Tonight, I was on my way to the store to get4when I saw the man. My daughter and her friend were waiting in the car. We all felt so5that this man was standing out in the cold, wet weather. Many people say that he should be able to work. Either way, I don't feel it is my place to6. As I was sharing that feeling with my daughter and her friend, I decided that I needed to7this man. For one I wanted to show the girls the importance of helping others, and not worrying whether they were trying hard or not.

    I believe that if he is standing out on different corners all day and night,8the weather is, he must really need help.

    So, when we pulled over to give him some money, I said, "God bless you." and he said it back to us. We got him a hot chocolate and a hamburger because we were worried about him being9. He was so sweet and very thankful.

and unlocked German wartime codes (密码). However, after the war, he was put into prison, because of his beliefs. He could not stand the looking down and chose to bite a poisoned apple to end his life in the prison.

    However, Rob Jan off, who designed the famous Apple logo, said, "It's not the truth, but only a legend. The real reason why I designed it with a bite is very simple.
