I went to complete some incomplete business this afternoon. I 1 the car and was walking towards my destination (目的地), when from a distance I saw a (n) 2 man walking towards me in the opposite direction.
As we came close, I saw that he was walking 3 in measured steps and there was a look of pain on his face. He was not feeling 4, which I could clearly see. I moved on, wanting to go 5 and complete my 6 work.
I soon 7 my destination, completed my work and was 8 where the car was parked, when 9 from a distance I saw the same man sitting on the road. I went up to him.
I bent down and saw that he was tired and 10. I was concerned and asked him where he stayed 11 my intention was to 12 him home in my car. He gave me the name of the place where he stayed, 13, the name didn't seem familiar and I didn't want to spend too much time 14 the place, considering the condition of my elderly friend. I 15 on the opposite side of the road were a few auto rickshaws (自动人力车).
I knew the auto rickshaw drivers were the best 16 to unknown places. I called one of the auto rickshaws over and told the 17 to take my friend to his place. After a brief conversation with the man, the driver had a fairly good idea of the direction he had to take to reach the 18. I asked him about the 19 and gave him the money.
My friend 20 his hand and said softly, “Thank you!” I waved back to the stranger who briefly came, touched my life, and moved away, never to be seen again.
