It was a hot Sunday afternoon and the two of us were heading for the capital city. Suddenly my son gave a shout of pain. He had somehow managed to tangle up (围绕) his small body in his seat belt. I immediately pulled off the road.      I could have tried to stop a car, but they were driving by so fast. At that moment, I would have cut the belt if I had something to cut it with. Then I thought that I could retract (缩回) little further in order that it might work. But if that failed, my son"s little stomach would be squeezed even tighter.      Just then a man appeared. He wore a white shirt and trousers that I"d seen on Costa Rican cowboys and his clothes so dirty that I thought he might be a beggar or worse.      Yet when the stranger reached us, he asked me if I needed help. I pointed to my son and he took a look. He then bent down beside my son, tracing the path of the smooth seat belt with with his rough fingers. After a long moment, he asked my son to bend sideways and a little bit forward. He then put his hands on the belt, controlled it in a way that I still don"t understand now, and my son was free.      I thanked him warmly. I also reached into my wallet and gave him a bill, although his calm face suggested that he didn"t care about a reward. He had found a new way to use his roping skills, particularly those he used when freeing animals. And I had experienced the kindness.

Not only did I have to battle cracked and uneven pavements, I had to deal with the bad attitude of pedestrians and a cold rain. But I didn"t give up because of people like Tiffany Payne.     Payne, who has been using a wheelchair for 18 years, laughed at me,     "Imagine trying to get around town in the winter," she said.     I could see her point: You"re battling to get to a doctor"s appointment, but no one has shoveled after a big snowfall. Your choices: Move out and risk getting stuck, or reschedule the appointment.     Those of us fortunate enough to get around on our own two legs don"t give a second thought to the person in a wheelchair next to us at a crosswalk. That would require us to look down.     So I decided to try using a wheelchair to get a sample of what their lives are like. It wasn"t long before I saw that people who use wheelchairs are forced to deal with a lot of trouble.     During my experiment, I was ignored by store staff while shopping and bumped into by inattentive walkers without so much as an apology. Some people even gave me angry looks as if I were the one at fault.     Once in a store, a woman bumped into me trying to get to the new iPad. She didn"t say, "Excuse me."     When salespeople did offer assistance, they talked to people who were with me, instead of me. I wanted to yell, "Hey, I"m down here!"     Some salespeople talked to me as though I were a child or acted like they didn"t want to be bothered with me.     People who use wheelchairs want to be treated like everyone else. They also comprehend, so you don"t have to speak to them in a childlike, sing-song voice. It"s not very appealing, especially when the person is an adult. And most importantly, remember they have feelings that can be hurt just like yours.     Spending three days in a wheelchair made me look differently at those who have to use one. I hope you do the same.  1. The author writes the story to           . A. help those in wheelchairs gain self-confidence B. share his experience of acting as a wheelchair user C. ask people to show sympathy for those in wheelchairs D. call on people to respect and help those in wheelchairs 2. During his three days in a wheelchair, the author met all of the following difficulties EXCEPT           .  A. bad road conditions B. poor attitudes of ordinary people C. terrible medical service D. bad weather 3. What can we conclude from the article?    A. A wheelchair user may feel offended when you do not address him or her directly. B. Assistants in big stores are usually kind to people in wheelchairs. C. People in wheelchairs should fight for fair treatment. D. People in wheelchairs are usually hard to get along with. 4. Which of the following statements would the author agree to? A. Look down on a person in a wheelchair. B. Speak to a person in a wheelchair in a sing-song voice. C. Treat a person in a wheelchair as you would treat any other person. D. Offer assistance to a person in a wheelchair without asking for permission.
