26、 Have you ever felt the desire to move and experience another beautiful part of the country? This could be the perfect career change for you.
The National Trust in England is looking for someone to work as a ranger on the Fame Islmds, one of Britain’s oldest nature reserves located just off the Northumberland coast.
For $22,668 a year, the successful applicant will be required to look after the local wildlife, including the 200 seal pups which are born on the islands each year and 37,000 pairs of puffins.
The ranger will get the chance to work in some of the nation’s most attractive places and spaces — impressive sunrises a one-minute ride and one of England’s largest seal colonies on his doorstep. But like every job, it doesn’t come without a downside. Apart from avoiding the dive-bombing Arctic terns, there is no running water on the island and there will be severe storms to fight with during the spring.
Along with a love of nature and the outdoors, the National Trust is looking for “an excellent team player” who has experience in conservation work. This job isn’t the normal 9 to 5, so being good at PowerPoint isn’t a must. With 50,000 annual visitors every year, you really need to be able to get on with people and show them how they can participate to help nature.

28、 My poor mother would be the first to tell you that having a food scientist for a daughter was not always easy.
One weekend visit home,I stood in her kitchen and surveyed her food preparation techniques.
“You know,”I said,“there’s no nutrition left when you overcook the vegetables like that.”
She smiled at me patiently and said,“Oh my!It’s a miracle(奇迹)that after all these years,my kid even survived at all!”
Survive we did.Mom’s meals were simple but well-balanced.My sisters and I grew up with a variety of food on our family table.When it came to vegetables,we ate almost everything—from green chilies to turnip greens.
On school mornings,Mom switched on our bedroom light to silently tell us it was time to get up.Then she’d rush to the kitchen to make a nourishing(有营养的)breakfast we’d eat before heading out the door.
In the summer,Mom always had fresh tomatoes and plenty of zucchini in her garden and on the dinner table.And I learned to love green beans from visits to our cousins.My aunt would sit me on the back porch(门廊)and have me take the ends off fresh beans.Years later I would learn that kids are more likely to accept foods when they are involved with them in some way.
One thing surprised me at the time but became very clear after I had a child myself.My mother LOVED it when I took the initiative(主动)to prepare a meal.She went back to work when I was in high school,so I was often the first one home.One day,after I’d finished homework and taken care of the dogs and horses,I decided to try a recipe from one of Mom’s cookbooks.
It wasn’t a perfect meal.But when she got home and saw the table set and dinner ready,she was so happy.That was an enjoyable moment for me.
Now I understand that food is only one way we receive nutrition.We also need soul food,and my mom did a good job with that.She taught me humility(谦逊),thankfulness and unconditional love.
I hope I could cook a meal for her this year.I’d even try not to overcook the vegetables.
