　　I took off,but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car.I stopped and wondered what I should do.A car pulled up behind me.It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station.They said they would take me to my friends.We chatted on the way into the city,and when I got out of the car,the husband gave me his business card.

　　I wrote him and his wife a thank you note for helping me.Soon afterward,I received a Christmas present from them.Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.

　　Years later,I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning.In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that Id left the lights on all day,and the battery(电池)was dead.Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealershipa shop selling carswas right next door.I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.
