A story sample could be: Everyday, a boy named Sam went on cycling in the park. He trained really hard as his dream was to be a world class champion cyclist. One day, he saw other children, younger than him, trying to ride their mini bikes at the park. They seemed to be frustrated and angry as they kept on falling, even bruising themselves; they ended up crying while throwing and kicking their bikes on the ground. Sam couldn't keep still, seeing their tears and the bikes being mistreated. He decided to help them out, properly and patiently teaching them how to ride a bike.
