4 . It was a sunny Sunday afternoon. I stopped at a tea house to enjoy a cup of tea. When I was drinking my tea, I heard someone saying,“ Hi, David! How are you?”
Looking back, I saw a man. He looked familiar (熟悉的) but I couldn’t remember where we had met. Then I asked him to join me for tea. Very soon, his story started to evoke my memory (唤醒我的回忆).
His name is Peter. Six years ago, Peter drove back home on a February night. A heavy snow arrived that afternoon. And that night, his car was stuck in a snowdrift (被困在雪堆里) just down the road from my house. I helped him get his car out of the snowdrift.
This was a small thing in winter. I couldn’t remember how many times some people helped me get my car out of the snowdrift. Peter was only eighteen and very afraid at that time. It was an unforgettable experience (难忘的经历) for him.
Sometimes, just a simple (简单的) kindness at the right time may change (改变) a person’s life. So just be kind and helpful.

Let’s imagine (想象) you are in a doll (玩偶) store with your friend. The two of you want to buy a doll.
If your friend looks like my daughter, Bella, it is easy for her to see a doll like her in the doll store. Bella is a beautiful girl with blonde hair and big eyes. She could be the model of some dolls. But let’s imagine that your friend doesn’t look like Bella. Your friend is a little different. She may have no hair because of illness (疾病). Or she may lose her arms (胳膊) or legs (腿) in a house fire. Do you often see dolls like that in a doll store? Not very often, right?
I am Amy and I’m American. I make dolls by hand for special kids. My first doll was for Molly, a sweet girl. She lost one of her legs. I made Molly a doll like her. She really likes it and it makes her life easier. After that, I began to make dolls for lots of kids like Molly.
I love my job. I like making dolls for those special but lovely kids. It is a good way to show kindness. If people see Molly for the first time, they may ask, “What’s wrong with the girl? “But if Molly has the doll with her, they may say, “How cute her doll is! It just looks like her!”
Differences make these special kids feel terrible. It’s hard to tell them that they are different, but they are excellent. It’s not so difficult to give them a doll that looks like them. With a doll, they will know they are not the only one who looks this way. They are beautiful enough to be a doll.

A 12-year-old boy named Laurence Chandler became the youngest cyclist to finish the route. Chandler wanted to raise (筹集) money for Smile Train. It is a children’s charity (慈善组织).
Chandler took 20 days to finish the route. Every day, he rode his bike between 40 and 60 miles. He spent 6 hours riding his mountain bike every day. It was hard to ride on bad days, and riding up hill was also hard.
