As I sat there waiting for my heart rate to return to normal，the yellow dog stared at me calmly.I recognized it immediately as a neighbor’s pet.I often saw their little boy hugging and playing with the dog in their front yard.I rolled down my window and told the dog to go home.The huge dog looked at me for a second more and then ran away happily to its front porch while I restarted my car. Now you may ask how slamming on my brakes changed the world.My answer is that one little boy will be hugging his dog instead of crying into his pillow tonight.Most of us look for some big thing we can do to change the world or our lives，but I think we can start to change the world by doing all the little things we can do in our lives.And it is those little things that do change this world day by day.[来源:学科网ZXXK] You can change the world，too.You can fill your life with acts of kindness.You may not be able to halt world hunger，but you can donate 50 pounds of food and keep a family from starving this month.You may not be able to bring peace to the world，but you can bring your peaceful spirit to the world around you.You may not be able to drive the hate and darkness from every human heart，but you can forever share the love and light in yours. 语篇解读：作者通过讲述自己的经历告诉我们可以通过做小事情来改变世界。 1．What happened when the author drove home with his son?
