(2016·贵阳市适应性考试)Many years ago, where I was planning to visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register (收款机),

　　stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend's. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.

　　I wrote him and his wife a thank­you note for helping me. Soon afterwards, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.

　　Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In the late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I'd left the lights on all day, and the battery was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership — a shop selling cars — was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.

　　“Just how friendly is Friendly Ford？” I asked

　　and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment. When I got home, . I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say “thank you”， and it meant a lot, he said.

　　“Thank you” — two powerful words. They're easy to say and mean so much.
