Every child has a dream of what they want to be，right? When Renee Butts was little，her dream was to become a volunteer firefighter because her father was one．Sadly，when she was 14，her father died and she was never able to volunteer with him．Renee's story doesn't end there，however，which is why I think of her as a true hero．She was strong-minded and never gave up，which makes her a good firefighter．
Some days she must be ready to deal with any emergency，like fighting a fire，dealing with a car accident or helping someone who's sick．Other days she is in the driver's seat．Sometimes Renee works nine to eleven days a month on 24-hour shits．She also has a family to take care of．Her husband is a firefighter，too．
Renee remembers the first time she fought a fire．She was awoken early in the morning by the alarm．She said she was very nervous but did what she had to do．
When I asked Renee what the best part of her job is，she replied，“Helping people and saving their lives．” I think that shows signs of being a true hero．She's always glad to do anything for anyone in need．With 140 people in her station，Renee is one of the only three women．
I think she's great．We could never live without people like her who is glad to help others．Renee's deed helps me believe that I can do anything．I hope someday to be just like her：to wake up and help people every day．

Do you want to know something about children in Africa? What to they do for fun every day? Find out here:
Education
School is expensive for many African children. Lots of families can’t afford school uniforms or exercise books even though they don’t have to pay for school.
For those lucky enough to go to school , they have a lot to learn. Some take two language classes: English or French, and their first language. There is also math, science, history, social studies and geography. Chores take up much of children’s time after school. They have to get water and firewood for the family every day. Also there’s cleaning , washing and helping Mum with the meal.
Daily fun
It’s not all work and no play. Sports are very popular. Children can make goals with twigs ( 嫩樹枝)and their own footballs with plastic and bits of string ( 繩子 ). They play in the country and the streets of old towns. There’re many football teams for teenagers in Africa.
Internet
It’s really expensive to get on the Internet. To surf the net for 20 hours costs over 600 yuan. This is more than the average (平均的) monthly pay per person.
Egypt and South Africa are the top two users of the Internet in Africa. All of the capital cities there can get on the Internet.
Some schools offer computer lessons but few students can enjoy computer fun at home.
【小題1】 The underlined word "Chores" probably means
| A．網上沖浪 | B．家務雜活 | C．體育活動 | D．家庭作業 |
