A

Captain John Bunch loves to go fishing. In fact, Bunch loves fishing so much that

he became a professional fishing guide decades ago and has remained one ever since.

There is something, however, that Bunch loves even more. That is his country and the

men and women who join the army to protect it. Ever since Bunch met a young soldier

in 2005, who wanted to go on a fishing trip before he left the army, the Florida native

has offered over 1 200 fishing trips to veterans(退伍军人), with all expenses paid.

And Bunch’s efforts to give back to those who have served their nation go even

much further. Inspired by that fishing trip 11 years ago, he founded Operation Open

Arms, which has since helped nearly 3 400 US troops and given out more than $12 million

in direct benefits with his charity. Operation Open Arms also provides free weddings,

vacations, and more leisurely activities to veterans, and can rely on a network of

over 300 businesses and individual partners to get former soldiers anything they might

need upon returning home from army.

The former marine’s heartwarming generosity is a result of his own experiences

in the military and the pride he has for his country. "I do this because I love my

country and I do this because America is the greatest country in the world," he told

NBC’s Today Show. Bunch’s unwavering commitment goes so far that he once turned down

an invitation from then-President George W. Bush, because he had already scheduled

a fishing trip with one of his veterans. Even the military has recognized Bunch’s

work of love, and earlier this year honored him and his organization with the

Outstanding Civilian Service Award and the Army’s most prestigious civilian award.

(2017·成都高三诊断)Having spring around makes you feel different after such

a long winter journey. The power of sunshine brings us a lot of comfort, optimism,

self­confidence and of course a smile. Imagine how great it will be if we are so

positive all year round!

Living like this is possible if you really think about it.In order to exist in

such a state of happiness, we must have sunshine radiating from within ourselves,

shining from our hearts, minds and souls.Actually, that’s your choice, and if you

think that way then your own life will reflect that attitude of yours!

In order to make “sunshine〞 or rather “light〞 part of our being, it is so

important that you watch your thoughts, your words and your actions so that you will

accept what you really feel you’d like to create in your own life.Watch your thoughts

and really become aware of how many negative thoughts pass through your mind about

yourself and other people around you. Watch to see how often you gossip(说闲话) about

other people, which is actually often attached with feelings of jealousy(妒忌) and

insecurity about yourself.

You are also supposed to take a close look at your “intention〞. How many of

you do something for another person without expecting to receive something in return?

It might not even have to be a material or physical thing you expect; expecting to
