Bags of Love
Last year, I was assigned to work at an office near my mother’s house, so I stayed with her for a month. During that time, I helped out with the housework and contributed to the groceries.
After less than a week, I started noticing that the groceries were running out pretty quickly — we were always suddenly out of something.【小题1】(wonder) how my mum could consume them so quickly, I began observing her daily routine for two weeks. To my surprise, I found that she would pack a paper bag full of canned goods and head out every morning at about nine. Eventually, I decided to follow her and【小题2】happened truly amazed me. She was taking the food to the refugee camp, in【小题3】she distributed it to children.
I asked around and found out that my mum was very well known in the area. The kids were very friendly with her and even looked up to her as if she were their own mother. Then it hit me —why would she not want to tell me about what she【小题4】(do)? Was she worried about how I would react or that I would stop【小题5】(buy) the groceries if I found out?
When she got home, I told her about my discovery.【小题6】she could react, I gave her a big hug and told her she didn’t need to keep it a secret【小题7】me. She told me that some of the children lived with an older lady in a shelter while others slept on the streets. For years, my mum has been helping out by giving them whatever food she could spare. I was so impressed by【小题8】selfless she was.

Golden Rules of Good Design
What makes good design? Over the years, designers and artists have been trying to【小题1】the essentials of good design. They have found that some sayings can help people understand the ideas of good design. There are four as follows.
Less is more. This saying is associated with the German-born architect Mies van der Rohe. In his Modernist view, beauty lies in simplicity and elegance, and the aim of the designer is to create solutions to problems through the most efficient means. Design should avoid unnecessary【小题2】
More is not a bore. The American-born architect Robert Venturi concluded that if simplicity is done badly, the result is【小题3】design. Post-Modernist designers began to【小题4】with decoration and color again. Product design was heavily influenced by this view and can be seen in kitchen【小题5】such as ovens and kettles.
Fitness for purpose. Successful product design takes into consideration a product’s function, purpose, shape, form, color, and so on. The most important result for the user is that the product does what is【小题6】. For example, think of a(n)【小题7】desk lamp. It needs to be constructed from materials that will stand the heat of the lamp and regular adjustments by the user. It also needs to be stable. Most importantly, it needs to【小题8】light where it is needed.
From follows emotion. This phrase is associated with the German designer Hartmut Esslinger. He believes design must take into【小题9】the sensory side of our nature—sight, smell, touch and taste. These are as important as rational(理性的). When choosing everyday products such as toothpaste, we appreciate a cool-looking device that allows us to easily【小题10】the toothpaste onto our brush.
