I was going on vacation to meet up with family for a week of fun in Denver. I got to the airport, ready to leave my work behind for a few days.

     I was comfortably awaiting my flight with a good book to read, when an elderly lady was wheeled to our waiting area. I couldn't help but notice the trouble she was having trying to open a packet of nuts with her shaking hands. I sighed. No one else was willing to meet her gaze (目光) so I offered to help.  

     She was very grateful. It turned out that these nuts were her entire breakfast. We sat and chatted. When the time came to board the plane the attendants (服務員) were nowhere to be seen. The lady could walk but needed some help, so I volunteered to help her on the plane and carry her bag.

     As I helped her get settled I noticed her "seat mate," a businessman, looked a bit horrified at having to make the fight with her. He offered to change seats with me — and I agreed.

     We landed and I needed to change planes, but I helped her disembark (下飛機) first. The wheelchair she ordered was nowhere to be seen so we slowly walked to gate where her daughter was waiting.

     We only exchanged first names, and she was so grateful to have my help. I had to run to catch my connection but, as I thought about the experience, I saw her as my airport angel: a chance for me to hope that in the future when I'm in my 80's and traveling, someone will take the time to connect with me. Pay it forward.

56. What had the author planned to do during the flight?

  A. Reading.        B. Helping others.          C. Resting.            D. Sleeping.

  B. She was unable to find her daughter in the airport.

  C. The airport attendant could hardly help her.

  D. She didn’t know where to board the plane.

58. How did the author show his kindness?

  A. He offered to change seats with the elderly lady.

  B. He went all the way to wait for her daughter.

  C. He invited all those nearby to offer hands.

  D. He managed to help the elderly lady all the way.

59. Why does the author feel grateful?

  A. He believes he may find help if he is in need later.

  B. He was appreciated deeply by everyone nearby.

  C. He was looking forward to live up to 80 as the old lady.

  D. He can get paid forward later in money.

Recently, one of my best friends, whom I've shared just about everything with since the first day of kindergarten, spent the weekend with me. Since I moved to a new town several years ago，we've both always looked forward to the few times a year when we can see each other.

Over the weekend, we spent hours and hours, staying up late into the night, talking about the people she was hanging around with. She started telling me stories about her new boyfriend, about how he experimented with drugs and was into other self­destructive behaviour. I was blown away! She told me how she had been lying to her parents about where she was going and even stealing out to see this guy because they didn't want her around him. No matter how hard I tried to tell her that she deserved better, she didn't believe me. Her self­respect seemed to have disappeared.

I tried to convince her that she was ruining her future and heading for big trouble. I felt like I was  getting nowhere. I just couldn't believe that she really  thought it was acceptable to hang out with a bunch of losers, especially her boyfriend.

By the time she left，I was really worried about her and exhausted by the experience. It had been so frustrating，I had come close to telling her several times during the weekend that maybe we had just grown too far apart to continue our friendship, but I didn't. I put the power of friendship to the final test. We'd been friends for far too long. I had to hope that she valued me enough to know that I was trying to save her from hurting herself. I wanted to believe that our friendship could conquer anything.

A few days later, she called to say that she had thought long and hard about our conversation, and then she told me that she had broken up with her boyfriend. I just listened on the other end of the phone with tears of joy running down my face. It was one of the truly rewarding moments in my life. Never had I been so proud of a friend.
