A
On a cold winter afternoon, I was walking home from a supermarket. I was feeling a little tired, as I was carrying my shopping bags. They were so heavy that I decided to stop to have a rest in the park. I walked towards the gate of the park. I noticed a poor man walking out of the restaurant in front of me. He was holding a paper bag. He walked to a nearby dustbin and started looking
through it.
I suddenly felt sad. I knew this man would take all that he could get, so I went up to him and gave him some fruit. The man, with winkles on his face, looked up in surprise and took what I gave him.
A bid smile appeared on his face and I felt very happy. Then he said,“Wow! First someone gave me this sandwich, then this drink, and now some delicious fruit. This is my daughter’s lucky day. Thank you, boy.”Then he went away, singing a song.
Just then, I understood what the saying “Giving is getting”really meant. Everyone in the world needs help; everyone will be helped by showing kindness.
Giving sometimes doesn’t cost much, but it means a lot to the people who you help. The man’s happiness at that moment comes into my mind every time I have the chance to help others.

A. he worked so hard

阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，完成表格中所缺的信息
Trees are one of the oldest citizens of our earth. Just like us, trees change a lot when they grow. At one to three years old, young trees learn how to protect themselves. For example, trees grow thorns to tell animals not to go near. Most young trees have large, deep green leaves so that they can catch enough sunlight and change it into their food and energy.
When trees are 4 years old, they begin to grow very fast and become strong enough to face challenges in life.
At the age of 15, trees become adults. They grow more slowly and begin to produce flowers and fruit.
It is not until the trees are 20 to 25 years old that they become real adults. The trees reach their largest sizes. Adult trees give us many things such as oxygen and natural beauty. If we give them
good care, they will go on to live healthily for many years.
As time goes on, trees begin to grow older and older and even die. At this time, they still have their important place in nature. In many ways, the life of trees is like our own life experience.
