It was a fine summer afternoon. Sam was going home from school. He walked along the road slowly, reading a book. He liked it very much. When he came to the high road, there was a blind man, holding out his hat. The poor man said, "I haven't eaten anything since yesterday. Please give me some money. I want to buy some bread." But Sam had just spent his money on the book. So He walked on feeling very sad.
Soon after, a fine carriage (马车) came up, and in it were Harry and his mother. The blind man still stood there and ★ . "Let us give the poor man something," said Harry to his mom. His mother agreed with her son and she found some coins in her bag. She passed them to Harry. Harry stopped the carriage. However, he did not put them into the man's hat. He threw them into the bush (灌木丛) beside the poor man. How could the blind man find them?
As Sam turned back to look at the fine carriage, he saw Harry throwing the coins into the bush. He was surprised at Harry's action. So he walked back at once and helped the man look for the money until he found all the coins.
As the blind man held the coins, he smiled. It touched Sam's heart. At that moment, Sam knew that kindness wasn't always about big actions; sometimes, it was the simple act of giving a helping hand that could make a difference.
