Ive liked trains probably from the day I was born, he told Good Morning America. When I was very little, he said, my grandpa got me a train model. I would just watch it go round for hours and hours.When Robertson finally had the opportunity to ride on a train, he felt great. His journey was so mind-blowing that he couldnt keep it to himself: he decided to take all his classmates to go on a ride with him. When he found that some of his classmates couldnt pay the fare, he collected cans (罐子) and bottles and raised more than $1,000 for them. That trip was such a happy one that he made it a yearly action. It never gets boring for some reason; its just fun, he said. It really lets people get away from their busy life and have fun.Every October, Robertson takes a new group of children to ride on the train but now, he has a problem. Several disabled children were refused because the train was not accessible (可用的) to disabled people. He was angry to think that children of his own age couldnt ride a train, his mother said.

Children will learn where food comes from, and they may like to have their own little field. Size doesnt matterYou can work in any place you like, not just in a common vegetable garden. Grow fruit and vegetables in a window box, or use your flowerbed (花圃) to grow vegetables and beautiful flowers together. The natural wayIf you want to grow foods organically, you cant use sprays (喷剂) that would harm children, pets and wildlife. You should work with nature rather than against it.Growing your own food doesnt take up too much time and costs little. A few seeds and some basic tools will be OK.

They would prefer to spend their time going to the park or reading some really good books with their children. Added to the opposition are those who say that homework increases the gap (差距) between the rich and the poor, since middle class families do better when it comes to helping their children with their homework. So, who is right? Is homework an enemy or a help? According to experts the truth lies somewhere in the middle.66. The author thought that her daughters homework _.
