On the first day of the school year, many parents were waiting outside of the school gates to pick up their children. My parents were busy with work,     1     I took up the responsibility to pick up my little brother.

Last Friday, while I was     2     for my brother, I saw him running out of the campus with a bag. But he did not come to me.     3    , he went to the store nearby. I was curious and worried, so I followed. I saw him take out 10 yuan that my father gave him in the morning to buy some     4    . I thought he must be hungry, so I waited. Unexpectedly, my brother went out to the other side of the school gate and     5     the food to an aged lady who was cleaning the school gate. Suddenly, I understood the case. I watched in silence and smiled.

March 5th is Lei Feng Day. Every year, many people do volunteer activities (志愿者活动) like Lei Feng. Wang Guansheng is one of them.

35-year-old Wang is from Dalian. In March this year, he was busy every day. He taught some farmers’ children to write and gave poor people some things they needed. But he never felt tired of helping others.

In 1999, Wang was a village student. One day, some young men went to his school and gave money to poor students. When Wang got 200 yuan, he was so happy. His teacher told him they were volunteers. They did that because Lei Feng’s spirit (精神) moved them. “At that time, I told myself that I would be like them and help others when I grew up,” Wang said.

On March 5th, 2011, Wang set up a service (服务) center. Now there are about 5,100 volunteers in the center. Wang often does volunteer activities with them. “I hope to call on more people to help others,” he said.

A winter storm dropped huge amounts of snow overnight in Pennsylvania on January 16th. ______ Brian Delallo, who worked on a local high school football team, ______ to call off his player’s weightlifting practice. He texted his players saying: “Due to the expected ______ weather, Monday’s weightlifting workout has been canceled. Find an elderly or disabled neighbor and clear ______ from their driveways. Everyone, please remember: Don’t ______ any money—that’s our Monday’s workout.”

The players received the ______ and went out to work on the thick snow that fell overnight. All of them spent several hours ______ removing the snow on the driveways. Afterwards, some players texted their coach to tell him how ______ they were. “We all feel great about it,” said team captain Gavin Moul, “it’s not only helping them, ______ it’s helping us to become a better team.”

Many people couldn’t believe that the players offered help without any payment. And some people even ______ the players’ help because they wouldn’t take money for it.

______, it was not the first time for the team to have the workout. It was started by a coach more than twenty years ago. It was one of the many ______ the team kept.

“It’s about community.” the coach said, “it is an inspiring way for ______ to communicate with the community. Removing snow is just one of those chances to show thanks to the community that ______ us.”

The team got a workout and gave back to the community by doing these acts of ______ at the same time. It was a win for all.
