阅读理解.

     Many years ago,when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver,I was driving to my parents'
home in Missouri for Christmas.I stopped at a gas station (加油站) about 50 miles from Oklahoma City,
where I was planning to stop and visit a friend.While I was standing in line at the cash register (收款台),
I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.
     I took off,but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car.I 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 thank-you note for helping me.Soon afterward,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 late afternoon I returned to my car
and found that I'd left the lights on all day,and the battery (电池) 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,so when I got home,I wrote them a note to say
thanks.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.
