I was in a rush as always, but this time it was fr an imprtant date I just culdn' t be late fr! I fund myself at a checkut cunter behind an elderly wman seemingly in n hurry as she paid fr her grceries. A PhD student with nt a lt f mney, I had hurried int the stre t pick up sme flwers. I was in a huge rush, thinking f my upcming evening. I did nt want t be late fr this date.
We were in Bstn, a place nt always knwn fr small cnversatin between strangers. The wman stpped unlading her basket and lked up at me. She smiled. It was a nice smile —warm and reassuring — and I returned her_gift_by smiling back.
“Must be a special lady, whever it is that will be getting thse beautiful flwers，” she said.
“Yes, she' s special，” I said, and then t my embarrassment, the wrds kept cming ut. “It' s nly ur secnd date，but smehw I am just having the feeling she's‘the ne' ，”Jkingly, I added, “The nly prblem is that I can' t figure ut why she' d want t date a guy like me.”
“Well, I think she's very lucky t have a byfriend wh brings her such lvely flwers and wh is bviusly in lve with her，” the wman said. “My husband used t bring me flwers every week — even when times were tugh and we didn' t have much mney. Thse were incredible days; he was very rmantic and — f curse — I miss him since he' s passed away.”
I paid fr my flwers as she was gathering up her grceries. There was n dubt in my mind as I walked up t her. I tuched her n the shulder and said, “Yu were right, yu knw. These flwers are indeed fr a very special lady.” I handed her the flwers and thanked her fr such a nice cnversatin.
It tk her a mment t realize that I was giving her the flwers I had just purchased.“Yu have a wnderful evening，”I said. I left her with a big smile and my heart warmed as I saw her smelling the beautiful flwers.
I remember being slightly late fr my date that night and telling my girlfriend the abve stry. A cuple f years later，when I finally wrked up the curage t ask her t marry me，she tld me that this stry had helped t seal it fr her — that was the night that I wn her heart.

We already knw the fastest, least expensive way t slw climate change: Use less energy. With a little effrt, and nt much mney, mst f us culd reduce ur energy diets by 25 percent r mre — ding the Earth a favr while als helping ur wallets.
Nt lng ag, my wife, PJ, and I tried a new diet — nt t lse a little weight but t answer an annying questin abut climate change. Scientists have reprted recently that the wrld is heating up even faster than predicted nly a few years ag，and that the cnsequences culd be severe if we dn' t keep reducing emissins (排放) f carbn dixide (CO2) and ther greenhuse gases that are trapping heat in ur atmsphere.
We decided t try an experiment.Fr ne mnth we recrded ur persnal emissins f CO2. We wanted t see hw much we culd cut back, s we went n a strict diet. The average US husehld(家庭) prduces abut 150 punds f CO2 a day by ding cmmn place things like turning n aircnditining r driving cars. That' s mre than twice the Eurpean average and almst five times the glbal average, mstly because Americans drive mre and have bigger huses. But hw much shuld we try t reduce?
