When David was young, he often provided the old people in this mountain village with whatever they wanted as soon as possible.

At that time, he noticed that many old people had much difficulty in buying what they needed, especially after heavy snow. He would knock on the old people’s doors on Saturday to ask if they needed anything from the shop. And the next day he would went down the hill to the shop. The shop was far away from the village. He would bring back heavy things for them every time, which made him very tired on his way back. And very often he was still on his way back when the sun had set down.

His friends asked him what he was doing and after some time some of them joined in. It became a habit as time went by. He never asked for money for doing it, but some old people would put some coins in his pocket without telling him. But later when he found them, he would buy something useful for them with the money.

After he went to college, many of these elderly people would ask his mother about him. Only after the conversations did his mother know what David used to do for them. David had never told his mother what he had done!

Some people have a very poor sense of direction.Unluckily,I am one of them.I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.

When I was a little girl, I never dared to ask strangers the way.And so I used to walk round in circle and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to.

Now,I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions,but I often receive helpless or even wrong information. So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions.If anyone asks me the way somewhere,I would say,"sorry,I am a stranger here."

Once on my way to work,I was stopped by a man.He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building.I gave him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps,I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time to turn back and look for him.I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn't want to keep him waiting.

When I just got to my office,the secretary showed in the man who had asked me for directions.Imagine how embarrassed I was and how surprised he was when we saw each other at the first sight!
