新概念雙語：9歲天使喂飽所有流浪漢并為他們造房

Hailey Ford， a 9-year-old girl from Bremerton， Washington， is hard at work building 11 small homes for the homeless.

來自華盛頓洲布雷默頓的9歲小女孩海麗 ·福特努力勞作，為無家可歸的流浪漢們造了11間小房子。

She has been putting in weeks of work on the shelters， drilling down bases， installing windows and cutting insulation.“It just doesn‘t seem right that there are homeless people，” Hailey told KING 5 News. “I think everyone should have a place to live.”

一連好幾個禮拜她都一直在建造著這些庇護所，打地基，安窗戶，裁隔板。“現(xiàn)在還有無家可歸的人，這說不過去啊，”海麗告訴KING 5 News，“我認為每一個人都應該有住的地方。”

Hailey has received a grant for the homes， which will be put in the town‘s permanent Tent City and be open to the homeless later this year.

海麗日前已經收到了一筆用于建造這些房子的款項，這些房子將會建在鎮(zhèn)上永久的帳篷城，預計今年晚些時候就可以對流浪漢開放。

She got the idea after meeting a homeless man named Edward on the street while out shopping for groceries with her mother.They gave the man a sandwich， but Hailey got to thinking about how she could do more and continue providing food to the needy， so she set up Hailey‘s Harvest， a garden with its own Facebook page， to grow vegetables.

海麗有一天跟媽媽一起出去采購時看到一個名叫愛德華的流浪漢在街上游蕩，此后她便有了這個想法。他們給這個流浪漢一個三明治吃，但海麗想的是她要怎樣才能為有需要的人做得更多，怎樣才能一直給他們吃的，于是她便創(chuàng)立了“海麗的豐收園”，并在這個菜園里種植蔬菜。這個菜園還有自己的臉書頁面。

“I said sure， thinking it would last a week. It’s been four years and she still delivers veggies to the homeless every week，” her mom， Miranda， told nonprofit Together Rising.

海麗的母親米蘭達告訴非營利性機構Together Rising：“我當時很肯定地說，她的這個事業(yè)不會超過一個禮拜?？墒乾F(xiàn)在已經四年了，海麗還是每個禮拜都會送蔬菜給無家可歸的人。”

Hailey soon branched out into building， and has been providing updates on her progress with the shelters， along with photos of herself hard at work.

海麗很快將其事業(yè)擴展到房屋領域，并且在臉書上一直更新其庇護所建設過程中的照片，附帶自己努力工作的照片。
