卡卡英語 第428期:兒童節(jié)特別節(jié)目,一次小小的善意便可改變世界
有一次和朋友聊天，忽然看到了一個(gè)小孩，大概兩三歲的樣子，一直沖著我們笑。我們也非常開心的和這位小朋友打了招呼。隨后朋友說道：你知道為什么小孩子那么可愛嗎？因?yàn)樗麄兊难劬?shí)在是太好看了，清澈透亮。而眼睛就是心靈的窗戶，所以他們才會(huì)那么可愛。
對(duì)于孩子們來說，他們的世界單純而美好。只要有家人的懷抱，好吃好玩的，還有和朋友們一起玩耍，就足以讓任何一個(gè)小孩綻放出天使般的笑容。缺失其中任何一樣，對(duì)于孩子們來說，都不足以擁有幸福的童年。今天要分享的這個(gè)故事，講述的就是一個(gè)小女孩意外的善舉。對(duì)小女孩來說，可能只是發(fā)自內(nèi)心的不經(jīng)意間的善意，但是卻讓一個(gè)小男孩收獲了更加幸福的童年。
