When I was 19 years old, I was at a dance club. It was a very cold night. As my friend and I were walking to my car, a man walked up to us. Behind him was a woman pushing a *stroller with a child inside. The child had a jacket on but it wasn’t *zipped. The man began to tell us that he wanted to borrow some money for the night to get his wife and kid into a hotel …out of the cold. He had a job but no place to live and was waiting for his first *paycheck. He said he could get our address and send the money back to us.
My friend reached into his pocket to give this man a $20 bill. As the man was holding his hand out to take the money. I put my hand on my friend’s hand and said, “Can I talk to you for a minute?”
I told him about how my mother works in Seattle and every day people ask her for money. She said they make more money than she does, simply by *begging for money. These people were scamming those with soft hearts. And if they were truly worried about their child, they would have at least zipped his jacket or covered him with his *blanket.
My friend said “Michelle，I know there are people that take advantage of (占便宜)others. I also know there are people that are one paycheck away from being homeless. If I give money to 10 people and only one of them really needs it and uses it for the right thing, it is *worth it.”
I am now 37 years old. But I do remember that the experience changed the way I look at different situations.

| C．Look with pity instead of only thinking someone might be telling a lie. |
| D．The homeless need love rather than money. |
Have you ever stayed in a hotel? Most Chinese hotels often provide *guests with things like * disposable toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and slippers. Many guests like the idea because they don't have to bring their own. It’s convenient for them to travel during their traveling .But, if you travel to Beijing, remember to bring your own things. Starting from June, some hotels in Beijing will no longer provide guests with these disposables. They want to ask people to use fewer disposable things.
Many disposable things are made of *plastic. People throw them away after only using them once. It is a waste of natural *resources and is very bad for the *environment. Do you know, one Chinese person makes as much as 400kg of waste a year! Most of that waste comes from dispos -able things. In Beijing, people throw away about 19,000 *tons of plastic bags and 1,320 tons of plastic lunch bowls every year! Plastic can take between 100 and 400 years to break down. So the less plastic we throw out, the better. So, wherever you travel, bring your own things and use them again and again.
Back at home and school, you can also do something to make our world a better place. Try to do these things in your daily life. Use cloth shopping bags, not plastic ones. After using a plastic bag, wash it out and let it dry. Then you can use it over and over again. Do not use paper cups. At your school dining hall, use your own bowl and chopsticks instead of disposable ones.
