An essay of CET6 for practicing Should one expect a reward when doing a good deed? Some people expect a reward after doing a good deed, but some other ones think that we should help others without asking for anything in return like LeiFeng does. As far as i'm concerned, it's all decided by our hearts. I think the aim we do a good deed is to help other people who really need a help. We should do something we can do to satisfy them no matter how tiny it is because we have giving hearts. There's an old Chinese saying goes:"After giving rose to others,fragrance remains with the hands." It means even though you gave a rose to others, the fragrance would left around your hand. The fragrance we'll gain is actually the sense of satisfaction and happiness, the real "reward". On the contrary, people who expect a reward in return for giving a hand to others don't really aim to help others, but finding a decent excuse to exchange something they want. People who have good characters are in desparate need in nowadays society. We should always help others if we really can. Because taking will never be better than giving.
