Today, everyone at the university knows her as the “Squirrel Girl”.Mary starte

20、d bringing them food, and gradually they began to trust her. She managed to put a hat on a squirrel and take a picture. She posted similar photos on Facebook. The response was greatly positive, and before long Mary and her squirrels became an Internet hit.Growing up in a neighborhood outside State C

21、ollege, Mary was always fond of birds and animals around her home, but she didnt chat with people very much.

In the beginning, she would throw peanuts up the trees on campus and invite the squirrels to come down and get them, but they hesitated to approach

24、 her. She had the patience to earn their trust, though.This year, Mary is graduating with a degree in English and wildlife sciences.

27、Zaevion Dobson, threw himself on top of three girls as gang（黑帮） members released a lot of bullets for a shooting the day before. Dobson traded his life for the girls safety; he died after being struck by a bullet.The shooting and Dobsons heroism got national attention and even attention from the Pre

28、sident. And Fulton High School headmaster Rob Speas commented: “You really dont make a decision in those moments. You just react. And the way Dobson reacted was to take care of other people. A kid made a quick-thinking decision to take care of others. “Hes right, and Dobsons heroism speaks well of h

29、is family and his community. Football encourages quick-thinking ability, but how people react in that quick-thinking is a reflection of the values theyve absorbed over a lifetime. No man has greater love than one who lays down his life for his friends.”Wed like to live in a world where such heroic t
