Question

The “59 smiles” on a smartphone by an old woman in Wuhan, Hubei province in about six months tell a big story. The smiles are from the 59 people who offered her seats on buses. “Everybody can be a good citizen, because in many cases a friendly smile is all that is needed to build a better world.” says Zhang Yongsheng in an article on youth.cn.

The 69-year-old Wuhan woman has taken photographs of the people who offered their seats to her on buses. The 59 photographs are good memories for her. Some of the smiles are shy, some friendly, while others are like sunshine.

The old lady is not good at taking photographs with her smartphone, because some of them are of poor quality, but in spite of that, the series of photographs has become famous immediately on the Internet.

The smiles that the old lady has taken show people’s care and love for others, which is becoming valuable in today’s society. Her act also expressed her thanks to those who have helped her, says Zhang.

Offering one’s seat to elderly people on buses has become a hot topic of discussion. There have been many cases of quarrels (爭吵) between young and aged people recently. They could have been avoided if we had thought more about others and also more thankful when others offered help.
