I JUST WANT TO MAKE THE MOST OUT OF EVERY COMPOSITION,OK?
IT was in the afternoon of the Children¡¯s Day, Aran and Bernie were on their way to the shopping mall. They were both in high spirit because they were going to buy the toy guns they had been longing for. Suddenly, they noticed a beggar asking for money. He looks so terrible with his wrinkles spreading all over the face and his filthy, smelly and torn clothes that some passers-by were scared away at the sight of him. When Aran and Bernie passed him, he turned towards them. ¡¯Would you please be so kind to give me some money?¡¯ he asked appealingly while handing out his jagged bowl. ¡®No,¡¯ Aran gave him a flat refusal despite the poor man¡¯s sincere plea before he whispered Bernie, ¡¯Nowadays, many lazybones would like to make a living by begging rather than working and some of them do make a killing through it.¡¯ However, Bernie was sympathetic; he gave a few coins to him. The beggar smiled when he took over the money and managed them. The boys went on their way before they heard a voice from behind:¡¯ Hi, guys, please stop and turn around.¡¯ To their surprise, they found that the beggar had taken off his false beard and turned out a to be a young man. What was more amazing was that there were two photographers filming them at a distance. ¡®Excuse me, guys, I am the reporter for the SBN, and we have just done an experiment to know about the people¡¯s reaction towards beggars.¡¯ he said. ¡¯If you have time, we¡¯d like to invite both of you to our live-televised program---¡±Truth Talks¡±(Ö¸¡°Êµ»°ÊµËµ¡±À¸Ä¿,¿Ï¶¨ÓиüºÃµÄÒë·¨). ¡®That is O.K.¡¯ both of the boys agreed. That evening, Aran and Bernie came into the studio and the anchor was just the false beggar. To begin with, he showed the film to the audience and then he asked the boys about their view on begging. Aran, citing the fact that many beggars were of low quality, was embarrassed and apologized for his rudeness. Bernie said, ¡¯The beggar¡¯s quality is not my concern. I just want to show my compassion and do the helpless a favor.¡¯ When the program draw to a close, Bernie was awarded a prize for his deeds and spirit.

OK, Ok, since you are so earnest about it, I will give
it a try. Please keep in mind that I am not an English teacher so my "opinion" does not carry much water.
At your rate of progress, you won't be needing help very soon !
-----------------------------------------------
I will make a few suggestions but try to leave most of the essay untouched. When the real experts come back from their
weekend break, they may have better suggestions.
********************************************************
Suddenly, they noticed a beggar asking for money. He looks so terrible with (remove:his) wrinkles (remove:spreading) all
over (add: his) face
-----
and (remove:his) filthy, smelly and torn clothes that some passers-by were scared away (not sure about the preposition here: I think it should be "by the sight" instead of "at the sight" of him.
-----
When Aran and Bernie passed him, he turned towards them. (The way I pictured how this happened would suggest:
Just as Aran and Bernie passed him, he turned...
------
he asked appealingly while handing out his jagged bowl.
(Handing out usually means "giving something out".
How about he asked appealingly as he pushed forward his...
¡®No,¡¯ Aran gave
him a flat refusal despite the poor man¡¯s sincere plea before he whispered (add: to) Bernie, ¡¯Nowadays, many
lazybones would like to make a living by begging rather than working and some of them do make a
killing (change: on) it.¡¯ However, Bernie was sympathetic; he gave a few coins to him. The beggar smiled
when he took (remove:over) the money and (????managed?? Do you mean "thank" ?) them. The boys (started to continue) on their way (change: when) they heard a voice
-------
Excuse me, guys, I am the reporter for the SBN,
and we have just done an experiment to (change: find out) about the people¡¯s reaction towards beggars.¡
(**If you already "know", you won't need to find out, would you ?)
(Ö¸¡°Êµ»°ÊµËµ¡±À¸Ä¿,¿Ï¶¨ÓиüºÃµÄÒë·¨): The Ugly truth; Ain't that the truth; Strange but True; To tell the truth; The Plain Truth; Nothing But the Truth; The Naked Truth;...
--------
and Bernie came into the studio and the anchor was just the (change: FAKE) beggar. To begin with, he showed the
film to the audience and then he asked the boys about their view on begging. Aran, citing the fact that
many beggars were of (???low quality?? What do you mean by this???), was (embarrass and apologetic) for his (who is his ? Bernie of the begger. Third person reference unclear) rudeness. Bernie said, ¡¯
The beggar¡¯s ( ??? need clarification on what you mean by "quality") is not my concern. I just want to show my compassion and do the helpless a
favor.¡¯ (As) the program draw(s) to a close, Bernie was awarded a prize for his deeds and spirit.
