When I was ten， my mother worked all day so I had to babysit my y 1 brother. At that time my little brother was about four years old and he missed mum all the time.

One day， after we had dinner， he started crying for mum. So I dressed him， put on his s 2 ， carried him on my back and walked o 3 . Soon he fell asleep. About 20 minutes later， I found one of his shoes l 4 while sleeping. I took him off my back and put him down. I knew we needed to find that shoe because our mum c 5 buy new shoes. We had to go back to find i 6 . So I told my brother to wait right there. A man heard it and s 7 me just before I walked away. He asked me， “You are leaving your brother to find the shoe？ What would you d 8 if he is not here when you come back？” I did not know how to answer that question. He said again， “Its OK if you cant find the shoe， b 9 it is not OK to lose your brother.” Then he sent us to mums workplace by taxi.

I do not even remember what the mans face looked like， but he taught me a lesson—People are m 10 important than things.
