My brother and I were driving home together and became absorbed in a conversation. Because of this ___1___, my brother took a wrong turn.
Unfortunately, the wrong turn took us towards a bridge and we had no way to turn back. Reluctantly (不情愿地), my brother paid the bridge toll and drove on. He was clearly frustrated by the mistake and the ___2___ waste of $4.
We eventually reached an exit slip-way and, as we took it, my brother noticed a car that stopped by the roadside. A young guy was standing nearby, looking anxious. I was busy trying to ___3___ which way we went next but my brother pulled over and asked the guy if he needed any help. And he did. He had a(n) ___4___ tire (轮胎) and needed a wrench to get it off.
My brother gave him a wrench, then proceeded to help him change the flat. The young man said that this had been a(n) ___5___ week for him: earlier he had gotten into a minor car accident, and now this flat on his way home from work. He kept thanking us because he really would have been ___6___ if we hadn’t come along. After we had finished the job, he pulled out $20 to give to us. “No,” I said.
“We were never ___7___ to even get on that bridge. We took a wrong turn. But now we know why we did. It was to help you. Thank you for turning our mistake into an opportunity to ___8___.”
What I loved most was watching my brother throughout this process. He was able to see a chance to help (which I totally missed! ) even in an otherwise ___9___ situation. It can only come from a calm mind and a(n) ____10____ heart.
