It was unusually quiet in the emergency room on December 25. I didn’t think there would be any      , sighing about having to work on Christmas. Just then five bodies      at my desk, a pale woman and four children.
“Are you all      ?” I asked. “Yes,” she said weakly and lowered her head.
But when it came to      of their problems, things got a little strange. They all claimed to have headaches, but the headaches weren’t        by the normal body language of holding the head or trying to keep it still.
Something was wrong. Our hospital policy,        , was not to turn away any patient. I explained it might be a little while      a doctor saw her. She responded immediately, even a bit      “Take your time,” and then added, “It’s warm in here.”
Then, I checked their registration form out of curiosity. No address—they were      .The waiting room was warm. I went back to the nurses’ station and mentioned we had a homeless      in the waiting room. The nurses, complaining of      on Christmas, turned to sympathy for a family just trying to get      on Christmas. The team went into action, much as we do when there’s a      emergency. But this was a Christmas emergency.
We were all      a free meal on Christmas Day, so we took back that meal and prepared a big dinner for our      .We needed presents. We      from different departments candies, fruits and other things      that could be presents. As seriously as we met the      needs of the patients, our team worked to meet the needs of a family who just wanted to be warm on Christmas.
       , as the family walked to the door to leave, the mother came       back, gave me a hug and whispered, “Thanks for being our angels today.”

A friend once told me a beautiful story of how ordinary people found a simple way to help others. My friend was 36 the beautiful view on the top of Casper Mountain, a 37 place for visitors to overlook (俯视) Casper, Wyoming. Even in the summer it was 38 on top of the mountain, and on this day he 39 a young woman who clearly had no coat. She 40 as she wrapped (用……缠绕) her arms around herself.
Then he saw an older man 41 up to the young woman, take off his sweater and place it on her 42 . The man said, “Here, keep the sweater. The 43 is even better when you’re warm.” She smiled her 44 and wrapped the warm sweater 45 her shoulders as the man went away.
Before the woman left, she found a middle-aged woman who was also 46 cold and she handed her the sweater. “47 it,” she said. “The view is even better when you’re warm.”
My friend was 48 in that, so he kept his eyes on the sweater. He noticed that before the current (现在的) 49 of the sweater left, she came near to a trembling (颤抖的) man, 50 it to him and said, “Here ... keep the sweater. The view is 51 better when you’re warm.”
