8 . I stole your dog today. No, I didn’t set foot in your house, but from the condition of your dog, I can imagine what it looks like... the word “rubbish” comes to mind.

I found her along a road, with a heavy chain wrapped around her neck, still attached to rotten boards from her doghouse. Not only did I know that most of the town people had already ignored her, judging by where I found her, but I knew that if she had gotten into the Woods, the “cross” that she dragged behind her would have wrapped around a tree until starvation or thirst killed her. She has a beautiful name now. Already in the first week she has come to look more like she should. Her eyes sparkle and she has learned to wag her tail in greeting. She has stopped flinching (畏缩) when I make a sudden movement, because she knows now that I won’t beat her. In fact, she rarely leaves my side. She’s even become brave enough to bark at a cat and today I watched from the window as she attempted to play with the other dogs. No, it’s clear she does not miss you or her former life on a chain.

It’s not clear yet whether shell remain here or whether I’ll find her a loving home where she can count on more individual attention than I can give her, but one thing is certain. This is one bit of stolen “property” who is never returning to you. So charge me, accuse me, plead (乞求) with the courts that she is rightfully yours... I’m convinced this is the best “crime” I’ve ever committed. Hardly anything has pleased me more than the day I stole your dog. I need only look into her beautiful brown eyes to know that shed defend my decision with her life. If we have one prayer, it is that you will not replace her, and if we have one special day to celebrate together, it is the day I stole your dog and the day she stole my heart.

9 . When we want to tell other people what we think, we can do it with the help of words. We can also do it in many other ways, too. Sometimes we move our heads up and down when we want to say “yes”, and we shake our heads when we want to say “no”. When you wave to a friend, you are using body language. When you smile at someone you mean to be friendly. When you put one finger in front of your mouth, you mean “be quiet”.

Yet, people in different countries may use different body languages.

An Englishman was in Italy. He could speak little Italian. One day while he was walking in the street, he felt hungry and went into a restaurant. When the waiter came, the Englishman opened his mouth, put his fingers into it and took them out again and moved his lips. In this way, he meant to say, “Bring me something to eat”. But the waiter brought him a lot of things to drink, first tea, then coffee then milk, but no food.

The Englishman was sorry that he was not able to tell the waiter he was hungry. He was ready to leave the restaurant when another man came in. The man put his hands on his stomach, and this body language was good enough for the waiter. In a few minutes, the waiter brought him a large plate of bread and meat. Finally the Englishman had his meal in the same way.

10 . I won’t forget my voluntary experience a while back. It always reminds me what people truly need is not always so _________. This story is a lesson which has stayed with me and helped me ever since.

It was Thanksgiving and I was _________ with my mother at a shelter for the needy. We stood behind the counter distributing (分发) food to _________ came in. It seemed that most of our diners had been having _________ times. Their clothes were ragged, worn and dirty; they were hungry and tired. _________, they looked needy!

When we were busy with the unlucky fellows, a well-dressed man came in who looked _________ but poor. I wondered what he was doing there and my jaw dropped in amazement when he _________ the line for food. The closer he came to my service station, the more I muttered (小声嘀咕). What was this man doing? I wanted to know. Surely he wasn’t going to take the food _________ for those really in need! He had small talks with _________ and the look on his face suggested that he just ____________ to escape being alone.

Then my mother ____________ took me to one side, saying, “You have ____________ that the needs of the people who come here must be purely ____________: hunger, inadequate shelter, clothing, etc. But this gentleman seems to have none of those problems. What if his needs are ____________? What if he needs comfort, friends, or just to be among other human beings?” Her words ____________ me like a ton of bricks! I felt like I should apologize to the man, but I didn’t.

About a week later, from an unknown source, the shelter received a large ____________. I can’t help but ____________ if it came from that man.

Now, whenever I meet others, I remember my mother’s words and try to send kindness and blessings to them, ____________ how they look. Needs aren’t always visible. Maybe emotional ____________ is not only the loneliest feeling, but the most difficult need to get ____________. But kindness always makes a difference.
