community in Brookfield Illinois US with my classmates to do community service After my very first visit to Cantata my life changed forever That may sound a bit dramatic 戏剧性的 but volunteering with the elderly has changed my views on life Our visits last about an hour and we bring 25 30 students every time We play board games and cards with the residents 居民 while we re there You can watch all the movies and TV shows you want about life back then but nothing compares to talking to the people who were there Just hearing their stories has touched me in a way I never thought possible Whether it was talking to 98 year old Hurricane Hilda about her great days as a roller skater or chatting with Lou about the times she danced with a famous actor I was completely attracted by every single memory the residents wanted to share with me Even the residents who don t have amazing memories make the experience meaningful I remember visiting Mrs Robinson She couldn t think of much about her past but she told me she d never forget how kind I was just to listen to her rambling 漫谈 It made me realize that it s the little things that make life worth living That s something I won t forget anytime soon If there s one thing I ve realized in my three years of visiting Cantata it s that presence just being there means more than anything to many of the residents And no matter how busy our lives are there s always time to make someone s day For me it feels great to be a source 源泉 of happiness a smile on a bad day or a listening ear for old memories And at the end of the day that s all that matters It s easy to feel like you don t have anything in common with the elderly especially when 第 2 页 共 22 页 you re a teenager But that s not true at all I hate to be overly clich d 陈词滥调的 here but age really is just a number As young adults it s important for us to realize this sooner rather than later We can learn a lot from the elderly and they can often get something from teenagers too 1

machine that can raise lots of interesting questions Why for example are yawns 呵欠 contagious 传染的 What s up with ice cream headaches Here are answers to these and other questions about our bodies Why do I get a headache when I eat ice cream too quickly Scientists aren t exactly sure what causes the brain freeze when we eat ice cream or other super cold foods too quickly though some believe it s the result of changed blood flow in the nervous system Blood vessels in the head tighten to stop the loss of body heat and then relax to 第 7 页 共 22 页 let blood flow rise that sudden rush of blood is what causes the headache You can improve an ice cream headache by rapidly rubbing your tongue across the roof of your mouth to help warm up things What causes my stomach to make a low continuous noise

smooth muscle tissue These muscles move food fluids and gas through your digestive tract It can make you feel embarrassed 尴尬的 but is nothing to worry about Why do I blush when I m embarrassed When you re embarrassed your brain releases a shot of adrenaline 肾上腺素 which makes your heart race and blood vessels become larger in size All this happens to increase blood flow and oxygen delivery throughout
