My family went to a restaurant for dinner one night. When we were walking to the restaurant from our car, a girl about my age and her mother c{#blank#}1{#/blank#} towards us. They asked if we had any m{#blank#}2{#/blank#}. My mum asked where they were l{#blank#}3{#/blank#}. The girl said there were six of them staying in an o{#blank#}4{#/blank#} black car.  My mum gave them a few dollars.  Then she sent me inside the restaurant w{#blank#}5{#/blank#} my dad and my three sisters. H{#blank#}6{#/blank#}, my mum didn't come. Later, I found out that she had gone h{#blank#}7{#/blank#} and put all the food in our cupboard into a few bags. Then she brought the food over to the car and gave the bags to the poor f{#blank#}8{#/blank#}. I wasn't there when that part happened, yet I could i{#blank#}9{#/blank#} the joy on their faces. After painting this picture in my mind, I understood w{#blank#}10{#/blank#} my mum had done what she did that night. I will never forget this lesson in kindness from my mum.

    "Make-A-Wish" is one of the world's most well-known charities. It makes wishes come true for children who have s{#blank#}1{#/blank#} illnesses. It gives them hope and helps them forget about their h{#blank#}2{#/blank#} problems.

    It s{#blank#}3{#/blank#} in 1980 in Phoenix, Arizona. Christopher was a 7-year-old boy who was very sick. He always dreamed of becoming a p{#blank#}4{#/blank#} to fly in the sky. They gave Christopher a tour of the city in a police helicopter(直升飞机) and b{#blank#}5{#/blank#} a space helmet for him.

    There are four kinds of wishes children usually have:

    I wish to go. Children usually want to visit some p{#blank#}6{#/blank#} of interest, like the Statue of Liberty.

    I wish to meet. Children sometimes want to meet their f{#blank#}7{#/blank#} film stars or sports players.

    I wish to be. Some children wish to become doctors to help people who don't have money for m{#blank#}8{#/blank#} treatment.

    I wish to have. Some children want to have a computer, a bike or many other things. L{#blank#}9{#/blank#} for them, they can get what they want from the charity.

    Let's hope more wishes will come true in the f{#blank#}10{#/blank#}. People who work in the charity always try for the best. Will you be one of them?
