It is interesting to observe the way in which children so often react against their parents’ ideas, while at the same time 36 their parent’s characteristics. This is to say, the children grow up to have different 37 from their parents, yet to have 38 personalities. There is a 39 going on in the toy world at present over 40 children should be encouraged to have war toys. I do not see any 41 in forbidding them when I think of the 42 of my friend Henry.
Henry is the son of strict parents who were against war. He was never 43 toy soldiers or guns as a 44.
Henry 45 and went into the army, becoming a first-class soldier and 46 all sorts of honors in the army. In that way he became the 47 of what his parents might have 48 of their son. And yet there is a gentleness about Henry which shows a 49 personality. His sympathies(同情) which I can see must have come from his 50. 51 doing things differently from our parents, a lot of the 52 gets passed on.
Parents have to 53 their children what they believe to be right; but it is not much your ideas that the children 54 your example. Perhaps the best way to teach one’s child gentleness is not to forbid toy guns, but to be 55 in one’s own everyday life.

I work in a company in India which has branches in Germany and the UK，so I take business trips to these places．We have a tradition at the company that anybody coming back to India from a foreign country gets for all the other members of the company．Naturally the chocolates are finished in no time because everyone them and tries to get as many as possible．
I that the housekeeping staff members never had the chance to get even a single chocolate maybe because they were not as quick as others to take the chocolates．I felt it was to them．
Recently, I came back to India from Munich and I had a lot of chocolates for them．I met one of the housekeeping staff members called Babu．I gave him a packet of chocolates and told him to distribute(分发)them in his department．His face lit up with joy and thanked me again and again，which made me very happy．
But the didn’t end here．The best part of it was that Babu actually distributed the chocolates to in the company equally instead of just distributing them among members in his ．So it was so touching for me to see this.
I find it really hard to why we，who have the money to buy chocolates and other goodies，do not feel like but just think about how to get more． ，Babu，who earns only just about enough to raise his family, was so generous and did not even one extra chocolate for himself．I want to request all of us learn from Babu for being so and caring!
