It was full of colorful flowers and tall trees. Every weekend, many children from the neighborhood would play in the garden. They ran on the soft grass, picked small flowers and laughed loudly. Mr. Green never stopped them—he loved seeing the children’s happy faces. One day, Mr. Green had to go abroad for work. He asked his brother, Mr. Black, to look after the garden. Mr. Black was a selfish man. When he saw the children playing in the garden, he got very angry. "Get out of here! This is my brother’s garden, not a playground for you!" he shouted. The children were scared and ran away quickly. Then Mr. Black built a high fence around the garden and locked the gate. From then on, no children could get in. Soon, the garden changed. The flowers began to die, the grass turned yellow, and even the birds stopped coming. Mr. Black felt lonely. He sat in the garden alone, wondering why it was not as beautiful as before. A month later, Mr. Green came back. He was surprised to see the messy garden. When he heard what Mr. Black had done, he said gently, "Brother, a garden is not just for flowers. It’s for joy and sharing. Let the children come back." Mr. Black felt ashamed. He took down the fence and opened the gate. The children came back, and the garden became lively and beautiful again. 1.

They shouted at each other and even wanted to fight. The Li family had a relative named Li Ming, who worked in the capital. They wrote a letter to Li Ming, asking him to help them win the land. A few days later, Li Ming’s reply arrived. It was a short poem: For a small piece of land, we argue day and night, It’s not worth losing our friendship, which is so bright. Step back a little, give in a bit, Kindness and respect will make life fit. After reading the poem, the Li family felt very sorry. They realized that friendship was more important than the land. So they decided to give up the land and step back three meters. When the Wang family saw this, they were deeply moved. They also stepped back three meters. Soon, a wide road appeared between the two houses. People in the town often walked on this road and talked about the story of the two families. Later, this road became known as "Kindness Road". It reminded people to be polite and modesty to each other. 6. Why did the Lis and the Wangs argue? A. Because they hated each other B. Because of a small piece of land C.

This not only solved the problem but also won respect from others. In our daily life, we may meet many small problems with our classmates, friends or neighbors.

They help us live a happier life and build good relationships. Sharing can bring joy to both ourselves and others. When we share our things with friends or classmates, we can play more happily and make more friends. A garden shared with children is more lively than one kept to oneself. Being modesty can solve many arguments. When people argue over small things, stepping back a little can make a big difference. The story of "Kindness Road" tells us that modesty can turn arguments into friendship. Being kind to others is also very important. Kindness encourages more kindness. If you are kind to others, they will be kind to you too. Selfishness, however, can make us feel lonely and lose friends.
