I was in my parked car, holding a book and reading. Once in a while I _________ watching the people passing by. _________ I raised my eyes again, I saw an old lady with a large bag walking slowly towards my car. The bag seemed not only to make her steps _________, but also make her out of breath. She looked tired and I thought she must be more than seventy years old.
She stopped and put a hand out to rest _________ my car, gently closed her eyes and took a deep breath. I wondered if I could do _________ for her. I tried to keep my body still while my mind _________ for answers. However, because of my careless head movement, she noticed me, and she _________ moved her hand away from the car. I picked up a bottle of water at once, opened the door and _________ the bottle to her, she look at me and then shook her head and walked away.
I was so _________ with myself. I should have been more careful not to move. Instead of __________ a hand, I had interrupted(打扰) the old lady’s __________ moment of rest. I was feeling blue. __________ at that moment, I saw the lady coming back again. I opened the door and patted the __________ next to me. She sat down, open her bag and offered me a banana. I took it and offered her the bottle of water again. She took it.
I ate, she drank and we smiled. She __________ for a couple of minutes. Those minutes brought such quietness to me. Then she took my head in both her hands, made a small kissing __________ in the air, opened the car door and walked away. I was trying to help someone in distress(苦恼). In turn, I became distressed and she took away my distress and replaced it with quietness.
