18． Marcus Deans is a student from Ontario, Canada. He won the Gloria Barron Prize for Young Heroes this year. The prize goes to young people who have a good influence (影响) on people, animals or environment all across North America. Why is Marcus Deans one of them? Because he invented a kind of water filter (过滤器) called NOGOS for developing countries.
When Marcus was 12, he saw a photo of a child in Africa drinking dirty water. "I was shocked that it still happens in the world," Marcus said. Since then, he has been working on a filter for people to get clean water easily. After many tries, Marcus succeeded and he gave the filter a name, NOGOS. It is easy to make the filter because it is mainly made of three materials: sugar, sand, and seashell. What's more, these things are easy to get.
Now Marcus is 17 years old. He is still perfecting NOGOS. "Getting to this point has not been easy but what keeps me going is that I want all people from every corner of the world to drink clean water," he said.

19． Every day, Tubbat gets up early and goes to plant trees. In fact, the 65-year-old man has spent 15 years planting trees in the desert in inner Mongolia.
Tubbat was one of the first young people in his hometown to go to college in the 1970s. After he finished college, he got a job offer from a TV station in Beijing. But he turned it down and went back to his hometown. Many people didn't understand his decision. "If you take the offer, you'll live a great life in Beijing," they said. But Tubbat held to his decision. He wanted to do something for his hometown.
After working many years in his hometown, Tubbat retired (退休) and he went on to plant trees in the desert. "My children want me to live with them in the city. But I want to grow more trees," Tubbat said. So far he has planted more than 50, 000 trees, covering about the size of 133 football fields. "I'm happy about my decision. I know I did the right thing," he said.

20． "What's your favourite book? Elephant and Piggy? Yeah, I got it." If you think you are in the library, you are wrong. In fact, you've walked into the Storybook Barber (理发店).
Two years ago, Dubuque County in Iowa, US, started a learning programme. Children from poor families can use learning resources (资源) in Dubuque for free. Holmes is a barber. He decided to use it to help kids learn. "They can have free haircuts here by reading books to me," Holmes said.
The barber was popular with kids. On the first Tuesday of every month, kids would take their favourite books and read aloud to Holmes. If they didn't know the words, Holmes was there to help. "Some parents are very busy and they don't have time to read with their kids. So I ask them to bring their kids to the barber, and they can read to me," Holmes said.
Holmes said he learned a lot from the kids too. "There was a boy who couldn't read at first. When he came back days later, he could read the book with no problems. He must have worked very hard," said Holmes. "His story told me what to do when I meet difficulties in my life."

21． The future may become easier for the blind(盲的). To help them live a normal life, a company is developing smart glasses — Angel Eyes.
　　Cai Dongyue was born blind. "I can walk with guide sticks, but I can only know the things near me," Cai said. So when he learned about the smart glasses, he went to try them. "At first, I worried that I might hit something on the street," Cai said. "But later I found the glasses were very useful. They have helped me walk farther on my own."
　　Angel Eyes have small cameras. They can take pictures and send them to a minicomputer to be identified (辨认). After that, the glasses will tell users what to do.
　　Now, the glasses can help the blind identify more than 30 types of things, like doors, stairs and cars. They can also read menus, books and names of stores. But they are not ready to identify animals yet.
What do you think of Angel Eyes? Very cool, right?
