I grew up in a middle-class household in Australia. In terms of safety and standard of living，a comfortable lifestyle is all I ever knew，and as a result，I was not aware just how lucky I was.
It was a Monday，and a teacher told us about an oversea mission trip to Cambodia. I had never been overseas before，and I knew absolutely nothing about Cambodia，but something inside of me knew l needed to go on this trip.
I spent the next few months working on S7. 25 hourly wage at an awful fast food chain，saving every penny I earned. Just days before the trip was set to depart，I managed to hit my target.
I will never forget the moment I nervously stepped off the plane in Cambodia. I vividly recall the sight of malnourished （营养不良）children begging for money tearing at my heart. I saw what true poverty looked like as we went to hand food packages out at a massive garbage dump in the city，home to thousands of families，many of whom were forced to seek for food among the rubbish.
On the following days，I played with children who，despite living in hard conditions, were overflowing with joy and happiness. I met families who，despite having nothing，were some of the kindest people I'd ever met. For the first time，my eyes were opened to the reality that happiness is not defined by money. People here were rich in relationships and community，and shared with each other the little that they had.
Through the trip，I began to see the value of learning from people of other races，cultures and religions. I finally saw that there was a much bigger world outside of my little one，and experienced first-hand the beauty of human diversity.

Mom noticed that something was wrong when I started getting so thirsty. I’d have a lot to drink before bed, which was unusual for me. One time, I opened a big container of apple juice and kept refilling my glass. Before I knew it, I’d drunk the entire container! My mom called my doctor. I then had a few blood tests, and the results were certain — I had diabetes (糖尿病), which meant that the amount of sugar in my blood was very high. That can be dangerous, so I had to learn how to control my blood-sugar level.
My eating habits had to change in a big way. With diabetes, I can’t eat a lot of sugar or carbohydrates (碳水化合物). I have to figure out exactly how much sugar I plan to eat, and then I get an injection of insulin (注射胰岛素) before the meal to help my body process the food. Also, I test my blood-sugar level often. I’m always trying to keep my blood-sugar at a healthy level. The level can drop when I exercise, but that doesn’t keep me out of gym class or off the basketball court — I just keep some juice boxes around to boost my blood-sugar if I need to.
It’s a lot of work and not a lot of fun — to keep track of everything, but I’ve gotten used to my new habits. I was a little scared at first because I wasn’t sure how my life would change. Once I knew what I needed to do, though, it wasn’t a big deal. My life is different now from what it was before, but it has become completely regular to me.

We should know how to avoid illnesses. Keeping hands clean are one of the most basic ways to prevent illnesses, especial when COVID-19 is widely spreading. Yesterday I taught my 3-year-old sister what to wash hands properly. Firstly, I made her to wet her hands under running water and apply soap to them. After she rubbed her hands well with soap to at least twenty second, I told her to wash off all of the soap. Lastly, I gave him a clean towel to dry her hands. She was very glad but showed me her clean hands. Look at her smiling face, I felt so happy that I gave her new storybook.

_______, he watched as several horsemen approached. He let the first one pass by without an effort to attract his _______. Then another passed by, and another. Finally, as the last rider _______ him, the old man _______ the rider’s eye and said, “Sir, would you mind giving an old man a ride to the other side? ”
Pausing his horse, the rider replied, “Sure! Hop aboard.” Seeing the old man _______ to lift his half-frozen body from the ground, the horseman helped him _______ the horse.
As they got close to the destination, the horseman’s _______ caused him to ask, “Sir, I’m curious why? On such a bitter winter night, I ________ that you let several other riders pass by. You would wait and ask the last rider. ________ I had refused and left you there?”
The old man replied, “I ________ the eyes of the other riders and immediately saw there was no ________ for my situation. It was ________ to ask them for a ride. But when I met your eyes, ________ was obvious. I knew, your gentle spirit would give me ________ in my time of need.”
Those heartwarming comments ________ the horseman deeply. “I’m most grateful for what you have said,” he told the old man. “May I never get too ________ in my own affairs that I fail to respond to the ________ of others with kindness.” With that, Thomas Jefferson turned his horse around and ________ his way to the White House.
