I believe that small acts of kindness have the biggest influence on our lives. While on a vacation in Mexico with my family, I learned this valuable   36   . Our room was on the 8th floor of our hotel, so we would    37 the elevator every day.     38  other people use it ,too.
One afternoon I rode it alone. The bellboy greeted me and   39  the button for my floor.I smiled and took the elevator in     40  . The elevator stopped at the next floor, and an elderly maid  41  in with a large bundle of clean towels. I could tell she was   42  to carry the large load and was probably   43   from having worked all morning. I felt it was not my place to interfere(干涉), so I     44  to do something to help. The bellboy, also sensing her    45 ,  took the heavy bundle from her arms.
The maid looked at the boy with    46  and then smiled gratefully to his   47  . They then began to speak in Spanish to each other.    48  I couldn’t understand what they were saying , I could tell by their    49  that the boy’s act of kindness had made her day. He could have ridden in silence like me. It wasn’t his    50  to help her ,but he did    51       
After I came out of the elevator ,guilt overcame me as I     52  what I should have done in that situation. Why didn’t I take the towels? The boy wasn’t    53  of how his actions would affect all the people   54 his thoughtful deed.  He probably doesn’t even   55 helping the woman in the elevator. To me , his small act of kindness made my day as well.

LAST weekend, I helped my friend Alex get money for poor children at Crossroads Mall He  36 needed volunteers, especially of the female. I decided that this was a pretty good  37 , so the next day I got ready to go.
I arrived at Crossroads about five minutes  38 , and helped Alex and   39 of the volunteers. There were only three  40 at first, and we figured we might as well get started  41 just waiting for more to arrive. I held the   42 , and suddenly felt extremely shy. I did not  43 asking people for donations. In fact, I’m usually one of those people who try to   44 those boring stands and ask you for a little contribution. For heaven’s sake, I can contribute to a few,   45 I cannot alone  46 every single cause in the world!
I really didn’t like the idea of asking anyone for donations to our cause.   47 , I watched my friends speak to the strangers, and noticed that they were extra polite to everyone—no matter whether they  48 . I realized that   49 I wasn’t pushy(强求的), it would be okay, and my conscience could be  50 .
I pasted on a large smile, and started asking people passing by. My mouth tripped over words, and I continually said “um” while I thought of the correct terms.   51 I talked to more and more people. Not only improved, but also started noticing small  52 . Instead of saying “donate”, which made most people walk away  53 .I started suing the word “contribute”. I added the phrase “every little bit counts”, and people started to donate small amounts in larger quantities. As the day went on, I learned how to pull on the hearts of the   54 , and I became a successful fundraiser.
At the end of the day, we all gathered at Alex’s house and   55 how much money we raised. I was so surprised; We raised over $300! We celebrated, and went home tired, but satisfied that we helped a great cause.
