One day, I happened to 37 ___an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to 38____. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner shook his head, saying, “You don’t say!

“Certainly, everyone back home will 44 ___me if I leave China without seeing 45 ___” It was great. I said, “The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world.

I said, “Didn't you say 'You don’t say'?”

It was a cold winter morning. Half asleep at the train station, I stared into the distance, 31 for the train to take me to my 32 in Boston. The world was quiet. The very few people on the street kept to themselves, 33 their steaming cups of coffee.
Reaching into my pocket as the 34 was approaching, my numb hand searched for the $ 20 bill to pay my fare. The pocket was 35 
! I searched through my bag and then I felt 36 . Unless the money dropped from the sky, I’d be 37 there.
“What’s the matter?” A short, elderly man stood before me.
“Oh, nothing…Well, I 38 my money and now I can’t pay for the ticket. I’m going to 39 my math class and the train is leaving.”
“Here, use this.”
The man held a $ 20 bill. I looked up, 40 . People just didn’t do that any more. Everyone worried about their own 41 , rarely stopping to think about others, especially teenage strangers.
“Thank you, but no, I can’t.”
“ 42 it—go!” The man pushed me 43 the train. I bought a round-trip ticket, and he refused the change I 44 to give him back. I did not know what to say — a million thoughts raced through my mind, yet I stood 45 .
For the train ride I was silent. I began to see the world through 46 eyes. That man made a difference with such a simple 47 .
A week later I was at the train station again, with an extra $20 48 I saw the man. And there he was.
“Excuse me, sir, I believe I owe you this.” I 49 the money into his hand.
Failing to refuse, he said, “Just remember to do the same for someone in your shoes some day.” I smiled, 50 .
The elderly man is my hero. For many, heroes are famous, but my hero is a giving stranger who taught me a lesson in life. I will never forget his kindness.

When a rather dirty, poorly dressed person kneels at your feet and puts out his hands to beg __36__a few coins, do you hurry on, not __37__ what to do, or do you feel sad and hurriedly __38__ some money?

When I was in Germany, one day at Christmas-time I went to a post office to send a letter. To my 41 I found people queuing some paces away from the person at the savings deposit window. 42 so? Each did his business 43 but the line never moved a step 44 . I was very 45 , so I walked to the window to find out the cause.

From then on I 55 to watch their ways of doing things, manners, treatment 56 towards others. I found the Germans always mindful of other’s privacy.

Their laws 59 reading diaries or opening letters without permission. That shows 60 matters are not allowed to be disturbed.
