  One day I was on a bus. I found an elderly woman standing 1 in front of me. Shehad a big bag in her hand. "It's a virtue 2 for a young person to help theold,"I said to myself.

When I was standing up to give my seat to the old lady, a young foreigner gotup quickly saying, "Please sit down."The old lady thanked him and sat down.

She looked very happy.

I was a little embarrassed because I was sitting in the middle of the bus.

Suddenly a pregnant 3 woman got onto the bus. I quickly stood up to give up myseat to her. The foreigner smiled at me. He said that he was an Australian,and was a student studying Chinese culture in China.

一天,我在一辆公共汽车上。我发现一位年长的妇人站在我的面前,她手里拿了个大包。“帮助老人是年轻人的美德。”我对自己说。



当我正要站起来把自己的座位让给那位老妇人时,一个年轻的外国人很快站了起来,说:“请这里坐。”老妇人谢谢他,然后坐下,她看上去非常高兴。



我有一点尴尬,因为我坐在车厢的中间。突然一个孕妇上了车。我很快地站起来把座位让给了她。那个外国人笑着看着我,他说他是澳大利亚人,正在中国学习中国文化
