Every once in a while, you hear a story that truly amazes you. It makes you wonder. And it
makes you think. Here is a story that everyone is talking about. S 71 in the city has been donating money to the Seniors' Home. But no one knows who he is.
Twenty years ago, when the first donation arrived, it seemed a bit out of the ordinary because it wasn't c 72 to donate that much money-over one thousand yuan. The Seniors' Home office tried to contact the person who named himself Xiao Lei. But they found out that the address and the name provided did not exist. It seemed that this person s 73 wished to keep his donation quiet. Then a few months later, another anonymous (匿名的)donation arrived, sent from another post office. And then, another.
After many years of receiving the donations, the whole town was c 74 to discover the true identity(身份)of the person behind these acts of kindness. Was this person rich or poor? What made him do this? Why not come forward and be honoured for what he was doing? A journalist even wrote an article in the local newspaper with the headline: Where are you, Xiao Lei?

Helping others is w 76 spending after all, and please stop looking for him. He did not want to make a name for himself, or to be recognized for what he did. Therefore, the Seniors' Home office a 77 the fact that they could never know the person's true identity. When a second article in the local newspaper revealed(透露)the end of the search, people were deeply moved and inspired.
Following in his footsteps, many people have started donating some of their own money to help those with less. It has become part of their lives.
