Junelle Lynch knocked on more than 200 doors in the Gayln Manor neighborhood of Brunswick in recent weeks. Her aim is to collect hundreds of pounds of food for the Brunswick Food Bank.
“I like helping people a lot,” said Junelle, who celebrated her 11th birthday in June.
With the support of her parents Isabella and Robert, Junelle walked along the streets with an orange grocery bag(雜貨袋). Isabella always accompanies her daughter. Isabella helps her daughter by car, so Junelle can empty her grocery bag when it becomes heavy. Junelle’s friend, Destiny Williams, helped the first night, but he didn’t turn up the rest of the time.
Neighbor Lynda Mallory donated food to Junelle. Mallory dropped noodles, canned soup, vegetables and fruits into Junelle's bag. After visiting the last house and looking at what she collected, Junelle said she felt good about what she achieved with the help of her neighbors.
Working an hour a night three times per week, she has collected more than 400 pounds of canned and boxed food. This isn't the first year she’s collected food. Junelle started nearly three years ago when, at 8 years old, she saw a collection box at a grocery store and decided to become involved. In her first year, she collected 80 pounds of food in the mostly undeveloped neighborhood, and 214 pounds the next year. The food helped feed many families.
When she isn't helping, Junelle is a straight?A student who snowboards, plays the trumpet, sings with the Brunswick Chorus, plays basketball and writes poems. She plans on spending her summer vacation attending a basketball camp.

“When an American asks me this question, it’s like a wall of ice crashing down between us.” my Moscow-born friend Galina said. The question is “How are you?”.
The answer Americans give, of course is, “Fine.” But when Russians hear this they think one of two things: you are experiencing a rare moment of fineness or you are lying.
Ask a Russian, “How are you?” and you will hear, for better or worse, the truth. I have experienced many painful minutes of silence after my grandmother made her stock response: “Terrible,” to which she might add, “Why? Because being old is terrible and I am very old.”
“‘Fine’ makes Russians think that Americans have no soul,” I explained recently to an American-born friend. “That they just want to go home, eat a frozen dinner in front of the TV, and wait out the hours before going to work to make money again.” He laughed, “You know, there’s something to that.”
The thing most Russians don’t realize is that, in English, “How are you?” isn’t a question at all, but a form of “hi”, like the Russian “privyet!”
Psychologists at the University of Michigan have shown that, while Russians are, indeed, easier to be depressed than Americans, their open acceptance of bad experiences might be healthier.
Recently, when I looked through a few American guides on traveling to Russia, I was disappointed to find that they all suggested that tourists adopt the American approach to “How are you”.
1.When you ask a Russian “how are you” the Russian will ________.
A. answer “fine” B. tell you the truth
C. make no answer D. get angry and walk away
2.If an American answers “fine” to the question “how are you”, the Russian will think ______.
A. he is not honest B. he will go home
C. he likes watching TV D. he is living a bad life
3.We can infer Russians’ answer to “how are you” can make Americans feel ________.
A. happy B. angry
C. puzzled D. touched
