Many years ago, I owned a service station and roadhouse on the main road between Melbourne and Adelaide.
One very cold, wet night at about 3:30 a.m., there was a  36  on the front door of our house. A young man, wet from  37   to toe, explained that he had   38   out of petrol about 30 km up the road. He had left his pregnant wife and his two children   39   at the car and said that he would hitchhike(搭便车) back.
Once I had   40    a can with petrol, I took him back to his car where his two-year-old and four-year-old children were both   41 , saying that they were cold. Once the car had started, I suggested that he   42  me back.
Before leaving, I had turned the heater  43   in the roadhouse, so that when we went in, it was nice and  44   .While the little ones played and ran  45   ,I prepared bread and butter for the children, and hot chocolate for the  46  .
It was about 5 a.m. before they   47   .The young fellow asked me how much he   48  me and I told him that the petrol pump had   49  $15.He offered to pay “call-out fee”, but I wouldn’t accept it.
About a month later, I received a  50   from Interstate, a large bus company that we had been trying to  51  to stop off at our roadhouse for a long time. It   52   out that the young fellow I had helped was its general manager, the most  53   person in the company.
In his letter, he thanked me again and   54  me that, from then on, all their buses would stop at my service station. In this  55  ,a little bit of kindness was rewarded with a huge amount of benefits.
