However, throughout the years, Bert remained his closest friend. They shared their love of football and enjoyed talking about the Sydney Swans, their favorite team. Two weeks ago, I took my seat at Sydney Cricket Ground to watch the match. The old stadium (体育场) was full of fans. Shortly into the second quarter, I heard someone describing the match.

Usually, he went to the stadium and listened to the match on the radio. However, in the second quarter of that match, the radio broke down. That was when his friend Bert came in. I hardly paid attention to the team’s star player. Instead, I was listening to Bert and Mark. “What’s happening now?” Mark asked. “Don’t worry, Mark,” Bert said. “Okay. Our favourite player has got it. Will he go for it? He’s going for it his tenth goal! He is on fire!” Mark listened carefully. He was lost in the magic of the football brought to life by his friend.

I’d like to share a touching story about a stranger’s kindness. That day, I was on my way to school with my arms full of classroom supplies and donuts(必需品和甜甜圈) for my students.

To my surprise, he asked me if I was a teacher. I nodded my head and he asked me if the donuts were for my students. I said yes. Guess what happened next? He took 50 dollars out of his bag and put it on top of the donut boxes in my arms. He said he wanted to pay for the kids’ treats and then he thanked me for giving him such a good chance. I stood there in surprise. I wished to find the right words to ask this man his name, to shake his hand, and to show my thanks instead of standing there and watching him walk away. I put my headphones back in and told my mother what happened as I walked to my school. I shared this touching story online.

The disease took away the boy’ eyesight, part of his hearing and his ability to play his favorite sport. However, throughout the years, Bert remained his closest friend. They shared their love of football and enjoyed talking about the Sydney Swans, their favorite team. Two weeks ago, I took my seat at Sydney Cricket Ground to watch the match. The old stadium (体育场) was full of fans. Shortly into the second quarter, I heard someone describing the match. It was Bert who was bringing the match to life. I turned and saw him.

However, in the second quarter of that match, the radio broke down. That was when his friend Bert came in. I hardly paid attention to the team’s star player. Instead, I was listening to Bert and Mark. “What’s happening now?” Mark asked. “Don’t worry, Mark,” Bert said. “Okay. Our favourite player has got it. Will he go for it? He’s going for it his tenth goal! He is on fire!” Mark listened carefully. He was lost in the magic of the football brought to life by his friend.
