My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents．Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers．Her parents had carefully sorted them out, although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents．At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend．

Although he is far from the White House kitchen, Obama seems to enjoy the outdoors. “As president, I am in what’s called the bubble（保護膜）, and the Secret Service makes sure that I’m always out of danger ... but I sometimes want to get out,” he said in a video.
