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   41 on the front door of our house. A young man,wet from   42   to toe, explained that he had   43    out of petrol about 30 km up the road.He had left his pregnant(怀孕的) wife and his two children   44  at the car and said that he would hitchhike(搭便车) back.
Once I had   45  a can with petrol, I took him back to his car where his two-year-old and four-year-old children were both   46  ,saying that they were cold. Once the car had started, I suggested that he  47  me back.
Before leaving, I had turned the heater  48  in the roadhouse, so that when we went in, it was nice and  49  .While the little ones played and ran  50   , I prepared bread and butter for the children,and hot chocolate for the  51  .

In his letter, he thanked me again and  59  me that, from then on, all their buses would stop at my service station. In this  60   ,a little bit of kindness was rewarded with a huge amount of benefits.
