Have you been asked for money by some disabled beggars (乞丐) while you’re enjoying shopping? Do you have any pity on them who are so poor and lonely or do you just feel afraid of their terrible shapes? As one of the most special groups, disabled people’s living conditions—not only their material (物质的) conditions, but their mental (精神的) world, really need improvement.

The treatment for disabled people should go like this: First, don’t look down upon them. Don’t be afraid of looking at the terrible shapes of the disabled. Try to treat them equally. Because they are a part of the society, we can’t discard (抛弃) them. The second is to help them as much as we could. If you can be a volunteer and do some work for the disabled people, that would be very nice. That does help not only to the disabled people but also to yourself because you will feel good after your kind action.

If every one of us gives a little love, the world will become a beautiful wonderland!

One afternoon many years ago, I sat down on a bench in a park and watched a little boy, around 2 years old, running freely on the grass as his mother watched from a short distance. The boy would fall to the grass, get up, and without looking back at his mother, run as fast as he could as if nothing had happened.

When kids fall down, they don’t think of the fall as a failure. Instead, they consider it as a learning experience. They try and try again until they succeed.

While I was touched(感动的) by the boy’s strong mind, I was also touched by the way he ran. With each attempt, he looked so confident and natural. He only wanted to run freely and to do it as well as he could. He was just being a child – just being himself – being completely in the moment. He never gave up. Each time he fell, he got himself back up again, as if he knew that falling down was simply a part of life.

He was not looking for others’ smiles, or worrying about whether someone was watching or not. He only wanted to run and to feel the experience of running fully and freely. I learned a lot from that experience, and have successfully brought that lesson with me in many parts in my life.

A. was strict with him B. had a special way to educate her son

C. didn’t love her son as much as others D. was too weak to help her son get up

2.The underlined word “attempt” in Paragraph 3 may mean “______”.

A. try B. help C. support D. mistake

3.The writer was touched by the boy because the boy ______.

A. might stop running when he fell down

B. never fell down if he made up his mind to run

C. didn’t care about the fall and went on running

D. was good at running and never fell down

4.What can we learn from the story?

A. Falling down will make a person feel frightened from then on.

B. Falling down is the mother of success.

C. When others are watching, people fall down easily.

D. One will succeed if he / she is confident and never gives up.
