LaSalle Street Churchs pastor, Laura Truax，told his 320 regular members that the church had recently received a large $ 1. 6 million profit in a real estate deal (房 地产交易） and that she would set aside that amount by 10 percent to divide among her parishioners (教区居民).Each would get a $500 check to do something positive for someone, and someone could be the parishioners themselves. The money came with no conditions attached; parishioners did not have to provide proof of money spent. It just came with the hope that the money would be used for good. LaSalles congregation (集会）is racially and financially diverse; More than 60 percent of members have advanced degrees while about a third live a paycheck-to-paycheck life. Truax had no idea how her experiment would work. She only hoped that it would make her parishioners a part of the giving process and engage them in the church and in their community. So far, her idea seems to be paying off. Checks from LaSalle Street Church have been used to fund everything from swall international projects-including a school in the Himalayas, a health clinic in and an irrigation project in Tanzania-to help local families and friends in trouble. One congregant is helping to fund a skateboarding park in Amman, Jordaa, where he lived for many years. Another is using her money to start a scholarship foundation for local kids. Another has used her money to buy winter clothing for the kids at her daughters school. 1 hoped that they would recognize the power they had to bless others and change somebodys life, Truax told Yahoo News. “I hoped that they would see their connection between their little piece and the bigger thing the church was called to21.

The law went into effect on January 1.California is not the first American state with such a law, but it has the largest of illegal immigrants. More than a million people began to request licenses shortly after the new state law went into effect. Among them was Christian Alvarado. Mr. Alvarado entered the United States from El Salvador. (萨尔瓦多）eight years ago without permission from the U. S. government. Some call such people illegal immigrants Others call them undocumented immigrants. Mr. Alvarado thinks it so exciting，for he has been waiting for the license for a long time. But some are worried that their personal information will be used to find them and deport them. Armando Botello is a spokesman for the California Department of Motor Vehicles，or DMV. He says people should not be afraid, for such information will not be shared. The new licenses are the same as licenses given to citizens except that they have the words Federal Limits Apply. That means the license cannot be used to travel on an airplane or enter a federal building. Ana Garcia, working at the Central American Resource Center，says some illegal immigrants fear those words will be used to abuse them. Civil rights groups say the police and others will not. Dan Schnur，a political scientist at the University of Southern California, said that the main argument against the new law is that it rewards illegal behavior. But Professor Schnur argued that young，white Americans generally support immigration reform, including giving drivers licenses to illegal immigrants. “Its simply because they grew up in a much more multicultural society than their parents or their grandparents did. ” Professor Schnur says he believes the changes in beliefs about illegal immigrants that have taken place in California will spread throughout the United States.25. Why did the new law make Mr. Alvarado excited?A.Because he got his driving lice
