39、e of whom is Ms Myrtle Smith. To answer our reporters why-question, she told us the following story which, as she put it, had led her to the work for the less fortunate people. It was Thanksgiving morning and in the crowded kitchen of my small home I was busy preparing the traditional Thanksgiving t
40、urkey when the doorbell rang. I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags huddling together inside the storm door on the top step. “ Any old papers, lady?” asked one of them. I was busy. I wanted to say “ no” until I looked down at their feet. They were wearing thin little sandals(凉鞋
41、), wet with heavy snow. “ Come in and Ill make you a cup of hot cocoa.” They walked over and sat down at the table. Their wet sandals left marks upon the floor. I served them cocoa and bread with jam to fight against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started again on my household
