(2018·江西师大附中、临川一中联考)“My neighbor doesn’t speak English, but her kindness needs no translation.”
Angie Morris, an 81-year-old Canadian woman who grew up in wartime Britain and now lives in Vancouver, British Columbia, was describing how her next-door neighbor, Ms. Wing, a 68-year-old Chinese woman, voluntarily cooks meals for her every day. She called it “the ultimate home-delivery service”.
Morris’s moving, first-person narrative which was published last week by the Canadian newspaper The Globe and Mail, has gone popular,with more than 24,000 online reposts.
“I know what is inside the paper carrier bag,” she wrote. “A thermos with hot soup and a stainless-steel container with a meal of rice, vegetables and either chicken, meat or shrimp,sometimes with a kind of pancake. This has become an almost daily occurrence.”
Wing started her act of kindness when she learned that Morris had to undergo heart surgery.She took it upon herself to begin feeding her neighbor, even though the two women have no way of communicating verbally. Wing speaks only Mandarin, and Morris’s Mandarin is limited to ni hao(hello).
“So here we are, two grandmothers a world away from where we were raised, neither of us able to speak the other’s language, but communicating one way or another(with some help from technology). The doorbell keeps ringing and there is the familiar brown paper carrier bag, handed smilingly to me by Wing,”Morris wrote.
Readers and netizens around the world have been touched by this relationship that crosses national boundaries and focuses on human kindness.
“You know that most people in this world just want to live a good life,” one reader commented. “I come from old Ireland, so I can tell you a thing or two about conflict. The point is, most people are very good with big hearts and want their children to grow up safe and in places like this country can offer.”
