Haiti (海地) has been my lifelong home.I was going to get a good education and study medicine in my country.After finishing my postgraduate abroad，I returned to Haiti with a strong desire to give back to my country.
I got the news that Haiti had been a large earthquake while on my way to Miami to attend a meeting.After many attempts，I was finally able to arrive in Haiti.Upon arrival，I learned that two of my colleagues died in the earthquake.Almost everyone I knew had lost a close family member.
Within days of my return to Haiti，I was amazed by team after team of doctors and nurses from all over the world who tried their best to help.They quickly set up a triage (分诊台) in the parking lot at the hospital where I had my private practice，Center Hospitalier du SacreCoeur (CDTI).More importantly，their support was their deep concern about the pain and sorrow my country men were experiencing. This helped me get through some very long and difficult days.
Another thing showed how the CDTI hospital owners，Dr.Reynold Savain and his wife，responded to the disaster.Without hesitation，they opened the door to the injured without considering how it would affect the future of their hospital.
Their act of kindness and spirit of generosity(慷慨) has had a lasting effect on my life.The care has made a huge difference to many of the injured.The recovery rate and quality of followup care for those treated have been far beyond my expectations.All of the patients are very grateful.

When the cathedral of Notre Dame de Paris(巴黎圣母院) was on fire，it seemed as if the nation had lost a piece of its soul.A similar tragedy took place in 19th century Russia.And the rebuilding effort of the Russians might offer some inspiration for the French.
Standing in the heart of the Russian capital，with 60，000 square meters of floor space and 1500 rooms，the Winter Palace was among the world's grandest building.On Dec.17，1837，a fire broke out at the Winter Palace.By the morning of Dec.19，only the structure's framework remained.
For the czar(沙皇)，the fire presented a political challenge.Fearing that Russia's enemies would cast the fire as a blow to the czarist orders，the czar's supporters quickly worked together to shape the description of the fire in Russia and abroad.They wanted the country to appear united.And they certainly didn't want despair to become the story.
The first full account of the fire was written in French by the poet Petr Viazemskii.A Russian
