     On the first day of my sixth grade, I saw one little girl called Amy on the school bus. "Don't talk to
her," said Lauren, who sat beside me, "or they will make fun of you."
     Amy had many physical differences-lots of reasons for other kids to make fun of her. Her eyes
weren't straight. Her glasses were too big. And she had really ugly teeth.
     Every day as we drove to and from school, kids would insult Amy, "God, what a strange face! Stop
looking at me!"
     I had to be in silence. After all, I didn't want them to treat me in the same way.
     But while I was insulting her, my heart ached for the girl. I could see that she was so ashamed
(感到羞耻的) and alone. Then I wanted to stand up for her. I just didn't know how to stop my
schoolmates until the night of our class skating party.
     Our whole class was there. Amy was there, too. Amy didn't know how to skate, but I could see
how much she wanted to have fun like the rest of us. So I skated over to her and took her by the hand.
She just smiled, and was very excited.
     The next morning there was much news about Amy and me skating together. But nobody laughed at
her or me. And they didn't for the rest of the year. I never heard from Amy again after the school year.
But I've always hoped that I changed her life for the better.

     On Thanksgiving Day, a teacher asked her class of first-graders to draw a picture of something they
were thankful for. She thought that these children from poor families actually had little to be thankful for.
And she found most of them drawing pictures of flowers or tables with food. The teacher was very
surprised to see the picture Douglas handed in. It's a hand, a simple hand.
     But whose hand? The class were very interested in the strange picture."I think it must be the hand of
God that bring us food," said one child, "A farmer," said another,"Because he grows beautiful flowers."
Finally when the others were at work, the teacher went over Douglas' desk and asked whose hand it was.
"It's your hand, Teacher," she said quietly and shyly.
    She remembered that she had often taken Douglas, a dirty lonely child, by the hand while having a class
break. She often did that with the children. But it meant so much to Douglas. Perhaps this is everyone's
thanksgiving, not for the material things we get, but for the chance, in whatever small way, to give to others.

2. Why did Douglas draw the picture?
A. He was good at drawing it.
B. His teacher asked him to draw it.
C. He wanted to show his thanks to the teacher.
D. He hoped to get a prize in drawing.
3. What do you learn about Douglas from the passage?
