It was a terribly rainy wet winter day.While I was walking from the library after getting
my University applications (申请) for next year at the end of my lunch break,a man was
walking towards me with two huge boxes of brochures (小册子).
I thought,"What on earth is that man trying to do?Carry all those things?" Then all of a
sudden he dropped them all!It was a terrible mess with hundreds of brochures all over the
path in front of me!"Oh,no," I thought.The man sat down and started trying to pick all
of the brochures up.I couldn"t believe how many people walked on by without even
caring at all.
I thought,"I"m not going to be one of those people who don"t care about this man.I"m
going to help him."So,even though it was the end of my lunch break from work and I would
be late if I stopped to help him,I didn"t mind.If I explained what happened,I was sure my
boss wouldn"t mind too much.So,I helped him pick them all up.Then I asked if he would
like a hand in carrying a box to where he went.He said yes gratefully.
I carried one of the heavy boxes.The box I had to carry was very heavy-as I"m quite
a petite (娇小的) girl-but I didn"t complain.I just helped him with a big smile across my
face.We got there and he thanked me very much for helping him out.He also gave me one
of these lovely brochures about all the walks in and around the Bay of Plenty.
What is a better way to spend my lunchtime than helping someone?Luckily,I wasn"t that
late back to work,so nobody minded at all!
