A
I still clearly remember that day. I was on the side of the road for about four hours with my big jeep. I put signs in the windows that said,” Need a jack(千斤顶).”
As I was about to give up, a truck stopped and a man got off. He looked at the situation, made a judgment and went back to take a jack. After about two hours, we
finished the job with sweats. We were both dirty. His wife took a large bottle of water for us to wash our hands.
I tried to put $20 in the man’s hand, but he wouldn’t take it, so I went to give it to his wife as quietly as I could. I asked their little girl where they lived, thinking maybe I’d send them a gift. She said they lived in Mexico. They were in Oregon now, so Mommy and Daddy could pick cherries for the next few weeks. After that, they were going to pick peaches and then go back home.
After I said goodbye and started going back to my jeep, the girl ran to me and handed me a tamale(玉米粉蒸肉)for lunch. I thanked them again and walked back to my jeep. When I opened the tamale, what did I find inside? My $20!I ran to the truck and the guy rolled down his window. He started shaking his head, smiled, and with what looked like great concentration said in English,” Today you, tomorrow me.”Then he drove away, with his daughter waving to me from the back.
This family, working on a seasonal basis where time is money, took a couple of hours to help a stranger while others passed by quietly.
Since then I’ve helped many people like the Mexican family. I didn’t accept their money. Every time I was able to help, I felt as if I was putting something in the bank.

Some six years ago, I was studying for the college entrance examination. Everyone was very exhausted. Living conditions in the countryside were not very good. One morning as usual, my classmates and I got up at 5 :30 to begin studying. The fog was thickening. It was still a little cold. We were absorbed in our studies. Just then, a familiar figure appeared outside the window and waved his hand to me. It was my father. My heart pounded with excitement. Many classmates turned around and looked at me with envy. They guessed that he had brought something delicious for me to eat.
How excited I was! I ran out of the classroom. My dad was all wet. Obviously, his worn jacket didn't keep him dry. He had walked all the way from my hometown fifteen kilometers away.
\he raised his hand and tenderly wiped my tears away. \best. \it is still warm,\flowed through my whole body. He looked at me with a satisfied smile on his weathered face. ' Son, I have to catch the six o'clock bus home. Take care of yourself. We will come to see you if we have time. Take every chance and study hard. Keep it in mind. Now, I must be off. \
I wanted him to take my coat but he refused firmly. Then he turned around and walked down the road. The back of his jacket danced in the wind. Very quickly, he disappeared into the fog.
At last, I realized my dream. I studied for four years at a famous university in the south. Now, I have a job in a big company. My father's love will encourage me to overcome any difficulties I meet in the future.

I was riding my special motorbike this past weekend and stopped at a convenience store. As I was getting my wheelchair off the back, a man watched me from his car and I noticed a wheelchair in his back seat. We spoke for a moment and I asked him about the wheelchair. He answered that it was for his daughter. “Well, do you think she would like to go for a ride on my motorbike with me?” I asked. He seemed shocked that a total stranger would ask him this. He thought about it for a second and said, “OK, as long as I can follow you.”
He introduced me to Amy and he sat her on my back seat. Her father followed me for a few miles and she talked non-stop about what she wanted for Christmas.
As we came back to the convenience store, she said, “This ride is the best Christmas present I could ever receive. I have been in a wheelchair my whole life and didn’t know I could do this.” I told her about some of the other things I do (ski, travel the world by myself, etc.). As her father was taking her off my bike, she turned to him and said, “Oh Daddy, I’m going to be OK. Mr. Bryant does all kinds of things, and I will too.” Her father turned away as a tear of joy rolled down his cheek. He hugged me and said, “I was sitting here praying for a gift for Amy that would encourage her. She often felt that her life was dull compared to other children. God answered my prayer just now. Now I pray that God will bless you for your gift to Amy today.” I believed what he said. Being kind and thoughtful to others, we can be an answer to prayer.
28. How did the father feel at first when the author invited his daughter for a ride? A. He felt surprised because he didn’t know the author. B. He was happy because his daughter could gain excitement.
