So my daughter and I had to stay in a hotel. It cost me￡12." Harry was worried. He remembered selling the woman a return ticket. "come into the office, Madam," he said politely. "I"ll just check the Jersey timetable for May 22nd." The woman and her little girl followed him inside. She was quite right, as Harry soon discovered. There was no sailing on May 22nd. How could he have made such a careless mistake? He shouldn"t have sold her a ticket for that day. Wondering what to do, he smiled at the child."You look sun burnt," he said to her."Did you have a nice holiday in Jersey?" "Yes," she answered, shyly."The beach was lovely. And I can swim too!"

Harry turned to the mother."I remember your ticket, Madam,"he said."But you didn"t get one for your daughter, did you?" "Er, well…" the woman looked at the child.

| On a very cold evening in northern Virginia many yean ago, an old man was waiting for a ride across the river. Anxiously (焦急地), he watched as several horsemen passed by, then another. Finally, the last rider came to the place where the old man sat. As this one drew near, the old man caught the rider"s eyes and said, "Sir, would you mind giving an old man a ride to the other side?" Reining (勒隹缰绳) his horse, the rider replied, "Sure." Seeing the old man was unable to lift his half-frozen (冻得半僵的) body from the ground, the rider got off the horse and helped the old man onto it.

The old man lowered himself slowly down from the horse, looked the rider straight in the eyes and replied, I"ve been there for some time. I think I know people well. I looked into the eyes of the other riders and immediately saw there was no worry about my situation. It would have been useless even to ask them for a ride.
