It’s important for everyone to have a good neighbour. In China, there is a saying that a distant relative is not as good as a near neighbor(远亲不如近邻). I agree with it 1 from my experience (经历), I think it’s 2 for each one to have a good neighbor.
First, a good neighbour is a good friend. One winter day when our family moved to a new house, our neighborhood helped us to 3 some furniture(家具) and told us something 4 this neighbourhood. They invited all members of 5 family to their home and have a hot drink. They made us 6 comfortable here.
Next, a good neighbor is a good relative(亲戚).When we travel, our neighbors 7 take care of our house and keep the letters for us. When they 8 , we also help them as they do. In the new neighborhood, we always 9 each other. We are just like good relatives.
Finally, I get a very important 10 from our neighbours that having a good neighbour is being a good neighbor yourself.

Each day I took the same route to work and passed by a security guard (保安）. 1 greeted everyone walking by and made small talk with many of the passers-by and wishing them well. His simple “hello” made people feel 2 . His cheerful smile became a part of my day. When he was absent, many people noticed it, and I felt a little bit empty.
The first few times, I didn’t say hello back to him when he greeted me. I was 3 in my own world. On Monday the security guard asked me:“How was your weekend?” I told him about my visit to California, to see my mother, who had colon cancer. I 4 how I visited her each month. “The time with my mother is so precious(珍贵的), 5 I know that each time may be the last.”
He listened like a close friend I’d known for years. He felt my 6 and my love. He shared how he had lost his father to cancer two years before. He said, “I understand what you are going through. My father passed away while I was serving in Germany. Because of some reasons I was unable to fly back in time. I was unable to say goodbye to him. I wish I could have been with him, given him a hug, and told him I loved him. You are really lucky to have the gift of 7 .”
As I walked away, I realized I did not even know his name. The following day, on my way to work, I said: “After we spent all that time 8 yesterday, I still don’t know your name.” He answered, “Gary.” I responded back, “I’m Deborah.”
After that, we talked and shared stories about our weekends, dreams and families.
Later, Gary got 9 a new job and moved away. It’s been several years since I last spoke to him, yet the memory feels like yesterday. Gary reached out to me, 10 me and made my morning the best part of the day. I experienced the beauty of friendship and love.
In the business of life, we often forget to wish a stranger hello although how easy it is, and how great and lasting a 11 it can make. When you say hello to a stranger you become like a pebble(鹅卵石) thrown into a pond. With each ripple (波纹）you create, you spread love that continues to 12 . Make a point of saying hello to a stranger today. You will give the gift that keeps on giving.
