    Gutierrez's life would never be the same again after finding a copy of Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy in the garbage 20 years ago.It happened while he was driving his garbage truck through wealthier neighbourhoods at night and seeing abandoned books.It aroused his desire to start rescuing books from the garbage.He used to take home between 50 and 60 books every morning.Eventually,he turned his book collection into a community library for children from low-income families.
    Colombia's capital city of Bogota has 19 public libraries.However,these libraries tend to be far away from where rural and poorer communities live.The option of buying new books is non-existent for families struggling to make ends meet.Gutierrez's community library is a true representation of how one man's garbage can be another's treasure.
    Gutierrez grew up poor,and his family could not afford to educate him beyond primary school.Nevertheless,his mother was a passionate reader and read stories to him every night.Her love for books left a deep impression on Gutierrez.
    Today,his makeshift community library,called "The Strength of Words",occupies most of his home in southern Bogota,and is piled from floor to ceiling with fiction and non-fiction titles.Everything from school textbooks to storybooks can be found in his collection of more than 20.000 books!As word began to spread about his amazing project,people began sending him thousands more books to grow his library.
    Despite having done so much for his community,Gutierrez is not yet content to call it a day.He continues to search through garbage cans for reading materials.Today,the Gutierrez family does not merely want to start libraries in neighbourhoods.They want to create spaces for school children to spend their time reading.
    Gutierrez's journey to give back to his local community is an amazing example of how every one of us can improve the lives of those around us.How might we take a leaf out of Gutierrez's books and impact the less fortunate around us?

  • 3.Everybody gets stressed from time to time.(1)
    Some ways of dealing with stress,like screaming or hitting someone,don't solve much.But other ways,like talking to someone you trust,can lead you to solve your problem or at least feel better.
       Try taking these four steps next time you are stressed:
       Get support.When you need help,reach out to the people who care about you.Talk to a trusted adult,such as a parent or other relatives. (2)
    They might have had similar problems,such as dealing with a test,or the death of a beloved pet.
       Don't take it out on yourself.Sometimes when kids are stressed and upset they take it out on themselves.Oh,dear,that's not a good idea.
       Remember that there are always people to help you.Don't take it out on yourself.(3)

       Try to solve the problem.After you're calm and you have support from adults and friends,it's time to get down to business.(4)
    Even if you can't solve it completely,you can solve a part of it.
       (5)
    Most stress is temporary.Remember stress doesn't go away,unless you figure out the problem and start working on solving it.And if you can stay positive as you make your way through a tough time,you'll help yourself feel better even faster.Ah,it feels so good when the stress is gone.
       These steps aren't magic,but they do work.

    A.Be positive.
    B.Then,find a way to calm down.
    C.And don't forget about your friends.
    D.You need to figure out what the problem is.
    E.Different people feel stress in different ways.
