I was walking down the road one day when my phone rang. voice on the other end spoke to me, “Dad, please come back soon. I miss you so much!” I thought that it was a wrong number. A short while later, the call came once again, so I rudely, “You’ve called the wrong number!” and then hung up.
During the days, I often got the call. But I didn’t care much about it. Then one day she kept calling me, I didn’t answer. Finally I answered the phone and heard a weak voice, “Dad, please come back. I miss you so much! Dad, I’m in so much ! Mom said you were too busy to take care of me. But, dad, please me again, OK?” It was to refuse the innocent(天真的, 无邪的) ask. I made a kiss on the phone and heard the weak voice say, “Thank you…Dad, I am so…happy, so…happy….”
Shortly after this, I became curious(好奇）about had been on the other end of my phone. So I called back, and a woman answered, “Sorry, sir. I am really sorry to you. My daughter has had bone cancer(癌症) since she was born. And her father…died in a car two weeks ago. I didn’t want to tell her the news. Poor baby. When she couldn’t the painful chemotherapy(化疗), she would cry for her dad because her dad encouraged(鼓励) her. I really don’t know what to do, so I gave her a random(随意的) phone number…”
“How is your daughter now?” I couldn’t wait to ask.
“She has died. You must have her on the phone, because she died with a smile, tightly (紧紧地) holding the cell phone….” Tears full of my eyes….

It’s important for everyone to have a good neighbour. In China, there is a saying that a distant relative is not as good as a near neighbor(远亲不如近邻). I agree with it 1 from my experience (经历), I think it’s 2 for each one to have a good neighbor.
First, a good neighbour is a good friend. One winter day when our family moved to a new house, our neighborhood helped us to 3 some furniture(家具) and told us something 4 this neighbourhood. They invited all members of 5 family to their home and have a hot drink. They made us 6 comfortable here.
Next, a good neighbor is a good relative(亲戚).When we travel, our neighbors 7 take care of our house and keep the letters for us. When they 8 , we also help them as they do. In the new neighborhood, we always 9 each other. We are just like good relatives.
Finally, I get a very important 10 from our neighbours that having a good neighbour is being a good neighbor yourself.
