(2019·河南郑州二模)There was an old man who used to sleep on the sidewalk of the Fifth Street Post Office. I could smell him before I came close. He wore dirty clothes and his mouth was nearly toothless. I seldom saw him talk with others. If he was not asleep, he talked to himself. I always felt sorry for him. What a poor old man! He must be hopeless and hungry.
One Thanksgiving, we had lots of food left over. I thought about the old man. He might be still hungry, so I packed the food up and drove over to the Fifth Street. It was a cold night. There was hardly anyone out. But I knew he would stay at the same place and I would find him easily. There he was, sitting against a fence(栅栏) near the post office. He was dressed as he always was. I drove my car over to him, rolled down the window and said,
“I've brought you some food. Would you like some turkey and apple pie?” However, the old man didn't seem to be very excited about this. He looked at me and said quite clearly, “Oh, thank you very much, but someone has given me food
earlier and I'm quite full now. Why don't you take it to someone else who needs it?”
His words were clear and his manners were good. Soon he put his head down into his arms again. I was the only person who didn't know what to say. An old man who was clearly down on his luck still thought about others. Why don't more of us do that?
