I went with some colleagues from my office for a dinner in a very popular local restaurant. It was 1 business time and the restaurant was packed. We 2 found a table in a corner for three of us.

    As soon as we sat down, we heard a crash when a cleaning boy 3 the floor with all the plates he was carrying. There was 4 and no one was saying or doing anything.

    In a flash I remembered my 5 many years ago. Once, I 6 in the airport because I had rushed there on my own on an empty stomach. I was picked up and taken care of by two 7. Now this was my chance to 8 it forward.

    I ran to the young man's side immediately, turned him on his back and screamed for someone to 9 a hot drink. Soon people started asking if I was a doctor. I said I was not, 10 I was skillful at blacking out(晕厥).

    The kid soon opened his eyes, 11 what had happened. I 12 him by saying it was OK and I had had a 13 experience. He had not eaten anything. I held the 14 drink to his mouth till he finished it and sat with him till he felt OK.By then the 15 had arrived. I asked her to give the kid something to eat. I offered to pay.

    The manager was kind enough to refuse the 16 and agreed to make sure the kid ate before he went home. By the time all this was 17 it was getting late for my colleagues. We hadn't 18 anything yet, so they decided to go home.

    I slowly walked home, not hungry any more, feeling 19 for the opportunity I pay forward the 20 I had received many years ago.

    Since having my son, I have found that I am always lucky enough to be surrounded by people willing to help.

    When he was eight weeks old, I had a(n) 1 to meet with a TV producer in New York City to talk about my career. It was Monday. Could I, a young mother with a newborn, 2 from my home outside Boston to meet him on Wednesday? It was a 3 chance. So I said yes.

    Honestly, it was 4. My son hated being in the car seat and ate very 5 during the long ride. 6we spent a comfortable Tuesday night at my parents' house in Connecticut, which is halfway between Boston and New York. When we 7New York, I handed my son over to my friend from college. A dad himself, he 8him in a coffee shop during my9. Everything went fine thanks to his help.

    When my son was four months old, my best friend was going through a difficult time. So I decided to fly to Florida to 10her. Without my husband, who had to work, I was 11to fly with the baby. But I figured it couldn't be 12than driving to New York when he was a newborn, and I had gotten through that.

    13, people I met on our trip were endlessly14. On the flight down, the airline worker got me an extra15because the flight wasn't full. A nice lady sitting close to us 16him while I went to the bathroom. Taxi drivers helped me fasten his car seat and loaded the awkward pushchair in their trunks. To17my son, my friend borrowed a lot of toys. We spent four 18days in Florida.

    If you want an opportunity to see the 19in people, try taking a baby on a trip. In my experience, when face-to-face, most people sincerely want to 20each other.

    A month ago, my friend Nick and I experienced a(n) 1 event. It was the evening of the fourth day on our hitchhiking(搭便车) trip to Morocco. We were 2 on the side of a main road in the cold 3. It was nearly dark. To our 4, there wasn't a single bit of grass where we could put up our tent. Finally, we reached a small town after 5 for about an hour and a half.

    We found a bar where we thought we might be able to 6 ourselves first. Then we would 7 where we are going. We each bought a coffee, but the barman, José， brought over some bread 8. Full of thankfulness for his generosity(慷慨), we explained to him what we were doing. He showed much interest in our 9.

    Then, we asked José if we could 10 on his floor. We were very worried he would refuse. 11, he said yes! Thinking he lived upstairs, we waited for him to lock us in 12 he could be sure we didn't 13 anything. To our surprise, he gave us the keys! He showed us how the 14 worked, said goodnight and was off.

    We all stood in 15. In only a few hours we had gone from standing in the cold rain to owning a 16 bar. All the fridges were 17 and there was a fair amount of money on the sideboard. We were amazed at how much he 18 us. Then it was a good night's sleep. The next morning, he 19 and we let him into his own bar. 20, he gave us a free meal, and then we were on our way.

    One day last June, Clifford Luther served a burger and fries to a man passing through his restaurant, Old West Express, in Saskatchewan, Canada. Two  1 later, the man returned and wrote him a  2 for $500,000. "I thought, they were good burgers and fries,  3 they weren't that good," Luther told CTV News.

    The 4 man was Bob Erb of British Columbia, who won Canada's $25 million Max jackpot (累计赌注) in November 2018 and has been giving money to people  5. He's donated his6 to food banks, the old people, and some organizations, and he 7 20 people in Terrace, his hometown, to get necessary care they couldn't 8.

    While giving the burger that first afternoon, Luther 9 Erb that his 25-year-old daughter had just got cancer in Vancouver, about 1,000 miles away. "He and I had a 10 experience. One of my children had cancer, too. But he died four years ago. So, I know the 11 a parent has," says Erb. "I 12 on the way home I'd 13 him some money so he could go to see his 14."

    Two days later when Erb was on his way back to British Columbia, he 15 the restaurant for another burger, which Luther 16 to buy him because Erb had tipped him well just two days ago. Erb said "no way" and asked the restaurant owner for a 17, then wrote the check and left it on the table. "Luther looked at the check and couldn't 18 anything. He just held his arms out," Erb says.

    Erb, 60, 19 works on a building site part-time and hasn't 20 twice about the $7 million he's given to his family, friends, and society. "If you have enough to feed yourself, you help others out," he says.
