题目内容
11.I was waiting to cross on a typically busy road of New York City when a young lady approached from my right,pushing a baby stroller(婴儿车) and saying something softly over her lovely child.Oh,no,she's going to get hit.Yet I paused for a few seconds before reaching out to her.In my mind.I could see it all:the yellow taxi knocking into them heavily,the woman losing hold of the stroller,the stroller and baby falling in different directions."What are you doing?"a man said.His voice brought me back to reality:the man had come out of nowhere,grabbed the woman's arm and dragged her back greatly just in time to avoid the speeding taxi.The woman was shocked.She had been unaware of her near death.
I saw this man become a hero for the day; he saved two lives.He certainly wasn't like Superman or any other comic-book hero.I,however,the silent stranger who just stood there,saw everything and did nothing.Why didn't I do anything immediately?Why did I wait for five seconds?But then I realized that a part of it was…I was afraid.Afraid that I could have been wrong about my prediction:What if she got annoyed by my action?What if I looked like a fool?
Years later,I could still see that scene fresh in my mind.I now think about our society,and why I have been raised.We look around the subway,noticing empty seats between people,and all those who choose to stand for 15minutes rather than sit next to strangers.Kids grow up with the warning that if they talk to strangers,they will end up getting kidnapped(绑架) and never be seen again.
