21、Some people always ask me why I like helping others. I’ll say I’m learning kindness from my father.

One day when I was twelve, I went with my father to his work place. While I was running around, I saw a poor woman with a child in her arms standing outside, crying a lot. She was thin and looked pale. My father went out and asked her to come in. He gave her some water and then asked what was wrong.

The woman said that her husband died months ago and that she didn’t have anyone else in her family who could help her. She did some manual labor for a living. But she was ill those days and was unable to go to work. So she had nothing to eat. While telling the story, she started crying again. My father and I were deeply moved by her story.

We got some food for her and her baby. My father then took them to the nearest hospital, because neither the mother nor the child seemed to be very well. On the way, my father bought her a small bag of flour. He also gave her some money before we left her. The lady was so grateful.

Eight years has passed. I still remember it clearly. My father’s kindness inspires (鼓舞) me all the time.

22、   Lin Wenqian is a girl student. When she was on a busy bus last month, she felt someone touching her. She was so afraid.

Zhou Bin, 12, is a boy. He likes to chat on the Internet. But once a stranger said lots of dirty things to him. Zhou was so surprised!

What can students do when this kind of thing happens? Here is some advice from some teachers and students:

Don’t be afraid. Ask him or her to stop at once. If he or she doesn’t listen, try to turn to others around you and call for help.

Keep calm. Be serious and keep a cool face. Say you don’t like it and show you are angry.

If there is no one around, use clever ways. If you only shout or fight to make them angry, it could make things worse! They may take your life. Find excuses (借口) to run away. Say things like you are waiting for your parents or you want to go to the washroom.
