摘要:难忘的事件(An Unforgettable Incident)…
Some people live in the world for body while others for dignity.

I once took a walk along the street on a Saturday dusk, with a Pepsi can in my hand. An old woman in ragged clothes staggered towards me, with a sack on the back another poor woman living on collecting used cans, jars and tins! Walking 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 her several coins instead.

I was wrong.

She stared at me for a few seconds and handed back the money. Quite confused I asked:"Why not? Isn't that what you want?"

"I am not a beggar," she said seriously, word by word.

Instantly, I felt so sorry. I had intended to help her, regarded her as a beggar instead of an ordinary man. Thus I hurt her.What I could do at that moment was only to drink up the cola and handed her the emptied can. This time, she gave me a smile with some gratification 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.
