My father is always ready to help people around him. He often helps elderly neighbors with heavy things in his free time. What's more, he has donated blood more than 20 times, which can save many lives. He believes that being useful to society is the true value of life.
I am greatly influenced by him. I have made up my mind to be a person like him — warm-hearted and responsible. I will try my best to help others and make my own life meaningful.

Be like a peanut
Peanuts are common plants in our daily life. Unlike beautiful flowers that show off their charm above the ground, peanut plants hide their fruits deep in the soil. They may not look attractive, but they are extremely useful: people can eat them directly, make cooking oil from them, or process them into different kinds of tasty food.
What we can learn from peanuts is that being useful is far more important than being pretty on the outside. Many people around us are just like peanuts: they work quietly without asking for praise, but make great contributions to our lives with their efforts.
Being like a peanut means being a useful and low-key person. I will focus on improving my own ability instead of paying too much attention to my appearance. I will try my best to help others and make my own life warm and valuable.

Dear Tom,
I'm glad to receive your letter. You asked who I admire most in your letter. For me, the person I admire most is Zhang Guimei, the founder of the first free high school for girls in Yunnan Province.
For many years, Zhang has been working tirelessly to help girls in poor mountain areas get proper education. She met countless difficulties, but she never gave up. With her continuous effort, hundreds of girls have entered colleges and changed their fates. She devotes almost all her life to the education of girls in poor areas.
Zhang’s story has greatly influenced me. It makes me understand the true power of education and the meaning of persistence. I have made up my mind to study hard from now on, and I hope I can help more people like her in the future.
Yours,
Li Hua

The person who has influenced me most is my English teacher, Ms. Wang. She is a warm-hearted and hard-working teacher who always cares about every student’s growth.

With her help, I made great progress in the following months.
What I learn from her is that we should never give up when facing difficulties. I am greatly influenced by her spirit and have made up my mind to be a person like her — patient, responsible and always ready to help others.

Beauty in My Daily Life
Many people think beauty only lies in great events or amazing natural views, but I believe the true beauty of life hides in small ordinary things around us.
One rainy morning, I forgot to bring my umbrella and was worried about getting wet on the way to class. To my surprise, a classmate I hardly knew shared her umbrella with me and walked me all the way to the classroom. Another day, when I felt sick at school, my deskmate took care of me carefully and helped me catch up with the lessons later.
These small warm moments make my life full of beauty. I realize that beauty is not something far away. It is the kindness between people that makes daily life warm and meaningful.

Ordinary but valuable
Fan Jinshi, known as the “Daughter of Dunhuang”, is a great example of ordinary people with great value. She devoted most of her life to protecting the ancient Dunhuang Caves. After over 30 years of hard work, she led her team to build the Digital Dunhuang website, helping the whole world enjoy this amazing cultural treasure.
Being ordinary does not mean being useless. Many common people around us make great contributions in their own positions. Working hard in daily work can create huge value for the whole society. Devoting ourselves to small things can also make a big difference to others’ lives.
As a student, I will study hard and try to be a useful person. I will start from small things, like helping classmates and taking part in volunteer work, to make my life ordinary but full of value.

Hello, everyone!
I'm Li Hua. It's my great honor to give a speech here. Today my topic is how to live a meaningful life.
In my opinion, a meaningful life does not mean being rich or famous. It means being useful to others and making a positive difference to the world. We don’t need to do great amazing things; small acts of kindness can also make life full of meaning.
As middle school students, we can start with small things around us. First, we can study hard to improve ourselves, so that we can contribute to society in the future. Second, we can help people in need, such as helping classmates with their lessons or taking part in community volunteer activities.
Let’s take action right now. Try our best to live a meaningful life!

Small acts, big warmth
Many people think only great deeds can bring warmth to the world, but I believe small acts in daily life can also have big and lasting power.
Last winter, I met an old grandma carrying a heavy shopping bag on my way home. She looked tired and could hardly walk fast on the icy road. I went up to her and offered to help her carry the bag. I walked slowly with her to her home, and she thanked me warmly with a big smile on her face.
That small thing made me feel really happy and proud. I realize that every small act of kindness can bring warmth to others. We don’t need to do amazing things to live a meaningful life. Starting from small things around us can also make the world a better place.
