　　A poor boy had to sell things door by door for money to pay his schooling．One day he found that he only had one dime(一角钱)left, and he was hungry so he decided to beg(乞讨)for a meal at the next house．

　　However, he felt nervous when a lovely young woman opened the door．Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water．She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk．He drank it slowly, and then asked,“How much do I owe(欠)you?”

　　“You don't owe me anything,”she answered．“Mother has taught me never to accept(接受)pay for a kindness．”He said,“Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart．”As the boy left that house, he not only felt strongly moved, but also believed in people greatly．

　　Years later the woman was badly ill．The local(当地)doctors tried their best, but couldn't cure(治愈)her．They finally sent her to a hospital in the big city．Dr Howard Kelly, now famous, was called in．when he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes．Immediately(立即), dressed in his doctor's clothes, he went through the hospital hall into her room．He recognized(认出)her at once．He went back to his office and decided to do his best to save her life．From that day on, he gave special attention to her．

　　After some time, the woman was well enough．Dr Kelly asked the nurse to bring him the final bill(药费单)．He looked at it and then wrote something on the side．The bill was sent to her room．She was afraid to open it because she was sure that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off．Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill caught her attention．She read these words,“Paid in full with a glass of milk．－Dr Howard Kelly．”

　　Tears of joy flooded her eyes!

On the afternoon of October 13th, 2011 in Foshan, a two-year-old baby girl was playing in the street while her parents were busy working at their shop.But unfortunately, a truck went by and knocked into this poor girl.What's worse, without stopping to help the girl, the truck went over her, making this poor girl badly hurt.In the next 7 minutes, another truck went over her, and 18 passers­by just walked past without taking notice of the poor baby.At last, this girl was saved by an old woman who collected waste in the streets, but unluckily the baby girl was so badly hurt that she died at last.
This event aroused harsh criticism (引起强烈批判) on the Internet.But why do people seem so kind­hearted only on the Internet, but actually in the daily life we can hardly see them help each other? Lots of people made comments online: If you save someone who's hurt, he may say it's you who hurt him.You may have trouble when you do a good deed, because the law doesn't protect you.
We really need to learn from other countries in such cases.For example, in Singapore, if someone does wrong to the one who helps him, he has to say sorry in public and pay 3 times the medical fee as punishment.

corner. He stooped to look at the front row of shoes, and he felt for sorry for himself. He really wanted
to have a pair for his birthday.
     He sadly walked away and thought of what to tell his mother. He knew she would give him anything
if she could. But he also knew very well she had little money. He decided not to go home at once, as he
