There was a time when I had to count every cent I spent. T had to count the cost in my (头) while shopping. I would stand there and add up each thing over and over.
l remember one Christmas Eve when I(进人) the supermarket to do some shopping. I stood by the fridge and counted up the cost of the things I wanted to buy.
The(总数;合计) was too high and l couldn't buy everything. l looked through each thing，trying to decide what to put back. I kept everything that everyone(别的;其他的) in my family loved but had to give up the one thing l loved—a bag of chicken. l hated the feeling of not being able to(买得起) it but it was necessary.
That night，someone kept (敲) at my door. It was strange because it was very cold and late. I went to the door，opened it，and found bags of food on my (前面的) steps. Nobody was there. On the top of the first bag，l saw the bag of chicken，the same kind I had put back hours before.
l cannot (表达) the feeling of learning that even at my loneliest, I wasn't alone. I still don't know who left all that food(秘密地)，but I will never forget that feeling. It shows me that while there may not be areal Santa Claus，there are certainly angels (在……之间)us，bringing love and kindness to the world.
