While I was waiting for my wife outside her office building,I saw a beggar coming to me.
"I hope he won't ask me for my money,"I thought.
He didn't.He came and sat in front of the bus stop,but it seemed that he didn't have enough money to take the bus."That's a pretty car,"he said after a few minutes,pointing to my car.I gave him a smile and went on cleaning my car.He sat there quietly as I worked."Do you need my help?"I asked.
"Don't we all?"he said.The three simple words surprised me and I should never forget.I was feeling successful and important,above a beggar in the street,until those three words hit me like a gun.
Don't we all?
I needed help,maybe not for money or a place to sleep,but I needed help.I gave him some money not only enough for a bus fare,but enough to get a warm meal and a place to sleep.Those three little words are true.No matter how much you have,you need help.No matter how little you have,no matter how many problems you have,even without money or a place to sleep,you can give help.

There are many different kinds of disasters around the world.As an adult you know what to do during a disaster,but what about the children?Some adults think it would probably never happen to them,so they don't teach their children what to do.Before it's too late,here are ways to help you prepare your child for a disaster:
Educate:It is always good to let your child know about possible disasters.This doesn't mean children have to live in fear.When teaching them about disasters,keep the conversation positive(积极的)by telling them there is a solution(解决办法)to the disaster.Keep the conversations short,allow for questions and answer honestly.
Prepare:Always be prepared,that is the best advice for children.For example,when preparing for bad weather,get the tools you need,like candles,radios,food,water and medicine.Teach your child what is needed in certain disasters so that they know what is available for them,if ever needed.
Plan:You should always have a plan for you and your child for any dangerous situation.Write out a simple list that they can read.The plan could start with"listen to an adult's advice and/or call 119".
Practice:Once you have got the correct safety tools and worked out the right plan,practice every few months.Practicing what to do during a disaster with your child will help them if the time comes.
Disasters can't be avoided but they can be lessened(减轻)once you are prepared and ready for one.

Tyler was a troublesome student.He sat in the back row.Every time I called him to answer questions,he'd reply with a flip(轻率的)answer.If he got it wrong,he would get very angry.
Usually kids could sit quietly in class.However,Tyler was just loud.One day,Tyler was talking while I was teaching.I said to him,"Tyler,why not join in our discussion instead of having one of your own?"He got up from his chair,pushed it over,and shouted something I can't remember.I sent him to the office and he received a week's out﹣of﹣school punishment.
The week was a wonderful time for me,but when it came to an end,I began to feel worried.So I came up with a plan.
On the day of his return,I told him I wanted to start over with him.If he felt like he was going to lose control in class,he could step outside the door for a moment.
From then on,Tyler was a changed student in my classroom.In fact he was a smart child and he even stopped a fight between two students one day.And he never used the privilege(特权)to leave the class for a moment.I believe that just letting him decide for himself made all the difference.
When the year was over,he wrote me a thank﹣you note about how good the year had been for him.I still have it today and find it very moving to reread when I get stressed about teaching.
