Compassion is a desire within us to help others. With effort, we can translate compassion into actions. An experience last weekend showed me this is true. I work part-time in a supermarket across from a building for the elderly. These old people are our main customers, and it’s not hard to lose patience over their slowness. But last Sunday, one aged gentleman appeared to teach me a valuable lesson. This untidy man walked up to my register (收款机) with a box of biscuits. He said he was out of cash, had just moved into his room, and had nothing in his cupboards. He asked if we could let him have the food on trust. He promised to repay me the next day.

I couldn’t help staring at him. I wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before, and what he would be like if luck had gone his way. I had a hurt in my heart for this kind of human soul, all alone in the world. I told him that I was sorry, but store rules didn’t allow me to do so. I felt stupid and unkind saying this, but I valued my job.

Just then, another man, standing behind the first, spoke up. If anything, he looked more pitiable. “Charge it to me,” was all he said.

What I had been feeling was pity. Pity is soft and safe and easy. Compassion, on the other hand, is caring in action. I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed either. Then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself. I reached into my pocket because these two men had reached into my heart and taught me compassion.

What does the word “compassion” underlined in Paragraph 1 mean?

A. pity for the sufferings of others

B. feeling or expression of sorrow

C. liking for each other produced in people who have similar opinions or tastes

D. something for which to be thankful

The aged gentleman who wanted to buy the biscuits _____.

A. promised to obey the store rules

B. forgot to take any money with him

C. hoped to have the food first and pay later

D. could not afford anything more expensive

The writer acted upon the store rules because _____.

A. he wanted to keep his present job

B. he felt no pity for the old gentleman

C. he considered the old man dishonest

D. he expected someone else to pay for the old man

What does the writer learn from his experience?

A. Wealth is more important than anything else.

B. Helping others is easier said than done.

C. Experience is better gained through practice.

D. Obeying the rules means more than compassion.

When I was in the 8th grade in Ohio, a girl named Helen in my class had a terrible accident.

Love in a Box

Mother said, “We’ll see,” and she continued eating.

All Saturday I waited 35 and with Sunday arriving, my worry increased, but I 36 an enquiry(询问) about the box might 37 anger or loud voice, for in my house children only asked once. More than that 38 trouble.

He sang while he worked. When he finished, he was so delighted that a 45 smile spread over his face. “What do you think of that?” he asked.

I answered him with a hug.

But inside, 46 danced all the way to my heart. It was the first time that my father devoted so much 47 to me, for his world consisted of work only.

The holiday party arrived 48 , and my classmates put cards, and presents into the valentine boxes. Laughter filled our classroom until it was over.

On the way home, I held out my valentine box for the world to 49 . The love that filled it meant more to me than all the valentines inside.

The valentine box became a symbol of his love that 50 through years of other Valentine’s Days. He gave me other gifts through the years, but none 51 compared with the love I felt within the limits of the old, empty shoebox.

It was a beautiful Sunday morning, and Maggie and I were returning from our walk through the woods．We were only a couple of blocks from home when I spotted a cell phone and a credit card sitting on the road．We took them home．We always find amazing things on the street and she looks upon them as a movable feast-a chicken wing here or a barbecue rib （肋骨）there．

I found another cell phone a few years back, too, and called a number in its phone book．I explained the situation to the guy who answered．He said it was his sister's and that he'd come to pick it up, which he did．

And that was that．No verbal thank-you, no written thank-you, no “here's a box of chocolates” thank-you．

I didn't have time to call anyone on my latest found cell phone．I was pouring myself coffee when it started to shake and dance across the kitchen counter．

“Who's this?” someone asked when I picked up．

“Who's this?” I countered（反问）．“Sarah?”

She was surprised at my knowing her name until she realized her name was on the credit card．“Could you send them to me?” she asked．

She lives in Arlington, which is 2 miles from my house．

“Hmm, no, ”I replied, adding that I thought she could come to get them, and that if I wasn't at home, they would be in my mailbox．

A day later, when I was out for a run, someone got them back．There wasn't even a piece of paper put in the mailbox with “Thanks” on it．In this age of e-mail and cell phone, there's really no excuse．Years ago, I found something more precious than a $100 bill on the street：a driver's license．I saw that its owner lived a couple of blocks from me, so I called him up．He asked whether I could slip the license through his front door．

“I guess I could, ”I replied．

And that was that．
