It was the 2015 “super storm” in New South Wales that restored my faith in people.
During a break in the weather, I stupidly decided to drive into town to buy some groceries. However, as I left the supermarket and drove back, the weather took a turn for the worse. 1. Having nowhere to go, I spotted a young man in his front yard assessing the situation. He quickly waved to me to come and park in his driveway.2..
The man, who introduced himself as Trent, then invited me to wait inside his house with his wife, Kayti and their two daughters. I told him I was concerned about the damage to my car, as the continuing rain was starting to turn into hail (冰雹).Trent then grabbed a blanket from his garage and covered my car. 3. Fortunately, his efforts saved my car from being damaged by the hail.
By 11:00 a.m., the electricity and phone services had both gone. 4. Trent made me a cup of tea and Kayti gave me a towel to dry myself off. The three of us chatted while waiting for the weather to get better. I learned that Trent had lost his job and was struggling to feed the family.
When the hail stopped, I shook Trent’s hand and kissed Kayti goodbye. 5. I was very moved by their kindness and it renewed my faith in people.
As I went out the door, I asked Trent for two of his business cards. My father has since called to offer him a job as a clerk at his company.

B. The couple were so modest as I thanked them for their help.
C. I was surprised that he didn’t ask for anything in return for his assistance.
D. I was grateful to escape the running water that was about to drown my car.
