A couple would like to sit together. “The only other 37 seat was next to a woman with both arms in casts（石膏）, a black-and-blue face, and a depressed emotion." 38 am I going to sit there" was my immediate thought. 39 then a deeper, quieter voice spoke, "Opportunity.”Finally I took my new seat and 40 that Kathy had been in an auto collision, and she was on her way for 41 。

When the snack of nuts and juice arrived, 42 did not take me long to realize that Kathy would not be able to 43 herself. I considered offering to feed her but 44 , as it seemed too close a service to offer to a stranger. But then I decided that Kathy's need was more important than my 45 .
