Ten years ago,when I was in high school,Mrs.While was my language teacher.One day at lunch time,I was about to eat my cold fish sandwich and she suddenly asked me if she could buy my lunch from me.She explained that I could use the money to buy a hot lunch from the cafeteria(食堂).I was very pleased.I had never thought of going to the cafeteria to buy my lunch like other students.The food at the cafeteria was too expensive for my family.
Kids always complained about the cafeteria food but I really wanted to buy it.When we finished lunch that day,she told me that she was a Catholic and Catholics don't eat red meat on Fridays﹣they eat fish on Fridays.After that,every Friday Mrs.White bought my fish sandwich and with the money I could buy a hot lunch from the cafeteria.
One year later,I learned from a classmate that Mrs.White was not a Catholic and her family was not rich.She bought my cold sandwich because she saw a little girl that was excited to have a hot lunch.She wanted to help me!I couldn't help crying.I will never forget her kind heart.I will remember my dear Mrs.White all my life.

The teacher asked carefully,"How did you get the scar on your face?"
The mother answered,"When my son was a baby,he was in a room,and the room caught fire.Everyone was too afraid to come in,so I went in.When I was running to his bed,I saw a piece of wood coming down and I placed myself over him trying to protect him.I was senseless:but luckily,the fireman came in and saved both of us."She touched the scar of her face."This scar will be lasting,but to this day,I have never regretted what I did."
At this point,the little boy came out running toward his mother with tears in his eyes.He held his mother in his arms.
