Looking back, I always laugh when I recall one of my most embarrassing but funniest memories. When I was young, my cousin and I traveled uptown in Manhattan to Radio City Music Hall to purchase tickets for a_________. After buying the tickets, we realized we had_________money for our train ride. We stood in the station, turning to strangers for help with our_________.

That day made me_________what forces a person to assist a stranger. A story told by my teacher provides the basic framework for being a good_________to others. In the story, the teacher was asked by one of the classmates, “Who is my neighbour?"

As a_________to this question, the teacher told the story of a man who was robbed,_________and left dying during travel. Even when a priest crossed the street_________to avoid helping this man, a good Samaritan saw his condition and felt sympathy for him. He_________the man onto his donkey and brought him to a restaurant nearby where he__________all expenses. When the teacher__________telling the story, he asked, "Who was a neighbor to the man?" The student replied, "The one who__________him." Then the teacher said, "Go and do__________.”

Over 40 years have passed__________my cousin and I asked strangers for help with our train fares home after we bought the film tickets,__________the lesson we learned that day remains just as strong. I learned to become a（n）__________Samaritan.

Those who__________us some change that day acted as our neighbors. And as I move forward in life. I look back to that day when I see others in need as a__________to be a good neighbor.__________Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, "The time is always right to do__________is right."

The ride began on a Sunday morning in the Georgia countryside, and for the ______ few hours I felt wonderful. This was just the ______ I had imagined, and my spirits were ______ . But by the end of the day, I felt tired. I was sure I’d have to ______ .

As I topped the hill, the nice sunset ______ me going for a few minutes more. Then in the distance, I ______ a rider riding very slowly. I ______ that the person looked different in some way, but I couldn’t tell why. I managed to ______ . There she was, riding slowly but steadily, with a determined smile on her face-and she had only one ______ .

My focus ______ at that moment. I’d been doubting my ______ for a whole day. But now I knew—it wasn’t the body, but the ______ that would help me reach my goal.

It rained all the second day. I never saw the one-legged biker again, but I pushed on without complaining. And at the end of the day, still feeling strong, I ______ the 150th mile.
