Betty and I are best
friends .Our birthdays are on
the same days ,so every year we have a birthday party together. But this year ,we
had a costume party instead.
While we were writing
the invitations ,my mum came in and asked ,”Why not invite John?” John had been
in our class for only a few months ,but he already getting better grades in math
than anyone else in class .I
wrinkled(皱起)my nose, ”Mum ,he
wears the same pants to school every day. How could he even
afford a costume?” Mum said nothing .The next day ,mum
gave me a envelope with a shopping certificate in it .” Ithought it would be nice for you to give this to John embarrassed
.We discussed it for a
long time .Finally ,Betty and I
had a good idea.
On the day of our
party ,kids arrived, dressed differently .John arrived ,in an
old sheet (床单),but still in the
same brown pants as usual. We danced, ate
snacks and played games in groups .Before eating the
birthday cake ,Betty said in a loud voice ” Now it is time for the great prize
game .It is the following
riddle ……”It was a math game ,None of us was surprised when John came up with
the right answer first and walked off with the envelope .
Everything went on
well as we planned. John wore a new pair of pants and a new
shirt the next week .He felt happy
.So did we.
When we help others ,we need to find a proper way ,or we may hurt them in another way
