Well, in this modern era, the culture of throwing things away has become quite common. I'd like to talk about a time when I picked up something someone lost. I remember it was four years ago, when I was in college. I was sitting in my empty classroom after attending lectures with my friend, while all of my classmates were preparing for their assignments. After a while, all of my friends went to other lectures, and I was sitting alone in the class. I noticed a bundle of papers on the floor. To be honest, I couldn't understand why someone would leave such a mess in the classroom. That's why I decided to pick it up and put it in the dustbin. Just as I was about to put it in the bin, I noticed that it was actually an assignment. The lucky thing was that I was taking the same subject. I thought that someone had thrown it away after using it. So, I took it home with me. With the help of this printed assignment, I was able to complete my handwritten assignment. It was really useful for me. The next year, when I went to college, after attending class, one of my classmates was looking for something. When I asked him what he was looking for, he told me that he had lost his assignment the previous day because his bag was damaged. It had accidentally fallen out of his bag. At that time, I asked him to remember exactly where he had put his assignment. He told me that he was sitting in the same classroom, around the afternoon, during the break time. Then I remembered that he was talking about the same assignment that I had picked up. I gave him back the assignment, and he was really happy. He thanked me a lot, and I thanked him because it felt good to help someone in need.
