I saw the cleaning woman every day. She is short and about 60 years old. She has dark hair. But 28 would I know her name? I have 29 talked with her before. In fact, I’ve never even thought about talking to her! I stared at (盯着) my paper and started to feel rather guilty (惭愧的). Finally, I handed in my paper 30 writing the answer to the last question.
Before the class ended, one student 31 the teacher if the last question would count (计入) into our grade. “In your life,” the teacher said, “you will meet many people. All are 32 . They deserve (值得) your attention (注意) and care, even if all you do is just smiling and saying hello.”
I’ll never 33 that lesson. Everyone deserves our attention and we should try to get to know all the people who work and live around us. That was the most important 34 of my life. Later that day, I 35 that the cleaning woman’s name was Dorothy.

Last summer a snowstorm hit a small town nearby. I saw, in the local newspaper, a picture of a young woman, a little boy and a younger standing in front of a totally destroyed(摧毁的) house, eyes wide open with fear. I noticed their clothing closely matched ours. This would be a good chance to teach my children to help those unlucky ones.
I their situation to my seven-year-old twins, Brad and Martin, and encouraged the boys to donate some of their less favorite toys. My little daughter, Meghan, quietly when the boys piled up the old toys. After a while, Meghan walked up with Lucy, her much-loved doll, hugged tightly(紧紧抱在) in her arms. She put her round little into Lucy’s, giving her a final kiss, and then put her down on top of the others. “Oh, honey”, I said, “you don’t have to give Lucy. You love her so much.”
Meghan nodded, trying to hold back her tears(眼泪). “Lucy makes me happy, Mummy. Maybe she’ll make that little girl happy, too.”
The boys watched in surprise as their baby sister put Lucy in the . When I stared(凝视) at Meghan, thinking over my donation, they went, without a word, to their room and both with their loved items. Martin thought for a short while, then looked over at Meghan and put his model car next to Lucy. Amazed, I took my old jacket out of the box, and put in it a new one I had bought the week before, hoping the young woman would it as much.
Anyone can give away what they no longer require, but true generosity is giving what you . I, who had meant to teach, was taught.
