(2023·临沂模拟)Stuck inside his room at an assisted living centre, Bob Coleman knew he could not go out in public during the epidemic．But he was not cut off from outside: he shared his love for country music over the Internet．“Hello, everybody．It's a bright day in Tennessee，”he said into his microphone．“This is Bob Coleman, coming to you from Room 3325 …” Then Coleman began to play the music he loves — hits from country music stars．The 88­year­old carefully chose each song．

Coleman and several other retirees have turned into DJs, for a new online radio hour known as “Radio Recliner”．A marketing company called Luckie came up with the idea of “Radio Recliner”．Listeners can send song requests in honour of family or friends．For example, listeners might hear a message like this, “Hey, Granny．This is your favourite granddaughter Amy．We just wanted to call in and say we love you．”The 60­minute show started with retirees in middle Tennessee．It has since expanded, with residents of assisted living centres in other states taking part in the project．Many jumped at the chance to work as a DJ to ease the loneliness of social distancing rules．

Mitch Bennett serves as Luckie's chief creative officer．He says the idea was to provide a sense of community to older people．“For this generation, radio was the original social media，”Bennett said．“Dedicating a song to someone you love and having them hear it along with everyone else is a special way of connecting．”

In Georgia, 80­year­old Ed Rosenblatt, who had made full preparations for his show, said an hour he spent playing songs on “Radio Recliner”resulted in a flood of text messages, emails and calls from family and friends, and many of the messages were from people he had not heard from for years．

At only 9 years old, Lesia Cartelli was badly burnt in a gas explosion at her grandparents' house．The burns were so severe that her own grandfather didn't recognise her．Lesia could have remained withdrawn for her whole life．But now, this woman uses her painful past to help other burn victims find healing (治愈)．“My life got better when I started to look at my life as a gift，”Lesia said．

Lesia started Angel Faces, a national nonprofit organisation offering week­long supportive retreats (休养所) for adolescent female burn victims．These retreats, for girls ranging from ages 11 — 19, provide seminars to help the girls heal emotionally (情感上)．

Save Electricity, Save Our Earth

Earth_Hour_falls_on_the_last_Saturday_of_March,_from_20：30_to_21：30．It was named by the WWF in 2007, aiming to raise people's awareness of the importance of saving electricity．

Electricity plays a crucial role in our daily life．Not only does electricity make production more efficient, but also it enables people to study, work and have fun at night．Therefore, it is of vital importance to save electricity．To begin with, whenever we leave our classrooms or dormitories, we should turn off the lights．In addition, it is suggested that all the electric appliances should be unplugged when not used．What's more, we are supposed to use air conditioners less, and when we use them, we should keep the temperature above 26℃．

All in all, it is high time that we devoted ourselves to saving electricity．To save electricity is to save our Earth．
