【题目】 The Sixth Time I Went to the Principal's Office
When I was in the seventh grade, I had problems behaving. My heart was in the right place, but I couldn't always follow the rules. I played many tricks on my schoolmates. Once, I even pulled a girl's hair on the school bus to get her attention. As a result, I was repeatedly sent to the office of the principal(校长).
Although I hated going there, I did not hate the principal, Mr. Ratcliff. Mr. Ratcliff was a kind, elderly man. When he spanked(打屁股) me for putting some ants into a classmate's pencil box, it didn't hurt at all, but it did hurt my feelings. I thought so much of him and moments like that seemed to prove I was hopelessly bad.
When I got called to Mr. Ratcliff's office for the sixth time, I had no idea what I had done. I felt disappointed as I walked down there. I went into his office, sat down, and looked at the floor. Then he said the last thing I expected to hear, "Kevin, I've heard you've been behaving really well lately. I want you to know how proud I am of you, and I just called you down to my office to give you a peppermint."
"Really?" I was surprised. "Yes. Now you can take that peppermint and go back to class."
I carried the peppermint with me as if it was a gold coin. When I got into my classroom, I bragged(吹嘘) to my classmates about my turn around, excitedly. I wasn't so bad after all.
Mr. Ratcliff was really kind. He made me realize that I was just a kid who had problems with behavior. He bought some peppermints and took the time to notice me when I got something-anything-right. Mr. Ratcliff gave me some hope by giving me some love. I will just remember him for the rest of my life.

【题目】 Countless people long to make a difference this holiday season, yet they don’t realize that opportunities(机遇) to make a difference are everywhere. Here are some ideas to get you started.
Organize a blank drive
It is cold outside, but imagine how thousands of homeless people may feel without a home of their own, or even a blanket to keep them from the cold. Organize a blank drive for your local homeless, and ask around for donations!
Practice random(随意的) acts of kindness
I’ll never forget the time when I went to pay for my Dr. Pepper, but the nurse stopped me, saying my bill was paid by an anonymous(匿名的) guest. It’s this random act of kindness that restores(恢复) my faith in humanity. Bless someone by paying for their drink at Starbucks, or praising them! If you live somewhere where it snows, shovel your neighbour’ssnow out of their driveway for them! Whether it is as simple as praise or as complex(复杂的) as paying the bill, you’ll never know how far your influence will reach.
Say thank-you
Just a simple thank-you can make someone’s day, especially if they feel like their work is never noticed. Cultivate(培养) a smile on their face by being sincere and thankful for all that they do.
Use your talents to help the community
The best way to show your thanks for people is by using the talents and skills you have to bless others. For me, I love to coordinate(协调) events and write, and so my way of reaching out to the community is through writing articles and creating awareness(意识) about problems we face today. If you can bake, make some delicious cookies for people to enjoy! If you can knit, put your talents to use by making clothes for children in foster care(寄养中心). Any talent can be used to help the community in meaningful ways.
Wish you a happy, healthy and helpful holiday season.
