Question

I was driving home on a very hot afternoon and about to get near a crossing. One of the main traffic lights had gone off, and a police officer was standing in the middle of the busy street to direct(指挥) the traffic. Although he has no hat to keep out of the burning sun, he seemed very happy and was pleased about the job.

I needed to stop at the drugstore(药店) on the corner, and while I was there, I wanted to get some water for the officer. But I had some hesitation(犹豫), since it was uncomfortable for me to interact(交往) with a stranger in this way.

I left, drove halfway home, turned around, went back to the drugstore, got water and then found myself thinking about how to hand it to him in the busy crossing. I knew that he might not be able to take it, but I would like to try.

I drove into the crossing and offered the officer the bottle of water. Though he wasn’t able to take the bottle, he smiled, and said, “Thank you.”

I drove home, feeling good for what I had done. And I even called the police station that afternoon to make sure that they knew what a great job he did that day.
