2 . Last night around 12 o'clock, my brother and I felt a little hungry. He asked me to go to a shop near our house to buy some snacks. It was______outside. As I put on my sweater, a thought came to my mind—I won’t spend all the money on food. Instead, I’ll______some money for a person in need. On my way, I______a homeless person sleeping on the footpath.

As I passed him, I knew________what I was going to spend that money on. I wanted to put a smile on his face. I wanted to help him. But_______? There was no way I was going to wake him up in the middle of the______. A lot of unanswered questions kept coming into my_______, mostly related to ways to_______him.

I bought one less packet of chips for myself so I could get______for the homeless man.

As I walked back, I______him again. I was a little nervous because I had to     _____the biscuits right next to his head and not disturb(打扰) his______. The closer I got, the faster my heart started to______. With slow steps, I______to put the biscuits right next to him without making any______. Then, I turned and walked away.

The______that he may not have to spend money or______food when he wakes up in the morning made me______.

I really hope that he______when he woke, and that he had his breakfast without any worry of effort. I’m happy that a small decision of mine was of some_______for a person in need.

5 . When I was 12 years old, I already knew that my teen years were going to be the worst years at my life. I was a total outsider, bullied at school. I felt completely alone in my small town.

But by starting to do volunteer work when I was 14, I turned my problem into a passion for helping others. The opportunity to practice kindness made me feel like my life had a greater purpose. The more positive energy I shared, the more kindness and appreciation I received. I realized that my purpose in life would be to reach out to people, specifically teenagers, and help them feel less alone.

Books were my time friends back then. I was so thankful that the authors wrote those books. The kindness they offered me with their books saved my life. One of my biggest dreams was to become an author so I could write books that would help other teenagers the way those books helped me.

After surviving terrible experiences at school and at home, I made a choice to take the optimistic, positive road in the next steps of my journey. My dream career is what I am doing now. I have been a full-time author of teen novels since 2007 and am grateful for this amazing opportunity to reach out to readers every single day.

Kindness saved me when I needed help the most. Even small acts of kindness can change someone’s life. You never know what someone else is going through. But by practicing daily kindness, you become an architect of positive change.

Today my daughter and I went to a parking lot     1     (sell) some of our eggs. It’s an     2     (extreme) cold day. As we pulled into the parking lot, there was a man     3     (sit) on the roadside, holding his bike, and he held up a paper plate on     4     he had written will work for food”.

He was still there as we left the parking lot, and I asked my daughter should we get him some food or some money?” and she said “yes, let’s”.

So I pulled up next     5     him, got out of the car, and gave him all my egg money. I still had another dozen     6     (egg) in the car, so I asked if he wanted them,     7     unexpectedly, he said no. He still had half a dozen and he didn’t want     8     (donate) from others more than he needed.

I felt     9     (freeze) through and through just standing there talking with him for a minute, and he must be sitting there for hours. I’m glad we     10     (stop), I’m glad I got out of the car and talked with him for a minute. I hope he has a warm place to sleep tonight.
