His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck.Of course, he delivered (分发) more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would write a note Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery. Then she put the note and the empty bottles into the milk box. The next day, the buttermilk would magically appear.There was also a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box in the house, so that the milk wouldnt freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.I am sad that there is no home milk delivery today. Big companies produce cheaper milk, and milk is for sale everywhere. People may not need the milkman anymore.Recently, I saw an old milk box in the countryside and it brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and put it outside the door. My sons friends always ask what it is.

People on foot pedestrians, and bicycle riders often cause accidents, too. Pedestrians sometimes walk out into the street without looking. You should always look on both sides before stepping into the street.”“Do any of you ride a bike? Bicycle riders can cause accidents by changing directions suddenly or without warning other road users. Before you turn left, for example, you s hould check behind you to make sure there arent any cars, trucks or buses coming. You should show with your left hand to tell that you want to turn left.

Being from a family that produced great actors, she quickly found her way into the spotlight (聚光灯).When she was 11 months old, she made her first advertisement（广告） on TV. She made her first movie at the age of 2. Five years later, she acted Gertie in Steven Spielbergs famous film E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982). However, it wasnt all roses and sunshine when Barrymore was growing up. Most kid stars in Hollywood cant become stars as adults. And once theyre out of order, their lives are in the darkness, smoking and drinking. So does Drew BarrymoreAs she was growing older, Barrymore started to realize that life is more meaningful than dangerous actions in the films. She started to build a career in 1997. She has made a series of successful films since then, including Charlies Angels (2000) and 50 First Dates (2004).“In my life, there is darkness and drama（有刺激）, and I have yet to explore some of that in my work life. I just want to challenge (挑战) myself and prove that I can do more.”Actually, anyone whos not familiar with her disordered childhood might find it hard to believe shes such a sweet person now. Like many of the characters she plays in her comedy, Drew is easy-going and laughs a lot. In 2007, she was on the cover of People magazines 100 Most Beautiful People issue.“Life is very interesting in the end, some of your greatest pains, become your greatest strengths（力量）,” Drew said.（1）Drew Barrymore made her first movie in .
