I thought to myself, “Why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday?” I had quite a weekend planned (parties and a football game with my friends tomorrow afternoon), so I shrugged my shoulders(耸耸肩) and went on.

As I was walking, I saw some kids run at him, knocking all his books out of his arms and tripping (绊倒) him, so he fell to the ground. His glasses went flying and I saw them   36   in the grass. He looked up and I saw terrible   37    in his eyes. My heart went out to him. As I   38   him his glasses, he looked at me and said, “Hey, thanks!” There was a big smile on his face.

I helped him pick up his books, and asked him where he lived. We    39   all the way home, and I carried some of his books. I asked him if he wanted to play   40   with my friends. He said yes.

I’m going to tell you a story.” I just looked at my friend as he told the story of the first day we    44   . He had planned to kill himself over the weekend. He looked at me and gave me a little smile. “Thankfully, I was   45   .” I heard the gasp (喘息) go through the crowd as this    46   boy told us all about his weakest moment.

Not until that moment did I realize its depth. With one small action, you can change a person’s life.
