閱讀下面兩篇短文,從短文後所給各題的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項。

I was headed for the UMW woman's basketball game yesterday. Suddenly, I saw an old fellow, maybe 65 years old,     1     next to a stop sign on William Street. He seated himself on the ground, wearing     2     clothes and an oversized jacket.

I     3     my car and got out, walking up to this old man and asked, “ How are you doing?” He looked at me surprisingly, just like I was going to     4     him, and he said, "l am fine, just making a(n)     5    .” He looked embarrassed as he said, “I live on the     6    ." I could see that he was     7     and had no family members around to help him. The one thing that     8     me was that he never asked me for anything, no money or food.

This reminded me of many monks who had given up all their     9     and owned nothing but a     10     bowl and maybe a piece of cloth for clothing. I asked him     11     it was fine if I could give him some     12    . He looked up and said     13    ,“ Well,anything helps. I don’t care.” I gave him a folded 50-dollar bill    14     in small notes so he couldn't see it yet. He thanked me     15     and said, "God bless you t sir. ” I asked him if he wanted to come in and     16     the basketball game, “I go to UMW and our women’s team is pretty good," I added, “ You should come and watch the game if you have time." He nodded. I walked hack to my car, but looked back. I saw him     17     with his backpack and start walking toward the     18    .

My giving was like a ripple in a(n)     19    . One act may be small, but if you drop a stone in a river, it will make hundreds of ripples     20     outward and comfort others.
