On our way to California，my husband Lee and I stopped at a restaurant to have lunch and stretch our legs a bit with our kids Jack and Jenny.
As we walked toward the entrance，an ugly looking doorman jumped up from a nearby bench and opened the door for us. "Good afternoon and welcome to Denny's，" he said in a very joyful voice.In his hand he held a cup full of steaming coffee—which was inviting on such a cold day—but from the looks of the rest of him，it appeared that he hadn't had a good meal or a shower in a long time.Obviously he was homeless.But regardless of his appearance，he greeted us as if we were his best friends，adding as we entered， "Today's soup and sandwich special is a great deal."
Once inside，my kids whispered to me， "Mom，he smells." After we ordered our lunch，Lee and I explained the best we could，telling the kids to look beyond the dirt to the person underneath and within.As we explained，the four of us watched other customers approach the restaurant.They appeared unsure of the homeless man and many ignored him.
Seeing this rudeness truly frustrated me.When we were almost finished，I excused myself from the meal and went to the truck for my purse.
As I neared the front door，the doorman was opening it for a couple and welcoming them to the restaurant.They rushed past him and didn't even acknowledge his presence.I let the couple come through first and then said a loud，and polite "thank you" to the doorman as I exited.
When I came back，we talked a lot.The doorman told me that the restaurant's manager wouldn't let him inside unless he purchased food.All he could afford was coffee which，he said，didn't count as"food" according to the manager，so he had to stay outside.

【答案】Seated myself，I signalled the waiter to come and decided to do something before leaving.I told his story to my family and asked our waiter to add one more soup and sandwich special to our bill.Both the kids looked at me curiously as we had already eaten，but Lee knew exactly what I was doing.The waiter was confused，too，but when I explained the order was for the doorman and that he was to eat his meal inside with the rest of the customers，he smiled and thanked me.He walked towards the doorman and conveyed my kindness to him.
Hearing the waiter's words，the doorman approached me excitedly and thanked me for the hot meal.He extended his hand for a handshake，which I gratefully accepted.It was then I realized he had tears of gratitude in his eyes.I gave him a hug.Just as surprised as the rest，the doorman held me tight for a few moments.Pulling away，his tears were now streaming down his face.Back to the truck，both children asked why I would order a meal for the "smelly guy".Again，I shared that everyone had goodness inside and by expressing one simple act of kindness to others，the world would possibly become a better place.

1．Jenny was the only child in her home.She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily.
She couldn't help weeping sorrowfully when she thought of the scolding from her mother.Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours，she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat，but it was not even possible for her，since she had nothing with her.She stood beside a stand for a while，watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business.However，with no money in hand，she sighed and had to leave.
The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked， "Hey，girl，you want to have the noodles？
"Oh，yes…，but I don't have money on me…" she replied.
"That's nothing.I'll treat you today，" said the man. "Come in."
The seller brought her a bowl of noodles，whose smell was so attractive.
As she was eating，Jenny cried silently.
"What is it？" asked the man kindly.
"Nothing，actually I was just touched by your kindness!" said Jenny as she wiped her tears. "Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles，while my mother，drove me out of the house.She showed no care for me.She is so merciless compared to a stranger!!"
Hearing the words，the seller smiled， "Girl，do you really think so？I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot.But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby.Can you number the times she cooked for you？Have you expressed your gratitude to her？"
Jenny sat there，speechless and numb with shock？she remembered Mother's familiar face and weathered hands. "Why did I not think of that？A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel indebted，but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me."
On the way home，Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.

2．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I grew up in a poor family with six brothers，three sisters，my father and mother.We had little money and few goods，but plenty of love and attention.I was happy and energetic.I understood that no matter how poor a person was，he could still afford a dream.
My dream was athletics.By the time I was sixteen，I could throw a ninety-mile-per-hour fastball and hit anything moving on the football field.And I was so lucky that my high-school coach was Ollie Jarvis，who not only believed in me，but often told me "Dream is priceless".However，when I was about to get off the ground，one particular incident happened，which almost ruined my long-held dream.
It was the summer holiday in senior two and a friend recommended me for a summer job.I was offered ﹩12.25 per hour.Compared with the average ﹩3.5，that was a big sum.I was so excited，because this meant a chance for money in my pocket，certainly money for a new bike and new clothes，and the start of savings for a house for my mojye.air.The prospect（前景）of the job was inviting，and I wanted to jump at the opportunity.
Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball training to handle the work schedule.I didn't dare to tell my coach，I thought of the advice my mother often gave me when I lacked courage， "If you make your bed，you have to lie in it. "I decided to talk to my coach in person.After all，my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth facing his disappointment to me.

3． One day，when I was a first-year student in high school，I saw a kid from my class walking home from school.His name was Kris.It looked like he was carrying all of his books.I thought to myself，"Why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday？He must really be a nerd（书呆子）."
I had quite a weekend planned（parties and a football game with my friends），so I shrugged my shoulders and went on.As I was walking，I saw a gang of kids running toward him.They ran at him，knocking all his books out of arms and tripping him so he landed in the dirt.His glasses went flying，and I saw them land in the grass about ten feet from him.He looked up，and I saw terrible sadness in his eyes.
My heart went out to him.So I jogged over to him，and as he crawled around looking for his glasses，I saw tears in his eyes.As I handed him his glasses，I said，"They are bad guys!They really should be punished."He looked at me and said，"Hey，thanks!"There was a big smile on his face.It was one of those smiles that showed real gratitude.
I helped him pick up his books and asked him where he lived.As it turned out，he lived near me，so I asked him why I had never seen him before.He said he had gone to a private school before.I would have never hung out with a private school kid before，but we talked all the way home，and I carried his books.
