     After shopping, Mother and I went to a restaurant for lunch. I notice Mother looking at a nearby table
occupy by an elderly woman and young couple. They are silently, and it was clearly that things were not
going well. As we left, Mother stopped on their table. "Excuse me," she said, put her arm around the
unhappy old woman. "You remind me so many of my mother. May I hug (拥抱) you?" The woman smiled
happily as she accepted to it. After we left, I said, "That was very nice of you, Mother. So I didn't think she
looked like Grandma." "Neither did me." said Mother cheerfully.
