Do you know that when you’re kind to others, it’s good for your own happiness too? Even small acts of kindness can make you more confident and help you feel more connected to the people around you.
Kindness means doing something thoughtful and generous for others without thinking anything in return. It could be a small, simple act, like holding open a door, or something that takes time and effort, like making a playlist for your friend. Kindness isn’t just something you do. It also means thinking about others’ feelings, as well as your own.
Start with something simple and easy, like sending a message to a friend you haven’t spoken to for a while. Try to do something you enjoy, while remembering that you are doing it for others, and see if you can turn kindness into a habit.
B. How to show our kindness?
C How is kindness good for you?
D. Don’t forget to show kindness to yourself too.
E. If you treat others kindly, they may pass on the kindness.

请阅读以下短文，根据所提供的信息，回答问题。
Li Jing was born in a village in Hubei. She was one of the first college students in the village. She had a good job in Wuhan after she finished her study in university. However, she made a big decision last year to return to her village.
“I just want to improve the life of my villagers while realizing my own personal value,” Li said.
Li’s village heavily depends on agriculture and most of the villagers grow potatoes. But they had to walk several kilometers to sell their products in the town.
First, Li spent most of her time improving potato production. And she usually got the villagers together in the village square to share potato planting skills and sales channels each other.
To increase the popularity and sales of the small potatoes, Li chose video sharing websites. However, it was not easy. Most of the young people left the village for chances elsewhere. The middle-aged and elderly villagers knew little about live-streaming and refused her new idea. She didn’t force them to accept her idea. She often visited and talked to them.
Today the villagers’ lives have been greatly improved with the help of video sharing websites. “In the near future, I will search more ways to improve the life of my villagers,” Li said.

9 . On April 8, in Hangzhou, a young man called Andy ordered and packed his breakfast at a local noodle house and got much more than he expected.
Andy shared a video on the Internet about his experience at a noodle house in the morning. In the video, which had over 2.3 million views, Andy was shocked by what he found in his to-go bag instead of breakfast.
“Why? There’s a couple of thousand yuan in my bag.” Andy said, “Why would they do this? Why would they give this to me?” Andy shared his shocking discovery on the Internet. He knew that he could just take the money, but finally, he said he knew what he needed to do.
“Now I have to return it because I’m a good person, I guess,” Andy said, putting the money back into the bag.
After he walked into the noodle house, he gave the bag to a worker at the door. The worker realized he was returning the money they had been looking for. With the grateful (感激的) smiles on their faces, one worker asked if they could give him a hug, which he accepted.
Back in the car, Andy reflected on what he had done. “The workers were just all hugging me and thanking me. I got such a great feeling of pride when I saw the look of joy on their faces,” he said.
“Honesty can lead me forward and make my future more colorful,” he wrote in his diary.
