Many years ago, I owned a service station and roadhouse on the main road between Melbourne and Adelaide.
One very cold, wet night at about 3:30 a.m., there was a  11   on the front door of our house. A young man, wet from head to toe, explained that he had   12   out of petrol about 30 km up the road. He had left his pregnant(怀孕的) wife and his two children  13   at the car and said that he would hitchhike(搭便车) back.
Once I had filled a can with petrol, I took him back to his car where his two-year-old and four-year-old children were both  14   , saying that they were cold. Once the car had started, I suggested that he   15   me back.
Before leaving, I had turned the heater  16   in the roadhouse, so that when we went in, it was nice and   17   .While the little ones played and ran around ,I prepared bread and butter for the children, and hot chocolate for the   18   .
It was about 5 a.m. before they left .The young fellow asked me how much he  19   me and I told him that the petrol pump(加油泵) had shown $15.He offered to pay “call-out fee”, but I wouldn’t accept it.
About a month later, I received a  20    from Interstate, a large bus company that we had been trying to   21   to stop off at our roadhouse for a long time. It   22   out that the young fellow I had helped was its general manager, the most   23   person in the company.
In his letter, he thanked me again and   24   me that, from then on, all their buses would stop at my service station. In this   25   , a little bit of kindness was rewarded with a huge amount of benefits.
