with each other.

If the “brain” works, it will help scientists understand brain diseases such as Parkinson's, and know more about how we think and make d6..

There are concerns about the consequences of the computers which can think for themselves. But Professor Markram said “This is one of the t7. great challengers for humans. We need to understand earth, space and the brain. We need to understand what makes us human.”

As a child, you might be saying, “I am just kid! I shouldn't have to work!” Yes, you probably don't have to, but here are some reasons why you may want to work in your spare time.

Working is learning. By working to earn your own money, you will be learning skills you need to succeed in the future. These skills can include things like dealing with money, understanding what customers want and need, getting along with people, using tools and technology, using your time and materials wisely and many more.

Money gives you choices. If you want to see a movie, play great video game, or eat out with your friends, you will need money to do it. When your allowance runs out, does the fun run out, too? With your own extra money, it doesn't have to. Since the money is earned by you, parents generally allow you to spend it as you choose.

Independence is a great feeling. Some people think that asking for money is a lot easier than earning it. But when you make your own money, you needn't ask someone else to give you financial help. There is nothing like the proud feeling of taking your own money to the bank or store.

It beats being bored. Sometimes you may be bored sitting at home with nothing to do. Well, how about coming up with a plan to earn some money? That can be a great way to break through the boredom. By using your brain and your body to do jobs and make money, you will have a good time and feel that life is very interesting!
