  It was a bitter,cold evening in northern Virginia years ago. An old man was waiting for a ride across the river. The wait seemed endless. His body became stiff from the cold wind.

He heard the faint,steady 1       of approaching hooves (马蹄) coming along the frozen path. 2      ,he watched as several horsemen 3        the bend. He let the first one pass by,then another and another. Finally,the last rider neared the spot where the old man sat like a snow 4       . As this one drew near,the old man 5        the rider's eye and said, "Sir,would you mind giving an old man a 6       to the other side? There appears no passageway by foot."

  Reining (勒住) his horse,the rider replied, "Sure. Hop aboard."Seeing the old man was unable to 7        his halffrozen body from the ground,the horseman got off and helped the old man onto the horse. The horseman took the old man not just across the river,but to his 8       .

  As they neared the cottage,the horseman's 9        caused him to inquire, "Sir,I notice that you let several other riders 10        without making an effort to secure a ride. Then I came up and you 11        asked me for a ride. I'm curious. What if I had 12        and left you there?"

The old man 13        himself slowly down from the horse,looked the rider straight in the eyes,and replied, "I've been around here for some time. I 14       I know people pretty good. " The old man continued, "I looked into the eyes of the other riders and immediately saw there was no 15        for my situation. It would have been 16        even to ask them for a ride. But when I looked into your eyes,kindness and compassion were 17       . I knew,then and there,that your gentle spirit would welcome the opportunity to give me 18        in my time of need."

  Those heartwarming comments 19        the horseman deeply.

  "I'm most grateful for what you have said," he told the old man. "May I never get too 20        in my own affairs that I fail to respond to the needs of others with kindness and compassion."

  With that,Thomas Jefferson turned his horse around and made his way back.

  Ridgewood is a small,quiet town 20 miles from Manhattan. It is a typical suburban town,perfect for raising children away from the fast pace of the city. However,some Ridgewood kids feel as upset as if they were on the city's busy streets. In addition to hours of homework,Ridgewood's children are occupied with afterschool activities―from swimming to piano to religious classes.

  Out of desperation one day,the town decided to schedule another activity. This one was called " Ridgewood Family Night―Ready,Set,Relax!" Instead of schedules filled with sports,music,or overtime at the office,some of the town's 25,000 residents decided to take the night off and stay home. For a few months before Family Night,a committee of volunteers worked hard to spread the word. Younger students took "Save the Date for Me" leaflets home to their parents. The mayor issued a statement,and schools and clubs agreed to cancel homework and meetings so families could relax and be together.

  The tension between a hope for a more relaxed lifestyle and the knowledge that the standard for success has been raised in recent years weighs heavily on the minds of the townspeople. Some parents like to recall a different kind of childhood,one without so many scheduled afterschool activities. However,these same parents feel obliged to make sure their children are prepared to survive in today's highpressure work environment. They are afraid that any gap in their children's physical or intellectual development might mean they won't be admitted to the "right" universities and won't succeed in a more and more competitive world.

  Nevertheless,it seems that Family Night worked,at least to a point. Cars moved easily around Ridgewood's normally busy downtown streets,and stores and restaurants saw a drop in business. Some families ate supper together for the first time in months.

  Initially,there was great hope of taking back their lives. But sadly,few families believe that one night will change their lives. Many are sure that they will fall back into the habit of overscheduling their children to be overachieving adults.
