Has helping people become a thing of the past? Walking through the crowds of today’s busy cities, you might think so. It seems people are too busy or too afraid to lend a hand to someone they don’t know.  But at Radio Beijing today, two friends would like to share their experiences with the listeners.

Hazel Johansen

One Sunday morning, I was running late for work.  As I drove off, I noticed an elderly lady from the neighborhood.  She was pulling a large piece of wood out of the rain. I wanted to help, but I was in a hurry.

I hesitated （猶豫） for a moment. Then I stopped my car, got out and helped her move the wood. Months went by. Then one day, I was walking in the street and saw some workmen cleaning out an old store. There in the dark and dirty corner was a large Coca-Cola cooler. How fun! The workmen said I could have it, so I picked it up and started home. I didn’t get very far. It was much heavier than I thought.  How could I get this to my home? Then out of the blue, the elderly lady appeared — with a handcart! I had helped her, and just when I needed it, she was there and returned the favor （幫忙）.

Rachel Swats — The Irish Helper

Going to the hospital is no fun —— especially when you live in a foreign culture. I recently went to see a doctor in the US. When I got there, I discovered I had forgotten to bring enough money to pay for my treatment. I had my credit card in my pocket, and I thought I could use that. However, I was wrong! For some reason, my card didn’t work. And even the hospital’s ATM wouldn’t let me take money. Since I couldn’t pay, I couldn’t get the treatment I needed.

I was so sad that I began to cry.  Unluckily, when I started crying, I had trouble stopping. I was making quite a big noise!

Everybody else in line was getting impatient （不耐煩的）. Just at that very moment, a lovely Irish woman appeared and asked me what I needed. I told her my problem. She immediately handed me $1,000, along with her business card, so I could repay her later.

I was able to pay and get the treatment.  When I got back home, I emailed the Irish woman. We’ve been in touch ever since!
