While going to the office, I found an old man lying by the side of the bus stop．He seemed very sick and poor．Instinctively．I gave him some money．After a few minutes, I realized that he was probably too sick to get up and buy something with that money．I was thinking about how to help him when my bus arrived, halting my brainstorm．I quickly got on and rode off．

However, that night I couldn't sleep．I felt very angry at my own heartless and selfish behavior．How could I just walk away from that man without a thought for his suffering? I felt restless and very upset． The next morning, while waiting at the bus stop, I hoped to run into him again．But he wasn't there．I thought he may have gone to the sidewalk to sleep for the night．I looked around for him, but he had disappeared．Disappointed, I decided to check for him again on my way back．

While returning from work that day, I came back to the bus stop and resumed my search for him． Thankfully, he was there．I quickly went to a nearby store and got him a blanket, some bread, and biscuits． When I handed them to him, he seemed very grateful．"Now I will be safe from the cold," he smiled． I also gave him some more money and told him to keep it safely．After being able to help him, I felt very at peace．

Three years ago, I had a job in a retail store (零售店). I 1 to talk to everybody and know what was going on in their 2. I remember a girl who started 3 there a few months after me. We seldom talked but we always 4 each other and smiled.
She always smiled in a really happy way 5 one day when we got to work in the 6department. She smiled as if she was the 7 girl in the world. I went up to her and asked, “What’s wrong with you?” She answered, “Why?” I said, “I could feel you’re very 8, but you’re always trying to 9it.”
Her mouth just dropped as if I had 10 her deepest secret, so we started talking. She told me 11she was feeling unhappy and why she was trying to 12 that nothing was wrong. Time went by and we became good friends. She’d always tell me I had 13 her life in so many ways.
Today that girl is one of my best 14. I really don’t know what I would do 15 her. She has been there for me in every 16 way a friend could be.
What I’m trying to say is that you never know 17 you’re helping yourself. I helped this girl never knowing that at the same time I was helping myself by finding a 18 friend.
So the next time you see a 19 and he needs someone who will 20 to him, wait and let him say what he wants to say. You never know, you might just end up helping yourself.
