A US bus driver is being praised for the way she helped a passenger get some needed assistance (帮助). In October, bus driver Natalie Barnes started 1 with a passenger named Richard. He told her he had been 2 for a week, since there was a big fire in the place where he had been living and his house was 3.
When he asked if he could 4 along for the night to stay out of the 5, she agreed. "At some point in our lives, everybody needs 6," Barnes said, "I want to do what I could to help Richard in some way." At one point during her shift, she took a 7, at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and 8 to get her passenger something to eat. Richard was 9. "Now I don't know what to say but to say thank you," he said to Barnes and promised to 10 her back somehow.
She 11, saying, "I want to help you." But one act of kindness wasn't 12 for Barnes. During another break, she turned to a friend for help, who helped get Richard into temporary (临时的) 13.
Barnes and Richard became 14 during that six-hour bus ride. Now he has her cellphone number, and they keep in 15.
Helping others comes second nature for Barnes, who has received lots of praise for 16 service since she worked in the MCTS two years ago. She 17 takes peanut butter and jelly sandwiches on the bus to share with people in 18.
In fact, Barnes did what we all need to do to 19 homelessness: to look out for each other, to 20 each other and to work together.
