Today, I felt unhappy with my head full of problems, so I decided to take a walk even though I didn’t I know where I would go. The most   21   thing happened when I was walking along the street.

I saw an old man, over seventy years old, sitting on a chair. He was a seller of second-hand shoes. He seemed so helpless and nobody was   22   his shoes. Then, a little girl came towards him. I heard the girl say in a / an   23   voice, “Grandfather, may I clean your shoes?” That old man   24   and passed her a shoe. The girl said, “I do this   25   I want to earn some money to buy my brother a new school   26  .”

I heard this and tears came to my eyes. To my   27  , the old man said, “Oh, little girl, just stop doing this. Come with me and I will buy one   28   you.” To see what would happen, I   29  . They walked to a   30   and there the old man   31   got her a uniform, which must have cost him a lot. The girl was   32   and said, “Thank you so much for doing this. May God bless you.” Then she left, leaving the old man   33  .

As the old man decided to leave, I stopped him and whispered in his ear, “You are really a great hero! Thank you for your   34  !” My own sadness had disappeared. It had been   35   by the light of this moving act. I began to realize that a little act can brighten up someone’s day.

Ever since 1 was little, my favourite season was winter. I loved to play in the snow and enjoyed the hot chocolate. 

  16  , winter never gave me the special gift of snow on my birthday. I would ask my grandmother  17  it didn’t snow on my birthday. She would laugh and tell me I asked too many questions.   18  one day, she promised that she would make it snow on my next birthday.

That year,   19  my birthday, my grandmother died. I was sad but angry because she had promised to make it snow. The day of my sixth birthday, I woke up and ran to the window, hoping  to see just one snowflake(雪花). But there was no   20   . I felt mad at my grandmother. She had broken a promise.

    By my sixteenth birthday, I   21  all hope of getting my snow, even though I still wished for it.

During my party, I stayed with my friends and family and was truly    22  . I  23  the best time ever! Then I saw the white snow   24  down all around. I was so excited that I ran around screaming and laughing. My friends all laughed   25  me, but I didn’t care.

    When I   26  home, my grandpa said he had a gift for me. I was   27  because he had given me a gift. It was a small white box, which looked old. I opened it. There was a crystal snowflake(冰晶雪花)with a card that    28  , “Happy Birthday.”

    How could this be? My grandpa said it was my grandmother’s final    29  on my “sweet sixteenth”. I cried.

    I was   30  that my smiling grandmother angel was and had been watching over me.
