A few years ago,I spared a couple of hours from busy academic learning to work in a video store on a daily basis.There was something in the elderly woman's behavior that caught my eye.Although slow and unsure of step,the woman moved with deliberation,and there was no hesitation in her gestures.And she had a job to do.
The elderly woman had walked into the store along with a younger woman who guessed was her daughter.The daughter was displaying a serious case of impatience,checking her watch every few seconds.The older woman detached from the younger one and began to tick through the DVDs on the nearest shelf.After the slightest hesitation,I walked over and asked if I could help her find something.The woman smiled up at me and showed me a title scrawled on a crumpled(皺巴巴的)piece of paper,The title was a bit difficult to understand.Clearly a person looking for it knew a little about movies,about quality.
Rather than rushing off to locate the DVD for the woman,I asked her to walk with me so I could show her where she could find it.Something about her deliberate movements reminded me of my own mother,who'd departed this life last Christmjye.ai.As we walked along the back of the store,I narrated its floor plan.The woman seemed glad of the unrushed company and casual conversation.We found the movie,and I complimented(稱贊) her on her choice.Then,reluctantly,I had to return the elderly woman to her keeper,who was still tapping her foot at the front of the store.
I walked over to the younger woman. "Is that your mom? "I asked.She rolled her eyes and said, "Yeah. "There was annoyance in her reply,half sigh and half complaint.Still watching the mother,I said, "Mind some advice? " "Sure, "said the daughter.I smiled to show her I wasn't criticizing.I answered her curious expression by saying "When she's gone,it s the little moments that will come back to you.Moments like this.I used to let it slip.I know."

2.In the city I live in,we have a small local national park full of trees.I like that place very much,although I do wish it was bigger.
One day,I was walking around in the park along a path (小路) when I saw a beautiful squirrel (松鼠) lying in the middle of the path.I stopped and found that there was something wrong with one of its legs.
Just at that time,a man with two little kids was behind me.They were my neighbors.They were going up the same path.I said hello to jye.aim.The dad asked me, "Why are you standing still here?" I said,"Look!Here is a beautiful squirrel,but...." Noticing the squirrel,one of the kids shouted, "Quickly dad,catch it for me.I want to put it in my birdcage." His brother nodded,asking their dad to catch the squirrel.
Then I stopped them."Please wait.Do you really want to catch it and put it into the birdcage?" My neighbor said, "Yes.I will catch it and take it home." I said angrily, "Animals are our friends and this is the last place in our city that the squirrel can live in.We must protect them.If we are kind to this tiny animal then we can start to be kind to bigger ones." My neighbor smiled and said,"You misunderstood me.I will take it home and cure (治療) it and when it is well,I will take it back to the park and set it free.Do you come long with me?"After hearing his words,I became happy.I followed him with the injured squirrel to his home.A few days later,when the squirrel was well,we took it back to the park and sent it free.
