Recently, my daughter reminded me of someone we saw at the train station a few years ago.
That day, my daughter and I were waiting for our train. We went to ___1___ some drinks, and there we saw an old man. Dressed ___2___, he was standing in front of the counter while counting coins slowly to buy just one bottle of water. The businessman ___3___ him said impatiently, “Hey! We are in line. Can’t you be quick? Some of us have a train ___4___!” Hearing this, the old man felt very embarrassed (尴尬的), so he walked away quietly ___5___.
It was my turn. I bought us two drinks and the old man’s ___6___ as well. We walked up to him and gave him the water with a smile. After walking away, my daughter said unhappily. “Dad, the old man is so ___7___. He didn’t even say ‘thank you’ to us!” I told her that we did this not to get a “thank you” from other people. We just wanted to be nice.
Now, my daughter always reaches out to help people. She always waves her hands, makes a ___8___ on others and says “hi” to people on the street. She holds doors for people. She usually ___9___ things that people drop and returns to them.
When I mentioned this recently, she looked surprised. I asked her ____10____ she was so kind all the time. She said, “Because it is just right to be that way.” Then she added, “And because I see you do that all the time.”
