Three boys and three girls boarded the bus to Fort Lauderdale, dreaming of golden beaches as the gray cold of New York disappeared behind them. They noticed an old man, who sat in front of them, dressed in a plain, ill-fitting suit, never , and his dusty face his age.
He was in his seat like a stone, and the young people began to about him, trying to his life and his age. Deep into the night, outside Washington, one of the girls went up to him and introduced herself. “Want some wine?” He took the glass and drank.
Slowly and he told his story. His name was Vingo, he had been in in New York for the past four years, and now he was going home. “When I was in prison I wrote to my wife,” he said. “I told her that I was going to be away for a long time, and that if she couldn't it, if the kids kept asking questions, if it too much, she could just forget me, I'd understand.”
“Last week, knowing I would be , I wrote her again. We used to live in Brunswick and there's a big oak tree just as you come into town. I told her that if she would me back, she should put a yellow handkerchief on the tree, and I'd and come home with her. If she didn't me, forget it, no handkerchief, and I'd go on through.”
“Wow,” the girl exclaimed. She told the others, and soon all of them put their faces against the window, waiting for the of Brunswick.
Then Brunswick was ten miles, and then five. Then, suddenly, all of the young people were up out of their seats, screaming , all except Vingo. Vingo sat there , looking at the oak tree.

Generally speaking, a British is widely regarded as a quiet, shy and conservative (保守) person who is only among those with whom he is familiar. When a stranger is present, he often seems nervous, embarrassed. You have to take a commuter train (通勤车) any morning or evening to the truth of this. Serious-looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or off in a corner; hardly anybody talks, since to do so would be considered quite offensive (冒犯的).
, there is an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior, which, once , makes the offender immediately the object of .
One of the few things we can say about the British with certainty is that a British takes a(n) to the discussion of their weather and that, if given a chance, he will talk about it . Some people argue that it is because the British weather follows forecast and thus becomes a source of interest to everyone. This may be so. Certainly a British cannot have much in the weathermen, whose predictions, in many cases, to be wrong! The man in the street seems to be as accurate – or as inaccurate – as the weathermen in his .
Foreigners may be surprised at the number of references weather that the British make to each other in the course of a single day. Very often conversational greetings are by comments on the weather. “Nice day, isn’t it?” “Beautiful day!” may well be heard instead of “Good morning, how are you?” the foreigner may consider this exaggerated (夸大) and comic, it is worthwhile pointing out that it could be used to his . If he wants to start a conversation with a British but is to know where to begin, he could do well to mention the state of the weather. It is a(n) subject to which a response may well be of even the most reserved of the British.

Every fast-food employee knows that the drive-through window is the worst position. The window sticks with constant ice; the roar of engines hurts your ; your words are lost in the howling wind.
On a afternoon, everything changed.
Every once in a while, the sub-zero temperatures seal a windows shut. Drivers don’t exactly enjoy having to stand outside in the cold, their orders into a speaker box, when they expect to drive through on their heated leather seats. In such cases, most customers tend to show their annoyance to the employees.
This woman was .
“I’ll get the next car’s as well,” she said as she came up to the window to pay. She stood outside, much snow on her hair. Though she was obviously freezing, her bright lit up her face like a fire.
“You can’t their drinks,” I said, confused and tired.
“No, but I’ll buy them,” she said. “Pay it forward and all that.”
Completely puzzled, I charged her as , and when the next customer arrived at the window I explained what had just happened. I watched as his changed — first angry to be out in the cold, then at the random act of kindness, and finally, delighted by his .
“I suppose I’ll pay for the next order then,” he replied, nodding and waving at the impatient driver him. He over the cash and received his pre-paid hot drink.
The trend continued. Customers arrived annoyed, only to leave and pleased. Some were shocked to spend much more than they had expected, others ended up receiving their order for less than half the price.
Five vehicles passed, then ten, then twenty. No one refused to pay. Customers stood at my window a fist-full of change to buy drinks for a complete stranger. Cars drove off, honking (鸣笛) and their thanks.
It only takes one customer, one person, to change the entire of traffic. It only takes one moment, one smile, to warm up even the coldest of days.
