One day, a poor boy who was selling things from door to door found that he only has a cent(美分) left. He was so hungry that he decided to ask for a meal at the nex t house.

     However, he just asked for a glass of water when a beautiful young woman opened the door. She though he looked hungry, so she brought him a lager glass milk. He drank in slowly, and then asked, “How much do I owe (欠) you”

“You don't owe me anything.” she replied, “Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness.”

     Years later the women needed an operation(手术). The local doctors could do nothing. The finally sent her to a big city. Dr. Milton, who was famous, was called in for the consultation (会诊). When he heard the name of the town she cam form, he went to see her. He recognized  (认出) her at one. At the same time, he made his decision to try his best to save her life.

After hard work, the operation was successful. Dr. Milton asked the nurse to pass the final bill to him. He wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to the patient's room. She was afraid to open it because she thought it would cost all her money. To her surprise, she saw there words written by Dr. Milton: “Paid in full with a glass of milk.”

     Tears ran out of her eyes as she said silently, “Thank you. Love has spread through human hears and hands.”

Unfortunately, three men died in a car accident. Soon they found themselves at the gate of heaven and saw God. Before getting in, God asked each of them the same question. If they could answer the question perfectly, they would be allowed to get into the heaven.

    "I'm sorry for your death," said God. "But when you are in your casket(棺材)and your friends and family are standing beside you, what would you like to hear them say about you?"

    Afraid of being refused, the three men were nervous. They thought for a while.

    The first man said, "I would like to hear them say that I was a great doctor of my time, and a great father to my children." Hearing this, God let him in.

    The second man said. "I would like to hear them say that I was a wonderful husband and school teacher who made a great difference to children." God agreed and let him in too.

      Then it was the last man's turn. He looked anxious and replied, "God, I have lots of things to do for my family and the world. So I would like to hear them say, 'Look! He's moving!' "

    It was summer. A duck was sitting on many eggs in her house. Her little ducks were going to come to the world. One little duck after another came out from the eggs. The last baby was big and ugly. His brothers and sisters weren't willing to play with him because he was too ugly. Even his mother hated him too. And the girl who fed them kicked him.

    The poor little duck was so sad that he ran away from home in the winter. On his way, a big dog appeared, but the dog did not come close to him. "Oh, I am so ugly that even the dog won't bite me." the duck said to himself.

A kind farmer took him home when the weather got colder. He stayed there for a whole winter and left when the spring came.

    One day, he met three beautiful white swans (天鹅) when he was swimming in a lake. They swam toward him. He was afraid to make friends with them. But what did he see in the clear water? He was no longer a dark grey ugly duck. He was a beautiful swan himself. How amazing! He never dreamed that he could be so beautiful.

Respecting teachers has always been a tradition in China. Once there was a man who wanted to learn from a famous philosopher(哲学家). One day, he and his schoolmates had different opinions on a question. To get a 1 answer, he went to visit the philosopher. In front of the door of the philosopher's house, 2 , the guarding kid told him that the philosopher was meditating(冥想) in his room and asked the man to go back. He 3 to leave, so the little boy left him alone and went in.

After a while, it began to snow 4 . The little boy came out again and reminded the man that the philosopher might spend the whole afternoon meditating. He invited the man to 5 himself in the house to avoid the wind and snow. But the man kept standing in the snow and waiting outside in order that he could ask the philosopher's 6 on the question.

As soon as the philosopher finished meditating, the boy reported that the man was waiting outside. When 7 this, the philosopher came out to see the man. When the door was opened, everyone was 8 . The snow was more than a foot deep, but the man stood still. 9 moving his feet." Young man, why are you so silly? You could have come again someday!" The philosopher took the man to the room at once.

" As a student … if I want to learn from the teacher... I should ... of course ... respectfully wait outside..." said the man, shaking with cold.

The philosopher was very happy and accepted the man as his student because of his politeness and effort to learn. He taught the man all his philosophical thoughts. That made a big 10 to the man's life. Later, the man really learned a lot and made great contributions(贡献) to his country.

After traveling over 18 hours, we finally arrived at Baige Primary School in Yunnan Province. We came here to be volunteer teachers during the summer holiday. Located in the mountains, the school had over 400 children aged from 6 to 13 but only four teachers. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} To enrich their lessons, we wanted to introduce different courses. 

{#blank#}2{#/blank#} Before starting my first class, I spent several days reviewing key points and practicing often. In my first class, I poured out everything I had learned. However, the students weren't interested and didn't act well in my class. 

 After that, I changed my teaching plan. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} For example, when I taught the culture in the Tang Dynasty, I began the class with stories from Journey to the West. This time the students actively took part in the discussion. Even after class, some of them were still talking about what they had learned in the lesson. 

I knew that I had succeeded. Thanks to my teaching style, the students easily understood and remembered the history. History class was not boring to them anymore. 

After classes, we spent most of our time talking and playing games with the kids. Because of the location of the mountains, many children never went out. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} We often told fun stories from the cities and encouraged students to study hard and visit these cities by themselves in the future. 

It was an unforgettable experience. We felt proud that we could enlighten(启发) the kids and bring joy to these young minds.
