17、Maria Keller — Teenager Wants Every Kid to Read Indeed!
Books have huge power. Between their pages, readers can be transported to
anywhere imaginable and become just about anyone…or anything. Unluckily, many
children all over the world don’t have chances to read books!
For several years now, Maria Keller, a teenager from America, has been changing
that fact.
When she was 8 years old, Maria already loved reading. She also noticed that
some of her classmates didn’t read as much as she did. When she asked her mother
why that could be, her mother said that they might have no money to buy books. Maria
had never thought of this. She could not believe that some children might not have
bedtime stories read to them. She decided to change this.
With her mother’s help, Maria set up Read Indeed. Read Indeed is a non-profit (非
营利的) organization that is to collect and share books to children in need. During the
early stages of Read Indeed, Maria set the goal to collect and share 1 million books by
the time she was 18. It didn’t take long to reach that goal!
So far, she has collected over 2.4 million books and has sent them to many states
and countries like India, China…She says, “I cannot live without books. As I continue
my task, I have learned that the number of kids who have no books are in the hundreds
of millions. So I just can’t give up, even after reaching my goal of 1 million books.”
She recently set a new goal: to give donations (捐赠) to kids in need in every state
in the United States, and every country in the world. She always pays attention to her
progress on a large map at the warehouse (仓库) where they store and sort books.
1．Where does Maria Keller come from?

18、The Vieira family moved to the United States in 1981.At that time, they decided to stop speaking Spanish at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were now living in an English­speaking country.
Now the Vieira children are adults, and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their family and friends. But they can't communicate with them. Unfortunately this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother language behind. This is a mistake because there are many benefits to knowing more than one language.
One advantage of speaking more than one language is that you can communicate with more people around the world. You don't have to depend on others to talk for you, so you are more independent. People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate.
Furthermore, speaking the second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively .Local expre
