I was in line waiting to pay. A little boy in the front was buying some clothes.

I noticed that the little boy was paying mostly with change (零錢). It seemed that he had broken his pig bank (豬形儲(chǔ)蓄罐) to do this shopping. However, the cashier told him he was $ 8.00 short after counting his money.

It was clear that the boy had already used all the money. The lady in front of me said, “Well, I could pay half of that.” I told the boy that I could pay the other half. We dug into our handbags. However, both of us only had ten-dollar bills (紙幣). Other shoppers began digging into their pockets to find some change. It was amazing and touching as all these strangers seemed to react (反應(yīng)) with the same mind. All wanted to be of help. Within minutes the cashier said, “I have too much money.” The cashier didn’t need our ten-dollar bills. Then the lady in front of me said, “Wait! I didn’t even get a chance to give anything!”

I smiled at her and said, “You did your share, because it was your idea and you started all this.” The little boy smiled and thanked us. I was left with a good feeling. I saw the love and goodness of others all around me. The woman in front of me smiled and said, “It sure feels good to give, doesn’t it?” I smiled back and said, “Yes!”

“Mum, I hate you. I don't need a new schoolbag or clothes. I'm not afraid of being hit by you. I only want you to come back. ”When Chen Jiuying read her daughter's letter, she couldn't help crying. Chen and her husband are now working far away from their hometown. Their daughter, Xiao Li, is looked after by her grandparents. Like Chen, many migrant workers(外來(lái)務(wù)工人員) are dreaming about a better life, so they have to leave their children behind.

According to a survey, there are now about 61 million left-behind children(留守兒童) in poor areas in China. This has brought many problems. These children care little about others. They do not do well at school. They lose confidence .Luckily, many Chinese are now thinking about the life of the left-behind children and actions have been taken to help solve the problem.

A charity event took place in Beijing before Children's Day. Its aim was to raise social awareness(意識(shí)) of left­-behind children. The event was held to raise money from businesses and the public to prepare “l(fā)ove bags”. Inside the bags, these are things for children, including books, torches, and envelopes（信封） and stamps so that children can write to their parents.

The event was started by Chen Weihong, a television host in China. “The left­--behind children don't have enough parental love and family care. They need to be in touch with their parents. We hope our love bags will help them communicate with their parents, and make them happier, ” he said.
