　Five months ago, I went to Beijing on business, While I was coming out of the Beijing Railway Station, a middle-aged woman came to me with a younger woman.

　“Hi, sir, where did you come from?” she asked.

　“I've just come from Hefei.” I answered at once, thinking that people in Beijing were so kind.

　“My younger sister came from the northeast. She needs a little bit of money to send a telegram（电报）to her family asking to post her some money. Can you lend her some? My sister is too shy to ask.” I felt sorry for them . Maybe some day I would also get into such trouble. So I gave them enough money to send a telegram.

　　The train would start off on time. Just then an old man rushed on to it. He began to look for a seat, but could not find one. After some time, he saw an empty seat near a young man. He found that there was a bag beside him on the seat. He asked the young man if the seat had been taken. “Yes,” the young man said. “My friend had just gone out.
