The sun was shining when I got on No.151 Bus. We passengers sat jammed together in heavy clothes. No one spoke. That’s one of the 36 rules, which we take for granted(对…不予重视). 37 we see the same faces every day, we prefer to 38 behind our newspapers. People who sit so close together are using those thin sheets of newsprint to keep their 39 .
As the bus came near the Mile, a 40 suddenly rang out “ 41 ! This is your driver speaking.” We looked at the back of the driver’s head. “Put your papers down. All of you.” The 42 came down. “Now, turn and face the person next to you. Go __43 .”
Surprisingly we all did it. Still no one smiled. I faced an older woman, her head wrapped in a red scarf(围巾).I saw her 44 every day. Our eyes met .We waited for the next 45 from the driver. “Now repeat after me. Good morning neighbor!”
Our voice were 46 .For many of us, these were the 47 words we had spoken that day. But we said them together, like 48 , to the strangers beside us. We couldn’t help 49 .There was the feeling of relief, that we were not being held up（抢劫）. But more, there was the sense of ice being 50 . “Good morning, neighbor.” It was not so 51 after all. Some of us repeated it, others shook hands, many laughed. The bus driver said nothing more. He didn’t 52 to. Not a single newspaper went back up. I heard laughter, a warm sound I had never heard before in 53 .
When I reached my stop, I said 54 to my seatmate, and then jumped off the bus. That day was 55 off better than most.

One day, when I was in high school, I saw a kid named Kyle walking home from school with all his books, I thought to myself, “ 11 would anyone bring home all his books for the weekend? He must really be 12 .” As I was walking, I saw several kids running toward him. They ran at him, 13 all his books out of his arms and he fell down in the dirt. His glasses went 14 and landed in the grass.
My heart went out to him. So, I ran over to him. 15 I handed him his glasses, he looked at me and said, “Hey, thanks!”
I helped him pick up his books, and asked him where he lived. As it 16 , he lived near me. We talked all the way home. Over the next four years, Kyle and I became best friends.
Kyle was the 17 student of our class, one of those guys that really found themselves during high school. Therefore he had the 18 to prepare a graduation speech. On the graduation day, I could see that he was 19 . So, I patted him on the back and said, “Hey, big guy, you’ll be great!” He looked at me and smiled.
He cleared his throat, and began. “Graduation is a time to 20 those who helped you make it through those 21 years. Your parents, your teachers… but mostly your friends, I am here to tell all of you that being a friend to someone is the best 22 you can give him.”
I just looked at my friend with disbelief as he told the story of the first day we met. He had planned to 23 himself over the weekend and was carrying his books home. “Thankfully, nothing happened. My friend 24 me from doing the unspeakable.”
Not until that moment did I realize that you should never underestimate(低估) the 25 of your actions. With one small gesture you can change a person’s life. For better or for worse.
