Zhu lived in the same village as Zhong. He and other kids in the village took turns to carry Zhong on their backs to school when they went into the third grade in primary school. After entering middle school, Zhu and Zhong were in the same class and they were deskmates too.
“At first I just tried to show how strong I was by carrying him. Then I found that every time I was sad, he would cheer me up. Our friendship was stronger and stronger and we became good friends as time went by,” said Zhu.
Zhu carried Zhong on his back to the classroom, playground, bathroom, and other places where Zhong needed to go. They talked about everything and did their homework together every day.
“Our friendship is a two-way relationship. I help him deal with the little things in life, and he helps me with my studies. And that makes me become a better me,” said Zhu.

Zhong Huaqiang couldn’t stand and walk.
After entering middle school, they became deskmates.
Because he wanted to show how strong he was./To show how strong he was.
He helped Zhong deal with the little things in life, and Zhong helped him with his studies, and that made him become a better person/student.
50．Their story inspired many of their classmates to help each other and touched/ moved many people./It touched many people and inspired many of their classmates to help each other. B．例文：
Tom, a 14-year-old boy, came to China with his family from America two years ago. They live next to our house. We study in the same school. We say hello to each other when we meet in the morning on the way to school.
One Sunday afternoon, Tom walked his little dog in the park beside our house. Unluckily his little dog fell into the lake. Tom couldn’t swim, so he couldn’t save his dog in the water. He called out for help. It happened that I walked by and jumped into the lake to get the little dog out of water. Tom was greatly touched and thanked me again and again. Since then, we have become friends. We often help each other when we are in need. For example, I often help him with his Chinese and he often helps me study English after school. At weekends, we often do sports together and talk with each other happily. We have a good time whenever we are together. Our friendship goes better and better. Now we have been good and close friends. I hope our friendship will last forever.
I believe that a friend in need is a friend indeed. Friendship is very important in our life. We should cherish the friendship with others.
