An Unforgettable Incident
Some people live in the world for body while others for dignity.
I once took a walk along the street on a Saturday dusk, with a Pepsi can in my hand. An old woman in ragged clothes staggered towards me, with a sack on the back another poor woman living on collecting used cans, jars and tins! Walking nearer she looked up at me and then fixed her eyes on my can.At that time, I hadn't finished my cola, so I gave her several coins instead.
I was wrong.
She stared at me for a few seconds and handed back the money. Quite confused I asked:"Why not? Isn't that what you want?"
"I am not a beggar," she said seriously, word by word.
Instantly, I felt so sorry. I had intended to help her, regarded her as a beggar instead of an ordinary man. Thus I hurt her.What I could do at that moment was only to drink up the cola and handed her the emptied can. This time, she gave me a smile with some gratification and gratitude in her eyes. The woman is poor in material life but is so respectable as a man. I am not only moved but also have learned a good lesson.
簡(jiǎn) 評(píng)
這篇短文全長(zhǎng)214字，卻生動(dòng)地展現(xiàn)了一個(gè)貧而不賤的老嫗形象�，F(xiàn)在的大街小巷上，�？煽匆�(jiàn)老人、兒童、甚至中年人街頭乞討。這些人中有些肯定是為生活所迫，但見(jiàn)得多了則難免讓人懷疑他們中的有些人是否在騙取我們的同情。而這位衣衫檻褸、生活困頓的老婦人卻靠“拾荒”自食其力。文章對(duì)老婦人的描寫著墨不多，但短短幾句話，一個(gè)雖然身處社會(huì)最底層卻自尊自強(qiáng)的可敬形象卻躍然紙上。
文貴在新。這篇文章的語(yǔ)言雖然不很老練，內(nèi)容安排也有不少可以改進(jìn)之處，但和很多老生常談、無(wú)病呻吟的文章比起來(lái)，讓人覺(jué)得言之有物、感情真摯。
