I was in my parked car, holding a book and reading. Once in a while I looked up, watching the people passing by. When I raised my    35   again, I saw an old lady with a large bag walking slowly towards my car. The bag seemed not only to make her steps    36  , but also make her out of breath. She looked tired and I thought she must be more than 70 years old.

She stopped and put a hand out to rest    37   it, gently (輕柔地，徐緩地) closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

Was there a way I could do something? I tried to keep my body still while my mind    38   for answers. However, because of my careless head movement, she noticed me, and she    39  moved her hand away from the car. I picked up a bottle of water at once, gently opened the door and offered the bottle to her. She    40   me, and then shook her head and walked away.

I was so    41   with myself. I should have been more careful not to move. Instead of    42   a hand, I had interrupted (打擾，中斷) the old lady’s    43   moment of rest. I was feeling blue. Just at that moment, I saw the lady coming back again. I opened the door and patted (輕拍) the    44   next to me. She sat down, opened her bag and offered me a banana. I took it and offered her the bottle of water again. She took it.

I ate, she drank and we smiled. She    45   for a couple of minutes. Those minutes brought such quietness to me. Then she took my head in both her hands, made a small kissing    46   in the air, opened the car door and walked away.

I was trying to help someone in distress (困苦，苦惱). In turn, I became distressed and she took away my distress and replaced it with quietness.

Mr. Smith worked in a big computer company. He had no wife, and of course, had no child,   41  . He lived in an old house   42  . He liked nothing but drinking. He almost spent all of his money   43  drinks.

One night, Mr. Smith met a friend of his on his way home. The man asked him to have dinner in a   44 . He was happy and drank a lot. When they   45  the meal, Mr. Smith could hardly walk. His friend had to stop a taxi and asked the driver to take him   46 .

Soon the taxi arrived at Mr. Smith’s house. With the help of the   47 , he got out of the taxi.

“Thank you, sir,” said Mr. Smith. “And I can   48  the door by myself.”

The taxi driver then went away. But Mr. Smith couldn’t put the key into the key hole. He tried many times   49  he still failed. At that time, a policeman passed there.

“Can I help you open the door, sir?” asked the policeman.

“Thank you, sir. But I don’t think you can.” said Mr. Smith. “My house is circling (轉(zhuǎn)圈) now. If you can stop it from   50  , I can open the door by myself.”
