题目内容

【题目】 Just days before Jessica Joy Rees lost her heartbreaking battle with brain tumors(瘤), her parents wrote on their blog about how they were excited for a great 2012.

They were confident that the 12-year-old girl would reach her goal of making 50,000 of her “Joy Jars” which were filled with candy and toys for sick children. They were exploring other medical treatments in Europe. They continued to pray and encouraged others to do the same. Unfortunately, their prayers were answered differently than they hoped.

“We have prayed and prayed and prayed for sweet Jessie to be treated here on earth but God’s plan was to use heaven for her treatment,” they wrote on Facebook when Jessie died on Thursday, after a 10-month battle with brain cancer.

Jessica began her blog and Facebook page after being found with a brain tumor in March, six months before a second one was found. Jessica wrote on Facebook that her task was “to encourage kids fighting cancer to NEVER EVER GIVE UP by spreading hope, joy and love. A cheerful heart is great medicine”.

“I love spreading joy to kids with our Joy Jars. I love reading all of the posts on Facebook. I love having so many people praying for me. I love that people are supporting NEVER EVER GIVE UP and allowing us to help kids. I love my family and all of my new friends,” the 12-year-old wrote.

“Thank you all for honoring Jessie by helping her reach her 50,000 goal today. We will NEVER EVER GIVE UP spreading hope, joy and love to kids fighting cancer. Jessie’s dream is now our goal!” her parents wrote on her Facebook page shortly after she died.

【题目】 I didn't grow up in a very loving family. In fact, there are few, if any, happy memories I have of my childhood involving my family members. My happiest moments were spent with the few friends I was allowed to have. My family eventually distanced from all the neighbors. So the time came when I didn't even have neighborhood kids to play with. So, I learned to spend my time reading, discovering nature and setting and achieving small goals for myself.

There was another family in town that was quite similar to mine. They had a lot of children like my own family. They attended the same church. I always wondered what it would be like if my family were more like them. They never knew it, but I watched them and admired hem. They were happy and close — everything I wished my family could be.

Decades Later I found myself back at that very same church I had left behind. This time I was in that church for my mother's funeral. As I approached the church for the funeral, memories came flooding back home. I remembered the warm, kind smiles of that family when I was a child.

After the funeral service, I heard a familiar voice call my name. I turned around and he was there, the father of that, family I had admired when I was young. He was a church volunteer for my mother's funeral lunch. We chatted for a bit. I pointed out my happy child to him and it was at that point I realized I was raising my boy in a way I had seen him raise his own children so long ago. He didn't realize it, but my son s life has been greatly affected by him.

Live your life with virtue.You never know who’s watching, who you will inspire and whose life you'll change.
