taking a box to a homeless person at night ! But I knew , in my deep heart ,that I would be safe .

　　I got a box .My parents watched as I added warm gloves , a heavy blanket…into the box until it was full ! Then , I put a Christmas card on top . It said," Even though we hardly know each other , I want to wish you a merry Christmas !” I put ten one-dollar bills inside it as well.

　　My father insisted he went there with me as it was 10 pm on Christmas Eve. I said he could drive me but he had to stay in the car. He agreed .

　　I took the box and walked towards his “house” . I called ,"Sir, I have a Christmas box for you !”

　　“Go away !” he shouted.

　　“Sir,” I repeated .

　　“Go away !” he shouted.

　　“Why ?” I asked him .

　　He walked over and I expected to see an angry face .Instead I saw two of the most beautiful , gentle, blue eyes I have ever seen.

　　“Merry Christmas!” I said.

　　“Why are you doing this?” he asked .

　　“Because you matter to me” I said . With that I gave him the box .

　　Tears came to his eyes and he thanked me .I got back to the car and watched him carry the box like it was filled with gold . I didn't want to embarrass(使困窘) him by watching him any more so Dad and I left .

　　56. The underlined word “alarmed” can best replaced by _____ .
