There was an old man in our neighbourhood. He looked quiet because he never talked to anyone. Every morning, he ran around the neighbourhood. When he ran, he picked up rubbish.
One day, we heard that the old man had a car accident when he picked up the rubbish. He would have to spend some time in the hospital. We also learned that he could not speak English very well and that was why he didn't talk to anyone.
One of our teachers wanted to do something. She told the old man's story to a newspaper. A reporter visited the old man and wrote about him. His name was Mr Polanski. In the country where Mr Polanski was from, there was almost no rubbish on the street. So when he first saw rubbish in our neighbourhood, he felt bad. He wanted to help clean up the neighbourhood, and then he could be happy in this new country.
Later our school decided that we could have a run on December 12 to pick up rubbish, just as Mr Polanski did. We called it the “Polanski Run”. That day, Mr Polanski ran in front, and hundreds of students followed. We ran around the neighbourhood in groups, picking up rubbish and putting it in bags.

Back in New York, I am fighting fires as the assistant captain(副队长) of a volunteer fire company.
I still remember my first fire. I was the second volunteer on the scene(现场). The captain was talking with the homeowner. At midnight, she was standing outside in the heavy rain, under an umbrella, barefoot(赤脚的). The other volunteer was asked to go inside and save the homeowner's dog. The captain then waved me over. He said, “Bezos, I need you to go upstairs and get this woman a pair of shoes.” So I went up the stairs, down the hall, past the “real” firefighters, who were much done putting out the fire at this point, into the bedroom to get a pair of shoes.
Now I know what you're thinking, but I'm no hero. I carried the shoes downstairs. There I met the other volunteer with the valuable dog. We took our treasures outside to the homeowner. Not surprisingly, his received much more attention than mine.
A few weeks later, the company received a letter from the homeowner thanking us for saving her home. The act of kindness she wrote above all others was that someone had even gotten her a pair of shoes.
Here, I would like to say: don't wait. Don't wait until you make your first million to make a difference in somebody's life. If you have something to give, give it now.
Not every day is going to offer us a chance to save somebody's life, but every day offers us a chance to affect(影响) one. So get in the game. Save the shoes.
