As a substitute teacher, my daily routine involves driving to a new school almost every day so I'm usually unable to anticipate(預(yù)料)the day's events, good or bad!
On one particular day,1 was teaching in a very difficult classroom.1 was managing behavior all morning and by lunch time, I knew I needed coffee to even consider surviving the afternoon.So on my lunch break, I drove to a nearby plaza to get a cup of coffee.Upon returning to the car I realized l had locked my keys and my phone inside! I had about 15 minutes to get back to the school which was a good 4 or 5-minute drive away.I contemplated(思考)rushing back, but it being winter, I thought a nasty fall on ice would only make the situation much worse.
So I ran into a McDonald's which was in the same plaza and asked the man at the counter who happened to be the manager to please call me a cab.I briefly explained my situation to him, and I could tell by the look in his eyes, that he empathized.He hurried to the back to use the phone while I paced in the restaurant.I had less than 10 minutes to get back to my school at this point.
The manager returned only to tell me that the cab company had put him on hold and then the line got disconnected, and that he was now on hold again, but had not yet been able to request the cab yet My expression, I assume, began to resemble some combination of hopelessness and fear.
Without a thought, he grabbed his coat and offered to drive me to the school Without hesitation, I followed him into his car and made it back into my classroom with 2 minutes to spare before the bell! calm behavior and kind nature made
Upon arriving at the school, l thanked this man endlessly.His calm behavior and kind nature made me think he was probably a wonderful manager to work for, and also a wonderful human being to have on this earth.This experience makes me realize that out of every seemingly hopeless situation, there is the opportunity for acts of kindness to transpire(發(fā)生)'which can have an unimaginable impact(影響) on those who receive them.

Almost everybody in America will spend a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart.They will, in a lifetime, push the chrome-plated contraptions many miles.But few will know - or even think to ask - who it was that invented them.
Sylvan N.Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937.At that time he was in the supermarket business.Every day he would see shoppers lugging groceries around in baskets they had to carry.
One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels.The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business.
On June 4, 1937, Goldman's first carts were ready for use in his market.He was terribly excited on the morning of that day as customers began arriving.He couldn't wait to see them using his invention.
But Goldman was disappointed.Most shoppers gave the carts a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try.
After a while, Goldman decided to ask customers why they weren't using his carts."Don't you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket?" one shopper replied.
But Goldman wasn't beaten yet.He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try.To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this.the real customers gradually began copying the phony (假冒的) customers.
As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers to his market.But not only did more people come - those .ho came bough, more. With larger easier-to-handle baskets, customers unconsciously bought a greater num e.of items than before.
Tody's shopping carts are five times larger than Goldman’s original model.Perhaps reason America today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937 - before the coming of the shopping cart.
