Question

I had nothing for breakfast that morning. I was so ______ that I could hear my stomach growling (咕咕叫). So when the bell rang, I rushed to the dining hall at once. Minutes later, I stood in front of the counter (收银台), holding a plate full of food.

“Three dollars,” the lunch lady told me. I reached my hand into my ______ and the schoolbag was empty. I put the schoolbag on the floor to search for the money again. As I finally ______ the money wasn’t there, I could feel the ______ and fear washing over me.

Feeling quite ______, I didn’t notice that another person had stepped up to the counter. I finally looked up to tell the lunch lady my ______.

“I’m sorry. I don’t have any money with me.”

“Oh,dear, he paid for your lunch. You’re good,” the lunch lady said as she pointed to the direction the boy had gone.

I missed the chance to ______ him. He was nameless to me. He didn’t ______ know me. But he paid for my lunch. Although it was only three dollars, I couldn’t remember anyone doing something so nice for me.

A month later, on my way home, I saw an elderly woman struggling (费力) with heavy bags. I suddenly thought of the nameless boy who ______ me lunch.

“Excuse me, ma’am (夫人), do you need help?”

I’ll never forget her ______ as I rushed forward to lend her a hand. It’s the very prize for my act of kindness.
