The Ripple Effect of a Shared Meal
In our busy city, Ms. Chen, a retired teacher, felt a lack of community. Inspired by the idea of a potluck dinner, she placed a simple note in her apartment building's lobby: "Weekly Community Potluck - 7 PM Fridays. Bring a dish, share a story."
The first week, only two neighbors came. But they shared homemade noodles and laughter. Word spread. Soon, the weekly dinner became a fixture. A software engineer brought spicy tofu, a nurse brought fruit salad, and a student shared cookies from a family recipe. It was more than food sharing; it was cultural exchange and the birth of a support network.
Mr. Li, who lived alone and rarely spoke, started attending. One evening, he shared his skill in calligraphy. This led to a skill-share workshop in the building. Others offered gardening tips, basic car repair, and language lessons. A time banking system emerged informally – an hour of tutoring math could be "exchanged" for help fixing a leaky tap.
The building transformed. People looked out for each other. When Ms. Chen was ill, meals appeared at her door. This small act of sharing a meal created empathy, broke down isolation, and built a resilient, caring community. It proved that collaboration could start with something as simple as a shared plate of food, creating ripples of connection and mutual aid.

3. What developed as a result of Mr. Li sharing his calligraphy skill
A. A formal school was opened.
B. An informal skill-share and time banking system emerged.
C. Everyone started learning calligraphy.
D. He became the building manager.
4. How did the community demonstrate "mutual aid" when Ms. Chen was ill
A. They called a doctor for her.
B. They brought meals to her door.
C. They cleaned her apartment.
D. They raised money for her.
5. What is the main message of the story
A. Potluck dinners are the best way to solve urban problems.
