Ten years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One day when I arrived to pick up my passenger at 2:30 am., the building was 1 except for a single light. Many drivers would just honk(按喇叭), but I always went to the door. It might be someone who needs my help, I 2 to myself. 

So I walked to the door and 3 . "Just a minute", answered a weak, elderly voice. After a while, the door opened. A small woman in her eighties stood 4 me. By her side was a small suitcase. All the furniture was covered with sheets(床单). In the corner was a paper box 5 of photos. 

I took the suitcase to the car, and then returned to help. She took my arm and we walked 6 toward the car. She kept thanking me for my 7 . "It's nothing," I told her. "I just try to treat my passengers the way I would want my mother 8 ."

"Oh, you're such a good man," she said. When we got in the 9 , she gave me an address, and then asked, "Could you drive through the city?" "It's not the 10 way," I answered quickly. "Oh, I'm in no 11 ," she said "I'm on my way to a hospice(临终关怀医院). I don't have any family left. The doctor says I don't have very long." I quietly 12 the meter(计价器). 

For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She 13 me the buildings where she had once worked, lived, and gone dancing as a girl. Sometimes she'd ask me to slow down in front of a particular building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying 14 .

Almost without thinking, I gave her a hug. This was perhaps the most 15 thing I had ever done in my life. Lost in thought, I wondered what would have happened if the woman had gotten an angry driver or if I had refused her.
