On a cold December morning, my mother and I were walking home from pizza store. We were 35 warmly and equipped with the video we had been trying to watch. I was feeling a little tired 36 I was carrying our shopping bags of snacks and the video.
They were so 37 that I decided to throw away some of them. So I started to walk towards the dustbin when I noticed a poor man stepping out of the restaurant in front of us. He held a paper bag with his dirty hand. He 38 over to another nearby dustbin and started looking 39 it.
I suddenly felt very upset. I know this man would take all he could get, so I walked up to him and 40 the drink and some snacks to him. The man, with lines on his face and wrinkles(皱纹) on his forehead, looked up in 41 and took what I gave him.
A huge smile spread across his face and this made 42 feel indescribable satisfaction(满意). I felt like I couldn’t be happier with myself, but then he said, “Wow, first someone gives me this sandwich, then this drink, and now some tasty food, this is my daughter’s 43 day!”
