The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries(食品杂货) ,saving us from (使我们免得)having to walk long distances from where we live.
I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after (不久之后)that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.
People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness(善举/友好的行为) from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened (增强)our faith (信心)in humanity(人性) as a whole(整体来看). And it has influenced us to be more mindful of(adj.考虑到/记着/想着) ways we, too, can share with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting (adj.永久的;永恒的).
66. Why was the bike so important to the couple?
A. The man’s job was bike racing.
B. It was their only possession.
