couldn"t help but noticed a group of younger men at the table next to him. It was obvious they were
making fun of something about him and it wasn"t until he remembered he was wearing a small pink
ribbon (丝带) on the lapel of his suit that he became aware of what the joke was all about.
The man pretended not to notice it, but the whisper and laughter began to get to him. He looked one
of the rude young men straight into the eye, placed his hand beneath the ribbon and asked, "This?"
With that the young men all began to laugh out loud. The man he spoke to said, "Hey, sorry, man,
but we were just commenting on how pretty your little pink ribbon looks against your blue jacket!"
The middleaged man calmly invited the joker to come over to his table, and politely seated him. As
uncomfortable as he was, the young guy had to, not really sure why. In a soft voice, the middleaged man
said, "I wear this ribbon to bring awareness about breast cancer. I wear it in my mother"s honor. "
"Oh, sorry. She died of breast cancer?"
"No, she didn"t. She"s alive and well. But her breasts nourished me as a baby, and were a soft
resting place for my head when I was scared or lonely as a little boy. I"m very grateful for my mother"s
breasts, and her health. "
"Umm, "the young replied, "yeah. "
"And I wear this ribbon to honor my wife," the man continued.
"And she"s okay, too?" the young guy asked.
"Oh, yes. She"s fine. Her breasts have been a great source of loving pleasure for both of us, and with
them she nurtured and nourished our daughter 23 years ago. I"m grateful for my wife"s breasts, and her
health."
"Uh, huh. And I guess you wear it to honor your daughter, also?"
"No. It"s too late to honor my daughter by wearing it now. . . "
Shaken and ashamed, the young guy said, "Oh, I"m so sorry, mister."
"So, in my daughter"s memory, too, I proudly wear this little ribbon, which allows me the opportunity
to enlighten others. And here. . . "With this, he reached in his pocket and handed the young man a little
pink ribbon. The young guy looked at it, slowly raised his head and asked, ". . . ?"

"I h
ope he won"t ask me for any money, " I thought.He came and sat in front of the bus stop.After a few minutes he spoke."That"s a very pretty car, " he
said.He was in rags, but he had an air of dignity (尊严) about him.
I gave him a smile and continued cleaning my car.
He sat there quietly as I worked.The expected asking for money never came.As the silence between
us widened, it seemed that a voice inside me said, "Ask him if he needs any help."
"Do you need any help?" I asked.
He answered in three simple but meaningful words that I shall never forget.We often look for wisdom
in great men and women, and we expect it from those of higher learning and achievements.I expected
nothing but an outstretched (伸出的) dirty hand from him, but he said three words that shook me.
"Don"t we all?" he said.
I_was_feeling_high, successful_and_important_above_a_bum_in_the_street, until those three words
hit me like a shot.
Don"t we all?
I needed help.Maybe not for a bus fare or for a place to sleep, but I needed help.I reached in my
wallet and gave him not only enough for a bus fare, but enough to get a warm meal and shelter for the
day.Those three little words still ring true.No matter how much you have, you need help, too.No matter
how little you have, no matter how loaded you are with problems, even without money or a place to
sleep, you can give help.
Maybe God looked down, called an angel, dressed him like a bum, and then said, "Go to that man
cleaning the car.That man needs help."
Don"t we all?

| I shall never forget the night,a few years ago,when Marion J. Douglas was a student in one of my adulteducation classes.He told us how tragedy had struck at his home,no  t once,but twice.The first timehe had lost his fiveyearold daughter.He and his wife thought they couldn"t bear that first loss; but,as he said,"Ten months later,God gave us another little girl and she died in five days." This double bereavement was almost too much to bear."I couldn"t take it," this father told us"I couldn"t sleep,eat,rest or relax.My nerves were entirely shaken and my confidence gone."At last he went to doctors; one recommended sleeping pills and another recommended a trip,but neither helped.He said, "My body felt as if it was surrounded in a vice (大钳子),and the jaws of the vice were being drawn tighter and tighter." The tension of grief (悲伤)-if you have ever been paralyzed (使瘫痪) by sorrow,you know what he meant. "But thank God,I had one child left-a fouryearold son.He gave me the solution to my problem.One afternoon as I sat around feeling sorry for myself,he asked,"Daddy,will you build a boat for me?" I was in no mood to build a boat; in fact,I was in no mood to do anything.But my son is a persistent little fellow!I had to give in.Building that toy boat took me about three hours.By the time it was finished,I realized that those three hours spent building that boat were first hours of mental relaxation and peace that I had had in months!I realized that it is difficult to worry while you are busy doing something that requires planning and thinking.In my case,building the boat had knocked worry out of the ring.So I determined to keep busy." "The following night,I made a list of jobs that ought to be done.Scores of items needed to be repaired.Amazingly,I had made a list of 242 items that needed attention.During the last two years I have completed most of them.I am busy so that I have no time for worry." No time for worry!That is exactly what Winston Churchill said when he was working eighteen hour"s a day at the height of the war.When he was asked if he worried about his huge responsibilities,he said,"I am too busy.I have no time for worry." 1. The underlined word "bereavement" in the second paragraph refers to________. A. having lost a loved one B. having lost a valuable article C. having lost a profitmaking business D. having lost a wellpaid job 2. Marion felt his body as if it was caught in a vice because________. A. he couldn"t earn enough money to support his family B. he was suffering from sleeplessness disease C. he couldn"t get out of mental pressure D. he felt tired of adulteducation classes 3. Marion made a list of over 200 items that needed to be repaired because________. A. he hadn"t been able to spare time to mend them B. he wanted to kill his free time by repairing them C. the items had actually been broken and needed attention D. repairing the items helped crowd worry out of his mind 4. At the end of the passage,the author wrote about Winston Churchill in order to________. A. prove that he followed Churchill"s example B. support his student"s solution to his problem C. show that he was successful in his career D. clarify how his conclusion was reached | |||||||||||
