may have happened a while back, but it was a lesson which has stayed with me and helped me ever since.
It was Thanksgiving and I was volunteering with my parents at a shelter for the poor. We stood behind
the counter dishing out hot food to whoever came in. most of our dinners looked like they had been
having hard times, their clothes old, worn and dry. In short, they looked poor!
Then, a man came in, who looked anything but poor. He was well dressed, wearing an expensive suit.
I wondered what he was doing there and my jaw dropped in amazement when he joined the line for food. The closer he came to my service station, the more I muttered. What was this man doing? I wanted to
know. Surely he wasn"t gong to take food.
Then my mother quietly took me to one side. She said, "You have assumed that the needs of the
people who come here must be purely physical: hunger, inadequate shelter and needs are emotional?
What if he needs comfort, friends, or just to be among other human beings?" her words hit me like a ton
of bricks! I felt like I should apologize to the man, but I didn"t.
About a week later the shelter received a large donation from an anonymous source. I can"t help but
wonder if it came from that man.
Now, whether I meet others, I remember my mother"s words and try to send kindness and blessings
to them, regardless of how they look.
Needs aren"t always visible. But kindness always makes a difference.
B. learn life experience there
C. serve hot food to the poor
D. help parents order dishes
B. Pitiful
C. Excited
D. Angry
B. gave the man food much less than others
C. realized something was wrong with the man
D. knew later that the man went there to donate
B. Some needs can"t be known clearly at times
C. Needs can always be met by kindness
D. We should find out others" needs

the living room and bedrooms or cleaning the furniture, and putting everything in good order. She seems

she looks as cheerful and happy as ever. Mother never buys expensive dresses for herself, but she often

too busy to cook herself. She lives a busy yet simple life, without any complaints.
Often she says to us, "work while you work, and play while you play. That is the way to be happy
and gay. If you do not work, you will become lazy and be of no use to society". What a piece of good
advice this is! 5 . This advice of hers will always serve as a guide to my behavior. My mother is great
