Willard Franklin came to my class half a year ago. But since the first day, he locked himself in his world and 1 spoke to others. As his teacher, I tried to start a talk with him but 2 . It seemed as if he just didn't want to break his silence.
Before the Christmas, we got the news of the yearly collection of money for the poor in our school. "Christmas is a season of 3 , " I told my students. "By giving a little money, you will help buy some toys, food and clothing for these students in 4 . The collection will start tomorrow. "
But the next morning I found that almost 5 forgot about the collection expect Willard. He came up to my desk with his head down. He put two coins into the small box.
"I don't need milk for lunch, " he said 6 .
After school I couldn't help sharing what had happened in the morning with our headmaster.
"I think Willard may be 7 to become a part of our class. "
"I am glad to hear that, " he nodded. "And I just got a list of the 8 families in our school who need help most. Here, take a 9 . "
As I sat down to read, I found Willard Franklin was at the top of the list. At that moment, I started to know Willard for the first time —a cold face with a 10 heart. Since then, I learnt that whether rich or poor, every child has a kind heart.
