It’s easy to see how to help others, but what about those whose needs aren’t so obvious? This story 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.

解析

有些需要帮助的人不是表面能看出的。
小题1:细节题。根据第二段第二行We stood behind the counter dishing out hot food to whoever came in.
小题2:细节题。根据第三段第二行I wondered what he was doing there and my jaw dropped in amazement when he joined the line for food中的in amazement可知应该是惊讶。
小题3:推理题。由第三段可知那个人穿着非常好，但是去来收容所接受施舍，我一开始认为这个人有问题。后来经过妈妈的解释知道有些人不一定是身体上需要帮助，也有可能是心理上需要安慰。我对他有了误解，所以本来应该向他道歉的。
小题4:段落大意题。由最后一段可知有些人的需求不是一开始就能被知道的。
