Question

A few years ago, I worked a 12-hour night shift(夜班) and got home from work.

I was on my way back home and was very tired. I     at a restaurant to have breakfast. Right after I placed my order, I saw a man come in. He was carrying a small backpack and looked like he had seen better times. He reached in his pocket and pulled out some    . He asked the waitress if 38 cents was     to buy a cup of coffee. She looked at his backpack and said, “    . Have a seat.” (Coffee was 50 cents a cup at the time.) It really touched me how she had tried to protect his pride and how he hadn’t asked for any charity.

   Shortly before my     came, I asked the waitress to come over. I said, “You know, I am not feeling well. I don’t think I am going to be able to eat my breakfast. Do you think there is       here who might eat it?” She first asked if I was OK and then she   . She said, “I think so. Are you sure?” I told her that I was sure.

    She then walked over to the gentleman and told him that I had ordered food and it was too    to stop the order but I didn’t feel like eating. Would he be so kind as to take it      they wouldn’t have to throw it away? I had walked to the cash register(收银台) and was paying for the meal. At the cash register, I asked if they had gift cards. They did. I bought one   $25.00 and asked them to give it to the gentleman after I left.
