“I can’t believe what I’m hearing!” I thought to myself. Jeff was the last candidate (候选人)for president of Student Council. My best friend Tony came to me and said, “I’m sorry, Mike. I really thought you should be 1 .”
Later that day, I happened to pass Jeff in the dining room. I offered him a 2 “Congratulations” and walked to my usual table. To my surprise, Jeff put his plate beside mine.
“I’m, er…I’m just wondering if you would …consider coming to work on my team,” he said 3 . “You are really smart, and you would be a great manager.”
“I don’t think so,” I replied, feeling unsure.
“Well, if you change your mind, we are meeting tomorrow,” he said before moving to another table.
All that night, I thought about the offer from Jeff. Maybe being a part of the election process(选举过程) would give me a 4 to make important changes at our school. I decided to join them.
My first goal was to 5 an attractive advertisement. Within a few days, we designed a poster with Jeff’s pictures showing him in a number of activities. No one could walk through any hallway 6 passing Jeff’s smiling face.
My next step was to 7 which new activities students would like to have at our school. Many of them wanted a chess club and a volleyball team.
With the information I had collected, Jeff met with the headmaster. The headmaster 8 to add these activities to our school program.
An eighth grader said, “It’ll be like attending a new school with Jeff as president.”
Hearing these words made my heart filled with 9 . I had wanted to become president of Student Council to make a difference. I achieved that and more by working as a member of Jeff’s team.

Each day I took the same route to work and passed by a security guard (保安）. 1 greeted everyone walking by and made small talk with many of the passers-by and wishing them well. His simple “hello” made people feel 2 . His cheerful smile became a part of my day. When he was absent, many people noticed it, and I felt a little bit empty.
The first few times, I didn’t say hello back to him when he greeted me. I was 3 in my own world. On Monday the security guard asked me:“How was your weekend?” I told him about my visit to California, to see my mother, who had colon cancer. I 4 how I visited her each month. “The time with my mother is so precious(珍贵的), 5 I know that each time may be the last.”
He listened like a close friend I’d known for years. He felt my 6 and my love. He shared how he had lost his father to cancer two years before. He said, “I understand what you are going through. My father passed away while I was serving in Germany. Because of some reasons I was unable to fly back in time. I was unable to say goodbye to him. I wish I could have been with him, given him a hug, and told him I loved him. You are really lucky to have the gift of 7 .”
As I walked away, I realized I did not even know his name. The following day, on my way to work, I said: “After we spent all that time 8 yesterday, I still don’t know your name.” He answered, “Gary.” I responded back, “I’m Deborah.”
After that, we talked and shared stories about our weekends, dreams and families.
Later, Gary got 9 a new job and moved away. It’s been several years since I last spoke to him, yet the memory feels like yesterday. Gary reached out to me, 10 me and made my morning the best part of the day. I experienced the beauty of friendship and love.
In the business of life, we often forget to wish a stranger hello although how easy it is, and how great and lasting a 11 it can make. When you say hello to a stranger you become like a pebble(鹅卵石) thrown into a pond. With each ripple (波纹）you create, you spread love that continues to 12 .
