As the saying goes, “Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a
day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.”This is the
way the charity organization Heifer International(国际小母牛慈善组织)
wants to end world hunger.
It began in the 1930s when an American farmer, Dan West, went to
Spain to help people in need. He tried to feed the people with milk. But
it seemed that there would never be enough milk. It made him think that
what they needed was “not a cup, but a cow”.
7
Dan West returned to America. He worked together with some
friends to find ways to end hunger. He believed giving animals and
providing training would stop world hunger. With his help, Heifer
International was set up.
On Heifer International's website, you will see a list of animals like
cows, chickens, pigs and even fish and bees. You can offer help by
buying some animals for one certain family. Those animals will help
babies get better lives. They will pass on the act of kindness to others.
More importantly, you are buying the resources(资源) for programs
run by Heifer International to help more families.
The programs also help small-sized farms. As a rule, each farmer
must give his animal's first female(雌性) baby to another in need.
Heifer International also provides training on animals' health and feeding.
And these farmers all agree to teach others what they have learned as
another rule.
However, there is still a long way to go. The milk may run out.
But if families have their own cows, they can get plenty of milk to feed
themselves. The organization wants the farmers to go on working together,
helping each other and learning from each other. Maybe we can really
stop hunger.

one possible version:
My Green Life
Green mountains and clear waters are indeed mountains of gold
and silver. Nowadays, the environmental pollution is becoming worse
and worse. As students, what can we do? For me, I will try my best
to save energy and reduce pollution.
Firstly, I will take public transportation as much as possible
when I go out. For example, I ride a bike or take a bus to school. I
16
think it can reduce the air pollution. Secondly, I always turn off the
lights, fans and other electronic products when they are not in use.
Thirdly, I plan to recycle and make full use of old things in my life.
When I go shopping, I use paper or cloth bags instead of plastic
bags.
I also hope more and more students can join me in protecting
the environment to live a green life.
