TODAY’s key word is Heartwarming
Heartwarming 暖心的，感人的
Something that is heart-warming makes you happy, usually because something nice has happened to you.
Here is an example:
Buying gifts for those we love should be a heartwarming experience.
为所爱的人选购礼物应该是一种很温暖的体验。
大家有没有觉得天气一天天变凉了呢，特别是早上和晚上。
我们今天就来说一个暖心的故事，温暖一下大家的心。
这个故事发生在加拿大:
One day, Godfrey Cuotto, a 22-year-old student was on his way home on a crowded bus(拥挤的公交车). 突然，他听到坐在他身边的男人说，希望能跟他握一下手，因为这拥挤的公交车让他感到十分不安。
面对这样一个意外的请求。Godfrey allowed(同意) him to hold his hand and also to hug him and lean 1 against him on the journey 2.
lean against him
斜靠在他身上
He later said that 'Sometimes you just have to be selfless(无私) and put someone else's needs above yours.'
这一幕感人的场景，被在同一辆车上的网友拍下来，发到了facebook上。发照片的网友说：我不知道我能不能发这张照片，but I would like to say thank you to the guy who was seating beside a special needs gentleman. He allowed him to hold his hand and find comfort 3 well in a packed bus. It makes my day when I see stuff 4 like that.'(make my day令我开心)
后来，被安慰的男人的家人，在facebook上看到了这条消息后，感谢了Godfrey. 他们说，他们的叔叔Robert是一名听力障碍人士，同时还患有大脑性麻痹，公交车上拥挤的人群让患病的他感到十分的紧张和不安。
The photo has garnered（获得）nearly 45,000 likes with more than 10,000 shares on Facebook.
Here are some comments(评论)：
Melissa Mustapha posted: 'That beautiful really put a smile on my face.' Jamie Shaffer said: 'Despite 5 all the negativity in the world, people are still amazing.'Godfrey 自己说，我之所以能这么做，是因为 'I was raised by a queen 6.'
这让人联想起电影Kingsman中的经典台词“Manners Maketh Man”
