On a hot July afternoon, my mother and I were walking back home from a pizza store. We had bought many things. I was feeling really tired as I was carrying our shopping bag. I decided to throw something away. I was walking towards a dustbin(垃圾箱) when I noticed a poor man walking out of the restaurant in front of us. He walked to the nearby dustbin and started looking through it.
I suddenly felt very sorry because I was going to throw away a new drink just because it was too heavy. I walked up to him and gave the drink and some bread to him, which surprised him. The man looked at me in surprise and took what I gave him. A big smile appeared on his face. I felt I couldn`t be happier with myself. But then he said.”Wow, this is my son’s lucky day!”

The look of the man`s happiness appears in my mind whenever I have the chance to do something nice.
