Question

About a week ago, when I was playing basketball at our city park, I noticed a small group of boys picking on(作弄) a smaller boy. They were calling his names and even pushed him to the ground and kicked something in his face. When I saw that, I walked over to the group.

I stepped      them and the smaller boy, and asked them politely what this boy had done . One of the boys replied, “He’s weird.” Then I asked one of the boys if he thought his friend was weird, and the         was “No.” So, I asked another boy what the word “weird”      , and he said, “Different.” That was my cue(暗示). I told them that everyone was       , and that they all looked just as different to the other boy as he did to them. They all stood       for a moment, and then the most amazing thing happened. One of the boys helped the small boy off the ground and then said sorry to him. He even      him to play with them.

I thanked the boy for being so brave. As I looked around, I realized that there were many other people at the park         no one else had stopped to help this boy. I felt happy that the boy was       to stand up against his friends to help someone in need, but I felt sad that      else had even taken a second look.

I hope that I’ve helped them realize that they could make a        with a little effort and maybe next time they will be the ones who choose to help.
