So his family moved to another city.It was Saturday . When Terry and his wife were busy putting their things in their new home,the lights suddenly and they were forced to stop work.Terry was sorry to have to bring along some candles.Just then he heard light on his door.
“Who is it?” he wondered.Terry knew else in the new city, and this was the moment he especially hated to be .He opened the door impatiently. At the door was a little , shyly asking,“Sir, do you have ? I’m your neighbor.”“No.”answered Terry angrily.He shut the door .
After a while the door was knocked again.He opened it and found the same little girl outside.But this time she was two candles radiating(放光)red light.she said,“My grandma told me the neighbor downstairs might need candles.She sent me here to give you these”
At that moment Terry suddenly realized what his failure in life. It was his indifference(冷漠)and unkindness to other people.The person who had fooled him in life was actually nobody else 14 himself, for his eyes had been covered by his mind.
