怂–sǒng-两个人，一个心。
有两解:
1其中一个人让另一个人和他同一个心，有怂恿之意。
2两个人才敢去做，胆子小的意思。

2017年五月28日这天风和日丽。不冷不热，正是郊游的好日子。我们和好朋友一家一起去离圣路易一小时车程的PickleSpring郊游。
我们一行七人兴冲冲到了目的地。一路上，Alex，Allen，和Daniel在后座玩手机，我们大人砍大山，不知不觉就到了。
这是个路标很不起眼的国家自然保护区。以他早期的主人-WilliamPickle而命名。入口不大，还是石子路。总共不超个20个停车位。

美国义工比比皆是。从学校家长会成员，到各式各样的协会，俱乐部，非盈利组织。多如牛毛。说说我参加过的义工。

儿子上小学后，学校每年五月份都有一天，有点[阅读全文]

美国有许多非盈利的组织。这些组织靠民间捐赠。比如教会，私立学校，各式各样的爱动物协会等等。要募捐的电话也是一个接着一个。你一旦认捐，就没完没了。我以前有向我的学校捐款。当时没想到，我第一年捐了一百，第二年来要捐款的信就这涨到一百二十五起了。第三年最低的是一百五了。那年我连着失业两次，就没有按时寄捐款支票。后来我接到学校打来的电话，[阅读全文]

中国送礼和收礼是一门学问。送什么礼，送多少礼，送给谁，都是学问。在国内要记人情帐.记得小时代表家人去送礼金贺邻里结婚.看着大人记账,某某家,礼金多少.别人还要点评礼金是大方或者小气.外公的丧事,几家人在一起那着礼单对帐.送礼的是谁家的人情,这礼金就归谁.因为他们以后要还这人情.。
相对而言，美国送礼就简单多了。办公室同事之间的送礼就更简单了。只[阅读全文]
