On a cold November afternoon, my mother and I were walking back home from a pizza store. We had bought many things. We were dressed  26 , and I was feeling a little  27   as I was carrying our shopping, so I decided to throw something away. I was walking towards a dustbin（垃圾箱）  28   I noticed a poor man walking out of the restaurant in front of us. He headed over to the nearby dustbin and started looking through it. I suddenly felt very   29   because I was about to throw away a new drink just because it was too heavy. I walked up to him and handed the  30   and some bread over to him. The man looked up  31   and took what I gave him. A huge smile   32   on his face. I felt I couldn’t be happier with33  . But then he said, “Wow, this is my son’s lucky day!” With that, he thanked me happily and started off on his bike. I   34   heard him singing as he rode away. I got a warm 35   inside. I now understand what it   36   by the saying “Giving is getting”.

    37   it was only a little action, I got and learned more in those two minutes than I did in the rest of the month. Everyone in the world   38 help. Everyone can give help and everyone will be helped by showing kindness.

The scene of that man’s happiness caused by my small gift appears in my mind   39  I have the chance to do something nice. This is the power（力量）of   40 .
