Although we may not admit it，many of us like to stay in our comfort zones．This is especially true for celebrities（名人）．After they have gotten famous for doing something well，many of them prefer to stay where they are．
But Selena Gomez，2 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )3，doesn’t believe in staying where she is．When many teenagers her age were busy at school，Gomez had already established herself as a sweet young actress in TV series produced by the Disney Channel．But that was just where her ambitions started．As The New York Times noted，“While some child stars would have stopped trying to improve their careers after a few movies and hit songs，Gomez has always kept her eggs in a few different baskets．”
Her lates ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t album（专集，唱片集）） Revival，which came out on Oct 9，is her first album outside of the Disney-owned Hollywood Records．She was also the executive producer （制片人）for the album，taking on more creative control and writing six songs on her own．On Dec 11，Gomez received the Chart Topper award for her successful album at Billboard’s yearly Women in Music event.
Indeed，the title of the album，Revival，shows that she is no longer part of Disney．In fact， Gomez left the company last year to step outside her comfort zone．“I wanted to be my own person. I wanted to test myself,”she told Elle magazine．As it turns out，she hasn’t just done well in singing and acting．Gomez is also one of three executive producers working to make best-selling young adult novel 13 Reasons Why into a TV series．Gomez also has a production company，a perfume brand and four films．

One of the larges ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t youth organizations in the world is the 4-H，an organization of clubs for young people between 9 and 19．The main purpose of 4-H is to provide young people with the practical skills and understanding they will need to become useful members of their communities．The four H’s stand for head，heart，hands，and health．
When4-H clubs first began in America in the early 1900s，members were mostly young people from rural areas．The focus was on farm projects，such as raising pigs and growing and canning food．Today over 75％of the club members come from towns，cities，and suburbs，and hundreds of projects exist，each adapted to its geographical area．While rural districts choose conservation，forestry，and farm management projects，projects in urban areas often involve nutrition，health，car care，and money management．
The 4-H program in A ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )merica is a joint service of the U．S．Department of Agriculture，state universities，and county governments．Additional funding(资助)is provided by business firms and private organizations. Members of the clubs are guided by volunteer adult leaders and their teenage assistants. In the clubs，4-H’ers learn about and work on solving serious problems that face their communities，issues like environmental protection and community safety．
In addition to the 4-H clubs in the U．S．states and territories，more than eighty countries have adapted the 4-H idea to fit their own needs．In the less developed countries，many clubs offer courses in proper nutrition and in new farming technology．

“I’d 1eave it to him． ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )I didn’t necessarily want to tell him how to draw because I wanted it to be exactly what he did and it to come from his thoughts and his creativity.”
“If You Were M ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e”tells Burnie’s story．It says he was born to“loving but inexperienced parents．”It tells he was diagnosed with Asperger’s at age three．It also explains why he has few friends．
“He's a loner（喜欢独处的 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )人） most of the time．And then if he is approached，by kids，he doesn’t always know what to say．”
Burnie wants people ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) to know that he has a full life．He attends school，and after class，goes to a part-time job at the library．He says he enjoys the work．
His teacher Anya Plana-Hutt is proud of him.
“The fact that Burni ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e was able to illustrate阐明） his mother’s book and share it with so many people，I think it's a very good message．It allows people to understand how it is to be on Burnie’s side of the road．”
