The moon was behind a cloud and there weren't many stars in the sky. It was a dark night. I saw a bright light in my neighbor's kitchen. I thought he was having a meal, so I went back to my bed.
Soon, there was a smell of burning in the air and I thought there was something wrong. I jumped out of the bed and went downstairs to have a look. I saw a fire coming out of my neighbor's kitchen. Then I shouted “Fire! Fire!” But no one nearby heard my shouts for help. I ran into my house, called the Fire Department and went back to my neighbor's house. I rang the doorbell, knocked at the door and called out my neighbor's name, but there was no answer. So I broke into the house and rescued (救援) a cat and a dog. I tried to pour (倒) water through the kitchen window but it was no use, because the fire was too strong. Luckily, some firemen arrived and stopped the fire.
When my neighbor came back, he was sad because his kitchen was burnt down, but he thanked me for calling the Fire Department and saving his pets. He wanted to give me some money to show his thanks but I did not accept it. Weeks later, my neighbor invited me to his new kitchen and we enjoyed a big meal there. It made me very happy.

Different weather makes people feel different.It influences health, intelligence and feelings.
In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there often have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West in America, it is very hot at some time and very cold at other time. People there have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.
The weather can also influence intelligence (智力). For example, in a report by scientists, IQ of a group of students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% lower. The wind can help people have higher intelligence. On the other hand, hot weather can make intelligence lower. Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August).
The weather also has a strong influence on people's feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold and unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18 ℃ people may become stronger. Low air pressure (压力) may make people forgetful (健忘的). People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days. People feel best at a temperature of about 18 ℃.
Are you feeling sad, tired, forgetful or unhappy today It may be the weather's problem.
