Question

Have you ever not wanted to do something so badly? Well, that’s how I     about joining Madcaps, a mothers and daughters’ club assisting philanthropies (慈善事业).     , my feeling changed finally. Now I believe if you adopt an     attitude, you might just     enjoying it.

Six months ago, my mom told me the club asked us to work as       at Saint Vincent de Paul Homeless shelter. That meant I had to       in the dirty homeless shelter for at least 20 hours.

The first time we went there, a lady led us to the kitchen where we     my five fellow Madcaps classmates — they also wore the same expression. Since I’m usually socially     , I had never talked with any of them earlier. Worse still, my mom was asked to help outside the kitchen, leaving me totally     to serve food with them. Soon large numbers of homeless families     in like rushing river. A little girl, around 5 years old, walked up to me. I     her a cold sandwich. She took it and joined her family quickly. As she walked away, I     she was wearing a coat, clearly too big for her, hanging     on her thin body, and couldn’t help thinking how much I had     with her. It suddenly struck me that how       I am.

After that moment I had a     of heart. Now I love Madcaps and don’t miss one meeting. I have     awkwardness when communicating and have many friends. And this year I am sure I will do more than the     20 hours of philanthropies.

So that is how I have made a          by doing one thing I don’t want to do. If you have an open     about things you can accomplish more and become a well-rounded (全面的) person.
