This was an unforgettable and wonderful experience. It happened about three years ago and it has had a effect on me. I would like to show respect (尊敬) here for the two men I do not know but whose actions gave a new to the words — kind and generous.
I was walking down a busy street on a cold, windy day in early . A homeless man, probably about 60 and without wearing any shoes, was begging for change on a street corner.
A BMW car stopped on the other side of the street and a man who was well dressed stepped out of the car. He was probably about years old．He was wearing a blue business suit with a deep red silk tie. He walked the street and over to the homeless man. Without saying anything, he first gave him a lot of and then he sat down and took off his leather gloves (手套), beautiful black leather shoes and his black dress socks. Then he them to the homeless man. The homeless man took them and stared (凝视) with a(n) mouth.
As he drove off, I can't thinking that it was probably the first time he had pressed(踩) the pedal (踏板) of that top-brand BMW car with a bare (光的) foot! I stood there and the looks of appeared on my face and the homeless man’s.
Two men of about the same age very different lives had met and the one who was in materials had offered than his shoes. He had left this BMW car and down from his high position. He held up the other man when he offered respect, and real generosity.
