Five years ago. I went to Shao Xing to visit my cousin. My grandpa had been outside smoking when my aunt called him into the house. He left his 　36 on the front porch（门廊） steps so he could continue smoking it 　 37 he returned.

My cousin was 38 to see what smoking was really like，so he picked up the cigarette，put it in his mouth and puffed(吹) in 39 . Next，he was 　40 his head off. He looked like he was about to throw up，but he stretched his hand out toward me to 　41 me the cigarette. “Come on. Try it.”he said.

I just grabbed the stupid thing out of his hand and smashed it with my 　42 .Then，grandpa returned. “Where’d my cigarette go?” he asked. I just stood there，not wanting to admit what I had done or what my 　43 had done before that. But I knew that this was the moment of truth. I took a deep breath and began to 　44 .

I told my grandpa that I couldn’t 45 believe he would choose to smoke. I was sure he knew how bad it was，so why did he do it? He said he started smoking when he was just a teenager. Now he was so 46 that he couldn’t stop. It was just too hard to 　47 .

Here was an old man，my own grandpa. ，admitting there was something that he couldn’t control that was probably 48 killing him. I stood there in disbelief. dumbfounded(目瞪口呆的). Then I remembered this ad I had seen on TV: There was this lady who was so addicted(有瘾的) to cigarettes that she’d gotten really sick. Doctors had to 49 a hole in her throat for her to 50 ，and she was still smoking through the hole! It was the most disgusting thing I’ve ever seen. Standing in front of my grandpa，I began to cry. 　51 that happened to him?

Ever since that day， my grandpa has 52 　on cigarettes. I know one thing: I want to live a long time. I don’t want to be 　53 or out of control of my life the way 　54 that lady was. I’ll never smoke. I’ll take 　55 air.

When David came out of the shop, it was 　22 . He walked home in tears and then, together with his exasperated mother, went to the local police station to report the theft（盗窃案）.

Imagine their 　23 when they arrived at the station: a car parked out front had David’s bike wedged in the boot. The 　24 told my daughter how he’d seen a group of kids 25 for the bike once my grandson had gone 　26 the shop. The driver – in his late teens – had 27 out to them to leave the bike alone. Despite this, one of the kids in the group had 　28 on the bicycle and ridden it away while the others followed.

The teen got in his car, 　29 after them and demanded the stolen bike back. He was happy to be able to 　30 it to my grandson together with a lecture about the folly of failing to use the bike 31 . Then, in all the excitement, he 　32 away, without even giving his name or telephone number.

Helping children learn to deal with poverty and constantly struggle to become 33 in their lives is what my daughter pursues（追求）in her parenting; 34 , to the best of her belief, experiencing the world outside and learning from others 35 her children a lot.

I have always wanted to share this story because it is one of the things that I will remember for my entire life. And I’m sure 21 person feels the same.

We had a new teacher in my high school World History class. She was very nice and excited to see us. She told a story about her 22 fighting in a war and brought a picture of him. After about fifteen 23 of her talking, the class started talking softly to each other 24 they were getting bored. Looking 25 , she asked “So, you guys don’t really want to hear any more?” No one dared to actually say “no” to her out loud 26 one kid. He said, “No, not really!” in a disrespectful way. Some kids were a little 27 and thought that it was rather rude.

I felt extremely bad for this teacher. No one deserves to be 28 in such a disrespectful manner. 29 , a little before class let out, I went up to her and 30 for the guy’s rude behavior. I told her I had been 31 , and even though I may not entirely like 32 , I did appreciate her sharing her story. I asked her 33 about her father and asked to see the picture of him. We had a very nice, genuine conversation about her father.

The teacher was 34 . She really appreciated me coming up and actually treating her with the 　35 that she deserved. I felt at full peace with myself knowing that I did the right thing and I was super happy that I actually 36 . Even though I didn’t really care for history, I 37 listened, and I hope that others in different situations will do the same. Listening means a lot to the people sharing; it really 38 . If I had just left the class without saying a word, I would have felt extremely 39 and would have a constant reminder, probably to this day, that 40 was not served and I had left a person in their time of need.
