Have you ever offered a helping hand to those who are in trouble?

One day, two ___ were walking along the road to school when they saw an old woman carrying a large basket of pears. They thought the woman looked very ___ . They went up to her and said, “Are you going to town? If you are, we will help carry your basket.”

“Thank you,” ______ the woman. “You are very kind. You see I’m weak and ill.” Then she told them that she was now going to market to ____ the pears which grew on the only tree in her little garden.

“We are all going to the ____ ,” said the boys. “Let us carry the basket.” And they took hold of it, one each side. They walked _____ with the heavy basket, but happily.

The other day, I saw a little girl stop and___ a piece of banana peel (皮), which she threw into the dustbin (垃圾桶). “I wish ______ would throw that on the sidewalk,” said she. “Someone may step on it and fall.”
