Last summer a snowstorm hit a small town nearby. I saw, in the local newspaper, a picture of a young woman, a little boy and a younger standing in front of a totally destroyed(摧毁的) house, eyes wide open with fear. I noticed their clothing closely matched ours. This would be a good chance to teach my children to help those unlucky ones.
I their situation to my seven-year-old twins, Brad and Martin, and encouraged the boys to donate some of their less favorite toys. My little daughter, Meghan, quietly when the boys piled up the old toys. After a while, Meghan walked up with Lucy, her much-loved doll, hugged tightly(紧紧抱在) in her arms. She put her round little into Lucy’s, giving her a final kiss, and then put her down on top of the others. “Oh, honey”, I said, “you don’t have to give Lucy. You love her so much.”
Meghan nodded, trying to hold back her tears(眼泪). “Lucy makes me happy, Mummy. Maybe she’ll make that little girl happy, too.”
The boys watched in surprise as their baby sister put Lucy in the . When I stared(凝视) at Meghan, thinking over my donation, they went, without a word, to their room and both with their loved items.

Amazed, I took my old jacket out of the box, and put in it a new one I had bought the week before, hoping the young woman would it as much.
Anyone can give away what they no longer require, but true generosity is giving what you . I, who had meant to teach, was taught.

During breaks they do not go to the canteen (餐厅) to eat snacks, to the school hall for some exercise. The school also talks to their parents to see if they can plan a healthier diet for the children. Sometimes the parents it is their cooking that is causing the problem and then it is easy to persuade (说服) them to change. Some children find it to lose weight, but they are told not to give up easily. A big is made to interest them in sport. Fun and games are used to attract the students to running and jumping. One school gives its students a smart student card which they can use to buy books and food. Parents can a list of the food the child is eating and discuss it at home. Fitness classes may be held on Saturdays for those who need them. Parents come and help with ball games and races.
