      A It was a bright Saturday morning. I stopped at a cafe to enjoy a cup of coffee and read the morning newspaper. Suddenly,I felt a hand on the back of my jacket and heard someone say, “Hey Steve!How are you doing?”

      Looking back,I saw a young man. He looked familiar,but I couldn’t remember where we had met.

     The young man also had a cup of coffee,so I asked him to join me. Very soon,his story began to thaw out my memory.

     Five years earlier,Johnson was traveling home late on a February night. A heavy snow had arrived that afternoon,and by midnight,the snowdrifts (雪堆) were getting deep. His car was stuck (陷人) in a snowdrift just down the road from my house.

     He walked to my house for help. I helped him pull his car out of the snowdrift and up to the street where the snow had been cleaned away.

     This was a normal happening here during the winter. I couldn’t count the times someone has helped me to pull my car from a snowdrift. However,it was an unforgettable experience for him. He was only eighteen at that time,and he said he was very afraid. No one wants to be stuck in a snowdrift all night.

     Sometimes,one simple kindness at the right moment can change the direction of a life. So,be kind and helpful.
