B

    Fifteen years ago, I began to work as a reporter.The job is sometimes difficult, but for most of the time it's amazing because it taught me many unforgettable lessons.

    In India, I visited a city.There were many homeless children living in the street.But a kind­hearted Indian woman called Rosa opened a home for them.She looked after about two hundred kids, fed them, taught them and gave them hope.

    Another time, I was in Japan after a terrible earthquake(地震)．I met a lady.Her house fell down.Her son was missing and many people thought it was impossible to find him.But the lady did not give up hope.She kept moving heavy bricks(砖块) for four days by herself.She did not stop until she found her son.He was still alive!

    Then in China, I met a young boy with a serious illness.He had to have twenty operations in hospital.But when I met him, he was still smiling!

    Now I always remember the courage(勇气) of those people when I meet difficulties in my life.
