From 2 they looked like, they were going to be away for several days. One of the girls sat next to an older gentleman, who started talking with 3 .
As the train ride went on, the little girl said that they were4 their way to the children' s hospital in the city, where her sister Hayley who was badly ill was 5 treatment(治疗). Without6 more about it, the man spoke with the girl on and off during the journey.
Towards the 7 of the ride, the man started to 8 something on a piece of paper.When the train stopped at his station, he walked over to the girl's mom and handed her the paper,which actually was a9 , and said,"That's for Hayley."Then he 10 the train before the mom could say anything.
As the mom finally realized it was a check, she was very11 . Then she quickly looked up, hoping to stop the man 12 he disappeared from view, but he was already 13 .
The moment left a lasting impression on me. It made me know that acts of kindness can make a big 14 to someone. It also made me wonder about the man's story and what caused him to do this for 15 on a train.
