Sally is eighty-six years old. She has no sons   1 daughters. Her husband died ten years ago. But she didn't move into a nursing home. She would like to 2  herself every day.

    Every night she spends two hours  3   kids with math for twenty years. All kids living on her street can get her help without payment(报酬). She was a famous math    4  before she retired(退休) from a middle school.

    She gets up early in the morning, then does sports, goes shopping or helps cleaners   5   the street. And she does these happily.

When the kids come for help, she is always 6   and tries her best. People asked her   7  . She said, “I love it. It makes me happy to help them.”

    She is always happy every day and always says hello to people around her   8 a smile.

    “ I've decided to love everything around me. So I'm happy to do    9. I'm thankful for those kids who come to me for help. Each kid is my   10. I love each day to help them.”she said.

    Really, a good decision decided on what one does in life.

    Every day I can watch a little girl 1 basketball from my kitchen window. One day I asked her why she practised so 2 . She said: “I would like to go to college. The only way is 3  a scholarship(奖学金). I like basketball and I want to be the 4 player in college. My dad told me: ‘If the dream is big enough, the facts don't count.' ” She  5 changed her mind. I watched her through those junior high years and into senior high school.

    One day before she graduated 6 high school, I saw her sitting on the grass 7 . I asked her what was wrong. She told me her coach said she was such a 8 girl that she couldn't be a good basketball player, so she should  9 dreaming about going to college. She was heartbroken and it 10 made me feel sad. Then she smiled and told me her father said that coach was wrong. He did not understand the power of dream. Her father said to her: “If you really want to 11 the scholarship of a good college, nothing but you 12 can stop your dream.”

    The next year, she and her team went to a big game. She 13 by a coach of a famous college team and was offered a scholarship to the 14 basketball team of their college. She was about to get the college education that she had dreamed 15 and worked towards for all those years.

    “If the dream is big enough, the facts don't count.” It is true.

    Several months ago , a couple with a little girl moved in next door to me. The girl seemed too quiet to make any noise, while the parents were always 1her loudly. Whenever we met my new neighbours , I always spoke, but the only 2 I ever got was a hello from the 4-year-old girl.

    I usually go out for breakfast and one day when I returned, they were just coming from their home and the little girl was holding the door open for others. I stayed in the car doing unnecessary things as I wasn't in a 3. The parents were telling her to get into the car immediately. I looked up and saw the little girl was still holding the door open, waiting for 4 .

As a disabled man, I can't hurry at 5 but I hurried as much as I could and thanked her. She was smiling like a lovely angel. I was so 6by her small act of kindness. That afternoon I was shopping and I saw a white bear. I thought of the 7and said to myself. "I believe she would like that" so I bought it.

    The next day there was a knock on the door and it was the little girl and her parents. She was so 8of her bear and thanked me as if I had never been thanked before. The mother and father9thanked me.

    Now when we meet , we all speak, and in a friendly manner I might add. As time passes, I don't hear that shouting as often.10, hardly at all.

    Last night we had about four inches of11. I looked out at my car and wondered 12 I was going to keep my doctor's appointment(约会). When I opened the outside door, there was my car with all the snow cleaned. I can't express how I felt at that moment. The man next door was the only person I knew in the whole building,13when I saw him the next day, I asked him if he was the good man that cleaned my snow. He said 14. He wanted to but his wife said she wanted to do it.

    Isn't it amazing that a 4-year-old girl can change so many things for the better? It is said that good things usually come from 15.
