      I was in line waiting to pay. In line there were two people before me. A little boy was buying
some rather strange clothes. He chatted with anyone who was interested in the clothes and soon
we learnt that he was going to a kindergarten (幼兒園) party. He had done a great job of putting
together interesting costumes.
     I noticed that the little boy was paying mostly with change (零錢). It seemed that he had robbed
his pig bank (豬形儲蓄罐) to do this shopping. However, the cashier told him he was short after
counting all the money. The boy thought for a moment and said, "Please keep the shirt and I will
come back with more money. "
     It was clear that he had already used all the money he had and he was $ 8. 00 short. The lady
in front of me said, "Well, I could pay half of that. "I told the boy that I could pay the other half.
We dug into our handbags. However, both of us only had ten-dollar bills (紙幣) and we needed the
cashier to get the change for us. Other shoppers began digging into their pockets to find some change.
It was amazing and touching as all these strangers seemed to react (反應(yīng)) with the same mind.
All wanted to be of help. Within minutes the cashier said, "I have too much money." The cashier
didn't need our ten-dollar bills. Then the lady in front of me, who had been the first to offer help,
said, "Wait! I didn't even get a chance to give anything!"
     I smiled at her and said, "You did your share, because it was your idea and you started all this."
The little boy smiled and thanked us. We wished him the best and he left. Ileft with a good feeling.
I had seen the love and goodness of others all around me. The woman in front of me smiled and said,
"It sure feels good to give, doesn't it?" I smiled back and said, "Yes!"

last two years. In fact, it lasted five. During this time, he saw many amazing things. He collected lots of

     Sixteen years ago a boy gave me an important gift.  It was a smile.      
     It was the early autumn of my first year at a middle school, and my old school was far away.  
As a result, no one knew who I was.  I was very lonely, and afraid to make friends with anyone.

anyone about my problems.        
     Then one day, my classmates talked happily with their friends, but I  sat at my desk unhappily as

closer to everyone in my class. The boy with the lucky smile has become my best friend now.
