【推荐1】Some American students raised $8,000 for a class trip, but they decided to give the money away to help their neighbors.
The students — all 13 of them — are from Islesboro Central School. The school is on an island (岛) in Maine, America. Only about 700 people are living on the island. Five of the students don’t even live on the island, and come to classes by boat.
Before the coronavirus pandemic (新冠疫情), the students worked hard and did a lot of activities to raise money for their class trip. They planned to go to Greece or Republic of Korea.
The pandemic changed everything. Taking a long trip was not possible any more. Then, they thought about taking a trip near their home. But in the end, they decided it wasn’t right to spend money on travel during that special time. They used the money to help people in the neighborhood — some were out of work and some needed money for food.
“The pandemic caused problems for many people. I felt really good to use our money to help them,” said the students. They really did something meaningful!

【推荐3】My name is Sam. I joined a club called “passing help” last month. Now let me tell you why I joined it.
One evening this May, on my way home my old car broke down (出故障). It was 25 miles from my home. I wanted to get a ride (搭便车), but there was no car. It was also hard to take a taxi. I decided to take a bus home. I went to a bus stop nearby.
After a while, a bus came, but it did not go to my town. The bus driver was a young woman. She was kind and she told me which bus I should take. I waited there for about thirty minutes, but no bus came. At last a car came to me and a woman came out of the car. She was just the bus driver.
“When I reached the bus station, I got to know that the bus to your town couldn’t come, so I returned here. I just can’t leave you here,” she said, “Get in my car and I will take you back to your home.”
“It is a long way.” I said.
“Come on, sir,” she said, “Let’s go.”
On the way she told me a story. A few days ago, there wasn’t gas (汽油) in her car. An old man drove her up to a gas station and then back to her car.
When we got to my home, I wanted to give her some money to thank her, but she didn’t accept it. “I only want to help others and do something nice for somebody. Pass it along.” She said.
