Last week I talked with Mandy, a mother of a young teenager in my class. She was telling me how   21   it was for her son at school, because he is in a school uniform that doesn’t   22   him as he’s outgrown it. Since her husband and she both lost their   23   in the last couple of years, they have been searching and interviewing persistently (坚持不懈地).   24  , unfortunately they are still out of work.

Now I know the fact that they just can’t   25   a new one. She wiped away   26   as she told me sadly that she is   27   trying to buy a new shirt, then trousers, then… then shoes.

I know her well enough to know that she doesn’t   28   want to get my sympathy or help. She’s   29   asked for anything from me, either. She was just telling me the honest   30  . I felt moved to go to the   31   to draw money out from my own account through ATM and come back with a bit of savings of my own   32   I believe I can spare. I told her to just go and buy the   33  , and not to tell anyone that I did this but her husband.

I also made it clear to her that nothing is   34   —no payback, nothing. It’s a gift done, so I can enjoy   35  , and that is all I need right now. I told her that she was also doing me a favor,   36   she let me know everything. She was so   37   for what I had done for her that she was moved to tears, but I really just feel happy that her boy won’t continue to be   38   for his ugly uniform. I know what that is like, and as a victim of school bullying (恃强欺弱) when young, I can say   39   it hurts for a long time. I felt so   40   to be able to do this!
