1 . It was a beautiful day for sightseeing around downtown Portland. We were a bunch of advisers on our day off, away from the campers, just out for some fun. The weather was perfect for a picnic, so when lunch time came, we set our sights on a small park in town. Since we all had different desires, we decided to split up (分组), get what each of us wanted, and meet back on the grass in a few minutes.

When my friend Robby headed for a hot dog stand, I decided to keep her company. We watched the vendor (小贩) put together the perfect hot dog, just the way Robby wanted it. But when she took out her money to pay him, the man surprised us. “It looks a little flat on one side,” he said, “so never mind paying me. This will be free of charge.” We said our thanks, joined our friends in the park, and dug into our food.

But as we talked and ate, I was distracted by a man sitting alone nearby, looking at us. I could tell that he hadn’t showered for days. Another homeless person, I thought, like all the others you see in cities. I didn’t pay much more attention than that.

We finished eating and decided to head off for more sightseeing. But when Robby and I went to the garbage can to throw away my lunch bag, I heard a strong voice ask, “There isn’t any food in that bag, is there?” It was the man who had been watching us. I didn’t know what to say. “No, I ate it already.” “Oh,” was his only answer, with no shame in his voice at all. He was obviously hungry, couldn’t bear to see anything thrown away, and was used to asking this question. I felt sorry for the man, but I didn’t know what I could do.

With the hot dog in his hand, the homeless people was too choked to speak.
