Free Sweets in His Taxi to Delight and Heal（治愈）

Mansoor Khalid, a 37-year-old electrical engineer from Pakistan, has been driving a yellow taxi in New York City since 1996. In 2010, his son, Saad, was born with a heart disease. Every time Mr. Khalid visited him in the hospital after his day shift（轮班）, he would bring much _________ to drink during nights to take care of his son. He even gave some to the doctors and nurses there, who called him "coffee man".

Last April, Saad died at 18 months old. Although Mr. Khalid was so sad, he had to _________ to work. After his son's death, he got into the habit of buying some sweets for his passengers, which nearly cost him $300 every month.

From his experience in the hospital with his son, Mr. Khalid learned that giving to others could at least _________ his feeling of loss, if not heal it.

"I'd like to buy something for people; I feel _________," Mr. Khalid said. "When you give something from your hand, someone gives a smile to you in return.”

Since then, he has become famous on the Internet. His kind behavior _________ a lot of customers, with more pickups from fans who send their positions to him on Twitter or Facebook.

But he doesn't expect the 13,000 other yellow taxis to do the same. The $300 a month Mr. Khalid spends on candy would _________ help many people to support their families for a time. Actually, it is not a small sum.

"If you think about it, you will _________ why he does it, after all, you don't get that sort of kindness very often." said Juan Miranda, who drives Mr. Khalid's taxi during the nights.

"Everybody is sometimes unhappy and stressed. Living in New York City is not very easy, so when passengers see all the candies, chocolates, they will cheer up in a short time," Mr. Khalid explained. "Some people even start crying with _________."

Edward rose early on the New-year morning. He looked in every room and wished a Happy New Year to his family. Then he ran into the street to repeat that to those he might meet.

When he came back, his father gave him two bright, new silver dollars.

His face lighted up as he took them. He had wished for a long time to buy some pretty books that he had seen at the bookstore.

He left the house with a light heart, expecting to buy the books. As he ran down the street, he saw a poor family.

"I wish you a happy New Year." said Edward, as he was happily passing on. The man shook his head.

"You are not from this country?" said Edward. The man again shook his head, for he could not understand or speak his language. But he pointed to his mouth, and to the children shaking with cold, as if（好像）to say, "These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time." Edward quickly understood that these poor people were in trouble. He took out his dollars, and gave one to the man and the other to his wife.

They were excited and said something in their language, which doubtless meant, "We thank you so much that we will remember you all the time."

When Edward came home, his father asked what books he had bought. He hung his head a moment, but quickly looked up.

"I have bought no books," said he, "I gave my money to some poor people, who seemed to be very hungry then." He went on, "I think I can wait for my books till next New Year."

"My dear boy," said his father, "Here are some books, more as a reward for your goodness of heart than as a New-Year gift."

"I saw you give the money cheerfully to the poor German family. It was nice for a little boy to do so. Be always ready to help others and every year of your life will be to you a Happy New Year."
