About a week ago, when I was playing basketball at our local park, I noticed a small group of boys picking on a smaller, skinnier boy. They were   1   him names and even   2   him to the ground and kicked dirt in his face.   3   I saw that, I walked over to the group.
I stepped   4   them and the smaller boy, and   5   them politely what this boy had done worthy of   6   they were doing to him. One of the boys replied, "He's weird (古怪的)." At that, I asked one of the boys if he thought his friend was weird, and the   7   was "No". So, I asked another boy what the word '"weird"   8   , and he said, "Different." That was my cue (暗示). I told them that everyone is   9   , and that they all looked just as different to the other boy as he did to them. They all stood   10   for a moment, and then the most   11   thing happened. One of the boys helped the small boy off the ground and then said   12   to him. What's more, he   13   to let him play with them.
I thanked the boy for being so   14   . ①As I looked around, I realized that there were dozens of other people at the park   15   no one else had stopped to help this boy. I felt   16   that the boy was strong enough to stand up against his friends to   17   someone in need. But at the same time I felt sad that   18   else had even taken a second look.
②I hope that my action helped them   19   that they could have made a difference with a little   20   , and maybe next time they will be the ones who choose to help.
