For all his life,my grandfather has lived in the Valley of Koi.A rushing river and the Eagle Mountain divide the valley into two.They keep the villagers safe from wolves.The soil is so rich that our crops seem to grow well by themselves,and even the precious (珍貴的) fire flowers can be found here.
Although life in the valley was good,my grandfather still worried about his people.The mountain and river kept danger out,but they also kept us far away from the world."We must find a way to reach out to other villages,"Grandfather said,"to trade,exchange stories and make friends.If we do not,Koi will one day disappear."
One day,grandfather saw a spider (蜘蛛) in his garden.He bent down to look more closely and saw it building a web between two grasses.Suddenly,Grandfather knew what the people of Koi must do.
Many villagers were skeptical."It comes easily to the spider,but it is so difficult for humans,"they didn't believe it possible."We cannot fly through the air like a spider.And what would happen if strangers learned where the fire flowers grew?"
"If I were a fire flower,I would rather be picked from the earth and loved than left alone and unseen,"Grandfather said.Some of the villagers agreed.After that,the strongest men and women of Koi began to work.Finally,the bridge was finished!My grandfather was the first Koi villager ever to stand on the far bank of the river.When he reached the other side,a stranger came to greet him friendly with a precious ice flower as a gift to share with us.
Our village is still small and quiet,but we are no longer shut away from the world.Next spring,I'm going to walk through the mountain to enjoy the ice flowers,I would also like to meet more strangers from other places and share them fire flowers of Koi.

3.That day was Random Acts of Kindness Day.
A random act of kindness is usually unexpected and unplanned.Maybe help someone carry groceries(雜貨).Maybe pay for a stranger's coffee.Or maybe send a helpful note to a friend.
I remembered,at a shopping mall,I saw a man sitting on the ground with a sigh,said"Please help."
I often give $20 to people like him,but now I decided to invest(投入) some time as well.I stopped and said,"Come on,brother.Pick up your things and let's get you some groceries."
As we walked back into the mall,I learned that he had a place to live,but no money to buy food.
Anyhow,he shared his story and I still wanted to help him.We started with some fruit and vegetables.He chose some tomatoes first,then got some carrots and onions.I asked him what else he wanted,he said meat.
He told me he had two boys,a big pack of noodles went in the basket.He also asked if he could get some toothbrush,of course,fine.
I was not sure exactly what had happened to this man,but his smile was genuine(真誠的).He only took what he really needed.I know I won't do this all the time,as I can't afford to do so.But treating people with dignity(尊嚴(yán)),kindness and compassion is important.Helping others is a good way to help the world,even in just a small way.We often feel as thought here's nothing we can do to make the world better.But that's just not true.

(3)What does the underlined word"this"refer to in the last Paragraph?
A.buying food
B.making friends

D.treating people with kindness and compassion
(4)What does the writer want to tell us?
A.Don't help people who ask for help.
