　　When asked about the good results brought about by the small-class teaching , Mr Yu, headmaster of Siping Road Primary School, said that new way of teaching 20 .It can help puplis work out problems on their own. 22 ,a teacher may have to pay more attention to each 23 ,even to some shy ones who are often neglected (忽视) by the teachers in a 24 class. This means that teachers should know each student quite well, Yu said.

　　It is said that, in the near future, the small-class teaching method will 25 to other primary schools in Shanghai.

Last weekend, my kids along with a few other kids from the neighborhood volunteered to help me wash my car．My 10-year-old daughter came up with the idea of 31 other people’s cars as well．It was pretty　 32　 outside and I had no plans to　 33　 being in the bright sun．She　 34　 wanted to give lemonade（柠檬汽水）to passers-by for free．I had seen little kids 35　 and sell fresh lemonade for a small cost but not free．Although I felt 36 , I decided to help her．

　　 37　 she asked me, “What if we 38　 this a smile car wash?” I couldn’t hold back my tears and　 39　 her and the other kids to go outside the house and come up with　 40　 ideas．While I kept myself busy in drying the car, the gang walked up to me with a（n） 41　 with beautiful images of smiles．They had “Free Car Wash” written on it and the　 42　 of their exercise was “smile”．It was pretty neat to see a team of kids ranging 5-11 years with the 43　 to do something for others．

　　　 All that seemed 44　 and came right from their heart．Nothing seemed to　 45　 to them: their playtime, the heat outside—they just wanted to　 46 others and do something nice in the community!

　　　 I helped them make some fresh lemonade and brought out some additional　 47 to help clean cars．Passers-by were　 48　 and one even shouted back to them saying “God Bless You, my kids…” One of them even tried giving them 5 dollars, which they refused．A pretty heartwarming　 49　 !

　　　 I feel blessed by being 50　 by such wonderful and loving souls．

Listen Quietly
