To request Smile Cards, please fill out the form below. A volunteer will mail you an order of ten cards within
two weeks. Smile Cards are offered to anyone who requests them on a pay-it-forward basis. That means there is no
charge for a set of cards. Someone before you has paid for your cards, and you are invited to keep the chain going
and pay-forward whatever you wish for the next person! For special events or circumstances, you can also place a
large quantity of request.
Note: When using a Smile Card, remember not to just hand it out by itself. The idea is to do something kind
for someone and then leave the Smile Card behind, so that they know someone reached out to them, and that they
are invited to pay-forward the kindness and keep the ripples going!

Ida Nelson was relaxing herself in her sister’s sauna ( 桑拿室) when she heard the sound of a small airplane
circling the nearby airport.
It was 11: 30 at night in a remote village with a population of 70, and, as she told the newspaper reporter,
“Any time a plane flies over that late, you know something is wrong.” Nelson and her sister leaped out of the
sauna, ran to the window, and saw the problem — the airports runway lights were out. Nelson threw on some
clothes, jumped into her jeep, and floored it to the airport, where she found a local pilot trying to turn on the lights
manually.
“Normally, if you push the button 10 or 15 times, the lights will just light up,” Nelson told the reporter. Not
this time. Meanwhile, she and the pilot learned of the plane’s urgent mission — it was a helicopter, there to
transport a seriously ill local girl to the nearest hospital, 280 miles away in another city.
Nelson had a plan. Driving her jeep to the end of the runway, she shone her headlights on the road for the
plane to follow. Great idea, but it wasn’t enough. More light was needed, so a neighbor called nearly every home in
the village — 32 of them.
Within 20 minutes, 20 vehicles arrived at the airport, many of the drivers still in pajamas. Following directions
from the helicopter pilot, the cars lined up on one side of the runway. The helicopter made its final approach and,
guided by the headlights, landed safely. The young patient was loaded onto the aircraft, and the plane immediately
took off again. Her illness was never publicly known, but she has since been recovered.
Without them, the girl might not have made it. However, for Nelson, it was only a small deed.
4. What problem did the helicopter encounter?
A. Its lights went out by accident.
B. It made noise as it ran out of fuel.
C
.
It didn’t arrive at the scheduled time.
D. It could not spot the runway at night.
5. What does the underlined word “urgent” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. instant B. normal C. final D. impossible
6. What can we conclude from the passage?
A. The girl has been in the hospital since her illness was reported.
B. The creative thought and the sense of duty of Nelson led to the final landing.
C. The villagers gathered so quickly because they were awake and ready to help.
D. The helicopter was to transport the girl from the local hospital to another one.
7. What does this passage want to tell the readers?
A. No way is impossible to courage.
B
.
A friend in need is a friend indeed.
C. A small act of kindness makes a big difference.
D. Where there is a wisdom, there is effectiveness.
