There was a young man named Bill in England. Before leaving school, he began to look for a job. Few companies needed new clerks due to the financial crisis（金融危機(jī)）at that time. It became harder and harder to find a job. Luckily, a chance camp up to him. A company wanted to employ（雇用）one person. He and the other twenty people joined in the first interview(面試). After that, three persons were allowed to enter the final test which would decide one person to be employed in the end. Bill was lucky to be among them. On the day of the second interview, Bill and the others arrived at the company on time. To their surprise, the interview was very easy. The interviewer only had a free talk with them, and then asked them to go back home waiting for the result. The next morning, Bill received a letter from the company which said he wasn't accepted. Certainly, he felt disappointed. On the evening of that day, Bill surprisingly received another letter, which said he was employed. But why was he accepted? As a matter of fact, the first letter sent to Bill was also part of the test. Every one of them got a letter which had the same meaning that morning. Only Bill replied with “Thank you” while the others said nothing.
Life isn’t all fun. There is always something making us unhappy. When you feel disappointed, please say “Thank you” to the person who disappoints you. That shows your great generosity(寬容) and politeness to others. If you do so, you’ll have more chances than others.

March 5 is “Lei Feng Day”. Fifty years ago on this day, Chairman Mao Zedong called on people to “l(fā)earn from Lei Feng”. Now half a century has passed. Is the spirit of Lei Feng outdated? Some people have shown us that it’s not. But people have also changed the ways in which they help others.
Li Yulin, who works in a hospital in Hang Zhou, Zhejiang, has been a volunteer for 15 years. He still remembers his experience in an old people’s home several years ago. An old woman held his hand and said, “You don’t need to do anything for us.

And before we lend a helping hand, we should find out what they want,” Li said to the Qianjiang Evening News.
As well as Li, other people have shown their understanding of the spirit of Lei Feng. A “noodle fever” swept Zhengzhou, Henan in January. It started with an online post. Li Gang, a 42-year-old local man, said in the post that he has got cancer. He needed a lot of money for an operation. He was not asking for donations, but hoped people would come to eat at his restaurant. Li’s post spread quickly. Soon his restaurant was filled with people every day.
