My neighbor is a doctor. He and his wife are some of the1people I have ever met. A few years ago, we started this kind of "favor war" where one of us would do something kind for the other, such as2the driveway or building a shed, and next time the other would3to top it with another favor.

    Yesterday morning, it snowed heavily and I remembered he shoveled (铲) my driveway for me. So I took out my shovel and took care of both our driveways and sidewalks because it was my turn to do a favor4. It took a while but I finished it and got into my car for work.

That night I got a5on my door, it was my neighbor. He immediately shook my hands and thanked me for shoveling his driveway and sidewalk, so that he was able to get to work earlier and6a boy.

    "As soon as I started the car early this morning, a call came through that a young boy in our neighborhood was seriously ill.7, my partner and I were only about 2 minutes away, but the closest ambulance 10 minutes," added he. "A young boy got to live his life because you did me the favor."

    It wasn't too much8to shovel a driveway, but what I did got a young boy to see his family again, go back to school again and live his life again.9favor is too small. Even the smallest favor can make the biggest10. One favor will always be followed by another.

Bruce loves music because it makes him feel easy. He is shy, and making friends has been1 for him. That's why his mother asked him to take the2 this year. "You'd better not sit there with your headphones on, "she told him. 

Bruce nodded. But the moment he sat on the bus, he3 his headphones and closed his eyes. He was soon lost in a song of his favorite band, the Blue-Bob. 4 . he sensed someone around him. He opened his eyes and saw a boy from his5 . 

"Hey, Bruce? I'm Mike, "the boy said. *I think we both take the music class. Did I hear6 singing a song by the Blue-Bob just now?"

"Uh, no, "Bruce's face turned red, "That wasn't me. "Mike looked a little7 . Without saying anything, he went away. 

For the next few days, Bruce kept asking himself8 he had lied to Mike. "Maybe he also loves the Blue-Bob. Maybe he was just being9 , "he thought. So when they saw each other on the bus the next day, Bruce managed to10 a smile on his face. 

"Hi, Bruce, "Mike said. "I can hear your11 every day, and you have such a good taste. "Bruce's eyes lit up. "Don't you think the songs are too12 ?""he asked. "Not at all, ""Mike answered. ""1 love songs of the past too. My grandpa is really into music, and he has13 me to sing many of them. "

Bruce listened as Mike talked about his favorite songs. And they shared the head-phones, singing softly along with the music14 Bruce got off at his stop. 

"See you tomorrow!" Mike said. 

Bruce waved goodbye. "I must tell Mom how I15 Mike and we had the best time…with headphones on, "he smiled to himself.
