After college graduation , I did all kinds of work . Now I am a sales agent and visit my customers all over England. That was a cold February morning and I was
41 to visit a store at 9 am. I parked my car, bundled my scarf around me and
42 up the street towards his shop front.
The street where his store was
43 was partially blocked by two large, ruddy faced workmen who were tearing up the concrete. I prepared myself for the
44 cat calls（起哄）. I was up early, out in the cold, and probably to be seen as a funny scene by two men I didn’t even
45 .
Then I stopped and
46 my own father. Both he and my grandfather had
47 much of their early careers working outside in similar jobs before they
48 and became engineers. I recalled how hard Dad worked, in all kinds of
49 ; how he’d come home with sunburn or frosting（冻伤）. I realized that if I felt cold then these two guys were probably
50 , given that it looked as though they’d already been
51 for hours.
My customer’s shop wasn’t open yet but I was beyond being annoyed at his
52 . I went to a coffee shop around the corner,
53 myself a hot chocolate, then two more with whipped cream. I made my
54 down the street towards the workmen. One of them turned to me with a wide smile and
55 me with a joke “Oh love, you shouldn’t have!” To his
56 , I passed him the tray with the two
57 chocolates. I replied, “Maybe not.
58 it’s too cold to be working outside today.”
I got two looks of genuine（真诚的）
59 , and a timely reminder that it’s as easy to be
60 as it is to prejudge, but the former is so much nicer! So I realize the things we do seem so small but important and do what we can to make this world better.
