"We're going to move," Jimmy said to Mr. James，her teacher, with tears(眼泪) in her eyes. "Dad lost his job and now we don't have enough money to live in our house." Pam was walking by and just heard Jimmy's talk with Mr.James.

　　In the lunchroom Pam met Carol and said, "I've got something to tell you about Jimmy." As she started to tell Carol about Jimmy's dad, several other classmates stopped to listen. Pam felt bad telling what she had heard but she went on anyway.

　　After school, Pam saw some of her classmates talking to Jimmy. "Where does your dad work?" one of the boys asked. Jimmy's face turned red. She left without answering. Pam felt terrible, because she didn't mean to hurt Jimmy. And she hadn't thought that some of the classmates would make jokes and laugh at Jimmy about her father's losing the job. Pam didn't know what she could do to help Jimmy.

We’re all nice to our friends and family members. When they are in need, we help them. If they ask for something, we give it to them.

We should also be kind and polite to strangers. How can we do that? It’s easy. If a man drops something, pick it up for him. If a woman is carrying a bag with both hands, open the door for her. When people want to cross the street, stop your bicycle, motorcycle, or car and let them cross.

In many big cities, people on the street are rude to each other. They walk around with serious expressions on their faces. Car drivers don’t stop for people crossing the street.

All of these things affect the quality of life in our cities. We need to try harder to treat each other better, like part of a big community. That way, big cities can be like big neighborhoods, with people treating each other like friends and neighbors.

If we can be kind to just a few more people a day, more and more people will be nice to each other. Our cities and towns will be better places. Then everyone will be like one big family.
