A Man Named Lawrence

This is an act of kindness that happened to me one Sunday morning.

It was at two o’clock in the morning. We just came out of a club and were trying to find our 36 back to our city. As we were trying to 37 the bus stop, a man came to us and said he would show us 38 it was. Although we were a little 39 , we had no choice but follow him. He told us he was a homeless man and that his name was Lawrence.

When we passed some city workers 40 the streets, they sprayed (喷溅) the homeless man. Lawrence told us that they always sprayed the 41 if they were "in the way". I didn’t know why they would do that. They were human beings, 42 , not cattle or objects.

This man had just gotten 43 in the middle of a cold night, but 44 shouting at the workers, he asked them, "How would you 45 if your father or grandfather were treated like this?" He then told us, "It’s 46 use shouting at them, because they just get angry. You’re better off saying something from the 47 ."

It is 48 ! The world could be so different if only we put our anger 49 , lowered our voices and tried to speak from our hearts.

He took us safely to the stop and on the way talked about everything. We 50 him and told him that we 51 have never found the place on our own. He said, "I have a son of your age, and I hope that if he were 52 , someone would help him."

Not only did Lawrence clear out all the fear and distrust in our hearts, he helped us find our way, in more than one ways. 53 , this man taught us kindness. There was 54 we could really do to repay him. The only thing I hope to do is to 55 other people out.

A few years ago, I took a sightseeing trip to Washington, D.C．Standing outside the Ronald Reagan Center, I heard a voice say, “Can you help me?” When I turned around, I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended．In a natural reflex (反应), I reached into my pocket, pulled out all of my loose change and placed it on her hand without even looking at her．I was annoyed at being bothered by a beggar．But the blind woman smiled and said, “I don’t want your money．I just need help finding the post office.

In an instant, I realized what I had done．I judged another person simply for what I assumed she had to be．I hated what I saw in myself．This incident re-awakened my belief in humility (谦恭), even though I’d lost it for a moment．

The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant．I left Honduras and arrived in the U.S．at the age of 15．I started my new life with two suitcases, my brother and sister, and a strong, serious-minded mother．Through the years, I have been a dishwasher, mechanic and pizza delivery driver among many other humble jobs, and eventually I became a network engineer．

In my own life, I have experienced many open acts of prejudice (偏见)．I remember a time, at age 17 — I worked as a waiter, and I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well in school, he would end up like me．I have also witnessed the same treatment of my family and friends, so I know what it’s like, and I should have known better．

But now, living in my American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am and where I have been, and to lose sight of where I want to be going．That blind woman on the streets of Washington, D.C., cured me of my blindness．She reminded me of my belief in humility and to always keep my eyes and heart open．By the way, I helped that lady to the post office．And in writing this essay, I hope to thank her for the priceless lesson．

1.We can learn from the first two paragraphs that_____________________．

A．the author regretted his act of prejudice

B．the blind woman needed the money badly

C．the author was as poor as the blind woman

D．the author was a native American

2.According to Paragraph 4, hearing the father’s words, the author was probably_______．
