There is an old man in our neighbourhood who is very unusual. The first time I saw 【1】 running along the road, I could see he had something in his hands. I thought maybe it was a pair of gloves.

This 【4】 old man became famous in our neighbourhood. He never talked to anyone, but whenever he went by, I would wave to him with a smile. He was 【5】 stopping to pick up garbage that people had thrown right on the street.

One day, we heard the news that while jogging, the strange old man was hit by a car and would have to 【6】 some time in the hospital. We also learned that he could not speak English very well, which was why he didn't talk to anyone.

In the country where Mr. Polanski grew up, there was no garbage on the street. So when he 【7】 saw people drop garbage on the street, it really upset him. He helped clean up the garbage so that he could be happy in this new 【8】.

Later, our school decided to have a run in the spring to pick up garbage, just like Mr. Polanski. He was even 【9】 to cut the ribbon for the first run.

We called it the “Polanski Run”. That day, hundreds of 【10】 jogged around the neighbourhood in groups, picking up garbage and putting it in bags. It became one of our school's annual events.

24、When the weather is hot, you go to a lake or an ocean. When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel cool. Why? The sun makes the earth（地面） hot but it cannot make the water very hot. Although the air over the earth becomes hot, the air over the water stays cool. The hot air over the earth goes up. Then the cool air over the water moves in and takes the place of the hot air. When it moves in, you will feel the wind. And the wind makes you cool.

Of course, scientists cannot answer all of our questions. If we ask “Why is the ocean full of salt（盐）?”, scientists will say that the salt comes from rocks. When a rock gets very hot or very cold, it cracks (断裂). Rain falls into the cracks and then carries the salt into the ocean. But then we ask, “What happens to the salt in the ocean?” The ocean does not get saltier every year. Scientists are not sure about the answer to this question.

We know a lot about our world. But there are still many answers which we don't have and are curious (好奇的) about.
