The next day, the young artist came to the gate of the subway station again. He put down his hat as usual. Beside the hat was a large piece of paper with some words on it. It said, “Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat by mistake. Please come to claim(认领) it soon.” Before long, the violinist was surrounded with the people who were all attracted by the words and wondered what it could be.

I live with my grandmother in a Beijing yard house. One day last year, I was surprised to see a big foreigner coming out of the house next door to ours. He was very tall with short brown hair and a pair of glasses.
The first time I saw him, I was too shy to speak to him. “My English is too bad!” I thought. My grandmother told me that he had just moved into our yard. “I don’t like it!” she said.“Foreigners aren’t like us. Maybe he’ll play loud music and have parties every night! I’m sure he’s going to cause trouble.”
Several days later, I met the foreigner as I was walking home after work. “Hello!” he said(in Chinese!). “My name’s Tony. I’ve just moved into the house next door to yours.” While I was wondering what to say, he continued, “There’s a nice bar down the road. Why don’t you and your family come and have dinner with me?” “Bars are bad places,” said my grandmother when I told her, but we decided to go.
The bar was not at all what I had expected. It was in a beautiful little yard house, with several large bookshelves and pictures of Tibet on the walls. Several Chinese people and foreigners were sitting drinking or reading books. I noticed that some of the foreigners were speaking Chinese in a low voice to each other!
“Oh, what a civilized place!” my grandmother exclaimed.
The bar served special “hutong pizzas”. As we ate, Tony told us about himself——he is an English expert in environment. He always likes to be quiet. My grandmother said to me, “He really seems like a very nice young man.”

On a Friday night, a poor young artist stood at the gate of the subway station, playing his violin. The music was so great that some people slowed down to listen and put some money into the hat of the young man.
The next day, the young artist came to the gate of the subway station again. He put down his hat as usual. Beside the hat was a large piece of paper with some words on it. It said, “Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat by mistake. Please come to claim(认领) it soon.” Before long, the violinist was surrounded with the people who were all attracted by the words and wondered what it could be. After a while a man rushed through the crowd to the violinist, took his shoulders and said, “Yes, it’s you. I knew you are an honest man and would certainly come here.” The young violinist asked calmly, “Are you Mr George Sang?” The man nodded. The violinist asked, “Did you lose something?” “Lottery. It’s lottery,” said the man. The violinist took out a lottery ticket with Sang’s name on it. Sang took the lottery ticket and kissed it, then he danced happily with the violinist.
The story turned out to be this?押 Sang was an office worker. He bought a lottery ticket a few days ago. The awards opened yesterday and he won a prize of $500,000.

That morning, he was going to fly to Vienna for advanced studies. However, when he was cleaning up he found the lottery ticket. Thinking that the owner would return to look for it, he cancelled the flight and came back to the gate of the subway station.

I live with my grandmother in a Beijing yard house. One day last year, I was surprised to see a big foreigner coming out of the house next door to ours. He was very tall with short brown hair and a pair of glasses.
The first time I saw him, I was too shy to speak to him. “My English is too bad!” I thought. My grandmother told me that he had just moved into our yard. “I don’t like it!” she said.“Foreigners aren’t like us. Maybe he’ll play loud music and have parties every night! I’m sure he’s going to cause trouble.”
Several days later, I met the foreigner as I was walking home after work. “Hello!” he said(in Chinese!). “My name’s Tony. I’ve just moved into the house next door to yours.” While I was wondering what to say, he continued, “There’s a nice bar down the road. Why don’t you and your family come and have dinner with me?” “Bars are bad places,” said my grandmother when I told her, but we decided to go.
The bar was not at all what I had expected. It was in a beautiful little yard house, with several large bookshelves and pictures of Tibet on the walls. Several Chinese people and foreigners were sitting drinking or reading books. I noticed that some of the foreigners were speaking Chinese in a low voice to each other!
“Oh, what a civilized place!” my grandmother exclaimed.
The bar served special “hutong pizzas”. As we ate, Tony told us about himself——he is an English expert in environment. He always likes to be quiet. My grandmother said to me, “He really seems like a very nice young man.”

Helping Others Can Help You
Volunteering has a meaningful, positive effect on your community. But did you know that it can have many benefits for you, too?
No matter what you do as a volunteer?押 to help clean the rooms for the old, to do something for the disabled, or to teach the children to sing, you’ll gain some valuable skills and experience. You can use these skills and experience to enrich your study or your future career. Volunteering brings together a variety of people. You will meet some interesting ones. And maybe you’ll learn many useful things that you can’t learn at school.
It can also help you give back to society, break down barriers of misunderstanding, and even have fun.
It is a good way for us students to learn and communicate by volunteering, and it is of great importance.
