II. MULTIPLE CHOICE: READING COMPREHENSION: Encircle the letter of the
preferred answer.
GOOD DEED
I learned about the joy of helping others when I was in kindergarten. One of my classmates
had forgotten his snack, so he had nothing to eat during recess.
Nobody wanted to share with him because we were all very hungry and it was really his own
fault that he would have to go without. That day my mother had packed my favorite treat: a
chocolate and peanut butter cup. I wanted it all for myself, but my mother had often told me
that I should share, so I broke my chocolate and peanut butter cup in half and gave my
forgetful classmate one half. He nearly fell over in surprise. Then he smiled the biggest smile
I have ever seen, and I suddenly felt the greatest happiness I had ever felt. After that, I
always looked for chances to help people, because it always made them and me feel good.
