Jack Petchey was born in east London in 1925. At the age of 13, he left school with no qualifications.When the World War Ⅱ started, Petchey helped out as a messenger for the police and the fire service before he joined the Royal Navy (皇家海军). After the war, he spent all of his money on a car and opened a taxi business.
To make sure he never missed a customer phoning up for a taxi, Petchey slept on the floor of his taxi business. Gradually, he said, “Business got better and better and I worked harder and harder.” He sold second-hand cars, and then sold his car showroom when he realized he could make more money in other business.
Over the years, Petchey had made hundreds of millions of pounds from his business skills and hard work.
In 1999, Petchey decided he wanted to give something back to society. He set up the Jack Petchey Foundation, an organization that helps the young people in London and nearby Essex get more chances. Petchey said he did this because “It takes just one person who believes in you to change your life.” In the end, he helped improve the lives of more than a million young people by funding clubs and schools, and giving them the chance to take part in art, science and sports.

Baizhifang is a historic place in Beijing. It is said that the eponymous Baizhifang Lion Dance came out in 1740. The special dance quickly became popular with people.
To this day, the Baizhifang Lion Dance still stands out among its kind. It is a blend of history, culture and great skill. However, the dance is slowly going away. Few people would like to practice it. “I have to ask people to learn it,” Yang Jingwei, an inheritor of this special lion dance, said.
On May 12, Yang met some students. They would like to learn the dance from Yang. Thinking back to his childhood life, he knew it was important to help children learn about it. “Interest is a must. If children are interested in the dance, I’ll be happy to teach them,” Yang said.
Now, Yang tries to make more people know about the lion dance. He takes the dance team to kindergartens, primary schools, middle schools and universities. He also tries his best to help people know more about the dance.
Many reporters talk with Yang. Some students and dance lovers also visit him. Yang carefully introduces the Baizhifang Lion Dance to everyone. And more and more people want to learn the dance.
