On a cold December morning, my mother and I were walking home from pizza store. We were served
warmly and equipped with the video we had been trying . I was feeling a little tired I was carrying our shopping bags of snacks and the video.
They were so that I decided to throw away some of them. So I started to walk towards the dustbin when I noticed a poor man stepping out of the restaurant in front of us. He held a paper bag with his dirty hand. He headed for another nearby dustbin and started looking something.
I suddenly felt very upset. I know this man would take all he could get, so I walked up to him and handed the drink and some snacks to him. The man, with lines on his face and wrinkles(皱纹) on his forehead, looked up in and took what I gave him.
A huge smile spread across his face and this made feel indescribable satisfaction(满意). I felt like I couldn’t be happier with myself, but then he said, “Wow, first someone gives me this sandwich, then this drink, and now some tasty food, this is my daughter’s day!”
He thanked me and started off on his bike. I even heard him whistling(吹哨) a song as he
away.
I now understand what is meant by the saying “Giving is getting”. Everyone in the world needs help, everyone can help and everyone will be helped by something kind.
The image(图像) of that man’s happiness caused by my small gift appears in my mind every time I have the chance to do something nice.

Dad lost his job after arguing(争吵) with the boss, and when Christmas came that year, we had no money at all. On Christmas Eve, Dad took me out into the park. I had a blanket(毛毯) wrapped(卷绕) around me, so I offered to share with Dad, but he said no thanks. We looked at the sky. Those shining stars were one of the treats for people like us who lived out in the wildness(荒凉). Rich city people, he’d say, live in fantastic flats, but their air was so polluted(污染的) that they could not even see the stars.
“ out your favorite star.” Dad said that night. He told me I could have it for keeping. He said it was my Christmas present. “You can’t give me a star,” I said, “Nobody the stars.”
“Right,” Dad said, “But you can suppose it is yours. And when you do that, it is yours.”
I my head, looked at the stars, and tried to figure out(断定) which was the best one. Then, I found one.
“I that one.” I said.
Dad smiled. “That’s Venus(金星),” he said, “Venus was only a planet. She looked bigger and brighter because she was much than the stars. Poor old Venus didn’t even make her own light. She shone only from reflected(反射) .”
“I like it anyway,” I said, “I had loved Venus even that Christmas. You could see it in the early evening, and if you got up early, you could still see it in the morning, after all the stars had disappeared.”
Dad said, “Ok, it’s Christmas. I your decision. You can have it if you want.” And he gave me Venus.
We all laughed about the kids who believed in the Santa myth(圣诞传说) and got nothing for Christmas but a bunch(堆) of cheap plastic toys. “Many years later, when all the junk(废物) they got is broken and long forgotten,” Dad said, “you will have your star.”

Autumn is a harvest season but life is uninteresting. The free days always get me . But one day, the sound of a violin flowed into my ears. A young girl, standing in the wind, was in playing her violin.
I had never seen her before. The music was so nice that I listened quietly. Lost in the music, I didn't know that I had been there for so long .But it did not seem to disturb her.
Leaves were still falling. Every day she played the violin in the corner of the building I went downstairs to watch her performance. I was the only listener.
Autumn was nearly over. One day, when I was listening carefully, the sound suddenly To my surprise, the girl came over to me.
“You must like violin.” she said.
“Yes. And you play very well. Why didn’t you continue?” I asked.
Suddenly, a look appeared on her face and I could feel something unusual.
“I came here to see my grandmother, but now I must leave. I once played very badly. It was your listening every day that me.” she said.

I had always cared about sick children and tried to help them. But when my little grandson received third degree burns, I learned first-hand how a loving adult feels when his/her child is suffering and he/she can’t take the pain away. This experience me to feel sorry for parents with sick children.
One mom told me that she like running into the street and screaming, “My child is sick. Would somebody please help us?” It breaks my that these parents are so anxiously(忧虑地) searching for someone to care and help them the hard times of watching their helpless child suffer. So I decided to do something to help them.
Two years ago, I almost lost my eyesight. Luckily, I regained(恢复) some eyesight, but I was no longer able to work. I had a lot of time. At first, I thought that my life was because I couldn’t do any of the things I used to do. I believed that my life had no purpose and I was no to anybody anymore. I began to be interested in surfing the Internet for information.
One day I received several emails asking for help for sick children. I decided to post their stories and pictures on a webpage. What began as a has grown into a fulltime job I enjoy doing every day. Since my website was built, I’ve received tens of emails from worried parents asking me to put their child’s story online. And over 325 volunteers have me to send children “happy mail” without being paid.

The story was a true one and still moved me deeply. Thirty years ago，I got to know a 36 lady named Rose. She had no kids and lived alone. 37 I went to visit her, I always took Rose some coffee and food. One day she said she 38 me to have hunch.
We walked from my work place to a little restaurant on David Street. 39 the way, I began to worry: I knew that she had no money, but if I offered(提供) to 40 the lunch，I was afraid I would hurt her.
There were many people in the 41 and all of them were happy. Rose told me to sit and drink coffee by the window. Then she went to 42 in the kitchen. After about 20 minutes, she came out and sat with me. She just paid for one meal and we started to 43 the delicious food together. She told 44 that the restaurant let people work for a meal if they had no money, or would give them a free meal if they were not able to work. To my surprise, she also explained that the workers who were working there were all 45 .
I 46 remember the beautiful afternoon I shared with Rose. 47 we had a meal together only once, it was paid by Rose's work. The weather was 48 and bright, and everyone's smile was warm and bright as well.
I’m still thinking that life cannot be easy to us, but we can still do 49 for our friends and neighbors. The world will be 50 if everybody would like to share happiness with others. It will never be dark if there is a light in everyone's heart.
