    It was Christmas Day. Pappy was working alone fixing an old lantern in the backroom when he heard the ringing of his bell on the shop door. The bell, which produced a uniquely pleasant sound, had been in Pappy's family for over a hundred years. He valued it dearly and enjoyed sharing its song with all who came to his shop. Although the bell hung on the inside of the main door, Pappy had tied a wire to the screen door so that it would ring whether the inner door was open or not. Hearing the bell, he left the backroom to greet his customer.

    “And how can I help you, little lady?” Pappy's voice was joyful.

    “Hello, sir.” The little girl spoke almost in a whisper. She looked at Pappy with her big brown eyes, and then slowly scanned the room in search of something special. Shyly she told him, “I'd like to buy a present, sir.”

    “Well, let's see,” Pappy said, “who is this present for?”

    “My grandpa. It's for my grandpa. But I don't know what to get.”

    Pappy began to make suggestions. “How about a pocket watch? It's in good condition.” The little girl didn't answer. She had walked to the doorway and put her small hand on the door. She shook the door gently to ring the bell. Pappy's face seemed to glow as he saw her smiling with excitement.

    “This is just right,” the little girl said. “Momma says grandpa loves music.”

    Just then, Pappy's expression changed. Fearful of breaking the little girl's heart, he told her, “I'm sorry, Missy. That's not for sale. Maybe your grandpa would like this little radio.”

    The girl looked at the radio, bowed her head, and sadly sighed, “No, I don't think so.”

    In an effort to help her understand, Pappy told her that the bell had been his only companion, for the rest of his family were all gone now, except for his estranged (疏远的) daughter whom he had not seen for nearly a decade.

    Until last year, the saddest thing of my life was that my wife Alice and I had no children. So we always invited all the children in our street to our house for Christmas breakfast.

    Last year, Alice died. I was very sad and decided not to invite the children for Christmas breakfast. But Kathy and Peter, my next door neighbors, asked me to join them for dinner on Christmas Eve.

    As soon as I arrived, Kathy asked me," Do you have any milk at your house?" "Yes," I replied. "If you need some, I'll go and get it right away."

    "Oh, that's OK. Come and sit down* Just give Peter the key and let him get it." said Kathy. Then I soon joined in the children's laughing and running. Before I knew it, Peter came back with a bottle of milk in his hand.

    The smell of the meal filled the room. We sat together and enjoyed the wonderful moment. Time flew between jokes. After a happy dinner, I said goodbye to them. With colorful and beautiful holiday lights shining outside, I headed home.

    When I opened my door, I could hardly believe my eyes.

    Ali and his younger sister, Zahra, lived with their parents in a poor neighborhood. Their mother was very sick and their father was struggling to find a job, and they had only a little money with which to buy food. As they had not paid the rent for several months, the landlord was breathing down their necks(盯着他们).

    One day, Ali took Zahra's shoes to a shoe repairman to be fixed, but he lost them on the way home. It wasn't until he got home that he realized he had lost the shoes. He was afraid that his parents would be angry and disappointed, so he begged his sister to keep it secret. Zahra agreed and the two decided to share Ali's running shoes. Zahra's school hours were in the morning, so she would wear them first. After school, she would rush back and give them to Ali. He could then run to his school, which began in the afternoon. Although he ran as fast as he could, Ali often arrived late and was warned by the school.

    Ali heard about a long distance race that was held for the boys in the city. When he learned that the third prize was a new pair of shoes, he decided to take part. He ran home excitedly and promised his sister that he would win her the new shoes.

    The day of race arrived. Ali had a strong start, but halfway through the race he began to get tired and his legs began to ache. Getting more and more exhausted he thought only of Zahra and his promise to her. Dreaming of the new shoes he would win for his sister gave him strength, and he stayed right behind the two fastest runners, determined to finish third. Suddenly, as the finish line drew near, another runner collided(碰撞) with Ali from behind and he crashed to the ground.

Paragraph 1:

    Ali looked up and saw the other boys rushing ahead.

Paragraph 2:

    Filled with delight, Ali walked home quickly.

Juju was the star dancer at school. She had a smile that would light up the room and movements as if she was creating the music. But when she was away from her high school dance class, she was more quiet, a little bit cautious — something the group of girls in her class noticed. 

In fact, Juju's real name is Julie. Raised up as an orphan (孤儿), she experienced a lack of familial support, which contributed to her sense of loneliness. More often than not, she hid behind the nickname, creating a bright character that covered up the pain she was experiencing. Julie kept schoolmates at a distance but let Juju out when the music was on. Though as an excellent dancer, her biggest regret was that none of her family ever came to watch her performances. She would watch sadly as other students were greeted with flowers and hugs from parents after the performances. 

Observing Julie's closed nature outside of the dance room, Corrina, one of the other dance students, sensed her need for companionship. When she found her at lunchtime sitting alone, Corrina would invite Julie to join her table with other dance kids, including her as a member of their extended "family". At first, they talked about dance and music. As the conversation turned to family, Juju would quickly shift the subject back to dance. 

Despite this initial hesitance, trust between the girls gradually developed, and then a sister-like bond. They started spending more time together, not just in dance-related activities but also in their personal lives. 

As their high school years ended, the closing night performance for graduation was around the corner. While everyone was filled with excitement, Corrina sensed Julie's anxiety as curtain time approached. She knew Julie feared the post-show loneliness of having no family to celebrate with. So she took it upon herself to ensure that Julie didn't feel alone on this important night.

Determined to plan a surprise for Julie as a "family", Corrina gathered other girls.
