10、just doing it because we had nothing to do, living in a small town.” “Id check different websites for the hottest songs, and Id record my own videos,” he explains. “Thats how people began to find me online.”His videos got millions of hits and he signed with a record company. The result was the relea

11、se of Austins first album, Junior Year. While it seems like a sudden rise for the teenager, Austin admits the early days were not always fun. He says a lot of people thought badly of him for posting his videos online. Yet this didnt put him off.“I kept working hard. ”And the hits on his videos kept

12、coming. Austins achievement and spirit make him a perfect fit for the message of We Day. After all, Free the Children, the creator of the event, was founded to “enable youth to make changes.” Even Austins unusual rise by way of the Internet fits with the way Free The children works and raises money.

13、 Because of Austin, his four million followers will learn about Free the Children. While Austins presence certainly helps We Day, its good for him, too.

17、suffer from shortness of breath. Asthma can begin at any age. Childhood asthma, often beginning when a child is younger than 10 years old, is one of the most common childhood diseases. Doctors report that the number of young people with asthma is increasing. It is the number one cause of absence fro

18、m school. If parents have asthma, their children are more likely to develop the disease. Children in homes where an adult smokes are more at risk.It is important to find out the triggers for asthma. As we know, dust, pollen, or animals often make people suffer from asthma. Once a child learns the tr

19、iggers, he can help prevent future attacks. About half of all children outgrow asthma and then asthma attacks stop when they are teenagers. However, many people live with the disease into adulthood. Children often take control drugs once or twice a day to help prevent asthma attacks, if a child begi

20、ns to have an asthma attack, a quick-relief drug is also necessary. This is often an inhaler. School-aged children usually carry their inhalers with them.

24、problems when there are too many of them. I live in Virginia, USA, and sometimes see a plantcommonly known as Kudzu that seems to cover everything in the area, even climbing over whole trees and houses.Kudzu is an unbelievable plant since it grows very fast. It was first brought to the United States

25、 from south-east Asia around the 1870s as a crop that farmers could grow. However, Kudzu quickly came to be considered harmful throughout the southern United States.Since Kudzu grows fast in many different environments, it can completely cover areas of land quickly.

26、y insects or birds in the United States so it can grow unchecked. Kudzu can cover trees, bushes, and even houses.

27、rows more quickly than other native plants.All foreign plants have the possibility to spread quickly. Not only are they costly, but planting them in gardens actually takes away food from insects.
