I once took a walk along the street 1 a Saturday dusk, with a Pepsi can in my hand.
An old woman in ragged clothes, 2 was living on collecting used cans, jars and tins, moved
slowly towards me, with a bag on the back! 3 (walk) nearer, she looked up at me and then
fixed her eyes on my can. At that time, I hadn't finished my cola, so I gave 4 several coins
instead.
She stared at me for a few seconds 5 handed back the money. Quite confused, I asked:
"Why not? Isn't that 6 you want?"
"I am not a beggar," she said 7 (serious), word by word.
Instantly, I felt so sorry. I had intended 8 (help) her, completely misunderstanding her.
Thus I hurt her. What I could do at that moment was only to drink up the cola and handed her
9 emptied can. This time, she gave me a smile with 10 (satisfy) and gratitude in her eyes.
The woman is poor in material life but is so respectable as a man. I am not only moved but also
have learned a good lesson.
