Everybody was excited.

Her grandmother planted the beans every year and served them at many meals. Cassie was sure they would be unbeatable beans.However, the plan did not work out that way. Although Cassies bean plants looked healthy with beautiful purple flowers, they did not grow as fast or climb as high as any of her neighbours. These people chose beans from seed(种子)shops.

Its a special tradition which is rooted in the deep value that Chinese culture places on honouring their elders.Sadly, many of our aging population are seniors without sons, daughters or grandchildren to visit. While they may have great friends, they no doubt miss the tender and loving relationships unique to families. To fill this void(空虚),many volunteers turned up at nursing homes around the country in order to spend time with the residents(居民). In some cases, they performed humble(谦逊的) gestures(表示) of kindness, such as combing their hair or washing their feet.While the kind acts were appreciated, one embarrassing story out of Anhui Province raised a valuable question. Reportedly, one old gentleman had his feet washed seven times during the day by different volunteers. Is this genuinely(真诚地) caring for the elderly? Many of the residents at the nursing home said that those gestures do not make them feel cared for at all. Their family members or community volunteers may drop by for a few hours of token(象征性) time, but soon they disappear back into their busy lives.There is nothing we can give that is more valuable or appreciated than our time. While you may feel like there is barely enough time to care for your many responsibilities, might it be possible to spare just a moment as you walk home from school to sit with a senior who lives in your community? Just five minutes is not going to prevent you from getting your homework done, but it may totally change a day of loneliness into a day of joy for one old man or woman. Do you live far from your grandparents? Why not pick up the phone and let them know youre thinking of them? Or maybe you could remind them of the good old days and mail them a short letter. Imagine their surprise and joy!We live in a complicated(复杂的) and busy world, but kindness and caring is still a very simple thing.（1）How many times did one old gentleman have his feet washed during the day? (不超过2个词) （2）Which gesture can make the elders feel ca
