　　In the winter of 1990, I was asked to appear on a television talk show in Toronto, Ontario, Canada．At the end of our first day of taping, I was on my way back to my 24-hour-room-service 　　1　　 when I saw something shocking．

　　On the sidewalk in four inches of snow was a man 　　2　　 with only a cardboard to keep him from being completely 　　3　　 to the freezing cold．What really broke my heart was when I 　　4　　 that he wore no shoes and socks．

　　I wanted to stop and help him, 　　5　　 I was not quite sure what to do．As the traffic light turned green, it seemed life was demanding that I 　　6　　．So I did．Back in "anything I wanted was mine" environment of my hotel, I immediately 　　7　　 about the man on the street．Several days later, I was eating Danish at the station．All of the "important" people had 　　8　　 the room and it was just me and the doorman remaining．

　　I had seen him 　　9　　 go about his business every day without saying a word except 　　10　　．When I asked him how he was 　　11　　 today, he told me that he'd been having to ride his bike to work in the snow and that he'd been feeling rather 　　12　　 for himself．．．that is, until he saw a man sleeping down on the corner of the street with just a 　　13　　 for covering from the cold and no shoes．I almost 　　14　　 on my Danish as I heard him go on to relate how he was so moved with 　　15　　 for the man that he bought the man a pair of socks and shoes．

　　The trip to that city was eye-opening for everyone, and near its end, all the young people in our group began to reflect on what it had meant．We looked back on the first night we had arrived．We had all gone into the markets of the city 　　1　　 the young people could experience its energy．But what we actually saw simply 　　2　　 us all－the rundown houses, the children in rags, the people begging for money…Walking home, 　　3　　 under a low bridge, we came across entire families of homeless people seeking a bit of dry ground to sleep on 　　4　　 the night．We had to step over bodies as we found our way through the darkness．

　　The poverty was 　　5　　 than anything my young companions had ever imagined．Back in the hotel, an air of sadness settled over the group．Many 　　6　　 and cried．Spending time in this 　　7　　 moves a person to care about humanity．

　　That evening, our group spent hours talking about what we had seen．Gently, I encouraged everyone to talk about the difficult 　　8　　 that day's discoveries had inspired．Sitting together 　　9　　 a circle as everyone had a chance to speak, we all began to realize that 　　10　　 of us was alone in our struggle to cope with our reactions．

　　Based on my 　　11　　 in poverty-stricken areas, I suggested that 　　12　　 the emotions we had were painful, they could also be important in helping us to move forward．We all 　　13　　 that we had seen things that should never be allowed to happen．　　14　　, what could we do about it?Together, we began to brainstorm ways we could help to ease the suffering we had seen．As I encouraged group members to focus on 　　15　　 they could do, a sense of determination replaced the previous sadness, Instead of despair(绝望), these young people began to feel a call to action．
