For the past three months，I have been moonlighting（兼職） as a tea lady.A few weeks into lockdown and at the height of the COVID-19 crisis，my father's care home had become desperately understaffed.So I volunteered my services.
   I will admit that I also wanted to keep an eye on my father：Ever since he was diagnosed with dementia（癡呆），I had become concerned about his well-being.So I turned up，put on：plastic apron and began wheeling a teapot around the ground floor.
   It was a peculiar kind of job at first，I saw how the carers were putting themselves on the line every day.And how do you ask a dementia patient who has lost almost all their powers of speech and hearing how many sugars they want in their tea？I would often come away sweating and saddened.The home lost a lot of patients to COVID-19 in a short span of time and seeing the suddenly empty beds was shocking.
   But it was also-surprisingly-good fun.There were jokes shared by carers and the stories the elderly residents told.The place grew on me until it became the highlight of my day.I looked forward to seeing the old lady who would say"Thank you"and blow me a kiss every time I left her a cup of tea.Another said he'd started painting later in life and now his amazing work hung all around his room.And there was a former university lecturer，who had researched nursing and never left a crossword unfinished.
   The figures I had passed so often taught me that sitting by a sunny window drinking a cup of warm tea hold its value.I have read about the meditative（冥想的） effects of running and I found the same absorbing feeling in the ritual of making tea.It is simple，wholesome，and brings calmness.To me，this has been lockdown's greatest gift.

3．I study English literature at university and have always been proud of Britain's literary heritage（文學(xué)遺產(chǎn)）．Some British authors that you may have heard of are Charles Dickens and Jane Austen．These writers are famous all over the world because their books have been translated into many different languages．In the UK，their novels are celebrated as some of the best that have ever been written．We say that these novels are "classic" because they are still read and enjoyed years after their publication．
