Question

Just returned from a trip to New Jersey. On the way back, I was stopped by a traffic accident. This accident happened because of a truck carrying a lot of dangerous materials that were leaking out (外漏). After being told by the policeman that we would be sitting there until the clean-up was completed. We drivers got out of the truck to have a rest. For most of the time ,there were five of us standing by my truck, complaining(抱怨).

Another truck with two elderly people stopped near us. The man, Joe, let the window down and asked why no one was moving. Soon we were all talking with this couple. I said that if I had known about this, I would have bought something to drink, because I was becoming thirsty. The lady, Anna, said that they had plenty of water in the fridge in their truck and offered everyone something to drink. She said she could make sandwiches for us. While Anna was making the sandwiches, she was singing like a songbird. Being close to 70, I guessed, she had a fantastic voice.

I saw a Mississippi license on the truck. I asked what part of Mississippi they were from.Joe said they were from Biloxi. Knowing that Biloxi was damaged by a hurricane, I asked him about the disaster(災難). Joe said that they had lost almost everything. Everything they had was in the truck.

Joe said that their son was living around Harrisonburg, Virginia and they were going there. There was a home for sale and they were going to start all over again there. Starting over at their age, we know, would not be easy

These wonderful people lost practically(實際上地) everything they had and still would not accept any money for their food and drinks. Joe said that it was better to give than to receive.
