The story was a true one and still moved me deeply. Thirty years ago,I got to know a 1 lady named Rose. She had no kids and lived alone. 2 I went to visit her, I always took Rose some coffee and food. One day she said she was inviting me to have hunch.
We walked from my work place to a little restaurant on David Street. 3 the way, I began to worry: I knew that she had no money, but if I offered to pay for the lunch,I was afraid I would hurt her.
There were many people in the 4 and all of them were happy. Rose told me to sit and drink coffee by the window. Then she went to 5 in the kitchen. After about 20 minutes, she came out and sat with me. She just paid for one meal and we started to 6 the delicious food together. She told me that the restaurant let people work for a meal if they had no money, or would give them a free meal if they were not able to work. To my surprise, she also explained that the workers who were working there were all 7 .
I still remember the beautiful afternoon I shared with Rose. 8 we had a meal together only once, it was paid by Rose's work. The weather was 9 and bright, and everyone's smile was warm and bright as well.
I’m still thinking that life cannot be easy to us, but we can still do 10 for our friends and neighbors. The world will never be dark if there is a light in everyone's heart.

Do you know what punk rock music is? I love punk rock music so much. Now let me introduce punk rock music to you. Punk rock music started in the late 1960s in U.K. Punk rock music is a way to express the singer's thought and anger with society.
The earliest punk rock bands that formed in the early 1970s were Ramon's, Black Flag. Then in the late 1970s, more new punk rock bands were formed such as The Sex Pistols, The Clash, The Damned, IGGY Pop. Their songs were formed by some simple notes and their methods of singing were loud and they sang with anger.
Why did punk rock music develop that fast? Because the people in that time needed some ways to express themselves. There are lots of punk rock bands nowadays, such as Distillers, The Cure, Green Day. The biggest difference between the old and newer bands is their clothing. The old punk rock bands did not really focus on their clothing, but the newer punk rock bands do focus on their clothing when they are out for functions.
