All of us can give others a hand as long as we are willing to do so. Actually, there are some people doing kind things all the time. Spreading kindness, one good deed at a time, is Karla Gibson's mission. “I wish everyone could join me. There are so many  1  things going on in the world; I mean every day,” said Karla.

       Karla had the  2  and sense of duty in December of 2013. The single mother of three said she tended to get down around the holidays, so she  3  to do something to cheer others up. She started a Facebook page and  4  her good deeds each day, from feeding the homeless to giving Easter gifts to the incarcerated (囚犯). She hoped to  5  others.

     “We have to do something. Our  6   can make a difference in someone's day. You   7  know when someone might be having their worst day, and then something like buying them a coffee can change their whole attitude,” Karla  8  .

Karla's greatest  9 so far had to do with coffee. On September 27th, Karla's birthday, she went to her local Starbucks and gave the 10  $127 to pay for other people's drinks. She sat at the end of the drive-thru holding a  11  that read, “Have a great day.” She ended up  12  about 23 customers. “It was really fun. It was  13 one of the best birthdays ever,” she said. Her kindness that day didn't go  14 . One couple was so grateful that they surprised her with flowers and balloons to show their 15.

Karla's acts of kindness have become a 16 affair. Her two sons are always 17 others. “Sometimes I'll ask Kyle, ‘So, did you do anything extra nice today?' and he's like ‘Somebody 18 something in the hallway and I picked it up' or ‘I held the door for someone', that kind of thing,” said Karla.

      It's because of Mom that the boys think it's  19  to give a hand to others. “I think it's a great idea of hers. It's always nice to help someone out  20  they really need it,” said Karla's 15-year-old son Chad.

    It was a cold winter's afternoon, Robert stopped for a moment as he crossed the bridge and looked down at the river below. There were hardly any 1 on the river. Near the bridge, however, almost  2  below, there was a small canoe（独木舟）, with a boy in it. He was not wearing many clothes, Robert 3 . He shivered（打了个寒颤）and walked on.

     4  he heard a cry. “Help! Help!” The cry came from the river. Robert looked down. The boy was  5   the water and his canoe was floating away, “Help! Help!” he called again.

    Robert was a good  6 . Taking off his clothes, he dived into the river. The 7  water made him tremble all over,  8 in a few seconds he reached the9. “Don't be afraid,” he said and started to swim towards the river bank,10 the boy with him. But at that 11 he noticed a large motor boat under the bridge. There were several people on the boat, all 12   in his direction. Robert 13 to swim towards the boat.

    “Give me a hand,” he shouted 14he got near the boat. He15  into a row of faces. “It's funny,” he thought. “They look so 16 .” Silently they helped the boy into the boat and 17  him in a blanket. But they did not move to 18  Robert.

    “Aren't you going to pull me 19  too?” Robert asked.

    “You!” said one of the men. Robert noticed that he was standing next to a large 20 . “You! Why, we were making a film and you spoiled a whole afternoon's work! You can stay in the water.”

    For fans of Emma Watson, it's quite exciting that she perfectly plays the role of Belle in Disney's fantasy film Beauty and the Beast. In most fairy tales, it's the woman who 1her prince to rescue her from danger, but in this movie, Belle, independent and active, with 2and kindness, saves her love and 3him from a fearsome beast back into a charming prince.

    Watson, in real life, is 4 with her famous roles. She is 5 for fighting for equality for women all over the world and is always proud of her feminist（女权主义）thoughts. Actually, her early 6 affected her decision to be so strong in her.7. She claimed in one speech she 8 on gender（性别）equality: At age 8, she was called “bossy” by boys only because she, a girl, wanted to direct plays. She then started to focus on gender equality. Afterward, her enthusiastic and wise public speeches have 9 many miserable women, for which she 10 credit.

    On March 8, Watson 11 a live Question and Answer about gender equality for the UN's HeForShe campaign. During the12, Watson emphasized that gender equality doesn't just 13 women. “I've got four brothers. Gender equality is having an effect on them just as 14 as me. My brother once said he just couldn't 15 some of his male friends, 16the rude way they talk about girls.”

    When Watson was17as a UN Women Goodwill Ambassador, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon joked that he hoped Watson used her magic stick to 18 violence against women. And the19 young woman is doing and will 20to do so.

    I lifted my wet woollen gloves to my face and wiped the snowflakes from my eyes. I could not feel my nose and my 1 formed a thick fog in the air. The biting wind was making me 2 I was fed up! I didn't want to be here. I wanted to go home. But Mum and Dad had 3 me to go for a Sunday afternoon walk in the park. I could see my 4 in the snowy path, like a trail of breadcrumbs(一串面包屑) in the forest showing me the way 5. I stopped and listened to my 6. I could 7 the wind crying like a homeless dog hungry for a delicious 8. The once-green tree 9, which used to wave gently in the breeze, had become bare, and the grass was covered with a 10 blanket of fresh snow. Then I saw a broken spider's web shining golden beneath a pale sun. My breath was like silky soft 11 floating up into the freezing cold air.

    Suddenly there was Mum, 12 handing me a big cup of hot chocolate. Her big smile immediately 13 my heart.

    "Here you are, Jo. This will keep you 14," she said as she placed a comforting arm around my shoulders and 15 her cheek against mine.

    I slowly took a mouthful of the hot 16 and felt it slowly dripping down my throat like lava(熔岩) 17down a mountainside. My wet woollen gloves were now warm, not 18. My breath warmed, and I was 19fed up or cold. I was happy and 20.

    He really did look like a tourist, with a camera around his neck and a bottle of sunscreen sticking out of his bag. The fat man sat on the terrace (草坪), drinking lemonade, a little bit each time, and 1 to look at a smooth and shiny cruise brochure. His sunglasses2 his eyes, but I knew he wasn't looking at the brochure: he hadn't turned a 3 for the last ten minutes.

    As I brought him what he had ordered, he coughed up a “thank you” and looked at me 4. I tried not to stare at the tiny scar across his left eyebrow.

I walked back inside with my 5 tray (托盘), shaking my head. He looked 6 but I couldn't quite place him.

    Then it 7 me. The car accident. The 8 stranger who helped me out of my smashed car, 9 before it exploded. I 10 back to his table.

    He was gone.

    I moved his saucer and found his tip, along with a 11.

    I am deeply 12 to you. The night of your car accident, I was on my way to 13 a jewelry store. Saving your 14 brought things back in perspective (看法).I now live an honest life, thanks to you. God bless you! Mr. D.

    I trembled. The night of my car accident, I was 15 for an interview in a shady dance club. Seeing human kindness through his 16 gesture turned my life around and brought17 back into my life.

    I 18 the tip he left. Among the one-dollar notes was a 100-dollar note with a pen mark 19 “In God We Trust”, which first appeared on paper money in 1957.

    I said a silent 20 for him and got back to work, smiling.

    On a cold winter evening, I was walking home alone, when suddenly came screams (呼喊声) from behind some tress. 1, I slowed down to listen, and 2 that what I was hearing were the sounds of a fight. A woman was being attack (袭击) not far from where I 3.

    "Should I go to help her?" I thought. I was worried about my own 4, and I regretted having suddenly decided to take a new way home that night. "What if I am 5 too? Shouldn't I just 6 to the nearest phone and call the police?" But already the girl's 7were growing weaker. I knew it was time for me to act fast because I could not 8 the life of this unknown woman, 9 it meant risking my own life.

    I am not a 10 man. I didn't know where I found the 11 and physical strength (体力), but once I had finally 12 to help the girl, I changed suddenly. I ran behind the bushes and 13 the attacker off the woman. Struggling, we fell to the ground, where we fought for a few minutes 14 the man jumped up and ran away.

    15 heavily, I came up to the girl, who was crying. In the 16, I could not see her clearly, but I could certainly 17 her shock. Not wanting to frighten her any further, I spoke to her from a distance.

    "It's OK," I said 18. "The man ran away. You're safe now." There was a long stop and then I heard the words, said in both wonder and 19. "Dad, is that you?" And then, from behind the tree, stepped my youngest 20, Katherine.
