A while ago my family and I went sledding. As I watched my children climbing up the slope, I started 36 .
Many people are 37 that most of today’s social problems are because of the “me ” generation; youngsters are just out for 38 and pay no attention to others or their needs. Indeed, a common belief is that today’s youngsters won’t do anything 39 there is something in it for them.

Most young children want to help. We can 53 that feeling to continue into adulthood by teaching the 54 my children learned while sledding: Life is a slippery slope with 55 of bruises(受伤), but we can all make it to the top if we remember to help those who need it.
