　　Our family was friends with Betty for many years. Over the years, we shared phone calls, birthday cards, and much more. Every year, Betty sent our youngest son Brandon a birthday card with five dollars in it. She did this until he graduated(毕业) from high school.
　　One year, not long after her birthday, I called to see how she was and ask her if she did everything special for her birthday. I was surprised when Betty didn't answer the phone. Instead, her daughter Carol did. Carol told me her mother was ill and had gone downhill fast. She was in hospice care (临终关怀). Carol gave the phone to Betty, I talked to her and let her know that we loved her.
　　As soon as I got off the phone, I sent a text to Brandon and let him know Betty wasn't doing well. Brandon stopped what he was doing and sent flowers to Betty.
　　You can imagine how proud I was of Brandon when Carol called the next day. She told me that Betty loved the flowers very much. Just a few days later, Betty died.
　　It's never "too soon" to be kind to others. You never know when it might be "too late" instead.

21．　　Hello, I'm Mr Black. Last Saturday I went to the park with my family to enjoy a relaxing time. My six-year-old son met a boy there. They didn't know each other. My son had a soccer ball and they played it together. They had a good time playing soccer.
　　After they finished playing, we sat under a big tree and started to have lunch. But the boy didn't leave. Maybe he came to the park alone and didn't bring lunch. My son wanted to invite him to have lunch with us and I agreed. My son gave him some delicious food and the boy ate it up. My son even shared his favorite cakes with the boy. They both looked very happy.
　　After lunch, the boy went away without saying "Thank you". I was a little disappointed (失望的), but I knew my son was very happy. What's more, he learned about sharing.
　　I think sharing with others can bring us joy and happiness. When we're happy, share with others and let them feel it, too. When we re sad, it's also a good idea to share the sad things with friends. I'm glad that my son has learned that sharing is important.
