After the winter vacation, I had to move to a new city with my parents. On the first day to my new school, it was cold and 1 . I was walking alone slowly 2 worrying about something in my new school. It was early and there weren't many people on the road. 3 , a girl who was riding a bike in the snow fell down. She was 4 hard to stand up but fell again. 5 thinking, I went over to help her quickly. She said "thank you" with a 6 and then left. Her smile warmed me a lot.
After I got to school, the teacher led me to the classroom and 7 me to the class. Then he asked me to 8 down beside a girl. I felt so 9 that I didn't dare (敢) to look at her. Soon the first class, English, started. Their textbooks were 10 from those in my old school. As I was 11 what to do, an English book appeared in front of me. "Let's 12 it," the girl beside me said. "Hi, I'm Carrie." I looked up. To 13 surprise, it was the girl I helped this morning. From 14 on, we became good friends.
From that I learned: to help 15 is actually to help ourselves!
