Question

An Act of Kindness

I had nothing for breakfast that morning. I was so _____ that I could hear my stomach growling（咕咕叫）when Mr. Katter was lecturing on Asia history. So when the bell rang, I rushed to the dining hall at once. Minutes later, I stood in front of the counter（收银台）, holding a tray(托盘) full of food.

“Three dollars,” the lunch lady told me. I reached my hand into my _____ and felt nothing. The schoolbag was empty. I searched again. Still nothing. I was almost certain I put three bills in it last night. I put the schoolbag on the floor to search for the money again. As I finally _____ the money wasn’t there, I could feel the worry and fear washing over me.

Feeling quite _____, I didn’t notice that another person had stepped up to the counter. When I finally looked up to tell the lunch lady my _____, I saw, in the corner of my eye, a boy walk quickly past. I paid no attention to him, and I opened my mouth to speak.

“I’m sorry. I don’t have any money with me.”

“Honey, he paid for your lunch. You’re good.” the lunch lady said as she pointed to the direction the boy had gone.

I looked in the direction she pointed to, yet I could not find the boy. I missed the chance to _____ him. He was nameless to me. He didn’t even know me. But he paid for my lunch. Although it was only three dollars, I couldn’t remember anyone doing something so nice for me.

A month later, on my way home, I saw an elderly woman struggling(费力) with heavy bags. I suddenly thought of the nameless boy who _____ me lunch.

“Excuse me, ma’am, do you need help?”

I’ll never forget her _____ as I rushed forward to give her a hand. It’s the very prize for my act of kindness.
